Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Hey, happy Black Friday to you, the day the Pilgrims mark down beads, 40% of the Plymouth Rock discount mark.
America's Anchorman returns Monday, but this is your undocumented anchorman, Mark Stein, sitting in.
No supporting paperwork whatsoever.
We're live at Ice Station EIB in northern New Hampshire, and through the magic of state-of-the-art technology, it travels all the way from Ice Station EIB down to Mr. Snurdley, who I think is in Florida this morning, and then back up to...
Oh, he's in New York.
So to New York, where Mr. Snerdley is, and from there over to California and up to the satellite and out to the planet.
But we're here in what I think is fair to say is not the busiest part of America to be in on Black Friday, although the traffic was murder today.
My general store had a special on plaid, so, you know, it was difficult getting around.
But I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
If you're heading home from Grandma's, the TSA has a great Black Friday deal.
Two enhanced Pat Downs for the price of one and with twice as many fingers, too.
And by the way, there's no need to get stuck in traffic by Gerner Walmart or anything.
There are bargains galore at healthcare.gov.
If you're a fit, healthy 22-year-old male, you can pick up a terrific health insurance policy for just $4,000 a month.
It includes pregnancy, hysterectomy, everything you're going to need.
And if you're at the Iranian nuclear talks, John Kerry says the Mullers are offering a great deal on centrifuges.
They'll give you two for the price of four and throw in a Death to America t-shirt and a novelty signed limited edition copy of Ayatollah Khomeini's Fatwan Salman Rushdie with your name where Salman's used to be.
So that's some terrific bargains at the Iranian nuclear talks in Geneva.
I trust you had an enjoyable Thanksgiving.
As Rush mentioned the other day, Obama and the Democrats issued talking points for Thanksgiving.
Because let's face it, you know, Thanksgiving with your family is really just another photo op where it's important to stay on message.
And they warned that you may have one of those uncles who listens to Rush Limbo.
So you might want to come with your healthcare campaign messages round the dinner table so that you're all ready with all your talking points when the cranky uncle who listens to Rush starts mouthing off about the president.
And I don't know how that worked out.
It's very, by the way, Byron York is a terrific piece in the Washington Examiner, I think it is today, in which he talks about how he went to the headquarters.
He was in Berlin recently.
He went to the headquarters of the old Stasi, which is the secret police in Berlin.
And I was there a couple of years back, and it was like fascinating because everyone you met, they'd say that the last person you met had been an informer for the Stasi.
The Stasi used to sign up people's relatives to get them to spy on their family members in case they were having dissident thoughts.
And Byron York writes in the Washington Exhibitor that he went to visit the old Stasi Museum and noted how the state sought to transform everything into an aspect of state policy.
That is what it means to be totalitarian.
And that's what we mean by totalitarianism.
Everything is the state.
The state is in everything.
And when he went to the Stasi Museum, he saw all this stuff about how the East German government had its policy to transform family events such as weddings into essentially state occasions.
They were to be renamed socialist celebrations.
And they were about celebrating socialism as much as getting married or anything.
And the exhibition, Byron writes, notes drive, did not gain popular acceptance because in the end, people wanted their weddings to be weddings and not socialist celebrations.
And now here we are.
Here we are, in which the president tweets a photo of a young man sitting at a table with a turkey and a menorah.
And the tweet for his, the text for his tweet, I don't think he writes his own tweets.
I think they come from the same guy who loads his prompter.
The text goes, celebrating Thanksgiving, lighting the Hanukkah candles, talking about health insurance.
Gotta love dinners like these.
So Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, whatever you got, whatever you got, these are just state occasions like everything else.
And that's why the Democrats issued talking points for Thanksgiving.
If you like your turkey, you can keep your turkey, period.
Actually, I think my apple pie had a pre-existing condition.
I think it came from one of those bad apple policies.
Anyway, it's the day after Thanksgiving.
So I would love to know if you were at Thanksgiving dinner and down the other end of the table, your punk nephew starts raising some of these Obamacare talking points.
Let me know how that went.
I would love to know how that happened.
But look, we're equal opportunity guys here.
And many of you liberals may have a few Obama talking points left over from lunch.
Because given the amount of talking points he was putting out to you guys to use with your rush-listening uncle at Thanksgiving, you may not have gotten to all the talking points.
So instead of, you know, the day after Thanksgiving making talking point soup, why not just call 1-800-282-2882 and recycle your Lamo Obama talking points with us and we'll see how it works out.
Martha Stewart will join us in the second hour, by the way, to talk about how you can cut up your leftover Obama talking points and with just a few pine cones make them into an attractive centerpiece for your Christmas buffet when you'll presumably have a whole new set of Obamacare talking points for Christmas Day.
Don't forget, by the way, it's November the 29th, November 30th.
Tomorrow is the day when healthcare falls into place, when Obamacare works.
Starting tomorrow, November the 30th, Obamacare will work.
So you'll have a whole bunch.
Mr. Sullivan is saying they've brought that back now.
What's the new date for when Obamacare will work?
Oh, yeah, it's going to be significantly improved by tomorrow.
You know, it's like your Christmas tree lights.
They won't all be flickering and flashing and blinking away in synchronicity, but there'll be two or three around the back of the tree that will be on.
And that's how it's going to be with the Obamacare website starting tomorrow.
It will be significantly improved.
And so they'll have a whole bunch of new talking points to issue to people for around the Christmas dinner table.
But for now, if you haven't, if you're a liberal and you didn't get to use all your Obamacare talking points over Thanksgiving dinner, then do, or if people just got bored and wandered away from the table and got out their cell phones and called USA and said, hey, can you get me an earlier flight back?
And you're frustrated and you want to try, you've still got all these Obamacare, you've got a turkey stuffed, you've got a 30-pound turkey that's been stuffed with Obamacare talking points.
Pull them out, brush off the gravy, brush off the cranberry sauce, and recycle your Lamo Obamacare talking points with us.
Because notwithstanding federal holidays, it's still the end of the week and you know about live from Ice Station EIB.
It's Open Line Friday.
Yours 1-800-282-2882 Open Line Black Friday.
You know how this works normally.
Monday to Thursday, a trained broadcast specialist retains ruthless control of the show.
It's like Obama's Thanksgiving dinner.
You're not permitted to deviate from the script at all, but on Friday, anything goes.
So you can raise any subject you want to talk about, anything at all.
1-800-282-2882.
But because it's open line Black Friday, if you raise one entirely whimsical, irrelevant subject, you'll also have the right to raise a second one.
So if you want to talk, I always say that time that Australian guy called me up a few years back when I was sitting here and I completely forgot I was on the air and we were talking about, I think we were talking about Australia versus Sri Lanka cricket test cause for about 20 minutes and affiliates were abandoning the show by the dozens with every minute.
We'll do that again today.
You want to talk, you want to raise whatever irrelevant subject is on your mind, you can do that.
But if you want to talk about the Australian Test cricket scores, we'll take that from you as well.
President Obama, life goes on, the holiday is over, and not all families had a happy Thanksgiving.
You know, it's true, we all love our families.
You know, they're the people you're stuck with.
You pick your friends, but you don't get to pick your relatives.
They're family, and it's a different kind of thing.
And some families are finding this Thanksgiving stressful.
Take the Democrat family.
This is according to a story about that things are not well among members of the Democrat family in Congress.
That is a heartwarming story reported by Laurie Kellman of the Associated Press in Washington.
Elijah Cummings, a representative, senior Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, he has said that members are now more cautious with regard to dealing with the president.
Now, this is extraordinary for him because Cummings, do you know this guy, Cummings?
If ever you see House oversight hearings on anything, basically, the last couple of years, doesn't matter what it is, Ben Ghazi, the IRS scandal, fast and furious healthcare, he's the guy who said, oh, there's nothing to worry about.
It's all working fine.
Ben Ghazi was a crack operation, showed the State Department at its finest.
IRS, there's absolutely nothing to see here.
He's the guy who will defend Obama up to the hilt.
And now he's saying tentatively that members are beginning to grow more cautious with regard to dealing with the president.
Now, then we move on to, and this is the quote for the day about the pain in the Democrat family.
Representative William Lacey Clay, Democrat, like Cummings, a prominent member of Missouri, like Cummings, a prominent member of the Congressional Black Caucus who personally likes Obama, struggled to describe the state of play between Congressional Democrats and the president.
I'm trying to think if you can call it a relationship at this point, unquote, he said.
I'm trying to think if you can call it a relationship at this point, he said.
That's the Democrats, the Congressional Democrats, and President Obama.
And what is he going to do about that?
We'll talk about that, and we'll talk about all the rest of the day's news and the week's news in the hours ahead today.
1-800-282-2882.
What is he going to do about it?
By the way, this is one way to look at healthcare.
An Associated Press story out of Santa Ana, California.
An appeals court says a woman sentenced to life in prison for hiring a hit man to kill her cancer-stricken husband must pay nearly $500,000 in restitution to his estate.
This is from the Orange County Register, where I appear every Sunday, I think it is.
I'm in the paper every Sunday out there in Orange County.
This lady, Mrs. Sandra Jesse, was convicted of murder for killing her husband because his colon cancer treatments were too expensive and were depleting their savings.
I believe she's just been nominated for the new Health and Human Services Secretary.
We'll talk about that and a lot more straight ahead.
Mark Stein, in for rush on the EIB network.

Most important story of the day from Associated Press in Denver.
Police say luggage belonging to 1970s rocker Peter Frampton was stolen by a man who took several other bags from Denver International Airport.
Was that by Peter Frampton, Mike?
That bit of intro music you just played?
No, it wasn't by Peter Frampton.
The only one I remember by Peter Frampton is that ooh baby, I love your way.
Ooh, baby, I love your case.
That's what this guy was saying.
Which had that thing Peter Frampton used to use, the Vocoda, which he put in his mouth and you go, wow, wow.
And I don't know whether it would be tragic if this man at Denver who stole Peter Frampton's luggage stole his Vocoda.
Although it would make sense.
I haven't heard his Vocoda in whatever it is now, a third of a century.
So maybe it was stolen from Denver International Airport in 1978.
As you know, this is a story Rush mentioned the other day.
I'm an undocumented immigrant.
So I was fascinated to see that an undocumented immigrant was a heckler at an Obama event in San Francisco.
This was one of these, you know, real tough ticket events.
You know, full, it was the toughest thing to get into.
But this illegal immigrant was there and was the officially designated heckler.
This is how, by the way, this is how postmodern Americans' governing institutions has become now.
The president travels everywhere to events now with a staged heckler to heckle him, and then he can respond to what the heckler is saying.
And the heckler is like these, has these talking points that the Democrats issue to people at Thanksgiving dinner.
So this heckler, who was called Ju Hong, and he was the officially designated Obama heckler at this immigration rally in San Francisco.
It's an official position now.
It doesn't require Senate confirmation, as far as I know, the designated Obama heckler.
The appointment is within the gift of the president himself.
It's like in England in medieval times when the king had his groom of the stool who had to assist the king with his intimate bodily functions.
This is one of those intimate functions, the Obamacare heckler, that the president gets to appoint himself.
And for this event in San Francisco, the pre-designated heckler was this guy from South Korea called Ju Hong, who heckled Obama to halt all deportations for undocumented immigrants like me and Ju Hong in this country.
And he shouted at him, you have the power to stop deportation for all undocumented immigrants in this country, Hong shouted.
And Obama read his response to the heckler off the prompter because it's all been rehearsed beforehand.
You know, it's like Broadway.
They've been in tryouts in New Haven, making sure that this heckler knows his lines and Obama responds to him well.
And Obama goes, actually, actually, when I'm speaking as President of the United States, if I could solve all these problems without passing laws in Congress, that I would do so.
That's reassuring to know, isn't it?
So he told Ju Hong that unfortunately he doesn't have the power just to issue royal proclamations without having laws passed in Congress.
But what was interesting to me about this, right?
We hear all this stuff about immigrants.
We've got undocumented immigrants living in the shadows.
We've got to bring them out of the shadows.
And we've got to, because they're just trying to work for their families and live the dream, living in the shadows.
You can't get in to an event with the president without undergoing a background check.
Without undergoing a, you know, if you're an American citizen, you were born here, you came over on the Mayflower, you've been here for centuries, you can't get the president without handing over your social security number and undergoing a background check.
You can't, the president will not gets to see nobody gets within, nobody gets within a hundred yards of him without undergoing the background check.
It's very different from if you want to go and see the Queen of Denmark or you want to go and see the president of Slovenia.
You don't need a background check for that.
But in the United States, you need a background check to get into any event with the President of the United States.
You need a social security number.
If you're undocumented, by definition, you shouldn't be able to get anywhere near the president.
Yet this guy, this guy, an illegal alien from South Korea, who recently graduated from UC Berkeley, who is on Twitter and LinkedIn, he has his own topic page at the University of California student newspaper.
This is according to Mark Frekorian writing at National Review.
The fascinating thing to me about this is that he got in to an event with the president.
And there's no, nobody gets near the president without giving their social security number or anything, but this guy gets in.
And as I said, we've reached like the postmodern stage now of American presidential government.
The citizen, the American citizen, can't get to see the president without undergoing a background check.
But an illegal alien gets to be the designated presidential heckler in San Francisco.
This guy, just another, as I always say, just another foreigner doing the jobs Americans won't do.
Yes, Rush returns live on Monday, but it's open line Black Friday.
Anything you want to talk about, you can talk about today.
By the way, there's no need if you do this Black Friday thing where you get up at 2 in the morning to go down and get trampled to death at the shopping mall.
You don't need to get trampled to death at the shopping mall.
You can take care of all your Christmas shopping if you go to rushlimbore.com and they got all the good stuff there, all the club gitmo stuff.
You can get your EIB executive office chair and everything you need.
And you won't need to get trampled to death.
So you can save yourself a lot of time and instead, particularly if you're one of these liberal callers that we were asking for earlier, instead of going down to the shopping mall and getting trampled to death, why don't you call up and devastate me with your Obamacare talking points and trample me to death live over the airwaves?
I was talking about this heckler, the illegal immigrant invited by the president to this presidential event to heckle him.
And he's like everything now.
The president, by the way, these heartwarming personal stories where His Gracious Majesty is giving a press conference and he tells some heartwarming human interest story.
Before it was the lady out in Seattle, I think it was, who'd managed to get some great health.
She was a single mom, hardworking single mom, and she got some great health insurance at Obamacare.gov.
And then it turns out two days later that, in fact, she found out they said, oh, no, we miscalculated what we were going to charge you.
It's not $17.87 a month.
It's going to be $2,300 a month.
And she was furious with him.
He can't touch a little human interest story now without it all crumbling to dust in his hand.
So this heckler said after the event, I wanted to hear what the president had to say.
But the fact of the matter is I was very disappointed by what he said, Ju Hong told CNN after the event.
Now, Ju Hong, he's an undocumented American from South Korea who's been in this country illegally for years, as I have.
You can't get deported.
I've been trying to get deported, and they refuse to do it.
It's murder and it's hell.
This guy, Ju Hong, 24, he's complaining.
He yelled at Obama that he's been separated from his family for 19 months.
Well, that's because his family aren't there in the White House.
They didn't get through security and stand in the White House in the official White House heckling party as the designated illegal immigrant at the White House immigration event.
But Obama, I love this.
This is the sort of, this would instantly, if John McCain or Mitt Romney had said this, this is the equivalent of when Romney, remember when Romney got into trouble because he said he had binders full of women and he was looking to fill a job and he said, bring me binders full of women.
And his minions did.
And it was a perfectly innocent remark from dear old Mitt, but the feminists went crazy about him.
They said, you know, if you vote for Romney, he'll put you back in your binders and everything.
Obama, pushing for immigration reform, said he can spot an immigrant just by looking at him.
Now, he was getting a tour of DreamWorks, the thing, the Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, David Geffen studio.
As I was getting a tour of DreamWorks, I didn't ask, but just looking at faces, I could tell there were some folks who are here not because they are born here, but because they want to be here.
Obama has said he can spot immigrants just by looking at their faces.
You know, we don't need no stinking birth certificates.
He can spot immigrants just by looking at their faces, which I found very interesting because I think I've got the whole how-to-be-American thing down pat now.
I mean, nobody listening to me can tell I'm a foreigner or anything.
But Obama says he can tell you're an immigrant just by looking at you.
It's some immigrant form of gaydar that Obama has been blessed with.
And just like his immigrant Gadar goes off.
You know, if he were to walk into the room now, his immigrant Gaydar would, the meter would go zap, the needle would be wrapped around the other end of the dial going to 11.
He can tell you're an immigrant just by looking at you, Obama.
Somebody said to me, by the way, why does he need these hecklers?
Because he wants it to look real.
He wants it to look like, and he can express, if you're heckled at the event by these phony hecklers, you can express your frustration.
He does it to express his frustration at the limited powers he has.
This is what's so bizarre about this.
You know, the immigrant heckler cries out, why don't you just suspend all deportations?
And he goes, Believe me, I would do it with a wave of my regal scepter.
But unfortunately, we still have this thing called Congress that has to pass laws.
So he does it to show they're left-wing hecklers.
And that's why he said, no, no, let this guy stay.
When the White House security, who'd let him into the event, even though he was an illegal immigrant without a social security card in the first place, they let the illegal immigrant in the event.
And then when he heckles Obama, they move to kind of remove him to the event, having let him in there illegally.
And he says, no, no, let him stay.
He's heckled from the left to show that he's really a man of the left and he's just constrained by this tedious thing called the Constitution.
And if it weren't for that, he would be able to do far more things.
And it's the complete opposite.
Roger Ailes told me this a few years ago that when he was involved, Roger Ailes, who runs Fox News, years ago, he was involved in the Nixon campaign, presidential campaign.
And what he used to do for Nixon speeches, he used to, he'd wait until it was about five minutes before the speech was due to begin.
And there'd always be protesters.
There'd be all these old, smelly old hippies outside protesting the Vietnam War.
And Roger would go outside and he would look around the protesters and he would pick the six smelliest, dirtiest, dingiest, lankest, hairiest hippies and say, hey, there's a couple of seats that have just opened up.
Would you like to have a seat in the seat in the audience?
And the six dingiest, dirtiest, smelliest, most disgusting hippies would go in and they would protest Nixon at some point during the event and Nixon would slap them down.
So it's the complete opposite here where Obama gets hecklers who basically support him.
Roger Ailes used to let real hecklers into the Nixon event because it improved Nixon's game.
It would keep him on his toes.
He'd have a grand time.
And he'd walk off stage and he'd put his arm around Roger Ailes.
He thought, I thought it went well tonight.
Really stuck it to the old hippies.
And it was the complete opposite of what's going on here, where we now have fake hecklers, fake protesters to Obama's left who give him a chance to say, well, if only I were the king and I wasn't tied down by these tedious laws.
This is a very, very weird kind of heckling.
If you think of how tightly controlled now all presidential events, quite disgracefully and quite unnecessarily, or how tightly controlled these presidential events are now.
And how bizarre it is that illegal immigrants, right?
Illegal immigrants who couldn't pass a background check, who can't give a social security number.
The whole point about undocumented immigrants is supposed to be undocumented.
And they're led into these events to heckle the president from the left for him to explain why he can only fundamentally transform the country at a certain point.
Let's go to Randy in Saratoga Springs, New York, the Empire State.
Randy, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh show.
Happy Black Friday to you.
Well, thank you very much.
It's an honor to speak to you, sir.
I found something very positive about Obamacare that made my Thanksgiving pleasant.
Oh, really?
It's turned by two bleeding-heart liberal daughters against him and then the Conservatives.
I've been a Reagan conservative for many, many years.
In fact, I'm a disabled veteran and I served while he was my commander-in-chief.
And they have finally seen what he truly is.
And it's Obamacare that Obamacare was what caused them to see the light.
That's because they're young and they didn't realize they'd have to pony up so much money for health care.
Is that how it works, Randy?
That's what it was.
When my daughter, well, actually, my daughter, my son-in-law, and my grandson called up to get their quote on what their new insurance was going to be, it was more than double what they had been paying before.
And it just proved that he was an incompetent.
And it was a nice Thanksgiving.
It's an honor to talk to you, sir.
I always enjoy when you're on.
Well, I hope, Randy, that's that stay.
It must be very weird sitting around the Thanksgiving turkey.
You're carving the turkey.
You're ready for the pushback.
And your bleeding heart liberal daughters have suddenly seen the light.
That's a happy Thanksgiving.
I hope it sticks around until Election Day, Randy.
That sounds good.
I believe it will.
These girls used to leave the room when I used to a Netflix archie bunker.
Not anymore.
In fact, we had dinner at my 88-year-old mother and father's house, and they were very happy about it also.
Okay, that's good news.
And actually, Randy's point here, by the way, is that this is real life.
Paul Krugman in the New York Times says Obamacare is like Benghazi.
Republicans are flogging a dead horse.
It's going nowhere.
The difference is, you know, the difference is obvious.
Very few of us vacation in Benghazi.
Very few of us have plans to buy a condo in Benghazi.
If you don't want to think about Benghazi, it's very easy not to think about Benghazi.
The difference with healthcare is that you can't do that.
You can say, I don't want to think about it.
And next thing you know, you're opening a letter in the mail from the signed by the eligibility committee telling them that they've kicked you off your healthcare and your policy has been cancelled from Blue Cross, Blue Shield, or Signal, whatever it is.
And that's real.
And that's real.
And the Obamacare turkey points for Thanksgiving, the turkey points aren't going to cut it.
You can have all the cleverest turkey points in the world issued by the Democrat machine.
And it doesn't, and it can't trump reality.
At a certain point, you can trump reality.
You can create your own reality when you're spinning a yarn about Benghazi, which is over on the other side of the planet.
You can create your own reality when you basically bus in some undocumented immigrant to be your officially designated heckler at an event in San Francisco.
But out there between Benghazi and San Francisco, there's this whole other place called the real world where people are going down to the mailbox in the morning, opening up envelopes and finding that whatever the president is saying at his rallies, whatever Paul Krugman's saying in the New York Times, whatever any of these guys are saying, you've just got to pay twice as much for your health insurance as you were paying previously.
And that's reality.
And at a certain point, liberalism cannot trump reality.
Markstein for Rush, more straight ahead.
Mark Stein in for us on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
I'd like to know how your Thanksgiving went.
It's Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, where all the great bargains are.
November the 30th is the day when Obamacare starts to become, they're not said it's going to be fully functional, but it's going to be marginally less totally unfunctional starting tomorrow, November the 30th.
is the government of the United States commitment to you, the citizen, that this they've had longer to build this thing than it took between Pearl Harbor and VE Day in the Second World War.
But they're not promising it's going to be perfectly operating tomorrow, November the 30th.
But it will be, it will be marginally less totally non-working.
And this is the government's commitment to you, the citizen.
So they issued these turkey points for you to bring up over the Thanksgiving dinner table if you happen to be seated across from your uncle who listens to Rush or whatever.
And I'm interested to hear from any Democrats who've still got some leftover turkey points that they didn't get to during Thanksgiving dinner.
They issued barackobama.com hashtag, they have a hashtag.
This is how serious it is.
You know, great powers historically throughout the world, when it is a really critical, serious issue, they give it a hashtag.
And the Obama administration gave their Thanksgiving turkey points the hashtag get talking.
And they issued these little mini ads.
This one's from barackobama.com.
And it shows, frankly, a guy looking like a total metro-sexual dweeb.
It looks like he shouldn't be allowed to hold a carving knife, but instead, he's one of these, he looks like the sort of guy who should be sleeping in his own bodily waste at an at an some kind of Occupy Wall Street protest.
But he's come away from the protest and he's taken a shower and he's gone to Thanksgiving dinner and he's carving the turkey and he gets and he cuts his finger.
And the Obamacare, the Obama administration says food-related injuries happen a lot this time of year.
It's a good time to talk about getting covered.
So if this did happen to you, you know, you are like this metrosexual dweeb here and you were carving the turkey over Thanksgiving and you cut your finger and you're like bleeding over the turkey and people can't tell.
Oh, wait a minute, is that blood on there?
Or is it the cranberry sauce or whatever?
And as you're bleeding there, your finger is bleeding all over the turkey and you move your hand and it's bleeding into all the sweet potato and the squash and you're bleeding over the pecan pie, the pecan pie, as they say on national public radio.
And then you say, this would be a good time to talk about getting covered, right?
I don't think so.
I don't think when you're dripping blood all over the turkey, anyone wants to talk about your health care plans.
They just like you to get the hell away from the turkey and stop bleeding all over the food.
But I would love to hear from you if you have had family members who attempted to raise Obama turkey points or if you yourself have some leftover Obama turkey points because it would be yeah, that's true.
Actually, Mike has just raised, I think, the point here is that whether the administration is in fact encouraging people to cut themselves.
I think that's that an emo thing, Mike?
I'm not up to date on youth culture, but I think isn't there, are there some young people who like to sit in their rooms cutting each other, cutting themselves, actually.
They just like to self-cutting, I believe they call it.
Teenagers are prone to self-cutting.
But if you are one of those teenagers prone to self-cutting, save it for the Thanksgiving dinner.
And then everyone will have an opportunity, as you're self-cutting, to talk about getting covered for self-cutting.
That's the message from your government this Thanksgiving.
Let's go to Susan in San Antonio.
Susan, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Thank you.
May I congratulate you on running for New Hampshire Senate?
Am I right in understanding that?
That's right.
You're looking at it.
My God, it's wonderful.
You're talking to New Hampshire's next senator.
Well, like your great man in Texas, Ted Cruz, he's Canadian.
I'm Canadian.
I'm in favor of an all-Canadian ticket.
Cruz Stein 2016, Susan.
I'm for you.
Do you think there's any chance that the American public will go to Washington en masse and tell Mr. Obama that we want what you promised and you can keep your Obamacare?
He could round up every union member in the country to be down there saying, inasmuch as we're exempted, we're all for it.
