	He's like, shut up!
	Shut up!
	Shut up!
	You be quiet!
	And the guy goes, you don't own me!
	Adam Couric, John C. Dvorak.
	It's Thursday, November 24th, 2011.
	Time for your Gitmo Nation Media Assassination, Episode 359-er.
	This is No Agenda.
	This is No Agenda.
	Celebrating the war holiday here at Camp Mofo in the capital of the Lone Star State.
	In the morning, everybody, I'm Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where it's Turkey Day, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	It's crackpot and buzzkill.
	In the morning.
	Yeah.
	You got a little hit at the end there.
	A little stinger in the morning to you, John, and happy Thanksgiving.
	And happy Thanksgiving to you, and happy Thanksgiving to all ships at sea and boots on the ground and feet in the air.
	And, of course, our human resources.
	Worldwide over.
	Yes, our human resources who do not celebrate worldwide.
	A lot of them are showing up in the chat room at noagendastream.com, noagendachat.net.
	You know, I'm so conditioned by this program to think of Thanksgiving as a fake holiday that Mickey was looking at me this morning.
	She had cocked her head to the side, and she's like, uh, happy Thanksgiving?
	Oh, yeah.
	You should tell her that this is not the one you wake up to and say Happy Thanksgiving.
	It's not Christmas.
	She said, we say that every year.
	I said, oh, I'm sorry.
	Happy Thanksgiving.
	It's a little thing you and her.
	I guess.
	Now I'm a douche.
	Now I totally screwed it up.
	And?
	Everybody.
	The President, this is quite amazing, actually, what has happened with this holiday.
	And we talk about this every single year.
	It's a fake holiday.
	John will give you the genesis of Thanksgiving, which we're always happy to give to you.
	But I thought the President, I thought the way he twisted this holiday into the war holiday is just fantastic.
	Because, of course, every year on Thanksgiving, what do we do, John?
	We always thank the troops.
	That's what we're thankful for.
	From my family to yours, I'd like to wish you a happy Thanksgiving.
	Like millions of Americans, Michelle, Malia, Sasha, and I will spend the day eating great food, watching a little football, and reflecting on how truly lucky we are.
	Like all elites will be doing.
	Some people are doing other things, like, I don't know, working, volunteering.
	As Americans, each of us has our own list of things and people to be thankful for.
	But there's some blessings we all share.
	What's that?
	We're especially grateful for the men and women who defend our country overseas.
	Yes.
	Now, doesn't that mean that that's just a war holiday?
	Well, curiously, it's probably more traditionally a war holiday to begin with.
	Well, it doesn't make me feel good.
	Well...
	Well, that may be the reason that they concocted this cock and bull story about the pilgrims and the Indians and all the rest of it.
	We do have a link in the show notes to a piece I wrote and rewrote a couple of times.
	I have the 2009 edition, which you can read.
	But it discusses the...
	This is actually the genesis of the nature of your name, Buzzkill.
	Because a lot of people don't get this.
	People who don't listen to this show, they're like, what a dick.
	It's Thanksgiving, man.
	Don't be such a buzzkill.
	Actually, let me take a look at the...
	There's a couple of pieces.
	Actually, in 2004, I first put this on the blog under a blog post called Bite Me.
	See?
	I love Thanksgiving, but I don't for a moment think it's anything but a somewhat phony and artificial holiday situation.
	This is our only true de facto two-day holiday.
	More than makes up for any flaws, but let's not be fooled by the pilgrim nonsense.
	The term Thanksgiving was brandished throughout the U.S. history and officially codified by Lincoln in 1863 at the behest of an activist writer, Sarah Hale.
	Before 1863, there was no Thanksgiving per se.
	But a lot of proclamation giving thanks for this and that all called Thanksgiving.
	There were virtually no Thanksgiving events from the Thomas Jefferson administration until Sarah revisited the dying idea.
	No Thanksgiving for you!
	Her rationale was that Americans didn't have enough holidays.
	The Lincoln Thanksgiving was justified as a celebration of the North's victory in winning the Battle of Gettysburg and had absolutely nothing to do with pilgrims or anything of that sort.
	That nonsense was all reverse-engineered by sentimentalists.
	Even the first supposed Thanksgiving in 1621...
	Did you throw in the suffragettes somewhere?
	I'm not going to...
	Those poor women...
	It was a three-day, one-shot party modeled after something called Harvest Home.
	It wasn't called Thanksgiving.
	Harvest Home was the end of a harvest party celebrated in parts of the British Isles.
	This party didn't happen again, in fact, until most of the invited...
	Until, I got some citation here.
	Most of the invited Indian guests to the 1621 event were later butchered by the growing population of settlers.
	Thanks!
	Hey, thanks.
	So wait a minute, we thanked them and then we killed them?
	Is that how it worked?
	Well, there's no thanks involved.
	This is Harvest Home.
	The one-documented Thanksgiving was a one-shot celebration to be held on June 20th, 1676.
	Thanksgiving was used more as a generic term for taking an ad-libbed holiday.
	There were some references to it being an occasional homage to the pilgrims now and then, but most people thought that that part was silly.
	Jefferson was particularly annoyed by the notion.
	I love this.
	Anyway, I can go on.
	It's a long piece.
	You can read it on the show notes.
	But it is bullcrap.
	It's bogative.
	It's bogative.
	Bogative is what it is.
	Listen to the president.
	He twists this thing around into crazy talk.
	To all the service members eating Thanksgiving dinner far from your families, the American people are thinking of you today.
	Yeah.
	And when you come home, we intend to make sure that we serve you as well as you're serving America.
	Hmm.
	We're also grateful for the Americans who are taking time out of their holiday to serve in soup kitchens and shelters.
	Which doesn't include the first family who apparently are going to be having a barbecue and watching some football.
	Oh yeah, football.
	He said that.
	Aaron Rodgers is playing.
	But he just said that.
	He said, I'm going to be watching football.
	Oh, but someone else is going to be in the soup kitchen.
	Making sure their neighbors have a hot meal and a place to stay.
	This sense of mutual responsibility.
	The idea that I'm my brother's keeper.
	Now, what is that idea that I'm my brother's keeper?
	Isn't it the opposite?
	Is it I am not my brother's keeper?
	No, you're a brother's keeper.
	It's a biblical thing of some regard.
	I'll be keeping your sisters, what I'll be doing.
	I've always been part of what makes our country special.
	And it's one of the reasons the Thanksgiving tradition has endured.
	Okay.
	The very first Thanksgiving was a celebration of community during a time of great hardship, and we've followed that example ever since.
	Bullcrap!
	That's a lie!
	I lie!
	I love it!
	Even when the fate of our union was far from certain, during a civil war, two world wars, a great depression, Americans drew strength from each other.
	They had faith that tomorrow would be better than today.
	We're grateful that they did.
	As we gather around the table, we pause to remember the pilgrims, pioneers, and patriots.
	Pilgrims, pioneers, and patriots, everybody.
	That's what it is.
	Pilgrims, pioneers, and patriots.
	Who helped make this country what it is.
	They faced impossible odds, and yet somehow, they persevered.
	Today, it's our turn.
	I know that for many of you, this Thanksgiving is more difficult than most.
	Wait, do you think we can move this into a campaign thing?
	Do you think we can turn...
	No.
	Yeah, I think we can.
	But no matter how tough things are right now, we still give thanks for that most American of blessings.
	The chance to determine our own destiny.
	The problems we face didn't develop overnight, and we won't solve them overnight.
	But we will solve them.
	All it takes is for each of us to do our part.
	Hmm.
	With all the partisanship and gridlock here in Washington.
	There you go.
	Partisan gridlock in Washington.
	Thanks, Prez.
	We must vote on the bill now.
	Yeah, but listen.
	It is really possible.
	But if we keep that spirit alive, if we support each other and look out for each other, and remember that we're all in this together, then I know that we too will overcome the challenges of our time.
	So today I'm thankful to serve as your president.
	You know, I've only heard this deconstruction of Thanksgiving.
	On this show!
	I'm essentially the only guy that keeps harping on it.
	And I set you up for it every single year.
	Five years in a row.
	It's like, here we go.
	It's an alley-oop.
	It's an easy one.
	Yeah, it's definitely an alley-oop, but geez.
	Luckily our listeners understand the nature of bogative events like this.
	So what's kind of interesting is that on this Thanksgiving week, there was a lot of news.
	A lot of things happened, and typically it's a very slow time.
	C-SPAN was just so interesting.
	I got a lot of just hilarious stuff, and it's the best channel on my cable box.
	And here I was, now I've got all the recording stuff set up.
	Christina came to Austin for a couple days, which was really, really nice.
	So I wanted to spend some time hanging out with her, and of course the debates were on.
	And I'm like, ah, it's going to be another bogative debate.
	Wow!
	This thing was off the chart.
	I mean, the opening montage...
	That CNN did for this was X-Factor worthy.
	I mean, it was slick.
	It was produced.
	Once you get the numbers, they get the budget.
	Next thing you know.
	This was high-end.
	And of course, the whole thing is rigged because it's paid for by the Heritage Foundation.
	The sponsors are right there.
	I'm sorry, it's sponsored by...
	Okay, so it's not advertising then.
	Whatever.
	So the whole thing is completely rigged.
	It was the national defense debate.
	So it's all about war.
	Let me just play a little bit of the opening montage.
	Just blew me away.
	Live from Los Angeles, it's the X Factor Republican presidential debate.
	If we were serious, we could break the Iranian regime, I think, within a year, starting candidly with cutting off the gasoline supply to Iran and then, frankly, sabotaging the only refinery they have.
	It's live television, and there needs to be more of a connection, so that the people who are watching television feel exactly what you're feeling.
	We're no longer simply trying to get through to the next round.
	We're now looking for stardom.
	I believe we can do a whole lot better.
	I mean, could you hear any difference between X Factor and this?
	It was the same thing.
	In fact, Wolf Blitzer, his new name is, well, of course, it's not X Factor, but American Idol.
	I'm going to call him Wolf Seacrest.
	That's his new name.
	Wolf Seacrest.
	And did you see Rick, you know, everyone's coming out and they all get their little announcement.
	They're like, hey, Wolf, hey, Wolf.
	And Rick Perry does like a gunshot at him.
	Did you see that?
	Yeah.
	It's hilarious.
	Hey, Wolf.
	Hey, man.
	How you doing?
	Good to be here, everybody.
	I didn't notice if he winked or not.
	No, you couldn't see him.
	It was from the back.
	But right off the bat, first question, I was like, oh, my God.
	Ron Paul got boned.
	They screwed him so bad.
	And I'm not sure if it was...
	I think they might have done like a pre-interview somehow.
	Does that make any sense?
	Where they might be, okay, where the first question, it's going to be about, you know, it'll be about the Patriot Act, and then Ron Paul, you might want to bring up Timothy McVeigh, because that'll really, you know, something happened, because Newt Gingrich, and they're doing it differently now.
	Now they have the split screen, and essentially they show Ron Paul's reaction to everybody.
	This is new.
	This has been done in previous debates when you're trying to humiliate somebody.
	You do this.
	And now CNN even put out a reel of Ron Paul debate reaction clip.
	They're so trying to discredit this guy.
	But so you get Ed Meese, who was a former, was he Secretary of Defense, Meese?
	No, no, he was like a press secretary.
	No, he was in the Reagan administration.
	What did he do?
	Hold on a second.
	Let's consult the book of knowledge.
	No, I've got him here.
	On May 21st, 1984, Reagan announced the intention to appoint the Attorney General to study the effect of pornography on society.
	Oh, he was on the Attorney General's Commission on Pornography, so he's a horndog.
	He's a pedo bear.
	And he came out with the Mies report and advised that pornography in very few reasons...
	He's in the Heritage Foundation, apparently.
	Well, of course.
	No, he's the chief head honcho.
	But then, you know, of course a lot of people didn't see these debates.
	They count on us to deconstruct them.
	Yeah, he was the Attorney General for Reagan for three years.
	Right, Attorney General.
	Well, that's up there.
	That's better than Press Secretary.
	Well, you know, for some reason he always reminded me of a Press Secretary.
	Is there a difference?
	It's all PR. And then, you know, I mean, I just got to play, for the people who did not see the debates and count on us to deconstruct it, this set the entire tone, and the tone is essentially, everyone is a raving frickin' lunatic who wants to just bomb the crap out of the rest of the world, except Ron Paul.
	That was basically the debate.
	Everyone was like, we gotta kill him, we need more patriots.
	At least 42 terrorist attacks.
	At least, huh?
	Huh?
	At least 42?
	When did you count these, John?
	The 42 terrorist attacks?
	I don't know what he's talking about.
	Aimed at the United States have been thwarted since 9-11.
	Thwarted?
	Is this meese?
	This is meese with this question, yeah.
	How come I throw a douchebag in there for us?
	Douchebag!
	Of course I'll do a little douchebag.
	The Patriot Act have been instrumental in finding and stopping terrorists.
	This is such a setup, though.
	And it's also bogus.
	Bogative.
	Shouldn't we make the tape...
	Should we expand the Patriot Act, Newt?
	Shouldn't we have...
	And listen how Wolf immediately goes to Newt.
	Newt knows this is coming.
	It's all set up.
	And somehow Ron Paul got trapped as just an unsophisticated media...
	A long-range extension of the investigative powers contained in that act so that our law enforcement officers can have the tools that they need.
	We need tools!
	Speaker Gingrich, only this weekend there was an alleged terror plot uncovered in New York City.
	What do you think?
	Coincidence?
	That Attorney General Mises raised a key point and the key distinction for the American people to recognize is the difference between national security requirements and criminal law requirements.
	Okay, so what he is saying here is if you're a terrorist, then we should be able to drone your ass.
	What no one goes into is actually how that's determined by the secret panel.
	I think it's desperately important that we preserve your right to be innocent until proven guilty.
	Except if we call you an enemy combatant.
	If it's a matter of criminal law.
	But if you're trying to find somebody who may have a nuclear weapon that they're trying to bring into an American city, I think you want to use every tool that you can possibly use to gather the intelligence, the Patriot Act.
	Which of those 42 thwarted attacks involved a nuclear weapon, John?
	Let me think.
	None?
	It's clearly been a key part of that.
	Which of these were actually thwarted by authorities instead of, like, people?
	None.
	And I think looking at it carefully and extending it and building an honest understanding.
	That all of us will be in danger.
	You're all going to die!
	Oh man, this guy's pathetic.
	This is not the rest of your lives.
	If you're watching right now, for the rest of your life you are in danger.
	It's not going to end in the short run, and we need to be prepared to protect ourselves from those who, if they could, would not just kill us individually, but would take out entire cities.
	All of them!
	All of them!
	Wherever you...
	If they could.
	If they could.
	But they're going to do it.
	Be afraid.
	Slave.
	So, Speaker, just to clarify, you wouldn't change the Patriot Act.
	No, I would not change it.
	I'm not aware of any specific change it needs, and I'd look at strengthening it because I think...
	Strengthening it?
	What?
	Strengthening it!
	How can you strengthen it?
	It's already taken away everybody's rights.
	No, I'm sure there's a right in there we can remove.
	I think we need to take away your right.
	The right to do this show, by the way.
	That would be top of the list.
	The dangers are literally that great.
	And again...
	I spent years...
	Literally, the dangers are literally that great.
	Really?
	Really?
	You're studying this stuff.
	You start thinking about...
	I've been studying this stuff.
	I got Wikipedia.
	One nuclear weapon in one American city at the scale of loss of life.
	And you ask yourself, what should the president be capable of doing to stop that?
	Blowing up Iran or something cool.
	How much of the 24 show did this guy take seriously?
	All of it.
	It wasn't a documentary, buddy.
	Yeah.
	And you come up with a very different answer.
	Again, very sharp division.
	Criminal law, the government should be, frankly, on defense, and you're innocent until proven guilty.
	Uh-huh.
	National security, the government should have many more tools in order to save our lives.
	Tools!
	Congressman Paul, I suspect you disagree.
	Now, listen, I don't know why he brings up Timothy McVeigh.
	It must have been some kind of, like...
	Oh, I see what you're saying.
	You know what I'm saying?
	It's like, all of a sudden...
	And Newt, you can see, it's a split screen.
	He's going...
	I got him!
	I got him!
	Tell us why.
	I think the patriarchy is unpatriotic because it undermines our liberty.
	I'm concerned, as everybody is, about the terrorist attack.
	Timothy McVeigh was a vicious terrorist.
	He was arrested.
	Why did he come up with it?
	Why did he say that?
	It plays so into Gingrich's hands.
	Terrorism still on the books, internationally and nationally, is a criminal, is a crime, and we should deal with it.
	We dealt with it rather well with Timothy McVeigh.
	Why I really fear it is we have drifted into a condition that we were warned against because our early founders were very clear.
	They said, don't be willing to sacrifice liberty for security.
	Today, it seems too easy that our government and our congresses are so willing to give up our liberties for our security.
	I have a personal belief that you never have to give up liberty for security.
	You can still provide security without security.
	Sacrificing our Bill of Rights.
	So the setup is there, and now we go back to Gingrich, which, by the way, no reason he didn't mention Newt Gingrich, which he should have gone to another person on the podium.
	He goes back to Gingrich.
	I want to bring others in, but do you want to respond?
	Respond, why?
	Respond to what?
	He did nothing.
	He didn't bring up his name.
	That's not the rules, because this is a setup.
	Timothy McVeigh succeeded.
	Bing!
	Slammed.
	I think there is a mole in the Ron Paul camp.
	I think someone advised him to bring up Timothy McVeigh, and I think there's a mole.
	I think somehow he got screwed on this deal.
	No, yeah, okay, let's go over a couple of things.
	First of all, I have never heard Ron Paul in any of these debates bring up Timothy McVeigh under any circumstances for any reason.
	Let alone twice.
	Let alone twice, out of the blue.
	When it's not really about Timothy McVeigh.
	And the fact that Gingrich, who's...
	You know, he's not a dummy, but he's not the funniest guy in the world.
	He'd think of a comeback like that.
	No.
	A one-liner.
	And it was passed right back to him by Wolf Seacrest.
	So I actually would assume one thing, is that the pre-briefing, whatever it was, or whatever the mole was, however this was set up, Paul...
	who is a kind of a free thinker, may have actually dropped the ball because they wanted to get a little debate going between the two guys, and they may have done a pre-rehearsal that was going to be different than what it was, and Paul failed to mention Gingrich's name, but the script still had it going back to Gingrich.
	Exactly.
	So Blitzer just says, fuck it.
	I'm going to go right with the original script.
	We're going to go right back to Gingrich instead of somebody else.
	Anybody could have said something.
	It didn't have to be Gingrich.
	Nope.
	And why does Gingrich get all this time?
	Because he's the biggest hawk up there?
	Or the next Hitler?
	Or whoever he wants to be?
	Yes, correct.
	So they throw it back to him, and then he has his one-liner, boom, ready to go.
	Yeah, this was rigged.
	They really are out to get Ron.
	Ron Paul is the most dangerous man in America.
	Yep, you're right.
	But the thing is, he's not going to...
	I actually am in somewhat agreement that they just can't muster enough numbers because of all the negative publicity that they throw at him and all the, you know...
	They actually smear him, essentially, as a nut.
	And so I don't think he has much of a chance.
	But they're so afraid because, you know, a lot of people are re-registering as Republicans.
	A lot of the youth, especially like in California where, you know, they might try to get enough people to vote him in as the candidate in the primaries.
	Which, I mean, I'm going to re-register as a Republican to vote for him.
	Me too.
	By the way, you have two weeks left.
	I know.
	On Monday, we have to do our driver's licenses first.
	We're doing that Monday, and then we're immediately...
	Because when you do that, you register as a Republican right there on the spot.
	Anyway, so there's this fear...
	And, in fact, I have a bunch of Ron Paul clips, so after you're done with these, I want to go over a couple of them, where he was sitting down with the editorial board of the Des Moines Register, who are a bunch of obvious internationalists who care little about this country, and they're more or less interested in making him look like an idiot.
	What I wanted to do, and I'll just play a little bit of this, and maybe it's an end-of-show clip because it's rather long.
	This is Bob Schieffer, Face the Nation.
	Did you see Ron Paul on that?
	This is another one.
	Bob Schieffer, who's...
	I didn't realize what a dick he is.
	Went after Ron Paul.
	Ron Paul's pushed back on a lot of this.
	But the main message was the...
	You're an idiot.
	You're a freaking idiot.
	And he's treating Ron Paul like a child.
	And he's getting in his face and he's just like...
	And Ron Paul's like, not having it.
	Like, no.
	No, that's not true.
	No.
	This was from...
	I guess this was...
	What was this?
	Last Sunday.
	Last Sunday, yeah.
	So that's why we didn't have it on the show.
	But you've got to see the whole interview.
	But just listen to a couple of clips here.
	Hold on.
	Face the Nation with Bob Dooshbag Sheever, everybody.
	I'm playing it straight from the YouTube group.
	CBS. Oh, come on.
	Here we go.
	And good morning again.
	We begin this morning with Congressman Ron Paul.
	The polls, Mr.
	Paul, suggest that you are now in the thick of it out in Iowa.
	What does that mean?
	I think Ron Paul could win.
	Yeah, I think so, too.
	And this is what nobody wants to talk about.
	Well, it can't happen.
	That's why Schieffer's been called in to rake him over the coals.
	...in a statistical tie with Romney, with Cain, and with Mr.
	Gingrich.
	So, I want to ask you some questions now that you're...
	Don't you listen to what he's saying!
	You can't be first.
	Yeah, he's like...
	I gotta ask you some questions, son!
	Sounds like a district attorney.
	Yeah, you can...
	You sound like this with Romney.
	Aren't you supposed to be, like, impartial or objective?
	Yeah, neutral.
	This is your neutral media at work.
	The frontrunners, we need to know more about your positions on the issues.
	And I want to start with foreign policy.
	How much more do we need to know?
	The guy has expressed himself with more candor than anyone.
	Now, what Bob Schieffer means is I have to discredit you on national television.
	Here we go.
	Posted on your website and elsewhere some of the things you have said in the debates suggests that you believe that 9-11 happened because of actions that the United States took.
	So, do you hear what he said?
	You have to listen very closely, but what he is essentially trying to do is trying to say Ron Paul is a 9-11 truther and a whack job, and that it was an inside job.
	It's like he says, oh, it suggests, and all these, like, fuddy-duddy words.
	Is that correct?
	Well, I think there's an influence, and that's exactly what, you know, the 9-11 Commission said.
	That's what the DOD has said, and that's also what the CIA has said, and that's what a lot of researchers have said.
	And just remember, immediately after 9-11, we removed the base from Saudi Arabia, so there is a connection.
	That doesn't do the whole full explanation, but our policies definitely have an influence, and you talk to the people who committed it and those individuals who would like to do us harm, They say, yes, we don't like American bombs to be falling on our country.
	We don't like the intervention that we do in their nations.
	So to deny this, I think, is very dangerous.
	But to argue the case that they want to do us harm because we're free and prosperous, I think is a very, very dangerous thing.
	Now Schieffer's not going to have any of this.
	Now he's going to, right off the bat.
	Because it's not true.
	Well, I would question the import of what some of those commissions found that you cited there.
	What is he saying?
	I would question the import of the 9-11 commission?
	Really?
	Oh, that was just crap.
	They don't know what they're talking about.
	I question that.
	But you, sir, you're a nut job.
	Basically, what you're saying, Mr.
	Paul, is that it was America's fault.
	9-11 happened, and it was our fault that it happened.
	No, I think that's a misconstruing of what I'm saying.
	So polite.
	Such a nice guy.
	Because America is you and I. And we didn't cause it.
	The average American didn't cause it.
	But if you have a flawed policy, it may influence it.
	When Ronald Reagan went into Lebanon, he deeply regretted this because he said if he'd have been more neutral, those Marines wouldn't have died in Lebanon because the policy was flawed.
	Here he comes.
	Interrupt him!
	Interrupt him!
	Sheeper!
	Interrupt him!
	Quick!
	He's making sense!
	Stop this!
	It won't be worth anything.
	So I'm saying policies have an effect.
	But that's a far cry from blaming America.
	I mean, in America, you're supposed to be able to criticize your own government without saying you're on America.
	And that's what the implication is.
	But what you are saying, it was the government's fault.
	That basically is what you are saying.
	Let me move on from something else.
	Oh, what a douchebag!
	But Paul isn't having it.
	He says, no, hold on, I've got to finish something here.
	The policymaker's fault.
	The policymaker's fault.
	Contributed to it.
	All right.
	Contributed to it.
	Let me ask you this.
	Am I correct that your idea of how to discourage Iran from building nuclear weapons is to be nicer to Iran's leaders?
	What an asshole!
	I can't believe this!
	That's so...
	By the way, this is the clip that O'Reilly played.
	Oh, really?
	And then they went after Ron Paul.
	I have a clip that...
	I mean, do you want to continue or just leave this for now?
	I mean, it's so entertaining, really.
	I just can't believe that this is the news media.
	No, I think play this part, but it just makes me irked.
	I mean, this guy...
	You know, I always thought Schieffer was a journalist.
	A journalist.
	I always thought he was like a normal guy.
	I didn't realize he's like an ideologue creep.
	He's on the payroll, man.
	These people have no shame.
	No.
	This guy should be ashamed of himself.
	Where's the douchebag call out here playing?
	Oh, excuse me.
	Douchebag.
	I mean, what is wrong with these people?
	Well, no, I think to be, you know, we have 12,000 diplomats.
	I'm suggesting that maybe we ought to use some of them.
	But just think of how we prevented a nuclear war with the Soviets when the Soviet missiles were put in Cuba.
	We didn't say we're going to attack you.
	Kennedy and Khrushchev talked and they made a deal.
	You take your weapons out of Cuba, we'll take them out of Turkey.
	That's the kind of talk that I want.
	I think the greatest danger now is for us to overreact.
	And this is what I'm fearful of.
	Iran doesn't have a bomb.
	There's no proof.
	There's no new information.
	Yeah, by the way, he's so right about this.
	Because you look at that International Atomic Energy Association.
	Report, and they literally say, we have no evidence, but we got some other countries said so, so it must be true.
	And this is already being projected in the media as, they've got the bomb!
	A recent report, and for us to overreact and talk about bombing Iran, that's much more dangerous.
	We got the...
	Now, Paul nails him on this.
	I love this.
	We got the Libyans to get rid of their nuclear power and their nuclear weapons, and look at what happened to them.
	So, we've got to understand that.
	Mr.
	Paul.
	Interrupt just for a second.
	No one has suggested in the U.S. government that we are going to bomb Iran.
	What they have said is that we're going to impose very tough sanctions.
	You are against sanctions on Iran.
	Is that correct?
	Yeah, because sanctions are the initial step to war.
	I was opposed to all the sanctions for 10 years in the bombing that was occurring with Iraq, as I said it would lead to war.
	And he was right.
	But if you say nobody's suggesting it, why don't you listen to the debates?
	I mean, listen to some of the other candidates.
	Mr.
	Paul, may I correct you?
	I am listening to the debates.
	Oh, shut up, slave.
	I am listening.
	I am an elitist.
	I am listening.
	These are not government people.
	These are just candidates.
	No.
	Well, there have been some candidates who've talked about that, including Mr.
	Romney.
	The United States government has not said we're going to bomb Iran.
	I mean, that's just a fact.
	No, obviously they haven't said that, but the implication is nothing is off the table.
	You've heard those things.
	Well, yes.
	Well, yes.
	Let's move on.
	Let's move on, because you nailed me.
	I don't want to talk about it.
	What idiot douche douche douche douche douche bag!
	Unbelievable.
	Oh yeah, it just keeps on going.
	So anyway, it's in the show notes.
	359 or not in the show notes.
	Yeah, it's just...
	People can't see through this guy and these shows.
	I mean, I'm sure the...
	The thing that's annoying is that this type of show is mostly for the liberal audience, and the liberal audience is the ones that should be listening to Ron Paul because he's really more along their lines insofar as rights are concerned.
	Did you see that Ron Paul got mic-checked?
	Did you see that?
	He got mic-checked?
	Yeah, he got mic-checked, and his response was beautiful.
	It looks like time's running out.
	Yeah.
	Mic check.
	Mic check.
	We are the 99%.
	We are the 99%.
	We will be heard.
	We will be heard.
	There are criminals on Wall Street.
	There are criminals on Wall Street.
	We walk free.
	We walk free.
	There are protesters in jail.
	By the way, pretty weak mic check, actually.
	There is something wrong.
	There is something wrong.
	With this system.
	With this system.
	We are the 99%.
	We are the 99%.
	We are the leader.
	We are the leader.
	So he's just sitting there, waiting calmly, and then he goes to the microphone.
	You feel better?
	You feel better?
	And then of course he says, hey, I'm with the 99%.
	Are you nuts?
	What are you talking about, idiots?
	Yeah, but it's so obvious that 99% is now, you know, this whole thing is so rigged.
	But I still like the mic check thing.
	It's just, you know, douchebags are using it.
	And they can't get the crowd to go along with it.
	Like, you can't understand what they're saying.
	Well, they've mic-checked almost everybody now.
	Yeah, Obama got a mic-check.
	I'm sure you saw that one.
	Yeah, that was a good one.
	He seemed completely befuddled, like he never heard of this or what it is.
	He's never been briefed on it because he was completely deer in the head.
	Why?
	What's going on?
	Who is this mic you speak of?
	I had a callback.
	I love...
	He's so lame.
	He's like, what?
	What?
	What?
	Hold on.
	Is my mic not on?
	Is this thing on?
	You can't understand him.
	And then he starts going like, oh, no, no, it's okay.
	It's all right.
	Hello, everybody.
	It's okay.
	Sasha and Malia doing this all the time at the dinner table.
	That's all right.
	That's okay.
	That's all right.
	That's okay.
	But then later in the speech, this is the piece that...
	Because this, of course, was shown everywhere.
	And he's like, oh, he got mic checked and he handled it so well.
	But then later in the speech...
	After his staff told him what it was.
	Yeah.
	They slipped this into the teleprompter.
	Families like yours, young people like the ones here today, including the ones who were just chanting at me.
	Chanting.
	Chanting.
	You're the reason I ran for office in the first place.
	Yeah, that's why I ran for office.
	Are you chanting?
	For the Buddhists here.
	Well, the guy's out.
	You sent me an article about that, actually, on the Wall Street Journal.
	I'm sorry?
	You sent me an article from the Wall Street Journal which basically called for Obama to quit.
	Yeah, this is like kind of a meme.
	Yeah, which we have in the Red Book now for over a year.
	Yeah, for four years ago.
	We predicted before he was even president.
	That's right.
	We said he'll become president and he'll quit.
	This is how it's going to work.
	It didn't take long to come up with that prediction.
	No.
	It was about a year or two years ago, I think.
	No, a year and a half, maybe.
	I had to look it up.
	So, anyway, Ron Paul was in Iowa because he's dangerously close to winning the thing.
	And, of course, they've gone off the deep end on trying to character assassinate Mitt Romney for his ad.
	He's dyed his hair black.
	Did you see that in the debate?
	Yeah, I know that, which is, you know, he's a very vain looking guy.
	This is the reason, I think maybe less of his Mormonism and more of his kind of, he's a weird character.
	But anyway, he did an ad campaign where he put in Obama saying, if we keep talking about the economy, we're going to lose.
	But Obama was quoting McCain.
	Right, he twisted it around, right.
	Well, it was deceptive.
	But according to Lawrence O'Donnell, the guy who does one of those MSNBC pieces of crap...
	Who now, by the way, is completely anti-Obama.
	It was...
	No, no, that's the other guy.
	You're thinking of Rattigan.
	No, no.
	No, no.
	Lawrence O'Donnell?
	That guy is an Obama bot.
	I thought he was the one that turned.
	Hold on.
	No, no, no.
	Now you keep talking.
	He's a huge Romney hater, a Republican hater.
	He's just one step away from being Ed Schwartz.
	He's very similar without the shouting.
	And I'll give you an example.
	I have a liar's medley here where he bitches about this deceptive ad...
	Saying it was lying.
	There was no lie involved in this ad.
	It was deceptive.
	And so the mainstream media didn't call him a liar or anything.
	But O'Donnell goes nuts.
	And I had to clip.
	This thing went for five or six minutes.
	So I had to clip it down to about a minute.
	And I can assure anyone I did not add.
	Sometimes when I do a clip, I'll emphasize something a guy does by repeating it.
	There's not one bit of that in here.
	All I do is take stuff out, and this is what this maniac sounded like.
	We showed you the Romney lie last night by the liars at the Romney campaign.
	When you spend every day of your life lying about your first name, if Willard will lie about that, then nothing, Willard says, probably feels like lying.
	If there is a pathological liar in the presidential campaign, it is Willard Romney.
	He was asked about his lying today, but the question was phrased, of course, in the limp-brained language of the campaign press.
	The smiling liar used a lot of words.
	A question to ask Mitt Romney and his despicably sleazy campaign staff is, why did you lie?
	Lie is the word campaign reporters are afraid of using face-to-face with lying candidates.
	Lie is the word the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the mainstream media will never use with the constant lying by liars.
	Lie An inveterate liar.
	The word lie to describe a lie.
	They know a liar when they see one and hear one.
	Mitt Romney and everyone working for him should, should be ashamed of themselves, but of course they know no shame.
	They have now become professional campaign liars.
	The lying Romney team.
	Liars, liars, liars, liars.
	By never calling them liars.
	The lying in the campaigns.
	The lying on their own.
	Lying.
	Of calling a lie a lie.
	Be afraid to lie.
	And now, to all the sleazy liars at the Romney campaign.
	Wow.
	Now I understand...
	Sounds like a 12-year-old.
	Liar, liar, liar, liar.
	Now I understand why when they did the introductions at the debate, Mitt Romney was like, this, that really is my real name.
	Did you hear that?
	Hold on a second.
	Yeah.
	Hold on.
	I have it here, I think.
	He said that is my first name.
	I have it.
	I have it queued up here.
	Hold on.
	To represent a great state.
	And we're here to ask you for your support, your blessings.
	I have this cool new hookup.
	Here we go.
	I'm Mitt Romney, and yes, Wolf, that's also my first name.
	So we listened to that, so apparently his first name is Mitt Romney.
	He's Mitt Romney Romney.
	It's what he said.
	He said, my name is Mitt Romney, that is my first name.
	So his first name is Mitt Romney, so it is.
	It's Mitt Romney Romney.
	Mitt Romney Romney.
	That's what he said.
	And by the way, if you call yourself something, is that your first name if it's not his legal first name?
	Or has it been renamed Mitt?
	We don't know.
	I don't care.
	I don't care either.
	Willard would not work.
	No, it's like Gaylord Fucker.
	Yeah.
	That's why Gaylord changed his name to Greg.
	It's okay.
	I think Mitt is like...
	What kind of name is that anyway?
	Well, we don't laugh about names here at the No Agenda Show, particularly the names of people who support our program, and we have some people to thank on this.
	This is the only reason I'm thankful today.
	This is a true Thanksgiving, is people who supported the show.
	Indeed.
	Indeed.
	And we have a lot of messages or segment in the middle because people felt this Thanksgiving was a very verbose one.
	Well, this is good for these types of days.
	Yeah, we did have our normal...
	We actually ended up with our normal contingent of...
	Of three executive producers and three associate executive producers, we want to thank everyone who helped us do this show.
	Gerald Lenski in Memphis, Tennessee, 36667.
	You deserve more support from the 99%.
	Happy Thanksgiving in the morning.
	And Robert Goschko, Sir Robert Goschko, as a matter of fact, from Sherwood Park, Alberta, one of our Canadian nights, 360, which is a 360, this show 360, well, we'll give them 360 next week.
	We'll give them next week, yeah.
	On Sunday.
	John and Adam in the morning seems there'll be a slow week with a U.S. holiday.
	I'll kick in from Gitmo Nation, back bacon.
	Yeehaw!
	And I get some karma from my MILF, also.
	Ha, ha, ha, ha.
	Ah, now it truly is a great Thanksgiving.
	And he wants to give all the boners out there a douchebag.
	So Adam Johnson in Plymouth, Minnesota, our third executive producer at 33333.
	Hello, John Adam and Plo.
	Enjoyed listening to your show for the past couple of years and have been a $5 a month donor since the past December.
	Since I was donating, I feel like I have been getting a trickle charging of karma every month where eventually it led me to getting a new job back in Java development.
	With this donation, I want to give back for everything you two do as well as reduce my douchebag level, a minimum of 33% plus or minus 3%.
	If you would, I would ask that Karma Shot be directed at all the great people I work with in my old job.
	They work way too hard just to get by.
	Thanks for all the hard work you two do every day.
	It keeps me sane on my drives and to work Mondays and Fridays.
	Absolutely.
	Here's to all the people you work with at Karma Shot.
	You've got karma.
	Nice.
	That's very kind to hand out some karma like that.
	Yeah, it was a very generous thing to do.
	Sir Dean Bertram, who's out In the middle of nowhere, in Gitmo Nation, palava sauce.
	What is that?
	Where is that?
	I don't know.
	Palava sauce?
	After another month of just getting by, I had to switch currency.
	So it was maybe in Ghana.
	Oh.
	I went to my contribution in Ghana CDs of 419 GHC, which turns out to be $254.69.
	Thanks, sir, Dean.
	And don't drink the water.
	Tom Wilson coming up with a birthday shout-out later in the show, $220.56, which marks his birthday was on the 22nd, and 56 is his age.
	Jonathan Dalrymple of Hemel Hempstead, Hurt for Sure.
	Hurt for Sure.
	John and Adam, your remark about how people shouldn't expect something you don't pay for to continue to exist.
	Truck a cord with me, so I'm giving you some cash to show my appreciation.
	I run Float-Write Limited, a two-man iPhone and iPad app development shop based in the UK. We have clients around the world and are currently looking for new projects, so please get in touch if you need an app.
	Aside from the business, I'm also traveling around the world, currently in Malaysia, and have been on the road for seven months.
	So some karma would be greatly appreciated.
	Thanks for all the shows and dedication.
	Absolutely.
	You've got karma.
	Our executive and associate executive producers for show 359, you can go to dvorak.org slash na, channeldvorak.com slash na, noagendanation.com, click on the donation button, or you can go to noagendashow.com and there's a button there too.
	Yeah, or if you like, I can program you.
	dvorak.org slash na.
	Hey Mick, did everything go okay?
	Everything okay?
	Yeah?
	Okay, great.
	Thank you, darling.
	Sorry.
	Production meeting.
	A couple of PR initiatives that are out there.
	We've got a couple of drone domain names now pointing to NoAgendaShow.com, DroneKillNation.com, DroneSecurityServices.com, which could be our new gig, John.
	Drone Security Services.
	Yeah, I like that.
	Yeah, I think that could be pretty good.
	You know, we're actually on a hill here, and I think I could fly a drone out over the lake.
	Oh, I'm sure you could.
	That'd be cool.
	And ilovedrones.com, which of course we all love drones.
	So ilovedrones.com, now also pointing to noagendashow.com.
	Whitealqaeda.com, which I'm sure will become useful in the not-too-distant future.
	We'll see some white Al-Qaeda.
	And then a programming note, the noagendanation.com store has received some software upgrades and has moved to store.noagendanation.com.
	Once again, the inventory levels are up, additional shipping options, and there's now email receipt confirmations for shipping as well.
	And they've got some, what do they have here?
	They had some pretty interesting stuff.
	And oh, you can get a special deal if you enter the coupon code BOGATIV. You'll save 15% off your next t-shirt.
	Let me see.
	They had some interesting products I saw.
	Hold on a second.
	What do we have?
	The government protecting and serving the shit out of you.
	Keep calm.
	We'll print more.
	There's a UK shirt which says freak out and break stuff.
	No, that's good.
	And lanyards.
	I don't know about the lanyards.
	Do those sell?
	I don't get why anyone would buy a lanyard.
	Why do you want a lanyard?
	It's like backstage maybe at a concert or something.
	I did see one cool lanyard.
	In fact, I usually throw these out.
	I go to these trade shows and they give you lanyards.
	And then you go to some booths and they have their lanyard.
	You've got to get another lanyard because you're not lanyard up.
	So I found one that I don't have it.
	Unfortunately, I had to run downstairs to see what the brand was.
	So it didn't get them much good there.
	But it has a little button on it.
	And you push the button and the lanyard gives a light show.
	Oh.
	Blinks and winks.
	Yeah.
	And it's actually quite whoa.
	When I first saw it when somebody was wearing it, I said, wow, now this is more like it.
	Drawing attention to yourself as you're roaming around a trade show with a lanyard that blinks.
	Essentially like...
	Look at me!
	Slice here.
	Like aim your sword here to chop off my head.
	That's good, those lanyards.
	All right, we of course appreciate the support from our executive producers and our associate executive producers and our PR executives.
	That's very, very kind of all of you.
	And of course, you can go out and do something very important.
	Please consider propagating the formula.
	Our formula is this.
	We go out, we hit people in the mouth.
	New World Order.
	Say it with me now, everybody!
	Shut up, slave!
	So, one of the...
	Let's return to Ron Paul so it doesn't sound like the Ron Paul show.
	One of the more interesting moments that took place this week was the gassing of the students.
	You mean the pepper spray?
	The pepper spray of the students at UC Davis, which has now become a meme where they've made mats of the guy.
	Oh, it's a Photoshop bonanza.
	Even we have album art with it, yeah.
	Yeah, we have one post on the blog, devort.org slash blog, showing some of these artworks that have been created of, you know, the guy in this pepper spraying Thomas Jefferson.
	Little kids.
	Jesus.
	He's got him spraying him in the face.
	And, you know, little kids, penguins.
	He's great.
	It's actually quite funny.
	But meanwhile, of course, Fox, who's...
	Who are idiots.
	Who are idiots.
	They've now come out, and of all people, your friend, your milfy, gorgeous newsreader, the lawyer, Megan Kelly.
	Oh, wait a minute.
	My Megan?
	My hot little number?
	That's one hot milf, baby.
	That one?
	Yes.
	She says that pepper spray is food.
	The chancellor of UC Davis and the police chief there are both being called upon to resign.
	Here now, attorney and Fox News anchor Megan Keller, you see her at 1 p.m.
	each weekday.
	First of all, pepper spray, that just burns your eyes, right?
	Right.
	I mean, it's like a derivative of actual pepper.
	It's a food product, essentially.
	I don't care.
	She's hot.
	I don't care.
	Let's spray her with this stuff.
	Like five kids had to go to the hospital.
	What do you mean?
	Yeah.
	Oh, no.
	That stuff is nasty.
	And the stuff coming out of that guy's can was incredibly weird looking.
	It was so red.
	You know, I think what was so weird about it, it was the nonchalant stance the guy had.
	Yeah, that's what was so weird about it.
	I'm just spraying the fence.
	It's a walk through the park.
	Yeah, I'm just pepper spraying my plants here.
	Nothing to see here.
	Move along.
	Everything's good.
	It's all fine.
	It was crazy.
	And they're calling for everyone to resign there, and of course no one will.
	Well, the douchebag chancellor who sounds a lot like Arianna Huffington.
	Oh, really?
	Now throws everybody under the bus.
	She's from Greece, that's right, because she did a speech And in the audience, I don't have audio of it, but in the audience, someone was holding up a sign saying, oh, remember 1973, which of course was the anti-austerity protesters, the stone-throwing youth in Greece?
	And she says, oh, yes, no, I remember.
	I was there.
	I was part of the 1973 riots in Greece.
	Total set-up.
	When you've had students at school pepper sprayed, do you then go to a speech by the Chancellor and then hold up a sign about 1973 in Greece?
	No!
	It was set up.
	Yeah, it was a shill.
	Total shill.
	Disgusting.
	She's a disgusting person.
	Yes.
	And they, you know, the University of California, I've tried to explain this to other people, they don't really understand why this is so, this is major within the system that this happened, is that the University of California system, which is a quasi-state-run university, they have taken, they've accepted so much government money and they also kind of don't want to even educate Californians anymore.
	They want to educate mostly people from overseas, especially China.
	Asia, yeah.
	Where they can gouge them for extremely high tuitions for their prestigious degree.
	They cannot afford this bad publicity because it's not good for their marketing.
	It's bad for business, absolutely.
	It's bad for business.
	And so this woman is being...
	She's going to be drummed out, but they're going to make an example of her, but they've got to now save face because who knows who's, you know, people...
	It's like...
	Football players aren't signing up to go play for Penn State.
	A lot of them have already bailed out and are going to other schools because of the scandal.
	This is just as bad.
	And then the university knows it's a problem.
	They can't have this kind of negative publicity.
	Did you see that Reggie Love resigned from the White House?
	No, I didn't notice.
	You know who Reggie is, right?
	Yeah, we talked about him on the show once before.
	Remind me, though.
	Okay, so Reggie Love is the first buddy, I think is his nickname.
	He is the body man for the president.
	And his entire job is to, yeah, essentially...
	He's the valet.
	Right, but just like I have suspicions about Huma Albudin, who is Hillary Clinton's body man, there's a lot of rumor and innuendo about these guys being lovers, Obama and Reggie.
	Now, he has only one more year to go in this term.
	Why is he leaving now?
	And the excuse is, I want to go back to school.
	I want to go back to college.
	Really?
	Really?
	You're one door down from the most powerful man in the universe.
	Yeah, that makes sense.
	But ESPN, which is an ABC-owned network, so we know it's Ministry of Truth, did an interview with him, and there are some very weird things that are being said that I think we should deconstruct.
	It's kind of a funny title, but for an entry level...
	This is George Stephanopoulos.
	The job body man to the president is hard to beat.
	The lucky guy, and they all have been guys so far, is counselor, valet, gatekeeper, and first buddy.
	And for the last three years, Reggie Love has done the job for President Obama.
	Did you hear that?
	First buddy?
	What the hell is that?
	First buddy.
	That's...
	Like all body men, he avoids the press.
	But now that he's leaving the White House, love is peeling back the curtain in this ABC News exclusive with Rachel Nichols of our sister network, ESPN. Reggie Love has been a constant presence, just feet away from President Obama since we first met him during the 2008 campaign.
	Love gave us a mini tour of what has since become his trademark, the things he carries.
	This is like a lint brush, toothbrush, scope, cough drops.
	Now he has all these things in his bag, but they're in plastic baggies.
	So he carries around a toothbrush and scope in a plastic baggie for the president?
	Couldn't they have like a Louis Vuitton, like a toilet caddy or something?
	It's weird.
	It's very, very weird.
	Sudafed.
	Love studied in the mailroom of Obama's Senate office, then moved on to the campaign where he famously bonded with the future president over a shared love of sports, notably basketball.
	They were both rookies to presidential campaigns, learning their jobs along the way, and learning from each other.
	I've hipped him to...
	I've hipped him.
	You hear this?
	I've hipped him.
	I've hipped him.
	He's hipped him?
	Yeah, he's hipped him.
	You made him hip, too.
	He's hipped him.
	Yeah, I know.
	I understand what it means.
	He says that.
	Well, the whitest black guy in the universe, listen, gets better.
	Aretha Franklin and John...
	He's like, let me think of another...
	Oh yeah, John Coltrane.
	Coltrane.
	And he, in turn, has downloaded Jay-Z and Lil Wayne.
	Now, it's not Lil Wayne.
	It's Lil Wayne.
	L-apostrophe-I-L. Yet our president is so hip...
	He said Little?
	Little Wayne.
	Thank you for Little Wayne.
	That's so lovely, that Little Wayne.
	And he downloaded it.
	What?
	From BitTorrent?
	So that I'm not a complete fuddy-duddy.
	Well, you are a douche because it's Lil Wayne, not Little Wayne.
	So are Obama.
	One historic election and three long years of work later, Love is packing up and saying goodbye to one amazing first job.
	And then this door right here, it leads to the Oval, one of the four doors that the president can enter or exit through.
	And I have to say, Reggie sounds a little effeminate.
	You know, it's just he's, you know, I don't know.
	I don't want to accuse anyone of anything, and I don't care, but it's just of note.
	He showed us the tiny office he occupied just four feet away from the Oval Office, his modest home base for long 18-hour days and some nights.
	Mm-hmm.
	No, it's not bad.
	Who's been sleeping here?
	I don't even know what the joke is there and if I did I probably couldn't repeat it.
	A laugh shared with the president whom love calls a mentor.
	A mentor who in return refers to love as a younger brother.
	What do you call the president when you're with him?
	Mr.
	President in the presence of others and if it's a less casual scenario then I would just say sir.
	Sir is your more casual thing?
	Uh, yeah.
	He's the president.
	Yeah, thank you, sir.
	May I have another?
	What does he do that drives you crazy?
	Okay, now listen to this.
	This is very important evidence, and then I'll stop.
	And what do you do that drives him crazy?
	I'm 28, 29, stubborn, and think that I know things that I may not know the answer to.
	The chat room says, I call him daddy.
	Horrible, horrible chat room.
	He's like, you should take my advice.
	He's like, I got elected president, you should listen to me.
	The guy loves to ride around with the AC off like in the summertime.
	And I get hot, I start sweating.
	I'm like, it's 80 degrees in this car.
	I'm going to like pass out.
	So this is very important evidence that the president is a reptile.
	He likes keeping it 80 degrees in the car with the AC off.
	Only a reptile does that.
	Sorry, this to me is proof.
	I don't need to play any more of this interview.
	He's a reptile.
	I was wondering where this was headed and I wasn't expecting that.
	Come on, man.
	He's a reptile.
	Who else would do that?
	You've got this huge limo.
	It's hermetically sealed.
	It's 80 degrees and it keeps the air off.
	Who does that?
	Who does that?
	I don't know.
	Only a reptile.
	If I have air conditioning, I use it.
	Yeah, a chameleon.
	I don't like it to be 40 degrees in the car, but...
	And, you know, he's cold-blooded.
	He's a reptile, and he likes it warm.
	You know, he probably has, like, some sticks and stuff to, you know, to crawl around on in the limo.
	Some leaves to munch on.
	Guy's a reptile.
	Telling you.
	Proof.
	Proof positive.
	It's kind of second half of the show.
	David Icke should be sent these clips.
	David Icke is listening.
	Trust me, he's all over this.
	He's writing a book about it.
	Alright.
	You want a shut up slave moment?
	Go for it.
	Mickey, we went through this, right?
	And she had two violations.
	Violations in California.
	She took a right-hand turn when she shouldn't have, and she had tinted windows in the front.
	And she gets this letter.
	Why don't they start pulling off some of the black gangsters who are drug dealers for those tinted windows and some poor woman?
	She's hot, so that's why.
	It's like, this is the MILF law.
	Hey.
	And by the way, Mickey felt very comfortable with having kind of tinted windows because there's so many idiot douchebags in L.A. that it's nice not to be seen.
	Or at least they can't see, you know, everything.
	So, dear California driver, I'm going to paraphrase here.
	We understand that you may believe you're a good driver, and yet your driving record is much worse than the average California driver.
	Two violations here.
	While you may be a good and safe driver most of the time, your record reflects at least momentary lapses in driving judgment.
	At highway speeds, a moment of carelessness...
	Wait a minute.
	What's tinted windows got to do with your driving?
	Nothing!
	Or taking a right hand when you can't do it between four and seven.
	Your record reflects at least momentary lapses in driving judgment.
	At highway speeds, a moment of carelessness can become a tragedy.
	Good caring people who make careless decisions while driving can cause injury or death.
	Now, in our effort to urge you to drive safer, we are offering you a choice.
	You ready for your choices?
	You can choose to prevent further action from DMV by avoiding additional traffic convictions and by not causing any crashes.
	However, if you choose to continue your unsafe driving, the penalties will increase and eventually lead to probation, suspension or revocation of your driving privilege!
	We believe you are capable of making a change to become a safer driver, but it's up to you to do so.
	If you do not want to change, your driving will continue to present a risk to yourself and other road users.
	If you want to change and become a safer, more responsible driver, you can.
	We hope you will decide to change, but the choice is yours.
	Is that the most despicable thing you've ever heard of?
	It sounds just like...
	Yeah, well, welcome to California.
	No!
	Adios, mofo!
	So she's just going to stiff him for those fines?
	No, no, she paid the fines.
	What are you talking about?
	What?
	Did you just Skype me?
	I just got nothing to do after the show.
	I'm just getting this stuff out of the way.
	I do some bookkeeping during the show.
	Your nails bookkeeping.
	A little pedicure.
	A little pedicure.
	More Mickey stories.
	I'll get me good.
	So, no.
	And by the way, she had to pay a $600 fine.
	For what?
	Oh, don't.
	For turning right on a no right turn.
	Washington State has done this for years.
	These cops really don't do any policing anymore.
	That's why they're so incompetent when they try to do policing.
	They beat people up.
	They're just mostly a money-gathering operation for the coffers of the corrupt state government.
	Well, check this out.
	So they said, if you don't pay the $600 by Monday, and this was two weeks ago, it'll be $900.
	So she's like freaking out.
	She's like, I'll call the system, I'll give them my credit card.
	I'm like, okay.
	So she calls in, and she's like, and I can see her face is just getting...
	She's like, the system is broken.
	They said my payment wasn't accepted.
	And due to budget cuts, they don't have anyone to help me at this time in the automated system.
	Because you can't get someone on the phone.
	That's because they don't want you to pay.
	Oh, it gets better.
	So then she sends a check.
	And guess what?
	They cashed the check and they took the $600 off the debit card.
	And you can't get anyone on the phone to get your money back.
	Wow.
	Yeah.
	Holy crap.
	Instead, you get this nice little letter which gives you a choice.
	A-holes.
	Adios, mofos in California.
	Adios.
	We went shooting two days ago.
	Yeah, who has the guns?
	You know the guy who has the Hasselblad?
	Mickey's photography buddy out here?
	Yeah.
	The digital Hasselblad?
	He's a gunman?
	Gun guy?
	Gun nut?
	No, he's from Texas, man.
	He's from Texas.
	I don't mean that in the majority.
	No, no, no.
	We're having a drink and talking about...
	Want to go shooting?
	Yeah.
	Is that a drink?
	Let's go shooting.
	Yeah, he says, want to go shooting?
	I'm like, well, maybe tomorrow.
	He says, let me show you.
	He goes to the car.
	He comes back.
	He's got a Glock 9mm, a SIG, and my favorite new gun, which I'm going to purchase, the Judge.
	Have you seen this?
	The Judge.
	It takes shotgun shells.
	Check it out.
	The Judge.
	Just Google gun the Judge.
	It's a revolver.
	I think it takes a.45 or like a Winchester shotgun shell.
	And this thing is awesome.
	It's like, adios.
	Oh, jeez.
	It's like a big, it looks like a flare gun.
	It's a cannon.
	That's what I'm getting.
	Yeah, it holds five shotgun shells.
	It's called the Judge.
	Is that cool or what?
	What is the caliber?
	It's a.410.
	Right.
	Did you actually shoot a.45, too?
	Did you change the barrel?
	No, no, no.
	It shoots a.45 right out of it.
	I shot.45s and the shotgun shell.
	Oh, wow.
	Well, the.410 is a small, yeah.
	Oh, it's small.
	It's not huge.
	Who came up with this stuff?
	Texans.
	Smart people.
	I'm like, oh, yeah.
	And Mickey's like, no, I want the SIG. I want a SIG in my purse.
	Yeah.
	You guys are going to get in trouble.
	You should have seen my daughter shooting the judge.
	That was an amazing experience as a dad.
	It's like...
	As my kid, shooting bullseyes with the judge.
	That was awesome.
	I love Texas.
	These guys got it.
	They understand life.
	I'm looking at this thing.
	It'd be fun to shoot.
	What kind of a kick, though?
	It wouldn't have much of a kick.
	It has a little kick to it.
	It's about the kick of a Glock, about the same.
	But it's loud.
	Really loud.
	And it's got the shotgun shells in it, I'm sure.
	Even the.45 is pretty loud, too, actually.
	And it's reasonably accurate.
	Well, with the shotgun shells...
	Here's a picture of some shots this guy took.
	I guess he's got...
	Like a bird shot in there.
	I'm not sure.
	At 12 feet, it's just like a...
	It's a hole.
	It's just a mess.
	Exactly.
	Because, you know, I believe in shotguns for home defense.
	This is the ultimate.
	Put some bird shot in there.
	Don't be closer than 12 feet or I'm going to rip something off you.
	Yeah.
	But it was so fact of the matter.
	And seven yards apparently is pretty accurate.
	It's alright.
	It's good.
	It looks pretty intimidating.
	Yeah, I would think.
	It even says that it has the judge inscribed on the barrel.
	The judge.
	I'm trying to find the manufacturer of this thing.
	It's a Taurus.
	Taurus, yeah.
	Which is not a...
	Taurus International.
	Yeah, which is not a supreme gun manufacturer, but it's just so beautiful.
	It's a funny look.
	It's great.
	Look, if I'm in front of you and I'm holding the judge at your face, you're going to think twice about what your next move is.
	I would walk back slowly.
	Very slowly.
	Hey, man, you're cool, man.
	That's all right.
	Yeah, that's all right.
	You're good, man.
	You're good.
	Oh, they got one chambered for a 454 casool.
	What's that?
	Holy mackerel.
	What's the casule?
	That's that bear gun.
	Oh, I need that.
	I shot a casule shell once, and it is unbelievable.
	What was the name of that?
	The gun itself was called a fireball.
	That's a good one, too.
	I like that.
	When the casule goes off, it forms like, I'd say, probably a 10-yard...
	A circular fireball.
	Nice.
	It's huge.
	I mean, the fireball is unbelievable.
	That's excellent.
	I like that.
	Yeah, that'll drop a bear.
	Cool.
	Not too many bears in Texas.
	Well, not the normal kind of bear.
	Well, no, we got the biker bears.
	Yeah, those guys.
	Did you see the TSA, the congressional report on the TSA, which apparently it was released?
	I'm looking at it right now, as a matter of fact.
	This is unbelievable that they did this.
	One of our listeners, I didn't see it until he sent it in.
	Neither had I, and I'm so happy that one of our producers did that.
	A decade later, a call for TSA reform, a joint minority staff report that came out on the 16th and the 112th Congress, the 16th of November.
	And it just takes the TSA to the...
	Essentially, nothing works.
	It says they suck.
	It says they shouldn't even be in business.
	They should be taken out.
	Well, unfortunately, that's not entirely true.
	I mean, the whole report is saying, you know, they've got too many people.
	It's a big bureaucracy.
	It's completely lame.
	None of your stuff works.
	The stuff that might work is in the warehouse.
	It's not even deployed.
	And with all these people, you don't even have enough people to man the naked body scanners.
	The drug sniffing machines don't work.
	Nothing works, even though it even says the...
	The results of the testing are confidential, but we all know they don't work, which of course on this show we discussed almost about a year ago now.
	Yeah, this equipment doesn't work.
	It really, it's just the most damning report ever.
	But then at the end, they have their recommendations and it made me want to throw up.
	The recommendations are like, oh, we have to get biometrics.
	This report seemed to be oriented toward pushing biometrics.
	Biometrics, all about biometrics.
	Let me just read a couple of things from it before you go on with that.
	I just want to, this one, with more than 65,000 employees, this is not Department of Homeland Security, we're talking about TSA. It's larger than the Department of Labor, the Department of Energy, the Department of Education, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the State Department combined.
	Do you see that even though they have 65,000, that they have hired 113,000?
	Yeah.
	They've rotated almost twice that amount.
	Yeah, no, people bail out, they take the training, and then they leave.
	Yeah, no, this report is damning.
	We're going to have it available on the show notes.
	359.nashownotes.com.
	You got the PDF right there.
	But then, I mean, the recommendations are just really disgusting.
	Oh, biometrics.
	Get your biometrics.
	Biometrics.
	We need more biometrics.
	It's wrong.
	But you read this report.
	I mean, we could basically spend an entire show just reading this report verbatim.
	And you'd just laugh.
	Yeah.
	2004-2006, TSA ultimately spent more than $39 million to produce and deploy explosive trace detection portals known as puffers.
	The puffers.
	As part of its passenger screening operations.
	While TSA procured 207 puffers, it only deployed 101 nationwide because TSA belatedly discovered that the puffers were unable to detect explosives.
	Which is all they were for.
	It's too funny.
	It's just too funny.
	Advanced imaging technology devices allow screeners to see beneath a passenger's clothing to identify abnormalities, like a huge penis, requiring further screening.
	In early 2011, to replace the puffers, TSA began installing 500 of these devices at a total cost of more than $122 million.
	In September 2011, TSA purchased 300 additional devices.
	In November, TSA announced plans to complete deployment of 1,000 of these devices, and by end of 2011.
	By 2013, TSA estimates the total cost to taxpayers will approach approximately $500 million.
	Despite TSA's great investment in this technology, it remains unclear whether the AIT would have detected the weapon used in a December 2000 underwear bomber incident.
	Additionally, Homeland Security Newswire reported in March 2011 that a TSA covert test of the machines at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport resulted in the AIT machine's failure to detect a concealed firearm.
	Half a billion dollars.
	This is crazy.
	That secret report and stuff like that.
	Yeah, of course they do.
	By the way, I went into a puffer machine when they had them.
	Yeah, me too.
	I thought it was great.
	Yeah, it felt kind of cool.
	You didn't have to take your shoes off and you got in there and it gave you a nice massage.
	Yeah, puff me down a little lower.
	Puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff, puff.
	It was hilarious.
	It's unbelievable.
	It seemed like a dumb thing from the get-go.
	I can't believe we missed that report.
	I had no idea it came out.
	And then there was, in USA Today, a report that Senator Susan Collins, on Wednesday apparently, repeated her call for an independent study of the radiation from the new X-ray scanners.
	And she said she was disappointed that Pistol told another committee a week later that he would rely on an inspector general study rather than conducting another study.
	One of the senators, one of her constituents daughters suffered a miscarriage two weeks after passing through a full body backscanner machine using advanced imaging technology.
	Hello.
	Hello.
	What does that tell you?
	Who knows what?
	These things aren't calibrated.
	No.
	It's like you're getting fried.
	And they're run by a bunch of boneheads who don't care if they bump into them or whatever.
	Getting fried, man.
	But there's nothing...
	And they're standing by.
	I mean, these TSA guys should think seriously about standing by these things.
	And especially that one, that RAPISCAN that's wide open.
	It's not like a little...
	It's not like an enclosure.
	It's just two big black boxes.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	That thing doesn't look safe.
	And what was the...
	What was that...
	That was kind of funny.
	The...
	That new psychological...
	Oh, right.
	The psychological profiling.
	Profiling.
	It has an acronym.
	Yeah, the acronym.
	Let's see if I can see it.
	SPOT. SPOT, right.
	But there was something really funny about what they said there in SPOT. Well, it doesn't work.
	It says, TSA's failed screening passengers by observation techniques, SPOT program.
	SPOT program trains TSA screeners known as behavioral detection officers, BDOs.
	It goes on, GAO reported that a scientific consensus does not exist on whether behavior detection principles can be reliably used for counterterrorism purposes.
	And it goes on and on saying this doesn't, it's just a waste of money.
	Yeah.
	There was something funny, though, and I can't remember.
	It resulted in just stupid questioning that was useless.
	That's essentially what the...
	Thus far, this program has been one of TSA's largest failures.
	According to GAO, TSA never scientifically validated the list of behaviors underpinning the program, never determined whether the techniques could be applied in an airport environment, and never conducted a cost-benefit analysis program.
	Instead, the review that DHS conducted was to determine whether SPOT is more effective at identifying passengers who may be threats to the aviation system and More of a threat than random screening would.
	And it goes on and on.
	It's just crazy.
	Just crazy.
	We have this program, the assessor program.
	And then we have this debate where all these idiots on stage, except for Ron Paul, are all saying, this is great, we need more of this, this is perfect, excellent, more, more, more, like the Israelis do it, more!
	While some type of behavior detection is necessary to a risk-based security scheme, TSA's current implementation of Spot is a failure by almost any standard and must change to incorporate an intelligent interactive component.
	Yeah, by getting an intelligent person to do it, perhaps.
	Well, they said in the paragraph just above that, that they just, unfortunately, rather than employing several highly trained transportation security personnel to observe in question selected high-risk passengers, the demonstration project employed a large bureaucratic ensemble of TSA officers who expended an unnecessarily lengthy time performing meaningless interviews with all passengers, regardless of risk level.
	So what's your favorite color?
	Hey, how you doing?
	What are you wearing?
	If you could be a tree, what kind of tree would you be, man?
	I mean, unbelievable.
	And Gingrich wants more of this.
	I mean, really, I thought maybe The Onion had put this report out.
	I said, this can't be real.
	This can't be real, but it's real.
	It's the actual report.
	U.S. House of Representatives.
	Yep.
	The author is...
	Oh, here's interesting.
	I love doing this.
	The author of the document is Shant...
	I wonder if that's the person who sent it to us before I give you the name.
	Let me see if this person pops up on the book of knowledge.
	Nope.
	Shant Boyajian.
	And Shant has a LinkedIn profile.
	Professional staff member at House Committee on Transportation Infrastructure.
	He looks like he's 12.
	He works for Micah, probably.
	Micah's a guy who's really against the TSA. Office of Oversight and Investigations.
	That's Daryl Issa.
	He's the corrupt of the two, but he's against the law.
	So it's the real deal.
	He also has a Facebook page.
	Brother.
	What did he tweet?
	I don't know if he has a tweeter.
	I'm not sure he does.
	He has no post to show.
	He just has a holding page.
	Shant.
	Hey, Shant.
	Good job, Shant.
	Ha ha ha.
	Oh, what a land we live in.
	What a land we live in, my friend.
	It's just great.
	So Ron Paul was being interviewed by the Des Moines Register, who are a bunch of douchebags from the way I could tell, from what I could tell.
	I took a few clips.
	These are only a few of, like, I don't know, I must have made a thousand clips.
	And...
	There's a couple of them that aren't in here, which I'll get to as we speak, but just to get you an idea of the tenor of this question and answer, every candidate has gone in there and they've been treated with civility.
	Ron Paul was grilled.
	And he handled it very well.
	But every once in a while, he'd snap back at him about something.
	And I don't know if they're going to get their endorsement based on this sort of response.
	This sort of behavior.
	This sort of behavior.
	But play the Ron Paul on the Undeclared War just to get a taste of how this interview went.
	You have to kind of listen hard because the questioners weren't very well mic'd.
	Hold on a second.
	Okay, I'll crank it up.
	But, you know, we give trials to people like Adolf Eichmann.
	You know, Israel gave them a trial.
	We gave trials to all the Nazi war criminals.
	Can you think of the height of anger at the war criminals that participated in the Holocaust?
	We give them trials.
	But if we'd had the opportunity to take them out during the war, we would have done it.
	Probably.
	If it was declared war, it certainly is different than when you don't have a declared war.
	Well, you said you supported the authorization.
	You're talking about after 9-11.
	Yeah, that was the reaction.
	It was limited authority.
	That does not give authority for the drone strikes that you're objecting to now?
	No, they're not bombing anybody.
	They're not being charged with participating in 9-11.
	Well, but we've declared war on terrorists.
	Who did?
	The United States.
	Who?
	When?
	I'd like to see the document.
	And terrorism isn't...
	Terrorism is nothing like criminality.
	Terrorism is a tactic.
	And they want you to understand, think you're in a war atmosphere, then they can violate your civil liberties.
	They can pass Patriot Acts and do anything they want.
	Because the conditions are right when war is going on, they can undermine your liberties here at home.
	So, no, I think it's...
	Very dangerous.
	That's just a concocted term to generate enough fear to get the people in the Congress to capitulate.
	If you don't agree with it, then you're un-American.
	You're un-constitutional.
	You don't care.
	You're weak on national defense because you want to defend the Constitution.
	So I think it's wrong.
	Yeah.
	Wow.
	He's the only one who says that.
	Everybody else, oh, let's do more patriotic.
	We're at war against terrorism, which is a tactic.
	True, true, true, true, true.
	What do you mean the war on drugs?
	They have to go to the pharmacy and get drugs for different things.
	We should have a war on these drugs.
	Yeah, we should have a war against big pharma drugs.
	Absolutely.
	So the guys are all douchebags, and the classic example where Paul actually gets upset with the staff, and some guy chimes in.
	You can just barely hear him.
	But play the Ron Paul on drone assassinations, and this is another little episode where he's talking to this editorial board.
	We have a government now that is known that we have endorsed torture.
	We've rejected defense of habeas corpus.
	We have endorsed assassination by our presidents.
	One person deciding which Americans can be assassinated?
	And nobody's saying anything?
	With drones?
	However, drones, and even when they kill a 16-year-old boy, happens to be the son of a guy that wasn't very nice, but he was never convicted of anything, never tried, no charges made, and the American people aren't saying anything.
	We should be outraged over this.
	I mean, it is...
	If we accept this without saying anything, we're in big trouble.
	And that is why the rule of law is so important.
	I am...
	You know, that to me is very, very discouraging.
	Were these guys all over the drones the whole time?
	Do they think it's great?
	Yeah!
	Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to play Win, Lose, or Drone!
	That's right, come on down!
	We've got two reporters from the National Register here to play.
	They are brand new candidates.
	Let's see them bitches run as it's time to play Win, Lose, or Drone!
	They'll be the season opener for our game show.
	Not to belabor the point, but there's another one that I thought was some music, because I haven't actually heard him do this little bit on republicanism.
	And the guys are again blasting him for one thing or another.
	They don't want it.
	They want to come home.
	They see no future in this, and that is why they give me the support overwhelmingly.
	So are you ruling out a third party around yourself?
	Yeah, I'm not doing that.
	I'm not planning to do anything like that.
	Why?
	I don't want to.
	I just don't want to.
	Well, why shouldn't there be a third party?
	Because of what I just described.
	Because it's a losing adventure.
	You probably wouldn't have me in here.
	Would you have me in here if I was running on a third party right now?
	You wouldn't be talking to me.
	Well, a lot of Republicans say you don't uphold a lot of Republican viewpoints.
	I think it's the funniest thing in the world.
	Take a look at the Republican platform.
	They talk about personal liberty, balanced budget, limited government, strong national defense, free markets.
	I'm the best in all of those.
	I'm the one that wants to balance the budget.
	I vote against all their spending.
	I care about personal liberty, all the things they talk about.
	And then they say, I'm not a Republican?
	I mean, anybody buys into that, they're not listening, because I'm closer to the Republican platform than...
	Any of the others.
	So they're Republicans in name only?
	Is that what you're saying?
	Well, they don't follow the platform or what Republicans profess to believe in, as I do, and they should be called on it.
	Hell yeah.
	I love that guy.
	And when, of course, these guys, well, you know, I mean, these guys were just pathetic.
	Yeah.
	But it's important, right?
	They were internationalists.
	They didn't want, you know, they were, they had to, they were all knee-jerk, gay marriage stuff.
	It was just the same old crap.
	You know...
	Let me switch gears a little bit.
	We had some major squirrel events in this past week, and the most despicable thing was this New York Lone Wolf...
	Exactly as the director of the FBI described, they would be exactly the same way.
	But they did something.
	Bloomberg came out with a press conference.
	And they did something.
	So, first of all, the guy didn't do anything.
	He was drilling holes in a pipe and had his neighbor, who was, of course, working with the feds, help him.
	Because the guy couldn't even pay for the drill bits.
	And this guy's been working with him for like, I don't know, like...
	What was it?
	Like nine months or something?
	Something crazy like that?
	Yeah, I know.
	And by the way, there's a couple of very sketchy things.
	They say in 2010, you know, he started writing for TrueIslam1.com, which was registered in October of this year as a brand new domain name.
	So he wasn't writing this in 2010 on TrueIslam1.com.
	Go ahead and look at the Whois record.
	That's a lie.
	It's just a lie.
	The whole thing is fake.
	The suspect was a so-called lone wolf.
	Motivated by his own resentment of the presence of American troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
	Self-radicalized.
	As well as inspired by Al-Qaeda propaganda.
	Oh, propaganda!
	John, are you inspired by...
	Because, you know, if you're inspired by Al-Qaeda propaganda...
	What propaganda are they talking about and who's been inspired by?
	What is it?
	TrueIslam1.com.
	Al-Qaeda propaganda.
	Inspired.
	And then President Newt Gingrich will then no longer give you military rules and tools.
	He was not part of a larger conspiracy.
	Oh, funny, because he was actually indicted under conspiracy laws.
	Was he not, John?
	Yeah, this has got a lot of people kind of scratching their heads.
	Can you be a one-man conspiracy?
	I mean, does anyone know what the definition of a conspiracy is?
	Two or more people that are planning something, are conspiring, which is what conspiracy is all about.
	Can you conspire with yourself?
	What is he, a psycho?
	Has he got a split personality?
	Has he got a mouse in his pocket?
	Or is he just happy to see us?
	We continue.
	He represents exactly the kind of threat FBI Director Robert Mueller and his experts have warned about.
	Coincidence?
	I think not!
	As American military and intelligence agencies have eroded Al Qaeda's ability to launch large-scale attacks.
	So we're at this press conference, and of course we've got the guy.
	The guy, by the way, you see him at the docket, he's shaking his head like, this is so bogus, man.
	What is this lame stuff I've been pulled into?
	I don't know, who knows why.
	He's just been picked off the street just to do something, maybe set up the Republican debate, or God knows why.
	But then, here's what the feds did just to make the media event that much better.
	The police also constructed a duplicate of an explosive device that the suspect built, and then designated it in a way that he intended to use his weapon, and we wanted to show you a video about the resulting damage.
	Now let's all watch the video.
	Oh, there's a car.
	Okay.
	Oh!
	Oh boy!
	That's frightening.
	So they show an explosion that the guy didn't do!
	They built the bomb!
	Am I insane?!
	What is going on here?
	Unbelievable.
	And by the way, the roof blows off, whatever.
	It's not like the whole building in front of it blows down.
	They should have made it bigger.
	Yeah, they should have done a real good job.
	We built a duplicate of the thing the guy never built.
	Yeah, we built a duplicate of something he never built, and here's what would happen if it had actually gone off.
	He's a bad person.
	It's all associative, of course.
	Yeah, well, it's total propaganda.
	And by the way, you know, pipe bombs are nothing new to American history.
	They're all over the...
	I mean, they've been used against banks.
	It's our culture.
	They've been used against enemies, companies you don't like, unions have used them.
	I mean, it's a bomb.
	It's just a crappy...
	It's a horrible device, but it's been...
	I remember when I was a kid, a couple of pipe bombs were found in Berkeley.
	That's what we do.
	You're a bank.
	Now it's terrorism.
	A conspiracy.
	So you don't have to deal with it.
	You just throw them in Gitmo and, you know, throw away the key.
	This poor guy's screwed.
	There's also some rumors going around that this is all part of it because there's got so much overhead on the Department of Homeland Security that they've got to find something for people to do.
	And so now they're going to start registering pipe No.
	Yeah.
	You watch this.
	You watch this happen.
	They're going to find some, so plumbers are going to have to be licensed and they're going to have to register their pipe.
	And they have to, yeah, they have to do biometrics and they have to go through security scans so they can get some pipe.
	Yeah, so people can, you know, if there's any pipe, it will be known where it came from.
	And don't you dare in a bar say to a girl, hey, I want to lay some pipe.
	Don't you dare say that, because that's going to be bad.
	But there was another squirrel event, and this was so funny.
	This is, and it's too long to play.
	It's actually from up your neck of the woods.
	It was on, I think, a Bay Area station.
	They found a hacker who was actually, he looks like a fed, and there's no doubt about it.
	It's a really scary look, and he has a t-shirt on that says, Hacker.
	Just so you know, he's wearing dark shades.
	He lives in the backwoods somewhere.
	And this hacker says that he can hack into the emergency alert system and create a war of the world's fake event.
	And so there's a couple things of note.
	One is he has half of one arm.
	His right arm is...
	I don't know if it's a birth defect or if he lost his arm, but he has a stump below the elbow, which just makes him look that much more ominous.
	But he also calls himself something, and I'm just like, okay, could you please, why don't you just put stamp Fed on the guy's forehead?
	Listen to this report.
	The ABC7 News I-Team has learned meantime that some of the same people who launched the Occupy movement are now considering a plan to occupy the airwaves.
	Oh yeah, a giant.
	Oh yeah, this is dangerous.
	And by hijacking radio and television stations, they could create a nationwide panic.
	The I-Team's Dan Noyes is here now.
	Dan, we're not giving away any secrets here, are we?
	No, this information is out there on the internet.
	Internet.
	It's on the internet.
	We've got to shut down that evil internet.
	You know, it's good to know what their next move might be.
	The aim for these activists would be to broadcast their own message across the country.
	It sounds incredible, but after talking to engineers and to those who oversee the broadcast industry, it looks like it's possible.
	Deep in the Sierra foothills, down a long country road, a computer expert's been working on a plan.
	Just call him Jake.
	The potential is that you could hijack all radio and TV stations across the country.
	Now again, the guy is sitting in his chair with his shades on, with a t-shirt that says Hacker.
	Jake calls himself a hacker.
	He has the t-shirt and a year and a half in federal prison to prove it.
	With the screen name Secret Squirrel, Jake was convicted of...
	Come on, man!
	Are you doing these reports just for me?
	His screen name, John, is Secret Squirrel.
	I mean, please.
	This is almost insulting.
	...causing damage to a protected computer, hacking into his former employer's system.
	But the conviction was reversed on appeal because of insufficient evidence.
	Right, after he turned to the Fed.
	That's what happened.
	He then became a Fed, and he's like, all right, son, time to get out there, time to do some PR. You've got to talk about being hackers.
	His new project would exploit security gaps in the nation's emergency alert system, or EAS. There's no authentication.
	There's no encryption.
	There's no passwords.
	There's nothing that is required to send what would appear to be a valid message.
	Dad, what's wrong with the telly?
	Jake is taking inspiration from what's become a popular film among activists.
	V for Vendetta.
	Good evening.
	This is so...
	It's like...
	I'm speechless.
	I'm just speechless by this thing.
	A little more.
	A rebel takes over a totalitarian government's TV system.
	Fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words.
	They are perspectives.
	Perspectives.
	Jake's plan almost sounds too simple.
	He's written a software program to generate those familiar squawks you hear that activate the emergency alert system.
	This is only a test.
	He has figured out the authorization codes and radio frequencies from documents published by the government online.
	Oh, no.
	All he has to do is drive to a location, gear an EAS receiver, and take out his gear without being spotted.
	Take out his kit.
	I would then play the tones on my laptop, they get transmitted by the radio, I then play my audio message, and then I just...
	As long as it does, like, listen to No Agenda, I'm okay with it.
	Pack everything up and walk away.
	Listen to No Agenda.
	Pretty much the only security is these really goofy baud rates.
	There's even a YouTube video from the annual hackers convention, DEF CON, that shows step-by-step how to take over EAS. And we're sending alert tones now.
	Is that fair?
	Feasible at all?
	Yeah.
	Absolutely feasible.
	Absolutely.
	Bill Ruck is a former engineer for...
	Anyway, it goes on and on and on.
	It's in the show notes, 359.nashownotes.com.
	And then they actually bring in this woman who teaches media at some school up near you.
	And she's like, ooh, I would love it if it happened.
	It would be great.
	It would just be like War of the Worlds.
	Oh, it would be so cool.
	Of course, it wouldn't be good, but ooh, it would be fantastic.
	She's like creaming her panties over it.
	What is she?
	What is her problem?
	I don't know.
	And then we had a squirrel event in the skies.
	And it wouldn't be like War of the Worlds, by the way.
	No, not at all.
	War of the Worlds was done as a legitimate radio play with plenty of disclaimers at the beginning.
	They didn't try to do that.
	No, it was totally...
	The whole thing, it's a fed setup.
	It's like, turn off your television.
	It's got an anti-internet message.
	Yeah, anti-internet.
	It's got anonymous in there.
	Anonymous.
	And later in the report, he says, yeah, I talk to anonymous every day.
	Yeah, every day.
	Sure he does.
	I'm in close contact with him.
	But at the very end of the report, it's like, well, we've decided we shouldn't do this right now.
	It's not a good idea.
	So they go through seven minutes of report, and at the end, it's like, well, we're not really going to do this.
	I just want you to know we can do it.
	Because I'm Secret Squirrel.
	I've got the hacker t-shirt.
	Be very, very afraid.
	This is what happened over the skies over Gitmo Nation.
	This was pretty funny, actually.
	Yeah, 6132.
	We're at 180 knots.
	10,000.
	Can we leave the frequency for a minute?
	We're going to try to contact dispatch.
	The captain has disappeared in the back, and I have someone with a thick foreign accent trying to access the cockpit right now, and I've got to deal with this situation.
	Alright, so how would you respond if that came down to air traffic control?
	I'd scramble the jets.
	Gee, funny, because they didn't.
	61-32-8, heading 360-0, and I'm just going to do it 200.
	I don't have about 12 miles there, but...
	Okay, heading 360, we'll get back to you, it's shit.
	That's affirmative.
	This is the FO. The captain disappeared in the back, went to use the restroom, and what I'm being told is he's stuck in the lab, and someone with a big horn accident has given me a password to access the cockpit, and I'm not about to let him in.
	So what happened is the captain went to take a dump and then he got stuck in the bathroom and he was pounding on the door and then some guy said, well, what's up?
	He said, well, here's the password to the cockpit.
	Go up there, give him the password and tell him that I'm stuck here taking a dump and you can't land with just the first officer.
	You got to have two up front.
	So the guy goes, okay, I'm Akbar.
	I don't know what he says, but I don't know what the password was.
	And the first officer's like, the guy's got a foreign accent.
	I'm not letting him in.
	He's got the password.
	I'm not letting him in.
	And were the jets scrambled?
	No.
	And what's the point of this whole process where you have a password that is used specifically for this sort of thing not being accepted just because the guy has a foreign accent?
	I don't know.
	You tell me.
	I mean, why would you have this protocol?
	It's a protocol, obviously.
	We don't know about it until now.
	But it's a protocol that was executed as per the protocol, and then it was refused.
	The password is Allah Akbar.
	You know...
	But the fact that there was no scrambling of jets blows me away.
	Yeah, that is weird.
	No, it's just...
	The whole thing was a fiasco.
	It was just classic.
	Yeah.
	And if the guy was some sort of an evildoer, you know, the public is the ones that take care of this nowadays.
	It's not these government guys.
	You know, they just slam a guy with a fire extinguisher in the head.
	Yeah, and where's the air marshals?
	Yeah, no, the whole thing is...
	And why wouldn't the stewardess go up there and give the password?
	Why is he just telling some stranger?
	The stewardess doesn't have the password.
	No, but he would have given it.
	If he was going to give it to any stranger that walks up to the bathroom saying, Hey, hey, hey, you're taking too long in there.
	Hey, man, I'm taking a dump and I'm stuck.
	I think the whole thing may have...
	I don't know.
	No, I think this was pretty real.
	I'm suspicious about any of these things.
	It may have been a drill.
	Maybe that's why jets weren't scrambled.
	No, it sounds pretty real to me.
	In fact, one, you can't really hear the audio, but the air traffic controller even said, you should get that thing down on the ground as fast as you can, which is like, that makes no sense.
	Wait, go and crash into the airport?
	The whole thing is just completely stupid.
	I'm going to show myself old by donating to No Agenda.
	Imagine all the people who could do that.
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fun.
	Yeah, on no agenda.
	In the morning.
	We do have a lot of people to thank today, and many of them have written lengthy notes.
	Okay.
	So we'll start now.
	Here we go.
	Sir Michael Miller from Tiburon, California, $160.10.
	He added a zero, but this is for John's Thanksgiving explanation.
	Below was the first hit on Google.
	In 1621, there's blah, blah, blah.
	They shared it.
	I got this, my information.
	He just reiterates what I said earlier.
	Very good.
	And so we can, I think we covered it.
	Yeah, we appreciate it.
	Sir Michael.
	Bradley Carrier in Lexington, Michigan, $125.
	He's got a karma success story for everyone in Gitmo Nation, donated a few weeks ago and got some karma for his wife before she went to see the eye surgeon about some vision problems she was having.
	We were told that she'd probably need a surgery that would leave her blind for six weeks during recovery.
	Fortunately, with luck and some no-agenda karma, she beat the odds and is on the mend after a few outpatient treatments.
	I didn't...
	Asked the last time, so I donated, so I please get an official de-douching, and I start with a de-douching, and then a douchebag call-out for his non-donating boner friend Nick Wilson and Jim Pyle.
	You've been de-douched.
	And Nick Wilson and Jim Pyle.
	Douchebag!
	There you go.
	Thanks for making the greatest podcast in the universe!
	That's my best sound effect.
	Peter Bennett, Brooklyn, Ontario.
	Hello, John and Adam from Peter and Gitmo Nation, Great White North.
	I'm not helping you with the proper pronunciation of my name, Bennett.
	You just turn it into a bogative bit.
	Value for value amount tickles me that it's an uninteresting natural number.
	1-2-4-0-7.
	That's right.
	It's the most uninteresting number in the book of knowledge.
	It's the most uninteresting number in the world.
	Yeah.
	Which we have to put it on the donation site.
	Yeah, right.
	Uninteresting number.
	Uninteresting number donation.
	The most uninteresting number.
	Yeah.
	I'm compelled to donate because we already celebrated Thanksgiving up here, so you don't have to.
	I don't need karma.
	I mourn the loss of my boner status, so I don't need a dedouching either.
	Keep making the best podcast in the universe.
	Robert Holmes in Newburgh, New York, $123.21.
	Sean Thompson in Ackworth, Georgia.
	Hi again, John and Adam.
	Donating 1-1-2-1-2-1 for the 11-22-11.
	Also, my birthday is 11-25.
	And you will get a birthday call out, and I may have some karma for my startup, ElectroInventions, E-L-E-K-T-R-O, ElectroInnovations.
	Still working on the financing to get the thing kick-started, I guess.
	Yeah.
	You've got karma.
	Couple of $111.11 donations from Patrick Deary and Lai Chan Chow.
	Lai Chan Chow.
	San Antonio and Daly City, respectively.
	Julie Langlois.
	Langlois.
	Langlois.
	Probably pronounced Langlois.
	In Covina, California, 111.11.
	Bonjour, gentlemen.
	I'm a new listener and completely captivated by your show.
	I was...
	I'm sorry about my reading.
	I was going to donate at Thanksgiving time, but the possibility of becoming one of the Baron's harem was too great an enticement, so voila.
	Please send him some karma for me.
	Let's send the Baron some karma.
	Yeah, I love that idea.
	That's great.
	You've got karma.
	Seeing as Belgium is about to fall apart.
	Yeah.
	Beth Amon in Emeryville, California.
	111.11 to compliment my fiancé's Joe's donation.
	This Thanksgiving we are especially grateful for No Agenda and just getting by.
	And Joe Wagner comes in from Emeryville with 111.11.
	It's a matching donation.
	And I don't know.
	This box is blocked.
	Yeah, I can't see it either.
	Matching donations.
	This Thanksgiving, we're especially thankful for no agenda and just getting by.
	Same thing, I think.
	So it's a compliment.
	I have no idea why that box is so small.
	Patrick Coble.
	That's what she said.
	Sir Patrick Coble, Nashville, Tennessee.
	1111.
	Hello, everybody.
	Hello, everybody.
	Sir Patrick Coble, to you.
	It's been a while since I've donated.
	I was starting to feel like a boner, not a donor, so fix the situation.
	I need to get a karma shot to all the Thanksgivers, and a special thanks to Adam and John for working so hard so we don't have to.
	I know they've changed my perspective on everything.
	I don't know about that, and I'm sure there are many other no-agenders that would agree.
	I want to with no-agenders.
	No-agenders.
	I like that.
	I like that.
	No-agenders.
	We got a bunch of no-agenders out here.
	No-agenders out here in Gitmo Tejas.
	Sir Joe again from Joe Cool Designs for doing some awesome logo work.
	If you need some graphic design, he's your guy and we need to keep it in the No Agenda family.
	I have three major PR initiatives I'm working on right now.
	Hope I can have something good by the new year.
	I'm also on a nerdy note.
	I've made a Call of Duty Modem Warfare 3 group called No Agenda.
	It's modern warfare, not modem.
	I said modem.
	Yeah, I know.
	It's modern.
	Call of Duty Modern Welfare.
	Modern Welfare 3.
	I told you that my reading is not good today.
	Called No Agenda.
	And if anyone is rocking out and pooning, pawning, pooning, noobs, why don't you read the rest of this?
	Alright, I'm going to take it back.
	I have three major PR initiatives I'm working on right now, and I hope I can have something good by the new year.
	Also, on a nerdy note, I've made a Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 group called No Agenda.
	If anyone is rocking out and pwning noobs, then join up, and we might make some sweet SEO juice.
	I've got to scroll down here a second.
	Oh, man, this doesn't work on my spreadsheet.
	Hold on a second.
	It goes to the...
	I hate this.
	Everything's crossed out here.
	Thanks, Sir Patrick.
	You rock.
	I can't read it, John.
	Okay.
	Thank you, Microsoft Excel.
	Yes.
	Jason Dozier in Kansas City, Kansas, 109-11 from Gitmo Nation.
	Fly over Thanksgiving may be a fake holiday, but I'm still thankful for what you guys produce every week and we work on Thanksgiving.
	I could use some karma to aid my wife in a current job hunt so we can get back to living an American dream with just getting by now, back to my regularly scheduled life of being a happy and productive slave.
	Give her some karma.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	You've got karma.
	Now here's a name.
	Kylian?
	What do you think?
	Babcock?
	I don't even know where I am, man.
	Oh, we're down in Higashi, Osaka.
	Osaka, Japan.
	Hey guys!
	I thought that my last donation had gotten lost in the mix and went unmentioned and I saw that I wasn't reading the fine print and it said I had to donate 50 or more to get a donor mention.
	Again, one of the downsides of donating drunk...
	Very good.
	So just to give you credit for creating the best podcast in the universe, I thought I'd reach deep in my threadbare pockets for just a little more.
	It turns out that you take the letters of the word turkey and convert them to the numeric equivalent, T equals 20, U equals 21, and so on.
	Then add them up.
	You get 100...
	Oh.
	So here's $100 to help you stock your larders in preparation of the cold winter holidays ahead.
	By the way, there's a bit of a new development in the Big Pharma versus the common man in Gitmo Sushi.
	There's been a big push recently among Japanese doctors to educate patients on the availability of generic medicine.
	That's unusual.
	Ah.
	However, certain people with deep pockets recently got a law passed that says if your doctor signs your prescription, which you think is a legal requirement, you aren't allowed to buy generic.
	Really?
	That stinks.
	That's horrible.
	Yeah.
	Well, you've got to get on board with the program, slave.
	Sam Morehouse in Austin, Texas is in for $100.
	ITM, John and Adam is my second donation.
	326 Hot Pockets producer.
	And I'm glad this donation will help spur my local economy as I'm an Austin resident.
	Hey now!
	Adam, if you need any advice on local restaurants or help soundproofing your studio, don't hesitate to ask.
	Sam.
	Morehouse has got his email.
	I'd like to draw out Drew and Fonzie as douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	Rich Haraznick.
	Haraznick.
	Haraznick.
	Yeah, he's donated before.
	In Easton, Pennsylvania in the morning.
	I hope this letter finds you well.
	The donations take me halfway to nighthood at $100.
	It was great meeting Adam and Miss Miggy in Hoboken this summer.
	I hope there will be a future Hot Pocket Tours, and there will.
	Wishing you all, because Adam has only hit part of the country and needs to finish it off, so Leo Laporte can talk about it later.
	Yeah.
	Sir James Briscoe, Bayshore, New York, comes in for $72.49.
	Hey guys, a donation to further help the downturn.
	I donate more in this troubling time.
	I've been spending over $2,000 helping my uncle, who suffered a stroke last year, to fix up his house so he can move back in and missed his increasing expenses.
	That's how I'm earning some karma.
	To atone for what I've done, that all the love of my life may be believed to be bad.
	Please give her smitta, some karma.
	I do hope that she's actually taking off on Thanksgiving and working through it like she always does.
	She deserves the break.
	For all she's done in that place and for all she's gone through, she's truly worth it.
	Alright.
	Alright, here we go.
	Karma.
	Whoa!
	That's a hard-ass karma.
	You've got karma.
	Matthew Phillips, Dearborn Heights, Michigan, comes in at 6969, trying to help on National Genocide Day.
	3 plus 3 plus 3 plus 3, comma, 3 plus 3 plus 6969.
	Somehow he's come to that conclusion.
	Michael Bowling in Watsonville, California, 6789 in the morning.
	Here's some turkey money for a bad day of donations.
	I'd like to ask for some karma from my girlfriend, Laura, and wish...
	Her, a happy birthday.
	Yep, she's on the list.
	She's on the list.
	You've got karma.
	Kenneth Mikkelbust in Frederikstad, Norway.
	Probably pronounced Michaelbust.
	Or Michaelboost.
	Oh, I have no idea.
	6666 in the morning.
	John and Adam from Gitmo Nation.
	Brown cheese.
	What is the brown cheese reference?
	It's the stinky ass cheese they eat there.
	Really?
	Yeah, it's like poop.
	It's like poop?
	Have you never been to Norway?
	You know, I've been to every Scandinavian country except Norway.
	Well, their cheese is stinky.
	Well, there's nothing wrong with stinky cheese.
	They're Frenchy stinky cheese.
	How about the leave for London get Monation East to do an artistic nude photo project there on Saturday?
	They would like some karma to help everything run smoothly.
	Hey!
	Hey, send pictures.
	You've got karma.
	The project's open to everybody, so any producers who are listening in the area, please stop by to either participate or just grab a coffee in the morning.
	Please plug the project's website, 1000bodiesproject.com.
	I'm going to take a look at that right now.
	So that means a thousand nudes.
	I think this is, yeah, this has been going on for these nude pictures.
	There's a couple of photographers, and maybe Kenneth is the main one, who get a whole bunch of naked people, and then they take a picture of them in the middle of some square.
	So it's the 26th of November, Thousand Bodies Project.
	Think that you stay held naked and alone in a photo studio, with a sort of mask in the one hand, and camera luster in the other hand.
	You ride a picture, and this is in Norwegian.
	You sound like the Swedish chef.
	Trevor Chapman, Brampton, Ontario.
	This is a combined double nickels on the Diamond 1111 donation, which will hopefully offset the dearth of donations you get.
	Please call out my brother Shane as a douchebag.
	Douchebag!
	At the age of 46, moving back in with our mother to save on rent.
	And can I have a shot of karma for my recent application for promotion at work?
	Yeah, of course.
	You've got karma.
	And along with the following, Carlos Sanchez from Chicago, Illinois, who gave us 6611, he also says it's the greatest podcast in the universe.
	Hold on a second.
	There's an English page.
	The rules of the project are you are alone in the studio when the picture is taken and you take it yourself.
	You can wear no clothes, but you will be given a mask to be used as you wish.
	You pose however you feel like.
	There will be no mirror.
	You take the photo when you feel comfortable.
	You have one that is one shot.
	Goatsy!
	Goatsy!
	uh, Goatsy!
	Carlos Sanchez writes, It's been a rough year for me.
	First I get laid off, then my mother passes away a month later.
	I'm hoping this donation will grant me a bit of some karma that seems to be helping out so many people.
	Well, give them a karma shot and we'll see what happens.
	By the way, yes...
	I've checked out the job site and would like to thank the shill for being such a helpful tool.
	I'm sorry, not that he's the tool.
	For such a helpful tool.
	Finally, by the way, the job site is a crawler that opens up all kinds of weird stuff.
	You should check it out.
	It's at noagendanation.com slash jobs.
	Finally, can you give me a happy birthday shout-out to my youngest human?
	We got that on the list.
	Keep up the great work.
	Michael Seigenthaler.
	Seigenthaler.
	And San Bernardino.
	San Berdu to you.
	5555.
	Hello from Gitman Nation.
	Chitlins.
	Where is he?
	San Bernardino.
	San Bernardino's not at Chitlin places.
	I know.
	Last time I donated, I asked for a dedouching and ended up getting a job making twice as much as I ever have.
	Can't wait to see what karma does.
	Let's check it out.
	Here it comes.
	Bend over!
	You've got karma.
	We never know.
	We'll find out, I'm sure, shortly.
	Rick Barkhouse in Smith Falls, Ontario.
	5555.
	Hi, John and Adam.
	Greetings from Gitmo Nation Beaver Tail.
	I've been a loyal listener for about a year and am finally able to afford a de-douching Oh, all right.
	Here we go, then.
	You've been de-douched.
	Nice.
	Tells us to keep up the great work.
	Sir David Dolson, Houston, Texas.
	Well, Thanksgiving is only a U.S. holiday.
	It's actually in Canada, too, but it's a different day.
	Hopefully the rest of the countries will make up the slack for the U.S. I know donations will fall short during this time of year.
	Y'all show truly is a worldwide phenomenon.
	Y'all show truly is a worldwide phenomenon.
	Since you don't cover just U.S. news and reports, please accept this donation of double nickels on the dime to help take the sting off working on a paid holiday for the rest of us slaves.
	P.S. Copious amounts of Chardonnay seem to have been the same effect as vodka for inspirational donations.
	And welcome to Texas, Adam.
	That's right.
	Adios, mofo.
	We encourage donating drunk.
	Yes, we do.
	We're the only show, by the way, that encourages that.
	That's right.
	Drink as much as you can.
	Even during the show.
	Ellen Gardner in York, Pennsylvania, 5510.
	Instead of wasting my money tomorrow morning, Black Friday, on some crap I don't need, I decided to donate to the award-winning Best Podcast in the Universe.
	Let's try it again.
	Best podcast in the universe.
	We're out of sync.
	I would like to ask for some karma for Ron Paul to win at least one primary caucus over the mainstream douchebags.
	Douchebag!
	Alright, here comes the karma for Dr.
	Ron Paul.
	You've got karma.
	He might win.
	He might win.
	Eric, I hope he wins Iowa.
	That'd be great.
	Because they'll still say, well, it was just a fluke.
	It's just a caucus state.
	It doesn't count.
	Anonymous did it.
	They'll say Anonymous did it.
	Yeah, it was a scam.
	Eric, Anonymous can't do it because these caucuses have to be live and in person.
	It was Anonymous who showed up and they stood in the corner.
	Eric Nagel in Bunschoten Spakenburg.
	Bunschoten Spakenburg.
	Deutschland, I assume.
	That's Holland.
	Bunschoten Spakenburg.
	Oh, okay, I'm sorry.
	Say it with me now.
	Bunschoten Spakenburg.
	Please send some karma to Eric De Schilt because he has a delay with the No Agenda mugs.
	And for the bumper stickers, which may not be deliverable...
	You've got karma.
	Are the bumper stickers going to be...
	I didn't know anything about the bumper stickers.
	Me neither.
	Probably some sort of DHS thing.
	You know Josh, the Hasselblad guy with the judge?
	He has that printing press.
	Remember I sent you the email about that?
	Yeah.
	He wants to do no agenda street signs for us.
	Oh, street signs are a great idea.
	Yeah, and we'll talk about it.
	Especially if we can replace other street signs.
	Yeah, this is great.
	We've got to talk this show about it.
	How about Bogative Drive?
	Harry Pilgrim in Fredericksburg, Virginia.
	Right, it's Harry who hooked us up.
	Harry, good old Harry, 5510, double nickels on a dime.
	Even though Thanksgiving is perhaps Bogative.
	It's just bogus, not bogative.
	I still believe everyone should spend the day with the pilgrims.
	Hope just helps you get through the lean times.
	Requesting a little karma for the pilgrims just getting by in Virginia.
	Yeah, they definitely deserve that.
	They're good people, Jen and Harry.
	You've got karma.
	Good people.
	So Virginia's got karma for one day.
	I have noticed that starting around Halloween, it can be tough to get any work done until late after the first of the year.
	Everyone has some reason or other for being out of the office.
	You never seem to get anything done.
	I've come up with a name for this period of time where everyone takes vacation and basically everybody works at the work levels down to a crawl.
	I call this period Semper New Hollow.
	Thanks, Moss.
	Semper.
	Short for Semper Fidelis.
	The Marine Corps motto.
	Okay.
	Yeah, he's a Marine.
	It refers to something with the Marines.
	Yeah, it's like, we'll kick your ass, bitch.
	I think that's the translation.
	Maxwell Roberts in Crown Point, Indiana.
	I would like to remind all the citizens of Euroland to continue to bow and obey their gray and reptoid overlords.
	And I have a clip of the chief reptile coming up.
	Paul Murphy in Kentwood, Michigan.
	Double nickels on the dime.
	Longtime donor.
	$33 a month club.
	First time I've given over $50...
	$50, Mark.
	I love your show, and it's the best five hours I have all week at work.
	I've saved up these federal notes just for this time since my birthday's today.
	I'm asking for a birthday shout-out and a shout-out karma for my job search.
	I'm just getting by stuck at a temp agency.
	Yes, of course.
	It's good and valid for a week.
	You've got karma.
	You know how it works.
	One of your buddies down in Spring, Texas, Robert Hagedus, double nickels on the dime, is a new Austin resident.
	I ask that you say the following to honor today's death of 117-year-old Texas tradition.
	Saw Varsity's horns off.
	Short!
	Whoop!
	Welcome to Texas!
	Whatever that meant.
	Thanks and gig'em.
	Yeah, I'll gig'em.
	All kinds of code in there.
	Clearly.
	Stephen Taft in Marietta, Georgia, where they don't do that sort of thing.
	Double nickels on the dime.
	Don't want to be one of the flock of turkeys that don't step up this weekend.
	By the way, if Eric's calculations are correct, I reach knighthood status, and you're going to be in there.
	Am I the first drone-flying ham radio operator, Black Knight?
	I think so.
	If he's flying drones...
	Wow.
	And he's a black knight.
	Yeah.
	Love that.
	We missed him.
	Yeah, we did.
	Raiko Miyagi in Benicia, California, $55.
	And Mike Strait in Cleveland, Ohio, $54.69.
	Second time donor here is going to invest his money in a lap dance from a single mom working her way through college.
	That's one hot milk, baby.
	But Adam's complaining changed my priorities.
	I hope you guys can sleep at night knowing that some young lady is short on tuition now.
	You could use a shard of karma.
	You've got karma.
	I promise I'll make up for it here with the UT students.
	They work cheaper there.
	Mark Matiosos.
	Matiosos.
	Matiosos, I think.
	Rockland, Massachusetts.
	5242 Best Podcast in the Multiverse.
	Jeffrey Gerlach.
	Sir Jeffrey Gerlach to you in Alamo 5150.
	Giving thanks.
	Skylar Viscani, Bakersfield, California 5033.
	Stop.
	Skylar's the one that sent us the picture of his girlfriend.
	Oh, no.
	How cool.
	It was a good picture, wasn't it?
	Yeah, outstanding.
	We encourage more of that.
	Skylar's a lucky guy.
	Yeah, he sure is.
	Holy moly.
	SirJamesFreeHallowBooks.com Hey, Jimmy.
	Cool.
	Summerfield, North Carolina, $50.05.
	Come see the biggest hollow book in the world.
	We have four no-agenda books, including one signed Adam Curry book left.
	You signed a book?
	Yeah, I remember we met him on the Hot Pockets Tour.
	Oh, right, right, right.
	And listen to the podcast I co-host with Paul the Book Guy.
	I'm sorry.
	By the way, Paul the Book Guy, or was James at Free Hollow Books, one of the two of them wrote me, saying that the other one had sent him, the one that I don't know which of the two it is, some sort of hot peppers powder.
	Oh, Jimmy has the peppers.
	He sent the peppers.
	I'm sorry, I need to give Skylar a karma shot.
	I think that was the whole reason.
	We were too busy looking at the picture of his girlfriend.
	We forgot the whole karma thing.
	By the way, I want Jimmy from Free Hollow Books to make me a Free Hollow book for the judge.
	For the judge?
	That's a pretty big book.
	That gun is huge.
	It'll look badass.
	I think that's the way you should have the gun in a Free Hollow book.
	That won't look suspicious.
	It's alright.
	The machines don't work anyway.
	Graham...
	Yeah, this is just books.
	Hey, there's a mighty heavy book you got there.
	He's probably reading them.
	Oh, no.
	He's reading books?
	Stop reading books.
	Graham Bennett, Waterloo, Ontario, $50.01.
	To all you American boners unwilling to donate...
	For this Thanksgiving episode, hopefully it will make up for some of the slack.
	I'm in need of a de-douching, and I've been a long-time listener, but seeing I'm a student, funds are a little tight.
	I managed to find some money to give you.
	I would like to call out all the people in Waterloo, Ontario, who haven't donated yet.
	This is a great podcast when one should receive the donations.
	Come on, Canada.
	Douchebag!
	And here's your de-douching.
	You've been de-douched.
	You de-douched the Waterloo and de-douched Graham.
	Yeah, I did exactly what I was told to do.
	Okay.
	Scott Chechei in Havik, Pennsylvania, $50.
	Bob Rathmel in St.
	Isabel.
	Santa is...
	Santa Isabel, I think, California.
	Thank you for someone who does listen on the holidays.
	I wonder how many people are actually listening.
	Is the chat room thin today?
	No, the chat room's good.
	In fact, let me take a look.
	We may be a little lower than normal.
	We've got about 500 people listening.
	He wants us to give ourselves some karma.
	That's very kind of you.
	We'll take that right away.
	You've got karma.
	Thank you.
	Christian Mooma in Land O'Lakes, Florida.
	to $50.
	Please take this $50 in exchange for karma for my girlfriend, Natalia, who has been out of work for nearly a year.
	We want a note back.
	She gets a job.
	Let us know.
	By the way, I'm a little annoyed by the fact that we gave karma to the Cleveland Browns because somebody asked for it and I was against this sort of thing.
	I don't know what to do about it because we can't keep doing it.
	It worked.
	They suck as a team.
	The fact that they won any games is amazing.
	Well, it's karma.
	We're going to put a price tag on karma.
	People can get karma when they want it, but for a football team, a commercial enterprise or anything like that, it's not going to be $50.
	Greg, because I don't like giving football teams karma.
	It's a waste.
	Greg Steerly, Santa Monica, California, $50.
	Janice, uh, oh, brother.
	Uh, Ultejabruns.
	Ultejabruns.
	Ultejabruns.
	It's got to be Dutch.
	Yeah, but she's from Hartford.
	Ultejabruns.
	Ultejabruns.
	Or she could be Sweden.
	I mean, she's in Hartford, South Dakota.
	In the morning, Adam and John, I wanted to send this to you two for having the show on Thanksgiving Day.
	I'll be listening.
	P.S. Last time you were pretty close on the last name.
	I didn't see her last name because she's in green, which means she's never donated before.
	That's weird.
	Maybe she received karma or something.
	No, no, maybe.
	Jeff Wheeler in Doylestown, Pennsylvania.
	Another $50.
	I'd like to get a Merry Christmas from both John and Anna from my wife, Kristen.
	Merry Christmas, Kristen.
	Merry Christmas, Kristen.
	Wait, he wants to record it and put it on the card, so let's do something else.
	All right, let's go.
	Okay, you start.
	You start.
	Merry...
	Merry Christmas, Kristen.
	Ho, ho, ho!
	That was Johnny Boy, and here's Adam, Kristen.
	That's one hot milk, baby.
	That'll be cool.
	Yeah, it should be okay.
	Yes, we do voiceovers.
	We are available for voiceover work.
	We are available for voiceover work.
	$50 a pop.
	Kevin Acosta in New York, $50.
	Contribution make John shut up about the Thanksgiving service not receiving donations.
	Well, it's over now until next year.
	This is my first donation after more than a year of being a boner.
	Won't work.
	We just wanted to say that the fake holiday specials are appreciated by many who download the show.
	If possible, send us out a shout of karma to my dad who's been getting by fighting leukemia with $90,000 a year in drugs.
	You've got karma.
	There you go, Dad.
	Karma for you, buddy.
	He also has an opera podcast that he recommends, operanowpodcast.com.
	Yes, I know the Opera Now podcast.
	It's very nice, actually.
	You would enjoy it.
	He wants to plug for them because the donation he sent us would have been going to them and he wants to give them something.
	Well, this will help them.
	It's a good podcast.
	It's very nice.
	Mike Bernstein, oops, Bernstein.
	Bernstein.
	Yeah, Bernstein.
	In Bettendorf, Iowa, 50.
	Paul Vela, Tauchester, North Hampshire, 50.
	50.
	And that'll do it for today.
	We did get a lot of messages and good donations and we appreciate it because we did come in on a holiday and I have to run out of here when we're done and cook a wild turkey.
	Are you cooking down there?
	Where are you?
	No, everybody's here.
	Oh, that's so sweet.
	We got a wild turkey.
	I remember the one time that I had Thanksgiving.
	It was the only time I've been to your house, actually.
	Yeah, well, you're welcome to come anytime you want.
	Yeah, but that wouldn't mean flying.
	I don't want to go over there.
	Just make sure you call a few minutes in advance.
	Yeah, and don't go upstairs into the office.
	You're not allowed to see that.
	It's a secret place.
	It is.
	My cave.
	I have a note here, a note regarding the no agenda.
	I'm sorry you guys didn't catch the magic number for episode 357.
	It says, who is this?
	This is horrible.
	How come I don't have the...
	Maybe he didn't want his name mentioned.
	357.11 being 357.11, prime number that won't ever occur again.
	Ooh, and the next group of primes is for show numbers.
	It's truly ridiculous.
	I expect PayPal will own all the podcast licenses by then.
	I'd hope to donate and maintain my douchebag status.
	Anyway, hail the foots, the V, and the best podcast in the universe.
	Why is there no name here?
	That's pissing me off.
	Alright, sorry.
	Send me a note again.
	We'll re-plug him on the next show.
	There's a lot of stuff to talk about on Sunday.
	Which really they'll have a low audience because I guarantee that if people, that just falls off the map.
	It happens.
	I remember from last year, we had like, the chat room was half empty.
	It is kind of calm now that I'm looking at it.
	It's kind of calm.
	But you know, people do appreciate it because after they've had the Thanksgiving dinner and everything, and then your relatives start getting drunk.
	They just want to go to your room and listen to the show.
	You know, to drown out the bickering from the family.
	Bickering.
	Right?
	Hey, so thank you so much for helping us out, dragging us through this Turkey Day.
	We're very proud to be here and proud to have a business model, which is no business at all, and just getting by like the rest of you.
	That is where you should go to support the program.
	Remember, if you're not paying for something, you have no reasonable expectation that it'll be there tomorrow.

	Happy birthday from your buddies here at the No Agenda Show.
	And we have some knights to take care of, John.
	Knights?
	Yeah, we love our knighthood.
	Erica Schill has new rings coming out.
	So we'd like to have E. Taft, Stephen E. Taft, Steph Ford, and William Mason Gerlach.
	That's right, Sir Jeffrey is handed out a knighthood to William Mason.
	This is very exciting.
	Since both of you have directly or indirectly supported the No Agenda podcast, the best podcast in the universe with up to $1,000, I hereby pronounce the Sir Stephen E. Taft and Sir William Mason Gerlach, knight to the No Agenda Roundtable.
	William Mason, you'll really enjoy our hookers and blow.
	Courtesy of your dad, how cool is that?
	I presume he's his dad.
	Well, let's hope.
	Someone's happy in the Gerlach household.
	Yeah, hookers and blow.
	I love that.
	This truly is a real Thanksgiving.
	So, Euroland.
	I gotta talk about Euroland.
	Can I make a little prediction?
	Let me get the book.
	Okay.
	Well, I mean, I've already made the prediction.
	By the way, I made a prediction a couple of shows ago I want to mention.
	Okay.
	That I just didn't get it in.
	I wrote it in the book, though, so I could have the date.
	Yeah.
	Which was the prediction that the Euro land will have to decide on an official language, and it will be German.
	Okay.
	No doubt about it.
	The wheels are coming off this thing.
	Right now we have little Timmy Geithner and who's the douchebag over there at the Fed?
	What's his name?
	Bernanke.
	Bernanke.
	They are now asking all of the big banks in the United States to put together a little scenario, a little stress test scenario, just in case the euro falls apart.
	Uh-huh.
	And of course, that'll be a big bunch of lies.
	Well, that was also a message to get ready to get...
	I did a column in last Friday's Market Watch, which you should read because it's kind of funny.
	I'm surprised they ran it.
	I basically told everyone to get out of tech stocks altogether.
	Duh.
	Get out of everything.
	I said, bail.
	Run.
	Gold, baby.
	So here's the scenario.
	Greece.
	Land.
	Here's the land.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Raw land.
	Yeah, land.
	I agree with land.
	To bury my gold.
	Greece is now kind of refusing to actually put a signature under their bailout terms.
	This is for their 8 billion euros, which they need by next week.
	Otherwise, they run out of money.
	And they're like, yeah, yeah, no, we're good for it.
	We're good.
	We'll do everything you say.
	Yeah, and the Netherlands, Finland, and Germany are saying, yeah, would you please sign the document?
	And like, yeah, yeah, no, yeah.
	Why don't you transfer it, and we'll send you the document later.
	So they're refusing to sign the document, which is funny.
	I love these Greeks.
	The Italian bond yields spiked up to the Greek levels, essentially.
	Spanish bond yields are now approaching those of Italy.
	French borrowing costs have widened versus Germany.
	Then we have the U.S. bank stress test.
	This is going to take...
	One to six weeks.
	And it's falling apart.
	It's coming.
	It's actually happening.
	And then we have this memo, a six-page memo, which fell out of someone's bag from the German Foreign Office.
	How does this happen, by the way?
	This was happening during the period of time, I think, when Gordon Brown was at the...
	Well, they just took a picture of it.
	No...
	No, I mean, remember all those disks that were lost?
	Oh, on the tube.
	People left a laptop with all this government information on the subway.
	What is this?
	Okay, six-page memo by the German Foreign Office argues that Europe's economic powerhouses should be able to intervene in how beleaguered Eurozone countries are run.
	The confidential blueprint sets out Germany's plan to tackle the Eurozone debt crisis by creating a stability union...
	That will be immediately followed by moves on, quote, on the way towards a political union.
	You can cross it out of the book because it's done.
	It will prompt fears that Germany's Euro crisis plans could result in a European super state with spending and tax plans set in Brussels, which of course is what I and John, you just agree with me, have been saying all along.
	Then we get Haiku Herman.
	And Hermi Baby comes out and he uses a word which is actually not in the English dictionary.
	I found the word in Investopedia, which is another book of knowledge.
	Listen to the word and let's understand what it means.
	I would call it not euro bonds, but using a broader term, mutualization of public debt.
	Ah, mutualization of public debt.
	Have you ever heard of this term, Jean-Claude Dvorak?
	I actually have heard the term.
	Let us understand.
	In any case, it is not a short-term fix to solve the debt crisis.
	No, we are screwed.
	But it can be an instrument, among others, towards stronger fiscal discipline in your area over the medium term.
	I know it is a very sensitive issue in a number of our member states, but in exceptional times, it is necessary to look also at far-reaching options.
	Does that sound to you like we're screwed and here it comes?
	Does to me.
	Also, it will also be the case in my report.
	It is clear that to be feasible, preconditions need to be met in terms of fiscal positions and strict fiscal rules.
	This is why all those forms of mutualization of public debt can only be envisaged as the outcome of a process With different phases and criteria as it was done for the process leading towards the euro itself.
	Okay, so what Haiku is saying...
	Mutualization, the definition.
	This form of business structure is also known as a cooperative in some jurisdictions.
	This is it.
	This is the complete unification and loss of sovereignty.
	Yeah.
	For every state in the United States of Europe.
	Yeah.
	And it's just using fancy words.
	Yeah.
	They're not going to tolerate this.
	Well, they will, John.
	I disagree.
	People are so asleep.
	No, the Greeks are rioting in the streets.
	Oh, the Greeks.
	But we're not seeing that.
	Where do you see that on television?
	No, but this is happening.
	Yeah, well, the Greeks, they have a history of this.
	They keep getting screwed.
	So this is like passed on from father to son, from mother to daughter to grandkids.
	So that's their culture.
	But all these other so-called cultured countries, they think, oh, it's okay.
	We're safe.
	Haiku Herman taking care of us.
	It's going to mutualization us.
	It's all good, man.
	It's just mutualization.
	It's fine.
	Everything's going to be good.
	Give me some Adderall.
	Quick.
	Screwed.
	And Le Monde newspaper, are you familiar with Le Monde?
	Oh yeah, everybody is.
	Would you say that's a reputable newspaper?
	Yeah.
	It's like a high class, is it like the New York Times or France?
	I don't think so.
	They don't really have a New York Times of France, I don't think.
	One of our two French listeners can correct me on this.
	I think we've lost them.
	I think we have zero.
	Zero.
	So Le Monde publishes a report which is reported on by the British-speaking host of France 45.
	Sorry.
	24.
	No, it's French 24.
	Whatever the hell it is.
	The French 24 channel.
	Which, I don't know, I mean, they got English-speaking guys with British accents on the French channel.
	And they read the translation of the most amazing article...
	Hello, Ms.
	Mickey.
	You look so hot.
	...of the most amazing article...
	Published in Le Monde, which is taken directly from our show notes here at the No Agenda Show, the best podcast in the universe.
	Welcome back.
	It's time now for Media Watch.
	James Creighton's here.
	We have a bit of controversy on our hands tonight.
	Controversy.
	Le Monde's London correspondent claims that Goldman Sachs has developed a network of influential figures across Europe, which includes the new head of the European Central Bank.
	Does it sense a conflict of interest?
	It's pretty extraordinary stuff.
	Page two of Le Mans today, the European Freemasonry of Goldman Sachs.
	And what they mean by Freemasonry is the way in which the Freemasons operate.
	It's a network.
	And Goldman Sachs essentially, according to the London correspondent, I mean, it's pretty difficult to refute what he says, have put in place a network across Europe.
	Who does that include?
	You've got Mario Draghi.
	Let's have a look at his photo here online.
	He is the former, he's the new head of the European Central Bank, former Vice President of Goldman Sachs Europe.
	You've also got the current Prime Minister, unelected Prime Minister of Italy, that's Mario Monti.
	He was a former advisor to Goldman Sachs from, I think, 2005 up until the point when he was made Prime Minister.
	You've also got the Prime Minister of Greece by the name of Lucas Papademos.
	Papademos, yes.
	And he was the former head of the Greek Central Bank at the time when Greece came into the Eurozone.
	Now what they're saying here is the figures that Greece presented, we've been hearing this for a long time now, that the figures were not honest.
	And in fact, it seems that Goldman Sachs helped Greece to present a better face to the world through very complicated financial instruments known as SWOT. So complicated!
	Not, idiot.
	This was a financial instrument that Goldman Sachs helped Greece to conceal its debt with.
	That's since been referred to as lies and manipulation by various observers since, hasn't it?
	But it's what's extraordinary is...
	The Greek Central Bank was, I suppose, complicit with Goldman Sachs in concealing the true extent of Greek debt.
	And you had Lucas Papadamus at the head of the Greek Central Bank at that time.
	He goes through various other figures.
	You've also got this guy, a former European commissioner, an Irish man by the name of Peter Sutherland.
	He helped to place Mario Monti, who is now the Prime Minister, at the head of the Trilateral Commission, according to Le Monde.
	That's a key inner circle for the global elite.
	So what you're seeing here in this article is a list of names of people who have very close associations with Goldman Sachs, who have very senior positions, either in central banks or at government level in several different European countries.
	So, Goldman Sachs, Freemasons, all in together, and Le Monde basically going...
	Now, here comes the best part.
	So, when you and I talk about this, John...
	When I say the global elites, it's a banker takeover, you get people going, you crackpot, shut up, you conspiracy theorists, shut up.
	But when this guy does it...
	LeMond going public on the whole thing.
	And what's interesting is their London correspondent, a guy by the name of Mark Roche, he wrote a book called The Bank, How Goldman Sachs Rules the World.
	Now, it won the French...
	Business Book Award in 2010.
	So he's not somebody who's a sort of a wacky conspiracy theorist.
	He's a serious journalist.
	Serious journalist.
	Serious journalist.
	Just a wacky, wacky...
	I'm not saying we agree or disagree with what he's saying, but he's a man whose reputation is good.
	Absolutely.
	He's not crazy.
	He's not crazy.
	Like the Korean Dvorak Consulting Group.
	Not crazy.
	He goes into great length in this article, which is well worth reading.
	Anyway.
	There you go!
	We're crazy.
	We're not like that guy.
	But we said exactly the same thing.
	We've been saying it for how long now?
	I don't know, a couple of years.
	But we're crazy.
	Actually, if you've listened to the basic thesis that we expound upon, it's essentially a roadmap to what's going to happen, which of course will lead to the eventual civil war in Europe.
	Yes.
	And we're calling that now.
	Civil war in Europe.
	We called it a while ago.
	Yeah, well, we'd just like to call it again.
	I'd like to thank everybody for sending in their IRS forms to complain about the William Jefferson Clinton Foundation not reporting their IRS form 990.
	That's very cool.
	And people are getting responses from the Department of the Treasury Internal Revenue Service.
	And basically the response is, yeah, shut up, slave.
	Thank you for the information you submitted regarding William J. Clinton.
	Yeah, we didn't know this was going on.
	Thanks for the update.
	The Internal Revenue Service has an ongoing examination program to ensure that exempt organizations comply with the applicable provisions in the Internal Revenue Code.
	The information you submitted will be considered in this program.
	Internal Revenue Code Section 6103 protects the privacy of tax returns and tax return information of all taxpayers.
	Therefore, we cannot disclose the status of any investigation.
	Right, and we will not do any follow-ups until we're absolutely sure that Hillary Clinton will not be elected president.
	Until then...
	Then maybe we'll let you know something.
	Maybe, maybe, maybe not.
	So let me just roll out some funny things to wind up the show here, John.
	Oh, wait, I've got a couple more stories.
	Oh, good, I'm sorry.
	Please, I've been waiting for you.
	One of them is the, can you play the See Something, Say Something theme?
	Of course.
	Because this story relates to where this always ends up.
	If you see something, say something.
	It's on the blog, divark.org slash blog.
	I saw it as another one of these jaw droppers.
	I'll read the headline.
	Teacher goes off the deep end and calls the cops when a little girl kisses a little boy.
	Ha, ha, ha.
	The sheriff's deputy was dispatched last week to a Florida elementary school after a girl kissed a boy during a physical education class.
	School brass actually reported the impromptu bus as a possible sex crime.
	Oh no!
	According to Lee County Sheriff's Office, the assistant principal of Orange River Elementary School called in the cops.
	After a teacher spotted the smooch Wednesday at the Fort Myers School, in fact, Margaret Ann Herring, 56, initially called Child Welfare, who directed her to contact the sheriff.
	I mean, this is what this country's come to.
	Not this country.
	Not this Texas country I live in.
	I know where you live, but it's great over here.
	Well, this is Florida.
	We kiss all our girls at the hoedown.
	Now, another story which kind of got me was some guy in the East Coast with a proper license caught a 754-pound tuna.
	I saw this, yeah.
	I saw this.
	The government, our government, took it away from him because it wasn't caught with a hook.
	What did we catch it with?
	The judge?
	It was caught and he was fishing for something else and he got this big tuna in there.
	I was like, you can't have that tuna, boy.
	Can't have that tuna.
	So apparently the government took it and then the government officers sold it for something like $396,000.
	And got some lab dances.
	Really?
	What's wrong with it?
	I think Ron Paul's got this all correct.
	He does.
	I think in the whole scheme of things.
	And I do want to play one last Ron Paul clip.
	Just about the fish thing.
	I'm reliably informed that if you...
	Because they're pretty strict on speed limits here in Texas.
	But if you get your license plate, your Texas license plate, with the fish Texas, you can get one with a fish, that the cops then think you're cool.
	Because you're like a fisher.
	Oh, that's good.
	Are you going to get that?
	Yeah, hell yeah.
	I'm getting me a fish license, you betcha.
	I just want to play one little clip that's actually taken from O'Reilly who hates Ron Paul.
	Because Fox is run by Democrats.
	Yeah, and they hate Ron Paul.
	And the word isolationist is dropped in here by...
	By O'Reilly?
	No, the other guy.
	Glenn Beck?
	Dennis Miller?
	I can't think of his name.
	Peraldo?
	Megan Fox?
	Megan Fox?
	It's one of the more...
	He's a guy who came over from the networks.
	He's working for Fox.
	You'll recognize his voice.
	But he throws the isolation, this word, in as some sort of a negative thing.
	I am going to develop a small...
	And don't ride me about my cycles book.
	A small thesis about this.
	that isolationism, which is a term that never appeared until about 1890 and didn't become popular, and at first it was isolationism became a term around 1920.
	It was always considered that Americans were always kept to themselves, kind of a Ron Paul ideal.
	It doesn't mean that you don't do international trade, but you don't keep to yourself.
	You don't go throwing bombs on people in deserts.
	You don't throw bombs on people, and you don't just give all the jobs to China.
	China.
	And so, but he, I just galled me when I first, they blast Ron Paul and then, and what's his name?
	The other guy tries to kind of rationalize how it works.
	And then he drops the isolationist bomb in there.
	And I'm thinking, this is a negative word that is, shouldn't be negative.
	It's actually a positive thing.
	But so the word has to be changed, you know, America first or something else, but play this clip and I'll be done with it.
	This is dangerous stuff.
	I mean, if you had power, it's not dangerous if you're not going to have power.
	We don't believe Mr.
	Paul will win.
	But it's dangerous stuff if you had power to think that way, is it not?
	Well, arguably so, Bill, but bear in mind that libertarians are deeply distrustful of governmental action on many levels, not least of them foreign military undertakings, and the positioning of American troops around the world and foreign military involvements are something that libertarians are sort of, you know, for a long time have been opposed to.
	So you see him articulating these views that are consistent with that.
	No, but the essential point is that you believe a slice of the American electorate would be...
	Yeah, isolationists.
	Wow.
	Isolationists.
	Isolationists.
	Well, yeah.
	I'm an isolationist.
	I think it's good.
	You know, I believe...
	I believe a couple of things.
	But I believe that something may happen with Ron Paul.
	That people, you know, if they can get...
	See, unfortunately, no one watches CNN. But, you know, they're trying to hype it up.
	And they're making it sexy.
	So, you know, we've got Wolf Seacrest.
	And people might tune into it.
	I can just imagine someone sitting on the couch with their hand in the crotch going like, So when did this thing happen?
	And just be confused, you know, like, oh, okay, that's kind of interesting.
	They all go, wait a minute, there's one guy who keeps saying something different.
	And it was so apparent on this debate that maybe, just maybe, people go, wait a minute, if that guy's the only guy saying something different, maybe there's something to it.
	I do have this hope.
	Is that foolish of me?
	Oh, totally.
	Oh, okay.
	But I think that he's gotten a lot of attention, so much so that they have to try ways to blast him and marginalize him and make him look like an idiot.
	And they've done everything they can, but he still has his...
	One, he has his message, which is very...
	He doesn't waffle.
	He doesn't lie.
	He doesn't go back and forth on things.
	He has a good reason for the way he thinks, and he explains it if you ask him.
	And the rest of it is just...
	You know, the propaganda on the other side.
	And like Paul says over and over again, it's one party.
	If you want to play one last Ron Paul clip before we go out, you can play his little thing on the Super Committee and why it's just a fiasco.
	Super Committee, here we go.
	Tell me real quickly, what are your thoughts about the Super Committee, its work, what's going to happen next week, and what are the ramifications?
	I'm against the Super Committee.
	It's not going to work, nor will the Congress work, because they're deadlocked, because they won't admit the problem is serious.
	They won't admit that we're bankrupt.
	They won't admit either side that we have to cut something.
	So if it goes into sequestration and there's a nickel and a dime taken away from the military projected increases, no real cuts, there's no...
	No actual cuts.
	It's all cuts and the proposed increases.
	And there's several in Washington, a coalition of Democrats and Republicans that will introduce a resolution and will exempt all those military expenditures and make sure that nothing gets cuts.
	Yeah, of course.
	Increase the drone program.
	And by the way, most of the cuts that both parties are talking about, about everything, is cuts and increases.
	Yeah.
	There's no real cuts.
	It's a cut in an increase.
	I know.
	It's crazy.
	Instead of $60 billion more, you get $57 billion more.
	More.
	You're still getting more.
	I know.
	You're getting like $100 billion.
	I know.
	You want to get $140 billion and they're going to, oh, we're going to cut it.
	Okay, they cut it to $120.
	They're not cutting into the $100.
	So I've got a couple of Red Book predictions.
	Whip it out.
	Woo!
	It's cold in here.
	Woo!
	So we have our 40 days and 40 nights reality show.
	This is what you're going to get.
	This is the president who, by the way, if you look at the White House, if you look at whitehouse.gov right now, you'll see that the banner has changed.
	This is the people's website, okay?
	The people's website says, if Congress doesn't act, middle class taxes will go up.
	Calculate your taxes here.
	Okay?
	So I guarantee you, in this reality show, the Super Committee will do nothing.
	President Obama will save the day, 40 days and 40 nights, that's what we have left, until December 31st, with an executive order which will be the expiration of the Bush tax cuts only for the rich.
	So this is a prediction that by the end of the year it will be an executive order because we can't wait, ladies and gentlemen.
	You know we can't wait.
	We can't wait.
	John, can we wait?
	Yes, we can!
	Wait a minute, I have one of those.
	Hold on a second.
	I thought I had that.
	I had it somewhere, too.
	I didn't edit it.
	Someone did it for me, but I wanted it different.
	We can't wait to fix our schools.
	We can't wait to fix our health system.
	We can't wait to create good jobs in a good ways to put benefits.
	We can't wait to bring a hand to global warming.
	We can't wait to break the score and rock to a post.
	We can't wait to make you out of the moment.
	Yes, we can!
	So the way you're supposed to put it together.
	That was too echoey.
	Yeah.
	But you're supposed to put it together where he says, we can't wait.
	Yes, we can.
	We can't wait.
	Yes, we can.
	So anyway, so I predict that we'll have that as the...
	Because this is the new reality show.
	Remember we had the ratings crisis.
	We're going to get downgraded.
	And last minute, we're all screwed.
	The world's going to end.
	We're all going to die.
	Terrorists.
	So now we'll have the president with executive order at the end of the year.
	Then I also predict...
	I think somewhere in January, February, we're going to have a benefit concert.
	A benefit concert for the 99%.
	We are 99%.
	And I think Lady Gaga will be out front.
	All of a sudden, I had the feeling.
	I'm like, we're going to have a benefit concert.
	It's going to be the 99% benefit concert, and all the douchebags will be there, and all people will be like, oh, if you're just getting by, this is for you.
	It's going to be funny if somebody, when they deconstruct a benefit, say, yeah, we were listening to this radio show.
	We never even thought of this idea.
	It was a great idea.
	It was really awesome.
	And once they said it, wow, that's it.
	99% show.
	I'm telling you.
	Which will be attended by the 1%, obviously.
	We're the only people who can afford those tickets.
	It's going to be too expensive for the real people.
	And now we get to...
	I think I have the jingle somewhere.
	Here we go.
	Time to open it up again.
	To the gate, to the gate, to the climate gate.
	That's right, everybody.
	So there's been an important shift.
	First of all, a whole other slew of ClimateGate emails came out.
	And I believe that this is a red herring, that they are purposely putting this out to discredit the IPCC, because now we have the UNPCC. And this is what's happening.
	Right now taking place, I think in a week or two in Cancun, we have the United Nations Panel of Climate Change Kakamemi, UNPCC. I think they've purposely discredited the IPCC, moving that over, saying that's okay because we're the UNPCC, which of course is the same organization that the IPCC is from.
	And you watch that the UNPCC is going to start implementing stuff.
	Guaranteed this is happening.
	And it's already being indoctrinated on the kids in Gitmo Nation East.
	Listen to a children's program about global warming and tell me if you can spot the errors.
	First, though, to some big news about the state of our planet.
	A new report says harmful gases that damage the Earth have reached record levels.
	Yeah, the latest figures from the United Nations Weather Agency show that despite all of our efforts to be more...
	That's the UNPCC, by the way, not the IPCC....more environmentally friendly, the amount of emissions is increasing faster than at any time in history.
	So what's going wrong?
	Well, let's take a walk back through time to find out.
	Okay, kids, let's learn...
	The Industrial Revolution.
	A time which, a few hundred years ago, would change the world.
	Here in the UK, people left their farmlands in the country to work in massive factories in the city.
	It sparked the rise of the railways, carting new products up and down the country, and it was all mainly powered by coal.
	Scientists worked out that burning all of this coal to make power releases a huge amount of gas into the Earth's atmosphere.
	It caused what we know now as the Greenhouse Effect.
	It caused?
	Really?
	It's having a huge impact on the planet.
	Now, listen to the music, because the images you're seeing for the kids, and this is a children's program, the images you're seeing are of the glaciers, the icebergs melting, fire, you're seeing big smokestacks with fire coming out, and you're seeing flooded roadways, Sodom, Gomorrah, and death for the children.
	Look, children, you're fucking dying!
	Listen to the music, though.
	The atmosphere.
	It remains there for about a hundred years.
	And while it's in the atmosphere, it's trapping the rays' energy, so the atmosphere on the Earth begins to warm up.
	The ice caps on the north and the South Pole start to melt.
	The sea level rise means that some towns and villages along the coast will be affected by water, as we've seen, flowing down the high stream.
	You're going to die, children!
	Countries around the world have been trying to do something about it after meeting to set targets aimed at reducing harmful gases.
	Environmental campaigners say a lot of the blame could be pinned on countries such as the United States and also China and India who are having a new industrial revolution of their own.
	Hate the Chiners!
	Hate Americans!
	You're stupid!
	They're killing the Earth!
	You're gonna die, children!
	Die!
	You should see this video.
	It's really despicable.
	Heh heh.
	Just put it in the show notes.
	Yeah, it's in the show notes.
	Okay, then I have two C-SPAN clips, which are both short in nature, but just incredibly funny.
	The first one is from...
	This was a hearing.
	This was a congressional hearing.
	The guy's name is Douglas Brinkley.
	And let me just see what this hearing was about.
	It wasn't all that exciting, but it got very exciting when the following passed.
	Let me just see if I can find...
	The hearing was the Natural Resources Committee hearing on oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
	So this guy, Douglas Brinkley, is testifying.
	And then we have Congressman Young...
	And first of all, he gets the guy's name wrong.
	Instead of calling him Brinkley, he calls him Dr.
	Rice while he's saying that his testimony is garbage.
	And then the guy gets in his face, he's like, hey, the name is Berkeley, not Rice, you idiot.
	And then pandemonium.
	And it's like a shut-up slave to the max.
	With that, I recognize the gentleman from Alaska, Mr.
	Young.
	Thank you, Chairman, and thanks for having us here.
	I will tell you, if you ever want to see an exercise in futility, it's this hearing.
	That side has already made up his mind.
	This side has already made up his mind.
	And the, I call it garbage, Dr.
	Rice.
	It comes from my mouth.
	Dr.
	Brinkley, Rice is a university.
	Well, okay, I call you Dr.
	Rice.
	I'll call you anything I want to call you and sit in that chair.
	You just be quiet.
	You be quiet.
	You don't own me.
	I pay your salary.
	I can tell you right now.
	The gentleman will suspend, and I'll remind members, and I'll remind witnesses.
	I work for the private sector.
	You work for the sector.
	You are invited here to testimony.
	We look forward to your testimony.
	You got the time to say what at least is on your time.
	Call me Mr.
	Rice.
	I needed to correct the record.
	Mr.
	Brinkley, we see a lot of people here and from time to time we make foo-paws.
	That is the definition of a foo-paw.
	Instead of saying faux pas, he says we make a lot of faux pas here.
	I mean, isn't that exactly the definition of a faux pas?
	By calling a faux pas a faux pas?
	Who is that douchebag?
	Who gives a crap?
	He gets in everyone's face, and then they tell him to shut up, and then he shuts up.
	Who is the douchebag that called him Mr.
	Rice?
	Oh, that's Don Young, a Republican congressman from Alaska.
	He's like, shut up!
	Shut up!
	Shut up!
	You be quiet!
	And the guy goes, you don't own me!
	Like it's a schoolyard!
	And we made foo-paws.
	Nobody is perfect here.
	But to interrupt breaks the comedy of what we're trying.
	He says to interrupt breaks the comedy.
	It's what he said.
	Yeah, it's the comedy.
	And I'm agreeing.
	Is that the same guy?
	Is that the guy from Alaska?
	No, that's the chairman.
	That's the chairman of the committee.
	Who's that?
	Let me see if I can find him.
	Breaks the comedy?
	Yes!
	And I'm like, no, it's great comedy.
	What are you talking about?
	This is fantastic comedy.
	It's, uh, he is, I can't read his name tag on the video.
	It's, uh, I just can't.
	We should bring this up in the next show.
	It's a fupa and don't break the comedy.
	We're going to have disagreements here.
	You've already seen that.
	We tried to do that.
	Try to do that in a way that is civil.
	Mr.
	Brinkley?
	You would do that if somebody said that to your name, too.
	Mr.
	Brinkley, I've been called a lot of things in my mind.
	I wouldn't call you that.
	You're a good congressman.
	Mr.
	Brinkley, do you want to continue sitting at this panel?
	Do you want a shape, slave?
	Yes.
	Okay, then, please, follow the rules.
	Yes, okay.
	I'll shut up now.
	Unbelievable.
	Wow.
	And then, finally, once again, I beg of you.
	I beg of our human resources.
	I don't know what the problem is, why you aren't doing it, but C-SPAN, which as you can tell, is becoming a comedy network.
	They're even calling themselves a comedy network.
	They have call-in shows.
	And they will let absolutely everybody on the air.
	And they have sometimes very interesting people who are being interviewed.
	And you can call in, and you can not only douchebag them, you can promote noagendashow.com.
	You can do this.
	You can say, hey, go to shutupslaves.com.
	We really need this.
	And I'm willing to give out special honorary mentions, whatever it is.
	It is so easy.
	And this guy, Phil Kirpin, Who is an economist.
	Listen to how easy it is to get on the show and listen to how abhorrent this asshole is.
	And Christ, talk socialism.
	Now, I'm not a completely socialist.
	I'm a conservative socialist, I guess you would say.
	You're a conservative socialist?
	Yes, it sounds like a Nazi moron, doesn't it?
	Sounds like some kind of moron.
	You just called the listener a moron.
	So please consider getting on these shows.
	We really, I mean, we can use the help.
	It'll be well worth it.
	It's easy to get.
	You don't even have to.
	They have no screeners there.
	Just get on and do it.
	We should just have one or two assigned people that just do it constantly.
	Well, we should.
	We don't need everybody trying to do it because a lot of people say, you know, we listen to C-SPAN so they don't have to, so now you're telling them to listen to C-SPAN. There's got to be a couple people out there that have the time to just do this continually, use different names, call in.
	There's three lines.
	Republican, Democrat, and Independent.
	You call in on all three of them.
	Do different voices.
	Somebody wants to practice their voices.
	Hi, I'm Bill.
	I'm on the Republican line.
	I'd like to ask a question to Mr.
	Jenkins.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Have you ever listened to the No Agenda show at noagendashow.com, Mr.
	Jenkins?
	No.
	That would do it.
	No, you should.
	You should.
	Adios, mofo, and then hang up.
	Perfect.
	You can do it.
	You can call back with a different voice.
	Yeah.
	I think if you use a star 67, one of those codes, your caller ID won't come through.
	Nice.
	Okay.
	All right, everybody.
	Wow, long show.
	Well, you deserved it.
	You came through for us, we came through for you.
	Coming to you from Camp Mofo, in the capital of the Lone Star State, I am your lone wolf in the morning, Adam Curry.
	And from northern Silicon Valley, where it's Turkey Day, I'm John C. Dvorak.
	We'll be back again on Sunday, right here, on No Agenda.
	Adios, Mofo.
