Yes, America's Anchorman is away, and this is your undocumented anchorman sitting in, Mark Stein, living in the shadows and loving it.
Coming to you live from Ice Station EIB in far northern New Hampshire.
If you're fleeing the country, do swing by and say hello.
You can't miss us.
There's a big sign on the highway saying Last Rush Guest Host Before the Border.
So do swing by.
We're always happy to see you.
The issues we've been talking about are really all about the same issue.
And it's not something that Obama was shy about.
He told us just before the election that we were just a few days from fundamentally transforming the nature of America.
And the fundamental transformation is not there yet, but the pillars of it are in place.
The pillars of it are in place.
And he's made a bet, by the way, for example, that Obamacare is what it is.
Obamacare is what it is.
That even if everything were to fall the Republicans' way in 2014 and 2016, they will not roll it back.
They will not eliminate it.
It will be there.
And so that even if everything and by the way, that's not a bad way to bet, because if you look at all the things the Republicans have been pledging to get rid of, often they're things that are entirely peripheral.
Like the Federal Department of Energy, the Federal Department of Education, these are things that were Carter-era creations.
The Republicans have been pledging to get rid of for 30 years and would not, and they've been unable to do so.
The Federal Department of Education is the teachers' union's personal cabinet department.
It has no purpose other than that.
It has nothing to do with teachers.
It has nothing to do with schools.
It has nothing to do with the deplorably mediocre educational standards of public schools in this country.
It is to do with maintaining the union monopoly of education.
And in service of that, it is provided with all the other perks of cabinet departments.
As I mentioned the other day, the Secretary of Education in the United States is the only education minister in the Western world who has his own personal SEAL Team 6.
He has his own personal Delta Force.
He has a SWAT team that can go around the country and kick in the doors, if you like, with your student loans or whatever, as they did some poor guy in California that got the wrong door, as is their wont.
But it doesn't do it, but it would be easy to abolish that.
And yet the Republicans for 30 years have been pledging to abolish it and not doing it.
And it's easy to see how it can be a plank in the Republican platform that they're going to abolish Obamacare, and yet it never will be abolished.
It will be there.
It will be there like that plant in Little Shop of Horrors.
You know, Obama will go away, and maybe President Joe Biden will be defeated by President Rubio, and so the Republicans will take over.
But they know that when President Biden runs again four years later, that that dark, throbbing monster in the basement will be there even bigger than ever, and there's for them to use.
It's the same with, you know, again, it's the same with the immigration thing, which is all smoke and mirrors type stuff.
Now we're told, you know, Rubio is a bit upset about the enforcement mechanisms for the border.
You don't need, there's no point to building a border fence anymore.
There's no point to enforcement mechanisms.
Illegal immigration isn't going to matter once this bill's in place because legal immigration alone will increase the population of the country by with chain immigration, you know, which means that once you get your green card, then the rest of your family back in Venezuela or Colombia or wherever follow.
Illegal immigration alone will be increased by about 55 million by this bill.
So there's no point building a war.
Why would you waste money building a wall?
There's 55 million people from Latin America who'll be able to come and live here and vote here.
And as we discussed in the first hour of the show, they won't even have to pay their back taxes because Chuck Schumer is worried that too many of them will be fearful of coming out of the back shadow of the shadows if they have to pay their back taxes.
So they're not applying.
When you apply for your 501c4, you're put through the ringer.
You have to disclose the books you read.
You have to say what friends of yours and relatives are planning on running for office.
But if you're, why don't you just, that's the perfect answer.
The IRS says, oh, I'm terribly sorry.
I meant to say I'm an undocumented immigrant.
And then they say, oh, well, that's someone else's department.
We're awfully sorry to trouble you.
That's way better than 501c3 or 501c4.
It's 501c, how easy it is.
And that's what the program that all these millions of undocumented Americans coming out of the shadows will be on.
And so you'll have your extra 55 million legal immigrants to the country.
Now, the Republican Party say, once we do this, enough of those formerly undocumented Americans will be so grateful they'll vote for the Republican Party.
Do you really think, if that figure's correct, 55 million new legal immigrants as a result of this, do you really think 28 million of them are going to vote for the small government party?
Obama doesn't.
Chuck Schumer doesn't.
They look on this as part of the pieces they're erecting to make this a de facto one-party state.
Gosh, you know, Republicans will be such losers by then that maybe they won't put you through the ringer the next time you make a 501c4 application because you'll be so peripheral, so irrelevant.
They'll let you have your little group without demanding to know what Facebook posts you've made, what blog posts you made.
So these, this is, he wasn't kidding when he said that.
He was absolutely serious about it.
You know, I mentioned on the show last week that I've always been, I've always noticed as an immigrant, now, by the way, I think this is something foreigners do, how uniquely fearful Americans are of the tax collector, of the revenue agency of the IRS.
And it first came to my notice in the 90s.
There was a lady called Carol Ward, and she was a businesswoman at Colorado Springs.
And she had a chain of children's clothing stores.
And she was being audited by an IRS auditor called Paula Zhuzanowski.
And she felt that the auditor was incredibly ignorant of the business and the way the business was run.
And at one point in the meeting, she said to her, Based on what I can see of your accounting skills, you'd be better off dishing up chicken-fried steak on an interstate somewhere in West Texas.
That's all she said.
It's a funny line.
Boy, wouldn't we all love to say that to the IRS auditor?
Wouldn't we all love to say that to the government bureaucrat who's getting in between us and our business?
But unlike most of us, Carol Ward actually said it to IRS auditor Paula Zhuzanowski.
Three weeks later, three weeks later, the IRS began destroying her life.
Three weeks later, IRS agents went into her three stores, seized the inventory, froze her bank accounts, took the cash, shut down the stores, claimed she owed a third of a million dollars in back taxes.
The IRS even tried to seize the house owned by Carol Ward's 74-year-old mother.
They publicly accused her of drug dealing.
They did it all because of all because this one line, based on what I see of your accounting skills, you'd be better off dishing up chicken-fried steak on an interstate somewhere in West Texas.
This may be the most expensive joke in American history, except for the Obama stimulus bill, which spent a trillion dollars and left no tracks, which is a pretty expensive joke.
But this may be the second most expensive joke in American history, all because of a one-liner.
She denied she owed any taxes and demanded an audit.
So they audited everything.
They audited her business, her personal taxes, everything, seven years' worth of returns, and eventually conceded that she didn't owe $324,889.
She just owed $3,400 in additional taxes, or 1% of what they had claimed she owed.
1%, $3,400.
By the way, nobody knows whether that's correct or not, because there's no correct answer to what taxes you owe in America.
You know that.
If you do your taxes, if you go and get the TurboTax or H ⁇ R block software, and at the end of it it says, you owe this, you owe $5,000, you owe $10,000 or whatever.
At the end of it, there's a thing that says, we're now going to calculate your risk of audit.
So in other words, even the computerized tax software can't say whether this is an accurate figure.
All they can say is whether it falls within the murky penumbra of what you can get away with, the unspecified high figure and the unspecified low figure.
And if you're swimming somewhere in that murky, in that murky grey murk, you'll be safe from an audit.
That's as close as they can get, because 10 different IRS agents would give you 10 different answers as to what you owe.
So they determine they owe her $3,400, which is nothing.
They've spent far more than that going through seven years of her return.
She writes them a check for $3,400, and they refuse to accept it unless she signs a statement promising not to sue the IRS for violating her rights.
And they tell her that the Pope is coming to Denver.
This is 1993.
The Pope is coming to Denver.
And that if she plays ball, they'll return her merchandise in time for her to sell baptismal gowns for the Pope's visit.
This all went on for years.
She eventually sued.
She won.
A court ordered, gave her a third of a million dollars as damages for what she'd suffered.
The IRS was still sitting on all her merchandise and whatever.
Years later, five years later, end of the 1990s, dawn of a new millennium, a federal judge has slammed the IRS for acting with reckless disregard for the law, and they're still appealing.
They're still refusing to recognize they did it.
They've lost in court, but they're refusing to give her her merchandise back.
They're refusing to give her her money back because they can.
And you know what's sick about this story is that it started with this pathetic, touchy, dweeby little agent, Paula Zhizanowski, who got ticked off because Carol Ward got a one-liner out of her, got a zinger.
And because she's some dope from the bureaucracy, she didn't have some zinger to let fly back.
So instead, she sicked the attack dogs of government on her.
And that's just her, sensitive, dweeby little hack bureaucrat at the end of the chain.
But even after they've lost in federal court, there's no one in the IRS up the chain at the lowest learner level, even before you get to the Douglas Shulman level, there's no one up the chain who's willing to say, look, we did wrong here.
We should pay this money, apologize to this woman, and get the hell out of this.
Instead, they said, no, the institutional solidarity.
We've decided to destroy her life, so we have to stick together until we've destroyed her life.
We're like a cruise missile.
Once we've locked on the target, you can't do anything about it.
She can try and shake us off.
She can turn around and try and trick us, but we're going to wiggle around and stick with her until we blow up her life.
Now, that's just because she made a cheap crack to IRS agent Paula Zhazanowski.
But imagine then, if you have an agency that does that over a cheap one-liner, over a cheap joke, what it could say, what it could do for a politically ambitious administration that decided it wanted to use the extraordinary and obscene powers that the IRS has and wanted to put them to an explicitly political purpose.
This is absolutely disgraceful.
Half the population of the United States has been put on an enemies list and has been told, keep quiet, keep your head down.
Maybe we won't audit you.
But that guy across the street, that guy across the street who made the mistake of going to one too many meetings, that guy across the street who made one too many donations, we're going after him.
Learn your lesson.
Keep your head down.
Don't get mixed up.
Keep it to yourself.
That's the government of the United States in the year 2013.
Mark Stein in for Rush.
More to come.
Mark Stein in for Rush Limbaugh on the EIB network.
You know, it's a funny thing.
Since I mentioned that the Barack H.ObamaFoundation.org had a lot of terrific photos of its big shindig in the terrorist state of Sudan, a couple of them seem to have mysteriously disappeared, including the one of the genocidal war criminal Bashir, Omar al-Bashir.
But they do still say that you can donate because the Barack H. Obama Foundation is a fully tax-exempt 501c3 charitable organization.
That's right there on the homepage.
This is a fascinating thing.
You know, the presidential brother is a stock figure in American comedy.
You got your, what was he called?
Billy Carter with the Billy Beer, and then you had like Roger Clinton.
No disrespect to Billy Carter and Roger Clinton, but this is on an entirely different scale.
The president's brother works for a man wanted for genocide and war crimes.
And yet, mysteriously, it doesn't make the papers.
You can read about it at The Daily Caller and also at Walled Shubat's website.
That's Shubat, S-H-O-E-B-A-T.
But otherwise, it's all a big mystery.
Let's go to Kurt in Valley Vista in Arkansas.
Kurt, you're live on not Arkansas.
Where are you, Kurt?
I've missed.
I'm from Bella Vista.
Oh, Bella Vista.
Okay.
Okay, here you've got Valla Vista.
I think we've had deplorable quality call screening since we left it to Eric Holder.
I think those Department of Justice guys get the cheap bugs you can buy at Radio Shack, and they don't always hear the words correctly.
Great to have you with us, Kurt.
Thank you.
What's on your mind today?
Well, I've been following all this swirling turmoil around these problems the Obama administration seems to be having with these on different fronts.
I was born and raised in Chicago land and have grew used to Chicago itself being the city that worked.
It was the name that we often heard from the senior daily and then his son.
And Chicago always functioned.
It worked.
And it worked because of machine politics.
And that was your job in the bureaucratic army was dependent on your alderman.
And the aldermen, as long as they were in line with the machine, never lost, and thus your job was secured.
And when and the rare occasion that an alderman did change, it often meant wholesale change in the bureaucracy.
But part and parcel was that your job was secure because the machine was secure.
And as I watch the disarray around the Obama administration, it occurs to me that he has brought with him Chicago politics.
He brought Valerie Jarrett and Mr. Axelrod and any number of others along the toll who this is how they learned to operate.
The problem they're beginning to see now, and I believe will rear a much larger head as these things proceed, is the bureaucratic army on which they thought that they are dependent and thought they controlled answers to no one.
When Mr. Obama administration is gone and it could be the next Republican president, all these people are still there.
They owe their job to nobody.
And that, I think, is why when the IRS people go in front of Congress, they plead the fifth because this would be unheard of.
If you were asked to be thrown under the bus, you went under the bus.
But these bureaucrats in Washington have absolutely no intention of being thrown under the bus.
They are more than happy to provide information when it becomes apparent to them that they may be taking a fall for something that they were asked or implied to do.
And I think it's absolutely fascinating that the system doesn't work because the Democratic administration came from an area where they had never met this before.
They've met a more potent and powerful army.
Yeah, that's an interesting point, Kat, that in fact they've concluded that they're there forever and that the president is just some here today gone tomorrow figure.
And they may be that you may be right on that.
You may be right on that.
And it is difficult to do American City machine style politics in a nation of 300 million.
That's a different scale of challenge.
But there is, nevertheless, I think, a link between the bureaucracy and the administration.
And we'll explore that when we return on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to be with you.
That music sounds too mellow, Mike.
I was all fired up there.
You know, we're in Banana Republic territory.
That sounds like the kind of music when the IRS agents all do their line dancing in those employee motivation videos when they hold the parties that they got out there on the internet.
These videos of, have you seen that?
These videos of IRS agents line dancing.
Because that's what they do when they're not auditing Tea Party members.
We've got to cover the big news here.
I was shocked.
I was shocked by this photograph on the cover of the new single We Can't Stop of Justin Bie Bieber in this very fetching little black monikini that shows off his barely anything over his perky little breast.
But apparently it turns out it's not Justin Bieber, it's Miley Cyrus.
I can't tell the difference these days.
Anyway, we're dealing with the important issues.
We're dealing with the important issues here.
May 21st, By the way, speaking of Miley Cyrus type coverage, where's that New York Times story?
Yeah, here we are.
This is how the New York Times covers the Department of Justice, the Attorney General, the supposed chief law officer.
If this were still a nation of laws, the Attorney General of the United States is the chief law enforcement officer of the United States, the Attorney General.
And he's now, it's discovered that he's like been bugging James Rosen's elderly parents.
James Rosen is on Fox News, but he regards him as a prime threat of flight risk and all the rest of it, and enforcing the 1917 Espionage Act against this guy and all the rest.
He's done all this stuff no one's done to journalists.
The Bush administration, the paranoid left over the Bush administration, they were interested in what library books you were reading.
Now it's the IRS that's interested in what library books you were reading.
The Bush administration was tapping your phone line.
Now it's the Department of Justice of the Obama administration tapping the phone lines of journalists.
But the New York Times still manages to put a positive spin on it.
Here's the headline in the New York Times.
Seeking a fresh start, Holder finds a fresh set of troubles.
Who is the headline writer?
I know the New York Times guys don't listen to this show, but if you just happen to be sitting alongside him at the lunch counter today or whatever, and you know it's him, you know it's Fred or Jim or whoever it is, just give him a nudge and tell him to call in.
The headline writer.
I'd love to know what kind of genius puts that headline on it.
When I worked in Fleet Street, the most competitive newspaper market in the world, the lady, the rather plain bluntly spoken lady who was my boss, always used to demand what she called four-letter word me headlines.
In other words, F asterisk, asterisk, asterisk me headlines.
Seeking a fresh start, Holder finds a fresh set of troubles.
That's the absolute opposite of that.
That is a headline to say, there's nothing to see here, folks, but we're just doing a sympathetic story.
This poor little beleaguered man, this poor little beleaguered, innocent Attorney General who's on the receiving end of all these mean, racist, bigoted, right-wing loons saying mean things about him.
Seeking a fresh start, Holder finds a fresh set of troubles.
He didn't find the fresh set of troubles.
It wasn't there when he was, you know, spring cleaning and he was vacuuming the rug and he lifted up the corner and the fresh set of troubles was, he happened to find it there just under the rug or down it had fallen.
The fresh set of troubles had fallen mysteriously down the back of the sofa.
He is the fresh set of troubles.
He created the fresh set of troubles.
That's the New York Times.
That's how the New York Times does this stuff.
Here's the other difference, by the way, between you, the citizen, and your rulers.
The IRS, the IRS was asked to provide the answers for 41 questions by May the 21st in relation to this scandal.
Now, 41 questions.
That is far lower than the number of questions that the founders of peripheral citizen activist groups, minor Tea Party groups, minor groups about ensuring ballot integrity, minor groups that supported Israel, all kinds of activities.
And actually, much less than just donors now, because we're discovering this is going way beyond activists, between guys who want to march around and hold placards and set up meetings and form groups, but just people who give donations to non-approved groups.
We're now finding out that the IRS was targeting them too.
41 questions would be nothing.
You can hardly get any kind of correspondence from the IRS that doesn't have at least 41 questions in.
So they're asked a mere 41 questions by the Senate Finance Committee, and they were supposed to respond by May the 21st.
And it is now June the 3rd, and they have still not – they did not file for an extension, HR.
If they were really, if they had a real sense of humor, they would file for an extension.
They did not file for an extension.
They just haven't made the May 21st deadline, you know.
Like that April 15th deadline.
You know, you can swing by in early May and say, yeah, no, sorry, I'm still working on it, still working on it.
You have to comply with everything they say.
They don't have to comply with everything.
That's why I always say, ever since I had the misfortune to attract whatever it was now, the big $14,000 fide from the New York State Bureau of Compliance, that what this country needs is actually an alliance of non-compliance, where you have actually people saying, no, we'd like to live as you live.
We'd like to say, like Lois Lerner, well, I didn't do anything wrong, and that's all I'm going to say.
So there's no point asking me anything else.
Everyone should say that.
When the IRS say this is your deadline, you should say, well, thanks, but I'll take the same relaxed attitude to it you took to the Senate Finance Committee's deadline on May the 21st.
And they only had 41 questions to answer, whereas you want answers to 200 questions.
At some point, at some point, Americans have to reclaim the idea that they are citizens and not subjects, which is what all these things come down to.
Let's go to Jack in Havelock, North Carolina.
Jack, you're live on the Russian Limborg Show.
It's great to have you with us.
Yes, good afternoon, Mr. Sean.
My pleasure.
The point I was going to try to make is the way Obamacare is so entwined with the IRS, once it's implemented in 2014, I don't know if you've ever had the pleasure of seeing a stump doctor with a nest of rattlesnakes in there where everything's all twisted up and deadly.
Well, it's the same thing with the IRS and Obamacare.
I mean, they're just so twisted up and infested.
You're not going to be able to separate it.
And that's why people might be parked up the wrong tree by saying, we want to go to a flat tax.
We want to revamp the IRS.
They're not going to let it happen because they've got too much invested.
And by 2014, being as cynical as I am, there'll be plenty of Republicans and lobbyists putting their hands in it too to make sure that it stays the way it is.
And like you said, we are citizens, not subjects.
And I wish I knew of a way that we could start separating the two peacefully.
Well, you made a vague when you say it's like a nest of rattlesnakes.
I used to talk about this government in this country like spaghetti.
It's all entangled up and you pull one thread and it just gets twirled up with a bunch of others as you're trying to pull it out.
But you're right.
That's not actually a good analogy because it's like poisonous spaghetti.
So it is like rattlesnakes.
And you pull one and he's all intertwined with a bunch of others up the chain.
And that's unique.
That's unique to this country.
This is the only country in the world.
The great aspect of government healthcare in most socialist systems is its great clarifying moronic simplicity.
Everyone's the same.
You just go along, you go to the hospital, you say, I'm citizen number 5734, and they make you lie on the table and they take your handy out.
And that's all it is.
It's simple.
It's the same for everyone.
This is the only country in the world where the IRS, the tax collection agent, and this is worse because of what John Roberts did, God rot him, because the only way he could justify the Obamacare is on the taxing powers of the national government.
We are now permanently embedded with the relationship between the tax collection agency and healthcare.
So in other words, you think you've made appropriate conditions for your healthcare, and it's up to an IRS agent, the same IRS agents who want to know the books you read and whether your friends are running for office, and the same IRS agents who give tax breaks to Obama family members who are in bed with genocidal murderers.
These are the people who are going to decide whether they're going to approve, you know, the whole healthcare, the whole third-party system is nuts as it is.
All this thing where your doctor prescribes an MRI for your sick kid, and you take your sick kid along for the MRI, but the insurer five states away, some twerp bureaucrat, has to decide whether he's going to sign off on that MRI.
Now, that's bad enough.
But when you then have a system where there's a fourth party loaded onto the third party, and it's actually going to be the tax collectors of the regime that enforce healthcare compliance, then you are in for the biggest disaster ever seen by man.
And this is way bigger than, to go back to what our previous caller was talking about, machine politics in Chicago.
Chicago, the city that worked.
You may not like the dailies, but you do a deal with them, and they know how to make that deal stick.
I used to have conservative friends who had business interests in Chicago, Canadians, in fact, who did business in Chicago.
And they said, well, you know, it just is the way it is.
You go and you talk to the dailies, and they say you need to do this, this, this, and this, and keep a suite, and then it'll happen.
And that was the city that worked.
You cannot make this work for 300 million people.
So even now, we ought to be asking, I would bet on this that Obama knows that Obamacare is going to collapse in a great stew of chaos.
And what you ought to be thinking about is what he's planning for what comes next.
What comes after the stage when Obamacare collapses in bureaucratic chaos?
Mark Stein in for Rush.
We'll take more of your calls straight ahead.
Mark Stein in for Rush on America's number one radio show.
Let's go to Mike in Aspen, Colorado.
Mike, you're live on the air.
What's on your mind today?
Hello.
You're live.
Mike, you're on the air.
What's bugging you today?
Well, I'm just worried about you.
Oh.
Whenever you're guest hosting on the radio station, the conversation that you have is always of fear and of anxiety and hate towards your brother.
And I just think about it because I think that you spend so much time talking about negative things on the radio.
I hope that when you're not on the radio, you have some kind of relief from all that because as I told the call screener, as you sow, so shall you reap.
So if there's horrible things around you, that's all you're going to experience.
And I don't want you to experience that.
Oh, Mike, that's very thoughtful of you.
But I'm not.
I'm a happy guy.
I came to this country because I was a kid and I watched the Mary Tyler Moore show and I loved it.
And I thought when I got here, it would be like the Mary Tyler Moore Show.
And maybe I could work up and get myself a job on WJM-TV.
And I'm a happy, relaxed guy.
But you know what?
Am negative because there's 50 million people on food stamps, Mike.
Are you negative about that?
Is it being fearful to point that out, Mike?
Well, if I think about 50 million people on food stamps as people that are taking from me, then yeah, I'm going to be upset about it.
No, no, no, no.
There are 50 million people, Mike, whose lives who are not fulfilling their potential, who are not fulfilling the, who are not going to be enjoying the pursuit of happiness because the biggest crime of government welfare is not that it's a waste of money, but that it's a waste of lives.
50 million people on food, one-sixth of the population on food stamps.
The entire population of Rutherford B. Hayes's America on food stamps, Mike.
You don't find that sad?
Rutherford B. Hayes would find it sad.
Well, let me ask you something.
Are you a man of faith?
I am certainly a man of faith.
Okay.
And have you read the Bible?
I most certainly have.
I used to teach Bible study in small town New Hampshire.
Okay.
And so in the Bible where it talks about the kingdom of heaven and the idea that you cannot take, you know, your cars, your house, or anything with you.
Yeah.
Do you believe in that?
Yeah, I haven't.
Have I?
Unless you got mixed up.
I don't believe I've talked about wanting to drive my Chevy Silverado into the kingdom of heaven.
I'd like to drive it faster on American roads.
I wish they didn't have the insanely low speed limits.
And I wish they didn't have the insane crazy signs clogging up the shoulder so you could take a view of the get a view of this beautiful country occasionally.
But I've never expressed a desire to drive my Chevy Silverado through the eye of a needle and into the kingdom of heaven.
Okay.
Well, the idea of God is that God loves everybody and God has a place for everybody.
And it doesn't matter our situation in life.
If you believe that you are poor, then of course you're going to live an existence of poverty.
But if you believe that, you know, you have spiritual and wealth about what your situation is going to be when, you know.
Actually, that isn't in the Bible, Mike.
Now you're just winging it and putting on smiley face happy talk.
And you're getting dangerously near, by the way, to the big difference between Christianity and Islam, which is the fatalism of Islam.
But thanks for your call.
And if you want to call in tomorrow, I'll be happy to explore the theological finer points with you.
But we've got to run now because being mean, fearful, hateful right-wingers, we want to make some money.
And it's time for an EIB profit center.
Mike snied for Infra Rush.
I thought I thought Mike was going to play the Mary Tyler Ball theme after what I told Mike from Aspen.
By the way, Mike from Aspen sounded like kind of a doubter to me.
I hope I didn't do that for him.
Mike, I feel sorry if I've made you that depressed.
But if you send us an email, I'll send you a free complimentary copy of my Christmas C D because like all right-wing, fearful, right-wing hate mongers feeding on people's fears, I have a Christmas CD out there.
So I'd be happy to send you a copy.
I sing It's a Marshmallow World on there because that's basically the horse vessel song for right-wing hate mongers these days.
So you sounded kind of down to me.
