Betrayed

---

That's wonderful. Do you have

any views on lesbian priests?

- WOMAN:
I'm not interested.

- Masturbation?

- I don't believe in it.

- Just let it be?

Just let it all hang out.

Do you believe in that statute in Arizona

that says if you get an erection

it's a felony or a misdemeanour?

You can't go around and

expose yourself to everybody.

MAN:
The welfare system

is creating generations of freeloaders.

So overexaggerated, welfare.

You're worried about a mother of eight.

If these are reborn Christians

as they claim they are,

if they took care of the underprivileged,

we wouldn't have a welfare state.

Instead of building glass cathedrals,

buying TV stations, paying off prostitutes.

If Jesus came back today

he'd never stop throwing up.

Since he's repeatedly talked about

his homosexuality on the air,

you're very quick, you know?

WOMAN:
You know what I saw

this morning that was real disgusting?

Yeah, you saw yourself in a mirror.

Why are you listenin' now?

You must have a need to be miserable.

WOMAN:
You don't make me miserable.

You see what a hypocrite

you're makin' of yourself?

You can't enjoy my show, cos you got

no sense of humour. Take a hike!

- How much did you say you weigh?

- 167.

That's insane. Your body's

supposed to be a temple, a cathedral.

You're making it a garbage disposal.

Call me up when you lose 50 pounds.

Weapons is a big business.

We fall for the old patriotic crap.

Right now, Iran is the most

hated country in the US.

We need an enemy

so we can make more weapons.

In ten years we'll all be driving

Iranian cars, the Khomeini wagon,

and goin' to chichi Iranian restaurants.

Remember what barbarians the Japs were?

IRATE MAN:

You're always doing all the speaking.

21 minutes remaining in the hour.

Hey, people, you know what

we're talkin' about tonight?

Jew-boys. Anti-Semitism, racism, hate.

There's a lotta kike-haters

among you nice Gentiles.

Let's hear from you. You're not ashamed

of what you believe in, are you?

This is Kraus. WLD, the voice of

the Midwest. 90,000 watts from Chicago.

Sickago. Whatever you wanna call it.

Hey, you know what, partner?

I'm an old Jew myself. Yeah.

Show me how brave you are, now.

Call up this Jew-boy and we'll

talk turkey right after this message.

- You're askin' for it tonight, Dan.

- F*** 'em if they can't take it.

You hate Jews because they all

got syphilis? How do you know that?

MALE CALLER:

It's in the Bible, in Genesis.

Don't tell me about the Bible.

You never read it.

A TV evangelist quoted you

the anti-Semitic parts. Take a walk!

Line two, you're on the air. What?

WOMAN:
I just wanted to say that the

Holocaust, that was a big exaggeration.

An exaggeration?

I mean, there were some Jews killed,

but that was just war.

- There were a lot of Gis killed too.

- What about the gas chambers?

WOMAN:
All that was, those Jews

had to get their lice taken off.

- It was like taking 'em to the dry-cleaners.

- Did you say dry-cleaners?

Uh-huh. You take somethin' to

the dry-cleaners, it don't hurt it any.

Sometimes it shrinks a little,

but you can still wear it.

KRAUS:
People say "How can you let

these guys on the air with all their hate?"

Short of inciting a riot, let 'em say

what they want, as ugly as it may be.

That's a free enterprise of ideas.

Bye-bye.

- We just about blew the damn board.

- Bob, what've we got tomorrow?

- Transsexuals.

- God bless America.

Good night.

No!

(GUNSHOT)

Damn you, son of a b*tch.

I'll kick the sh*t outta you.

Lighten up, Ronnie.

Boy, you got a mouth on you.

My boy and me were target shootin'.

I guess we forgot all about it.

Do you know what somethin'

like that would do to my rotor?

I didn't think you were

gonna cut this section today.

- You're supposed to clear these fields.

- Ooh, you got a temper too, don't ya?

- Maybe.

- Where you from, girl?

- Texas.

- Real cowgirl, huh?

Look, I don't need this sh*t.

I'm just trying to do my job.

MAN:
What do you get if you mix five

Mexicans, a Chinaman and five coloured?

A water sprinkler that sounds like this.

Spic-spic-spic-spic-spic-chink-

n*gger-n*gger-n*gger-n*gger-n*gger.

Give me a Colorado Motherf***er.

Yes, ma'am.

- Ever have a Colorado Motherf***er?

- Mm-mm.

He's cute.

I'm real glad I went back on the pill.

Here's your Motherf***er, ma'am.

- Taste this. You gotta taste this.

- No, thanks.

( COUNTRY-AND-WESTERN SONG)

...backs his car

into the window of the bank

and dumps the cow on the floor of the

lobby, to pay 'em back for what he owes.

- You're yankin' my chain.

- I'm not. It really happened in Crawford.

(MEN LAUGH)

- Who is she?

- I never seen her before.

She must be from the combines.

Hey, cowgirl. Buy you a beer.

- Got a beer.

- Well, I'll buy you another beer.

No, thanks.

You always like this,

or do some folks just bring it out in you?

Come on, Texas, let's go out there.

We can have one dance, can't we?

I'll keep my hands in my pockets

and I won't bust your feet. I promise.

You can take your hands

out of your pockets.

Yee-haw!

Let's get outta here.

- What's your name?

- Katie Phillips.

I'm Gary. Hi.

So, you dance with all the girls

who work the combines?

Honey, you combine girls

are the biggest thing to hit this town.

These old boys here, every year about

this time, they think it's Santa Claus.

- Texas, right?

- Texas.

It's the first time I've danced

in three years.

- Right.

- Since my wife died.

Oh, I'm sorry.

And sing of Rosa Lee

But the Yellow Rose of Texas

beats the belles of Tennessee

Old Doc Adams, if he didn't know

somethin', he'd tell you it was nerves.

These young doctors, in air-conditioned

offices, usin' all these big words...

They tell you what you got.

I liked it better the other way.

What is it exactly you do got, Shorty?

Haemorrhoids.

Howdy, Hank.

- I said howdy, Hank.

- Howdy.

I gotta go. I gotta put my kids to bed.

- I'll give you a ride.

- I'll just be ridin' with Betty J...

I think Betty Jo is gonna need the car.

Wayne isn't old enough

for a driver's licence yet.

Come on. I'll keep my hands in my pockets.

You ever seen a man drive with his feet?

- You like workin' them combines?

- Well, I used to work in a diner.

You know, waitin' tips

and pushin' their hands away.

I miss that guy.

You ever listen to that guy?

- Radio guy that got killed.

- Oh, I just saw about it on the TV.

Yeah, well, there ain't nothin'

on the radio now, that's for sure.

There's rock'n'roll.

I hate rock'n'roll.

It gives me a headache.

I suppose you like rock'n'roll?

I hate heavy metal.

That gives me a headache.

- Hey, we got somethin' in common.

- Yeah.

Hey! Hello!

Hello!

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Daddy said to bring this. I'm Rachel.

- Well, thanks, Rachel.

Daddy said to ask you to come over

to dinner with us tonight.

- Excuse me. Dinner?

- Grandma's makin' a pot roast.

A pot roast?

She makes the best pot roast

in the whole wide world.

- What does she put in it?
