RUSH EXCERPT:

CARLSON: "Mark, the problem I have with this is not that she doesn’t like to be attacked by general Kelly. I get that. Or there is a disagreement. Fine. Why did demagogue like Wilson and people you saw on cable television turn this into something it’s not. Racial dispute. There is nothing racial about this. Why pretend there is."
GREEN: "I don’t think it was a racial dispute. What you have done is take a comment she made I think ill-advised, that the empty barrels thing had a racial connotation. Of course the issue is not —"
CARLSON: "Well, I didn’t —"
GREEN: "You want to go off on race. Let me finish."
CARLSON: "I don’t."
GREEN: "Kelly served with a distinction of a marine to a four star and suffered a grievous loss of his son. And his comments were mesmerizing when he focused on that. First issue why do we have a president who now has been shown again to have lied about what he said. It’s not only what he said that was untrue but what he didn’t say. The issue, of course, is four deceased green berets in battle —"
CARLSON: "You are ignoring my question like I imagine you would. You are ignoring the question entirely to give me a speech on trump."
GREEN: "He has been silent for 12 days than representative Wilson who is stellar in her community. Principal, congresswoman —"
CARLSON: "Spare me. I’m not attacking her record as member of Congress but I’m making an of course point political debate of the time you spent your life engaging in — me, too — grinds to the halt the second you start calling people racist on the basis of no evidence. It’s a conversation ender not a starter. It’s so common on the left I think it is destroying any hope of conversation. She just engaged in it. You saw it. I’m not mischaracterizing her remarks. She was followed up by the demagogues on the other channel echoing them, expanding them and attacking the guy’s family in the neighborhood as if they know anything about it. This is a piece of a lot of this behavior recently and you know it."
GREEN: "I have already said I don’t think she should have said it. I don’t think the president of the United States should have exonerated white racist saying Jews will not replace us down south as you know he did. So between the president — of course he said that, right?"
