ROB FINNERTY (HOST): And nobody wants to address this, but I address it because we are in New York City. I'm in New York City right now. This is where our studios are. Radical Muslim fanatics brought down the Twin Towers in September, 24 years ago. And now New York City might make a Muslim their mayor 24 years later. Is that progress, or have I missed something here?
VICKIE PALADINO (GUEST): No, you haven't missed a thing. What's been missing here is the fact that the age element, they weren't even around when 9/11 happened. OK? As an adult, I am here to tell you that day was beyond tragic. We're still suffering the scars from it. They don't know about it. You know, when you sit in a city council like I do, that are filled with children, this particular young man is 34 years-old, 33 years-old, and he never held a job. You — in your opening clip, you saw he was a rapper. He comes from money. I love when they curse billionaires and millionaires when that's exactly what they come from. And like I said, my city council is loaded with these radical left-wing lunatics who are going to be jumping for joy when we have to go in for our stated meeting next Monday. Am I right, Joe?
