Time Text
Yes, Rush is at a charity event today, but he will return live tomorrow to take you through the end of the week with authentic all-American full-strength excellence in broadcasting, not the adulterated sub-minimum wage, cheap foreign labor version that you have to endure today.
This is Mark Stein coming to you live from Ice Station EIB tucked up in the northwest corner of New Hampshire.
If you're fleeing the country, do swing by.
We've got a big sign on the highway.
You can't miss it.
Last Rush guest host before the border.
We always love to see you.
It's great being here.
1-800-282-2882 in the season of graduation, the class of 2014, all over the country graduating with their master's degrees in transgender and colonialism studies.
It's a very moving sight.
This season, everybody, everybody has been bounced from the commencement addresses.
Ayan Hersi Ali was denied at Brandeis and Condoleezza Rice at Rutgers.
And Christine Lagarde, the head honcho at the IMF, was not allowed to give an address at Smith.
And Michael Johnston at Harvard.
Wait a minute.
Who's Michael Johnston?
Michael Johnston is a state senator in Colorado who was chosen to speak to Harvard's Graduate School of Education.
He's a Democrat, by the way.
He's a Democrat who represents Northeast Denver.
He's a Democrat state senator, and he was mysteriously banned from giving his commencement.
The students protested because his vision, his, quote, vision of education reform relies heavily on test-based accountability, unquote.
And naturally, if you're one of these dummies who goes to Harvard, you don't want to have anything to do with that.
So they're not having some guy who relies heavily on test-based accountability giving the graduation.
And then, of course, there was, as I mentioned earlier, that camel at the University of St. Thomas in Minnesota who wasn't allowed to give the commencement address because it would be disrespectful to persons of Middle Eastern origin to have this camel prowling the campus at Minnesota.
I would love, I feel it's actually depressing my public speaking fees, the fact that I cannot get banned from giving a commencement address at an American Ivy League university.
It's very embarrassing.
My kid, by the way, is graduating from grade school, eighth grade.
I think it's the week after next.
And they haven't got a commencement speaker yet.
And actually, it's quite hard to go and get a commencement speaker for the eighth grade in far northern New Hampshire.
You know, you try to get Christine Lagarde from the IMF.
You try to get Condoleezza Rice.
You try to get Valerie Jarrett.
Valerie Jarrett gave a commencement address.
And people don't want to know.
For some reason, they don't want to come and give an eighth grade commencement address.
So they usually wind up making do with like the lady who runs the cafeteria.
And it's all very charming.
Or the fire chief, someone like that.
And it's all very charming.
But I advise my eighth grader to invite me to give the commencement address this year because then these guys can get a jump.
I think it's important to learn early.
Then my son and his eighth grade pals can have a big protest and say they want their school to be a safe space and they don't want me to come and I'm a nasty hate monger.
We are not having him peddling his hate speech here at the eighth grade graduation.
And that way they can get a jump.
And it's like you get college credit for that.
If you've successfully protested your commencement speaker at eighth grade, it's like doing, what do they call it, AP.
It's like AP student protest.
You'll get college credit for it when you eventually wind up at Smith or Brandeis or Harvard or wherever.
And so I'm encouraging my kid to ask me to be the commencement speaker there and get a jump on that.
Valerie Jarrett, I thought, was very interesting.
She's not controversial.
You know, you can't have among the great American college students war on women.
You can't have Ayan Hersiali, a brave woman who speaks up for Muslim women's rights, like this poor woman who's about to be hanged in Sudan.
You can't have Christine Lagarde because she's head honcho of the IMF.
You can't have Condoleezza Rice because she was personally waterboarding people for eight years in the Bush administration.
But you can have Valerie Jarrett, who gave the commencement address to Pomona College and said, but also remember, before I hire anybody, I always check out everything that they've been doing online.
And believe me, we have ways of finding out everything you've been doing online.
That's cute, isn't it?
She's doing NSA jokes now.
The President's Conciliary is doing NSA jokes.
Actually, yeah, she's making a list and checking it twice.
And V Haf Ves of finding out everything you've been doing online, Javo.
That's great.
NSA jokes.
You know, I love it when these, I love it when our political leaders do these cute little jokes.
It's so cute to have the president sidekick doing jokes about the NSA monitoring everything you do.
It's almost as cute as when President Obama three or four years ago was doing jokes about how if you disagreed with him, he was going to see that you got audited.
That worked out to be pretty darn funny too, didn't it?
Anyway, anyway, Valerie Jarrett was giving the one at Pomona.
Boston College drew the short straw on this.
They had John Kerry giving a speech to Boston College.
And if ever there's a reason to rise up as one and say, we are not having this commencement speaker, we'll take Condoleezza Rice.
We'll take Christine Lagarde.
We'll take that camel in Minnesota before we have to sit through this.
It would be a time.
But these squishies, these jelly-spined eunuchs of Boston College instead sat through this droning snooze fest from John Kerry, who Secretary of State, John Kerry, quote, warned graduates of Boston College on Monday that they have doom and destruction to look forward to if they don't take climate change more seriously.
And I know it's hard to feel the urgency as we sit here on an absolutely beautiful morning in Boston, Kerry said.
You might not see climate change as an immediate threat to your job, your communities, or your families.
But let me tell you it is.
If the U.S. does not act, and it turns out that the critics and the naysayers and the members of the Flat Earth Society, if it turns out that they're wrong, then we are risking nothing less than the future of the entire planet.
And at this point, he waited, I think, for the standing ovation, but there was just like a loud yawn from the guy in the 23rd row.
So that was John Kerry.
That was John Kerry's speech.
There is a story today in The Guardian headlined, North Korea, an unlikely champion in the fight against climate change.
And apparently, North Korea, by the way, where people are starving, starving, they have camps, concentration camps where people are starving to death.
But The Guardian is congratulating them on reducing their carbon footprint.
And actually, if you're willing to starve people to death, I don't want to give John Kerry any ideas, but if you're willing to starve your population to death, it's amazing how quickly you can reduce your carbon footprint.
No, absolutely zero economic growth because they don't make anything except this knockoff Viagra, which doesn't work.
And so if you presumably.
That also is not going to cause you problems with any with your carbon credits.
So North Korea is apparently the new model climate change citizen.
If only, if only the United States could be as serious about lowering its carbon footprint as the North Koreans are.
So it's good to know that even though the graduating class of Boston College slept through his speech, that the North Koreans are taking John Kerry's warning seriously, even if nobody else is.
Even if the Chinese and the Russians and the Iranians and the Sudanese are laughing their heads off at John Kerry, the environment minister in Pyongyang is taking him extremely seriously.
We were talking about the Veterans Affairs scandal, and apparently it has reached, and I was saying this is the one that Obama will be seen to be taking action on because it doesn't go to him.
It's not like Benghazi, not like the IRS, not like any of that stuff.
And this is how serious they are.
They have escalated their concern over the VA scandal to the deputy chief of staff level.
Rob Neighbors, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, Rob Neighbors, will be heading to Phoenix Wednesday evening to meet with leadership at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
And so it begins, folks.
Out of the great groaning all-you-can-eat scandal bar of the Obama Buffet, they have selected the one scandal that it is safe for them to be seen to be taking action on.
And so they will be sending Deputy Chief of Staff Rob Neighbors.
And if it gets any more serious than this, they may well fly in the actual chief of staff.
Assuming there's only one deputy chief of staff, he may have another deputy chief of staff who's a more senior deputy chief of staff.
And this guy, Rob Neighbours, may only be the assistant deputy chief of staff or the associate deputy chief of staff, in which case they'll escalate to the actual deputy chief of staff.
But if there is no other deputy chief of staff, then they may send in the chief of staff to Phoenix, going in to emphasize, and they will show him coming down the airport, coming down the steps of the plane at the airport, arriving in Phoenix to emphasize that this is something that is happening a long, long way away from the White House.
And therefore, it's a scandal that it is safe for President Obama to get mixed up in.
We were talking earlier also about the bureaucracy, and the bureaucracy is in it for itself.
That's what happened here.
Basically, you got bonuses for killing veterans if you did it in such a way that you met your targets on the paperwork.
Because the paperwork trumps the actual dead veteran.
The dead veteran is less important than whether you meet your paperwork.
So they got bonuses for killing veterans.
And that's the bureaucracy.
The bureaucracy protects itself.
We have a situation where feds use donations intended for poor for massages and luxuries for themselves.
This is from the Washington Examiner, and it's about something called the Combined Federal Campaign, where, in fact, 41 federal workers are being paid full-time salaries to administer just one local chapter of the government's annual workplace charity drive, the Combined Federal Campaign.
Now, I don't even get this, by the way, because it's not a charity drive if the government does it.
Charity is when free peoples freely give their own money to causes that they support.
But the federal government has an official workplace charity drive, the Combined Federal Campaign.
And at just one meet, they outsourced it to something a non-profit called Global Impact.
And Global Impact had 41 federal employees working at its office with wall-to-wall views of the Potomac, on which pictures of starving children in Africa are juxtaposed against their amenities, such as a gourmet kitchen.
Federal employees expense personal dry cleaning bills, travels to an awards banquet, $80 flower gifts.
This charity, this so-called government charity, also has a private box at the stadium where the Washington Nationals play.
Money that could have been better used for the so-called charity campaigns was used to pay for hiring the jazz band at a leadership conference, a tour, a Mardi Gras tour in New Orleans.
And they had a policy where if you held your conference in Vegas or Orlando, the workers would fly in for a few days beforehand and a few days afterwards so they can enjoy some well-earned RNR.
A bureaucracy taking care of itself, which is what happened.
And in this case, they're just doing it.
They're just getting free massages.
They're getting a great orchestra to play at their leadership conference.
They're getting a couple of extra days in Vegas.
In the VA scandal, when the bureaucracy took care of themselves, they killed real people.
And that's how willing the bureaucracy is to defend its privileges.
Mark Steinin for Rush, 1-800-282-2882.
Mark Steinin for Rush, The Hill reports that the government, surprise, surprise, is paying incorrect subsidies to more than one million of these Obamacare sign-ups and has yet to have a system to cross-check documents against the original applications.
I mean, we are a smidgenette away from a situation where you can basically enter whatever numbers you want into the Obamacare website and nothing will get checked.
Again, because what is important here is that the bureaucracy give the impression of being allowed to be succeeding.
So what's important for Obamacare is not that people get the subsidies they're entitled to, but that Obama gets the numbers whereby he can trumpet the thing a great success.
So apparently there's more than a million people who are getting incorrect subsidies.
But it doesn't matter because Obamacare is working.
And there's no system.
There's no system.
You can't, even if you wanted to check, there actually is no way to check that the original applications are full of correct numbers.
HR says you would think a president who leads from behind could get the back end of Obamacare working.
That's right.
He was.
He got the back end of deposing Colonel Gaddafi working.
So he can lead from behind when he wants to, but he can't lead from behind when it comes to getting at the back end of Obamacare.
Let us go to, let us go to Arlene in Indianapolis.
Arlene, you're live on the Rushlin Bo Show.
Great to have you with us.
Hi, Arlene.
Thank you for taking my call.
I read all your books.
I love them.
But what I called about is this huge thing with political correctness.
Everything has to be politically correct.
You can't carry a concealed weapon in a restaurant.
You can't do any of these things.
You can't have this Sterling can't say something in private and have it stay in private.
And it's just everything has to be out in the public and everything has to be politically correct.
You know, it's just wrong.
Well, what it means is like there's no private space anymore.
I mean, to go back to the Valerie Jarrett thing, everybody knows there's no privacy.
So you can't make a joke when you're sitting on your sofa in your own front room just in case somebody's got the smartphone on.
And it's the fulfillment of the left's vision since the 60s, which is that everything is political.
There is no non-political space in society.
So that someone who does not hold the correct view.
Again, John Kerry has been given a lot of speeches.
I'll bring it back to John Kerry.
He was given a speech, I think it was at Harvard or Yale, as well as Boston College.
He gave one the day before.
He's out speechifying while Rome burns.
And while this woman is waiting to be hanged in Sudan, and while Putin's up to his mischief and the Iranians are getting on with their nuclear program, John Kerry is busy giving a speech a day.
And in the speech he gave before the boring climate change one, he congratulated Harvard or Yale, whichever one it was, on having the most, quote, diverse class ever.
And he said, you are, he looked at them and he said, you are Donald Sterling's worst nightmare.
I don't even get this.
Like, Donald Sterling is dating a woman who's half black and half Hispanic, right?
And whatever one feels about Donald Sterling, he's not scared of diversity.
His mistress, he's got one of the most diverse mistresses.
Single-handedly, he's got one of the most diverse mistresses of any rich guy in America.
John Kerry, John Kerry went all the way to Mozambique to find his wife.
Teresa Hines Kerry is from Mozambique originally, born in Mozambique.
John Kerry went all the way to Mozambique to find his wife, and he found the only white heiress in Mozambique.
That's how non-diverse John Kerry is.
But it's great to have the Secretary of State of the United States using a private citizen as a punching bag over some comments he made to his splendidly diverse mistress that were broadcast to the planet.
There's no private space.
And you want to be very careful about going down that road and entering that society.
And likewise, if you're demanding complete political allegiance on every point, when you go to some drive-through fast food chain and you're demanding complete political allegiance on every single point of your political agenda, whether it's gay marriage or whether it's gun control, then again, you are shriveling into a literally totalitarian society.
Yes, Rush returns live tomorrow.
He's out at a charity event today, but this is Mark Stein.
Honored to be here.
I've been talking about these bureaucracies taking care of their own.
Doesn't matter whether they're hiring their favorite orchestra for a so-called leadership event, as they're doing in Arlington, Virginia, or whether it's the VA guys at the sharp end actually killing veterans in order to make certain of their bonuses.
Or it's this fella from the Environmental Protection Agency.
This is a headline you got to love.
EPA worker watching porn up to six hours a day got a bonus.
This is by some EPA official spent up to six hours a day at the office on the taxpayer dime looking at pornography.
Yeah, he got a bonus.
That's no, no, that's not a spelling error.
He got a bonus for watching pornography six hours a day.
He downloaded and viewed more than 7,000 pornographic files during duty hours, and he still got his bonus.
And boy, I'd like to see those emission standards.
That's the EPA guy who you can watch porn six hours a day on the taxpayers' dime and you'll still get your bonus.
Let us go to Joe, who is somewhere in southern Illinois.
He doesn't want to make it any more specific than that, in case Valerie Jarrett's tracking the call.
Joe, you're live on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Great to have you with us.
Hey, Mark, you're the Rajah of the Republic.
I just wanted to say that there is no accountability.
And as far as this going up to the president from the VA, most of the SES guys are appointed.
They just move people around.
They don't take responsibility for anything.
If somebody's doing wrong here, they move them to another area and they keep the same people going around and around and around.
Right, right.
And you know what that's like, Joe?
You know the other organization that did that?
The Boston Catholic Diocese, Cardinal Law, his thing was if some priest got into trouble at one church, you move him to another church.
And if he gets in trouble there, you move him on to another church.
And there was some fellow way up in the North Main Woods, north of Moosehead Lake, right up on the New Brunswick border.
He'd been moved as far as he could go because no matter what you did, you couldn't get fired.
And all the same liberals who go on about the corruption in the Catholic Church and Cardinal Law moving people from one stuff to another, as you say, the same thing is exactly happens in the bureaucracy, including in this bureaucracy.
The doctors just get moved on to another hospital.
So what do you want to do about this, Joe?
What do you think the Republican Party and or even the administration actually should do if they were serious about changing this?
Well, the sad thing is, I'm not really a fan of Shinseki, but if you move him out, then you've got somebody else that's got another eight or nine months or so to get in, and then he gets a grace period.
And then if he don't work, then somebody else is somebody else.
They need to take responsibility.
They need a clean house.
Part of the problem, again, I said, was accountability.
Nobody's accountable.
They just worry more about pushing paper and figures and bean counters and taking care of us vets.
Well, it's because you can't be fired.
It's because no matter what you...
The only person...
That's why I don't care about firing Shinseki, because he isn't anybody.
He isn't anybody.
He's just like the little, the appointed cherry on top of this huge stale cake that can never be changed.
And every so often, some new president comes in and he takes the cherry off the stale cake and puts another cherry on.
And meantime, underneath it, absolutely nothing changes.
So as you say, you replace Shinseki and the new guy then will be given this grace period, six months, nine months a year, in which to get his feet under the desk.
And in the meantime, the level at which this stuff is being done, those people will pay no price.
And it's like the EPA porn watcher.
They'll actually still get their bonuses.
And at some point, the difference, you know, when we talk about everybody, there's like a lot of class warfare in this country.
But the real class difference is between the permanent bureaucracy and the people who do jobs in the private sector.
Where if you kill, never mind if you kill people, but if you just like the VA guys do, but if you just sit around watching pornography all day for six hours a day, you get fired.
You can't be fired from a government job.
And that's why you need actually full-scale privatization of some of this stuff to actually ensure that people are responsive.
And the people who do it, you know, like Shinseki doesn't know.
What is he?
He's like Shinseki's some general who has his sort of post-military career is eased in as the public face of some government bureaucracy.
And he'll be gone and they'll replace him with someone else.
And it doesn't matter unless low-level, mid-level, high-level members of the permanent bureaucracy can be fired, then it doesn't make any difference at all.
Joe, thank you for your call.
That's the point to remember.
Who at the IRS is going to pay the price here?
Who at the IRS is actually going to be fired?
You know, at what level, the guy, this is how crazy it is.
I don't know whether you remember, but on September 11th, 2001, there was like some big news event in America.
It was in all the papers.
You may have seen it.
Six months to the day, March the 11th, 2002, somebody at U.S. Immigration issued a permanent visa to Mohammed Atta and sent it to his flight school in Florida.
Mohamed Atta was the head guy on 9-11, and he wasn't at his flight school in Florida anymore.
He was a few dust particles somewhere in a big hole in the ground in Lower Manhattan.
He didn't exist anymore.
He was deceased.
But six months after he was deceased, some Dimwit bureaucrat at U.S. immigration gets around to approving his visa and sends it to the wrong address, sends it to the Florida flight school instead of sending it to big hole in the ground, Lower Manhattan.
And that guy, that guy, you know, Bush did the Obama thing.
Bush said, I'm mad as hell about this, you know.
And he was.
I mean, you could look at it the other way, that at least by this stage, U.S. immigration is only giving out visas to dead terrorists as opposed to living terrorists, which is what it does most of the time.
But Bush said Ian was mad as hell about this and people's heads were going to roll.
And what happened?
The guy was moved sideways.
So instead of being deputy assistant associate assistant, deputy assistant, associate assistant director of terrorist visa processing, he was moved sideways to becoming assistant deputy assistant associate deputy assistant associate assistant deputy director of deceased terrorist processing.
So he just had a slightly longer business card.
He was moved sideways.
He gave a visa.
He issued a visa to a guy who killed 3,000 Americans, 3,000 Americans, and they move him sideways.
That's how seriously they took it.
And that's the permanent bureaucracy.
And at some point, as I said, this is the difference.
These guys retire.
If you're somebody who still makes the mistake of going in a private business, if you've got a software firm, if you've got a feed store, if you're up every morning running your business and you're going to be working till you won't be, these guys retire in their mid-50s on the most generous health and pension benefits imaginable.
And you will be working until you drop dead at the age of 88 to pay for the third of a century-long retirement they are enjoying at your expense.
And that is the division in this country.
The division between a permanent bureaucracy that goes to the office and watches porn for six hours a day and then looks at the clock and it's like, oh, 3.58 and I'll be going home in a couple of minutes.
So maybe I should approve Mohammed Atta's visa or kill a couple of U.S. veterans in the last couple of minutes while I'm here.
That's the difference.
Until those people, until you're able to fire people for watching porn six hours a day, until you're able to fire people for giving a visa to Mohamed Atta six months after he's been on the front pages of all the newspapers, so his face and name ought to ring a bell, or killing American veterans to get your bonuses, there will be no change because, as Joe said, there's no accountability.
Mark Steinin for Rush, Mordecai.
Mark Stein in Farash, just want to quickly mention this.
Dinesh D'Souza has pleaded guilty in his campaign finance violation case.
He was accused of making $20,000 in illegal contributions to Republican Senate candidate Wendy Long, a friend of his in New York State, doomed candidate lost by a huge landslide for the Democrat.
And he made $20,000 in illegal contributions to her, which he rooted through, as this news story in Politico puts it, his mistress and his mistress's husband.
But here's what's interesting about this.
They claim that they got this on just like a routine campaign finance check.
In other words, he wasn't targeted.
It's not because he made a spectacularly successful anti-Obama documentary in the fall of 2012, fall of 2012, Obama's America, and that he's got another one coming out for the next election season.
They claim it was just like all an accidental, you know, entirely random scrolling through of the campaign finance donations and they got him.
So let's just add it up here.
He's now pleaded guilty because when the federal justice system of this country is corrupt, so when they target you, you are basically faced with the choice of pushing back and losing 10 years of your life, losing all your savings, and having effectively everything you've worked for destroyed.
And the federal justice system, when they target you, has something like a 97% success rate.
In other words, they're up there with Kim Jong-un's justice system or Saddam Hussein.
They're that good.
If they come up against you, it's 97%.
And most cases are settled before they ever come to trial.
If they go into trial, they'll demand even more.
They'll demand even more.
So he was looking at five years in jail now.
Having pleaded guilty, under the sentencing guidelines, he will be going to jail for 10 to 16 months if the judge applies the guidelines.
So he won't be around to promote his next anti-Obama movie because he'll be like that Benghazi filmmaker out in California.
He'll be behind bars.
That's how effective this country is when Obama decides to deal with his domestic enemies.
It's like a different thing.
If you're in Sudan or if you're Iran, if you're in Syria, you've got the run of the playground.
But for his domestic enemies, Dinesh D'Souza, as things stand, is likely to be going to jail for 10 to 16 months for a $20,000 campaign violence violation.
By the way, prosecuted by the representative of a government, this president in 2008, he was taking illegal campaign donations from all over the planet because he had no security controls at the Obama website.
So people were call.
And when people found out about it, the guys at Powerline tested the PowerLine blog.
They called in and they made contributions and put names like, you know, A. Hitler, the Reichstag, Berlin, Germany, and their donations were processed.
So he took all these illegal campaign contributions and he's not going to jail.
But Dinesh D'Souza, over a $20,000 violation, is going to be going to jail for 10 to 16 months because the alternative was the corrupt federal justice system destroying his life.
But if you're a bureaucrat, if you're a bureaucrat and you kill American veterans, you get moved to a new hospital.
That's the problem here.
That's the problem.
Justice is capricious and arbitrary and has a bias in protecting, in fact, fencing off from real justice this vast, ever-vaster government bureaucracy.
Let us go to Dean in Gainesville, Florida.
Dean, you're live on the Rush Limborough Show.
Great to have you with us.
Mr. Stein, it's been such a pleasure listening to you today and your turn of thought.
I just have a comment about this poor woman, Miriam Ibrahim, who's in jail right now with child just because she refuses to renounce her faith in Jesus Christ.
There was an incident in the Teddy Roosevelt administration where an American citizen was kidnapped by a Barbary pirate.
And he sent seven warships into the region, two contingents of Marines, and he issued a public statement through John Hay, his Secretary of State, and said, I want the Rizuli dead.
I want Petikaris, which was the man's name.
I want Petikaris alive or Rizuli dead.
Right, right.
And his advisors asked him about the legality of the thing, and he said, why spoil the beauty of a thing with legality?
Exactly.
Exactly.
So, you know, it became a slogan for the administration, which actually galvanized the nation, and the man was let go.
And I thought, you know, where are the Teddy Roosevelts of today?
That's right, because being a foreigner, I quoted Lord Palmerston.
But in fact, that was Teddy Roosevelt's Lord Palmerston moment and the precise equivalent of it.
And that's, by the way, that's what we should be doing here.
We should be emphasizing this judge's name, Abbas Mohammed Al-Khalifa.
So we would like, we would like Mrs. Ibrahim, Mrs. Wani, I believe her married name is, we demand her alive or this guy and the system responsible for killing her are going to be dead.
And as you say, it's not about the legality of it, Dean.
It's about effective power projection around the world, which this country, I'm afraid, has lost the knack of.
When the wives of American citizens are being hanged for choosing to marry that American citizen, this government has lost the respect of the planet.
Thanks for your call, Dean.
We'll wrap it up in a moment.
The CIA has announced that it's going to stop doing fake vaccination campaigns.
I don't know whether you've been following this, but in Pakistan and Afghanistan, they've got these polio outbreaks because there's genuine World Health Organization polio campaigns, but there's also fake polio vaccination campaigns that are being run as CIA operations.
In other words, where the big-time jihadist brings his kids in to have their polio shots and their vaccinations, and that gives the CIA, dressed up as doctors and nurses, a chance to get the guys in the database.
Unfortunately, everybody in Waziristan and everybody all over the Hindu Kush knows that the CIA is running fake vaccination campaigns, so they don't go to the real vaccination campaigns.
So now they've all got polio outbreaks there.
So the CIA has today, yesterday I think it was, announced that it will no longer run fake vaccination campaigns.
And this is great news because maybe we could ask the CIA to start running a fake veterans healthcare administration instead.
Now they've got all this extra time on their hands and all these healthcare experts.
It can hardly be worse than the real thing, can it?
This has been Mark Stein, your undocumented anchor man.
