Welcome to the Political Cesspool, known worldwide as the South's foremost populous radio program.
And here to guide you through the murky waters of the Political Cesspool is your host, James Edwards.
All right, everybody.
Welcome to the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
Second hour of the first show of the new year is here.
I'm your host, James Edwards.
Saturday evening, January 7th.
Thanks to Keith Alexander for his contributions during tonight's first hour.
Coming to you live tonight from AM 1380 WLRM Radio in downtown Memphis, Tennessee.
Going out to the AM FM affiliate stations at the Liberty News Radio Network and simulcasting online at thepoliticalcesspool.org, our official and well-visited internet headquarters.
During that last segment with Keith in the first hour, we began to transition slightly into talk about the Iowa caucuses, the fallout from what happened in Iowa on Tuesday and what it means for the Ron Paul campaign.
Again, we just touched on it briefly.
Now, we'll be getting into it a little more comprehensively and helping to dissect the matter is a very special guest, the owner of the network that syndicates the political cesspool and host of his own daily exquisite talk radio program, the Liberty Roundtable, which can be heard at libertyroundtable.com Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. Central Time.
He is, of course, our good friend, Sam Bushman.
Sam, welcome back.
Thank you so much, sir.
Delighted to be here and absolutely delighted to talk about Ron Paul.
You know, you've been supporting Ron Paul every bit as much, if not more, than we have.
We certainly share that in common as well as many other things.
And I know it has been an almost daily topic on your program.
So, you know, when going through our roller decks on who we could have on tonight, I'd be hard-pressed to find anybody more spirited than Sam Bushman to talk about this.
So it's kind of funny.
Just a quick little story about Ron Paul.
Yeah.
You know, Ron Paul's been in Congress, what, 11 times now, 22 years or whatever, 12 times, I guess now, 24 years.
I remember about 17 years ago when I first started getting into radio and doing a radio show and everything else.
I remember I used to weekly love Ron Paul's.
He used to do a phone column.
And what he'd do is he'd put this message on a phone line that you could dial in and listen to.
And it was anywhere from two to four to five to six minutes long.
He does it now on the internet and stuff.
It's still his weekly column and everything.
But he used to do it on a phone line.
And I remember I used to dial up with a regular phone line and record that thing and get audio already and play that back on my show all the time because we were even supporters of Ron Paul and what he stood for back then.
Wow.
And it just shows the evolution of the supporters of Ron Paul and how we've grown from virtually nobody with hardly any connectivity to what we've become today, which is an incredible organization of people.
Hey, that is a very interesting story, Sam.
I guess back when you were doing that, I would have been 14 years old.
So I'm still a little wet behind the ears and not quite as far advanced as you were.
But let's see, this is what I'm talking about.
You've been following Ron Paul for a long, long time.
I know when I was a guest on your show a couple of weeks ago, we were talking about his chances, among other things, in Iowa.
And I'll tell you, Sam, as I wrote on my website this week, I really sincerely expected him to win Iowa, which I guess would have probably been the zenith of his campaign.
I don't think the establishment would have allowed him to win the nomination.
But I was very much looking forward to this week being one during which there would be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth that would have inevitably followed his victory.
So anyway, he comes up in second.
It looks like he was going to come in second.
And then out of nowhere, here's Santorum, who was pulling in the single digits like a week before the caucuses.
And then he finishes, you know, eight votes behind Romney, apparently.
First of all, what do you make of that?
All right, let's take it from the top.
You know, a lot of people want to say there's a scandal there.
There's vote fraud there.
I have no doubt that's very possible.
However, as reporters, as commentators, as journalists, as whatever you want to call us, I don't think we ought to go there because we have no proof, number one and number two.
Even if we were to try to go legal and even if we were to win, you know what, it's all a non-binding thing in Iowa, and so it would make no difference anyway, whether they've snookered us or not really doesn't matter.
I'm looking at what happened with this Ron Paul thing as a tremendous, outrageous, over-the-top, delightful victory.
Okay.
And I can get into exactly why.
Is it as good as we had hoped?
No, it's not.
But you've got to look at the history.
You've got to look at the reality and you've got to look at where we are and what the mainstream press is doing about it.
And it tells you that it's just beyond belief what we've been able to accomplish.
And what we need to do is not shirk our duty, not step back, not call it a loss, not wimp out, not slow down.
We need to notch it up another level big time.
And I'm telling you, that's exactly what they don't want us to do.
And they're doing everything they can to prevent us from doing that.
And it just tells us how successful we really are and what we've really accomplished.
And I can go into the history of that, but I'm telling you right now, this is an over-the-top victory, whether anybody else wants to admit it or not.
Well, first of all, let me address two points.
I appreciate your stance on the vote fraud thing.
I mean, you know, again, there in Iowa, they actually, you know, they wrote it down on paper.
So it was a paper ballot.
Now, I know there was reports where they took the votes and counted them at an undisclosed location.
Who knows?
You know, I don't know.
I think people are gullible enough to vote for Santorum.
I was a very conservative and Christian state.
And I think they were snookered by a lot of the image that Santorum brings as the so-called Christian or evangelical candidate.
And of course, there's so much wrong with Santorum that we don't have the time to get into it.
And again, now that he has one, he snuck in there.
I mean, he peaked at truly the right time.
I mean, a week before the caucus, before people could take him seriously, before they could begin to look at his record and target the chinks in his armor.
And I submit to you that that's all mainstream press intentionally orchestrated.
No doubt about it.
Oh, no, I don't doubt it at all.
And then again, you know, the only thing people knew about Santorum going in there was, oh, yeah, he's a Christian.
He's a Christian.
Oh, yeah, we're Christians.
We got to get into this.
And he was able to come in there at just the right time and get up there and push Paul down one notch.
Now, that being said, so what I'm saying is I think the people were stupid enough to buy his line without there being massive vote fraud.
But now, Sam, you were convicting me a little bit there because I am one of the people, and I'll be honest with you, that saw that as, okay, well, I figured first, second would have been okay, but third, you know, I looked at this a little dejectedly.
All right, now let's think about first, second, and third for a second, and let's really put it in perspective of where it is and what we've gained because you've got to look at the whole picture, not part.
If you just look at that day, the fact is he's third.
You know what?
That really sucks.
We really went down.
We didn't really get near what we hoped for.
We thought he might even get a first place win, etc.
But let's look at the whole picture.
Number one, we almost had got ourselves believing he was going to be first for sure.
Therefore, it was a hard fall because we put ourselves so high.
That's right.
We were thinking third, maybe second, hopefully second.
Let's beat Gingrich.
Let's beat, you know, Perry.
And we would have been delighted with the results.
So it's how you kind of take it going into it that's number one.
We had inflated expectations, I think.
Okay, that's kind of the big problem.
Well, right now, so here's the deal then.
Yeah, go ahead.
So you look at the history of this thing, though, and you say, look, if I were to say to you four years ago, you know what?
Ron Paul's going to blow Newt Getting Rich out of the water.
Ron Paul is going to blow Rick Perry out of the water.
In fact, Ron Paul is going to come so close to Mitt Romney, Mitt Romney's going to almost choke on his own spit over it.
He's going to come so, he's going to, and we were to say that, you guys would have laughed at me and went, come on, Sam, you've lost your mind.
Well, he did.
That's exactly what has happened.
He did infinitely better, Paul did, in 2012 than he did in 2008 in Iowa.
And he's infinitely better equipped to do better going forward.
I know we're coming up on a break here, Sam.
Let me clear your throat.
We'll finish up real quick here for a second.
All I'm telling you is that we've really come a long way.
When we come back on the next segment, I want to focus on that history and what we've accomplished.
We'll do it in seconds on the political cesspool with James Edwards.
Don't go away.
There's more political cesspool coming your way right after these messages.
So, have you seen any good movies lately?
No, not really.
Why do you say it like that?
It's just that those movie trailers are so deceptive.
You know, Mike, I'll see a commercial for something that looks like a really fun, romantic comedy.
And I go to the theater.
Well, that $7.50 I'll never see again.
Disappointed?
I'm disgusted is a better word.
Hey, I did finally find a way to know a movie's content before I go see it.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, there's this website, pluggedinmag.com.
Lets me choose the movies I want to see intelligently.
Tells me what's good about a movie, what's bad.
Not only that, but it does the same thing with music and TV shows.
What's wrong?
Well, we just walked out of a movie last week.
Makes me wish I'd checked it out first.
Plugged in, huh?
Plugged inmag.com.
Make sure you get the address right.
Visit pluggedinmag.com for current movie, music, and television reviews.
Plugged inmag.com, helping you navigate through the maze of popular culture.
Here's to the crazy ones: the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them.
About the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.
Scott Bradley here.
Most Americans are painfully aware that the nation is on the wrong track and in dire straits.
Unfortunately, most political pundits only nibble around the edges when they claim to address the issues.
Even worse, many of the so-called solutions are simply rewarmed servings of what got us into the mess we currently face.
And the politicians think we're so gullible and naive that we'll buy their lies that they have reformed and now understand where they led us astray.
Unfortunately, the truth of the matter is that they simply wish to continue to hold power.
The solution to America's challenges is found in returning to the timeless principles found in the United States Constitution.
My book and lecture series will reawaken in Americans an understanding and love of the principles which made this nation the freest, most prosperous, happiest, and most respected nation on earth.

Welcome back.

And here's the host of the Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
James Edwards here with our special guest and good friend, Sam Bushman, the owner of the network.
Sam has played such an integral role in the development of our broadcast over the course of the last three years that we've been on his network.
And we look forward to a long-standing and continued relationship.
I want to remind you to check out.
Amen to that, by the way.
Well, thank you, Sam.
We want to encourage everyone to check out Sam's broadcast.
He has a daily show.
We're weekly.
He does it every day, Monday through Friday, the Liberty Roundtable, LibertyRoundtable.com.
Sam's with me tonight, longtime Ron Paul supporter and political observer, Sam Bushman.
We're talking about the fallout from the Iowa caucuses and what it means for Ron Paul's campaign going forward.
Among other things, we established during that first segment that Rick Santorum merely peaked at the right moment.
He does not have the campaign infrastructure to challenge Romney.
He doesn't have the money.
He will fizzle out and fizzle out quickly as the other candidates have done.
By the way, I agree that that's exactly what Rick Santorum will do.
Yeah, well, I just think, you know, Iowa was the perfect place for him to do well under the circumstances and under the image that the media projected of him.
Moving to New Hampshire, I mean, he's back down into single digits.
So again, Sam, I want to turn it back over to you, and certainly we want to talk about what all of this means for Ron Paul as the primaries continue to stack up going forward.
So first, I want to let you get back on the point you were making.
It is my contention that Ron Paul is doing better than we ever in our wildest dreams could imagine.
And I know all of us would say, you know what?
No, come on, Sam.
Him being in the White House for two terms would be what would hope.
But let's, you know, not talk about hope in a sense of what we just wish could be true, but what we really thought could be reality.
Because that's kind of where you got to go.
Did we really think would get the discussion of abolishing the Federal Reserve on the national stage?
Did we really think would get the discussion of foreign policy to be so central to the Republican, almost to the point of fracturing the whole Republican Party over it?
Did we really think that Ron Paul's ideas of conservative values and constitutional principles and libertarian viewpoints and everything else would become the order of the day to where it would basically be fracturing the whole entire Republican Party?
I don't think so.
I don't think we thought that at all.
I thought we, you know, viewed, did we ever think we could really raise literally millions and millions and millions of dollars?
Did we really think that we could put our candidate, the people's candidate, really on the national stage to force himself into every debate to the point where now, okay, they first started out and said, number one, he can't raise any money at all.
Well, the mainstream press has been proven they're liars.
That isn't true.
They said, well, there's not really people supporting him.
It's just robots on the internet.
They lied.
Now he has bigger crowds than everyone.
Romney even had to admit it in a national debate to his chagrin.
We then bring thousands of people out there.
They say, oh, well, he's not pro-life.
And then he's delivered 4,000 babies.
Oh, he doesn't know much about health care.
Oh, he happens to be a physician in health care.
Oh, he doesn't know much about the military.
Oh, he's the only one that served in the military.
And we go on and on and on.
In fact, in the 2008 event, they wouldn't even let him attend his own Republican convention.
Remember this?
And what happened is we created our own convention outside that rivaled theirs and got media attention to their chagrin.
No one else has been able to do that before.
Now we raised $13 million in this last quarter, blew Newt Getting Rich out of the water.
He couldn't even raise close to as much money.
Now it's being said that Ron Paul's top tier, which they used to say he could never get out of single digits, never top tier, not real.
Now they've gone to this bogus term called unelectable.
What does that mean?
Ron Paul, out of the last 12 years, has been elected, what, six times?
Out of the last 20 years, 10 times?
Newt Gingrich hasn't even been elected once in the last 10 years.
If you want to talk about electable, let's go, baby.
Okay.
So now they're using these cloak words to try to destroy what Ron Paul is.
But the more they do that, the more people see how deceptive, how evil, how manipulative the mainstream press is.
Now you get a situation where not only is he top tier, but remember, he got 21%.
Santorum and Romney got 25%.
There's hardly, I mean, there's not a lot of votes different in that.
You got 30,000 votes to 25,000 votes about.
But then when you go to the next candidate who was Newt Getting Rich, you have to drop all the way down to 13,000 votes.
The bottom line is we just in Iowa distinguished that, you know what, Ron Paul's top tier and poor Newt Gingrich is not.
Now Gingrich can play games all day with that reality, but that's where the real issue is.
And so they used to say, Ron, you're an idiot.
You're for smoking pot.
That was their claim.
You know, you're for marijuana.
Oh, Ron, you're an idiot.
You want to get us killed by the al-Qaeda.
Oh, Ron, and they made all these claims to try to down Ron.
They realize now it hasn't done any good.
Now they're to their last straw, which is the race card, James.
That's their last straw, the last trick in their bag to try to derail Ron Paul and the fact that he's a general, mainstream, well-liked candidate.
In fact, only 37% of the people supporting Ron Paul in New Hampshire now, and that's going to be going true to South Carolina too, are going to be Republicans.
You've got a ton of libertarians.
You've got a ton of independents.
You've got a ton of Democrats because they support him on the pro-peace movement.
They want to call it anti-war.
I call it pro-peace.
Let's call it what it is.
And so now they're just going, oh my gosh, now he's not even a Republican.
See, he's really a liberal.
Now, you got Michael Savage running around on the radio going, oh, Ron Paul's a liberal.
He's not even really conservative.
They're doing everything they can.
But I'm telling you, when they whip out that race card and will not let it go, even though it's been proven false, one of the leaders of the NAACP said he's not a racist.
That's just not true.
But they still hammer that home.
It tells me they are absolutely desperate, and it's their only card they have left.
Sam, you have an absolutely outstanding commentary.
I just shaking my head as I listen to the points that you made because, you know, I'm an effusive, gregarious, eternal optimist type of guy.
But I'll tell you, Tuesday I was a little dejected at the finish for Paul.
But you put it into the perspective of the whole scope of things over the course of the last four years.
And I think, yes, exactly.
Now, let me make my last point to hammer this home.
I hit it.
Barack Obama ran on a humble foreign policy and said, we're going to back out of Iraq.
We're going to mellow out George Bush's kind of over the top on his foreign policy.
That was the same foreign policy that George Bush ran on before, too.
They always run on that policy, but they always break ranks and go with the big, bloated military-industrial complex kind of an idea and just become a war-mongering nation building out of control military.
Okay, Ron Paul's running on this humble foreign policy that says we need to reduce the size of the military.
Then they say, oh, you're weak on war.
You're weak on defense.
It isn't true.
He wants to defend America.
He wants to know more about America's borders, not the border of Afghanistan, to prove the point.
So then now, Barack Obama just released that he wants to downsize the military.
He wants to create a lean, mean military.
So now Ron Paul just took a page.
I'm sorry.
Barack Obama just took a page out of Ron Paul's playbook, sir.
What does that tell you?
Every point that you make is spot on accurate.
Every point that you have made is spot on accurate.
And I'll tell you, even you have kind of boosted my spirits with regards to this presidential campaign.
But here's the thing.
Think about it.
What if we then, what if every one of us Americans ratcheted up a notch?
What if we threw in another hundred bucks?
What if we decided that 10 times more of us are going to rally?
What if we decided every day we're going to have Ron Paul signs?
We're going to have Ron Paul stickers.
We're going to show up at events.
We're going to, and we just ratcheted up two or three notches.
I'm telling you, the mainstream press would not know what to do.
Well, this brings me to my last question, and that was a perfect segue.
I think we all know that Santorum is going to falter.
I mean, he's going to fall off.
He's going to join the rest of the lower tier.
The campaign is already over for Michelle Bachman.
It might as well be over for Rick Perry.
Newt Gingrich is going to make a final stand in South Carolina and he'll have to fall on his sword after that.
So I think in two weeks, it's going to be down to Paul and Romney.
But going into New Hampshire right now, the polls are pretty dire.
I think he's got a 20-point lead on Paul.
And so what happens in the grand scheme of things?
I mean, does Paul finish a distant second with maybe a third of the delegates?
There's a good chance that could happen.
But remember, that's what the mainstream press wants us to believe.
They're the ones that make the polls and they're the ones that report on the polls, right?
So we don't know how true that really is in terms of reality.
But what we know is this.
Whenever the mainstream press says something, nine times out of ten, it isn't true or it isn't the right view, the reality check.
And so they're the ones that said that we couldn't raise any money, remember?
Well, perception is the ultimate reality.
They want to embed these ideas into the general public's mind so they won't support Paul because everybody likes to support a woman.
That's exactly right.
And so they will certainly have a no doubt huge influence on the outcome.
I agree with that.
But more Americans are waking up and every time they lie, play games and deceive and every time we do better than they thought we would or they say we would, every time they lose credibility and we gain credibility every single time and it's not about to stop.
Even if Ron Paul doesn't win and somebody else starts to become a candidate such as Rand Paul or somebody else, we still gain credibility every time they try to black us out and they lose.
Ladies and gentlemen, Sam Bushman, the incomparable Sam Bushman, checking him out at LibertyRoundtable.com.

Anytime, my friend, Godspeed.

All right, welcome back to the show.
Folks, if you enjoyed the commentary of Sam Bushman, and I know that you did, because I did, you'll love listening to his own show.
He's there for three hours.
We're here three hours a week.
He's three hours every day, Monday through Friday, the Liberty Roundtable show, LibertyRoundtable.com.
And of course, Sam also moonlights as the owner of the network that syndicates both programs.
And we're certainly, as a program, better off because of his leadership and friendship.
But the conversation that Sam and I were having on the air continued during the commercial break.
And he's exactly right about everything he said.
And what you didn't get to hear, he revisited the point that, you know, they're playing this race card.
It's the last thing they could possibly do to Paul.
They've done everything else.
They've blacked him out of the media.
The more successful, the higher he goes in the polls, the more people who gravitate towards his campaign, it's like a yin and yang situation here.
The more all that happens, his amount of media coverage plummets.
And then, of course, now, and we covered it last week on the show, or perhaps the week before, we covered it extensively on the website.
This whole casting him as a racist is very sad, but oh, so typical.
Last week, folks, we did the top 10 moments for the Political Cesspool in 2011.
Last week was our New Year's Eve show, and it was our last show of 2011.
And again, we brought in the top 10 moments of TPC 2011.
We got another top 10 list for you right now.
It was written by our longtime co-host and TPC staffer Winston Smith.
Of course, as you know, and we ask that you continue to pray for Winston Smith, a finer man you cannot find.
We've been very blessed to be able to work with Winston on the air and off since 2005 when he joined the staff of the show.
You'll remember earlier this year or earlier last year, now it was, Winston Smith lost his hearing.
He is clinically deaf at this point.
He is awaiting, he was a member of the Navy, and he's awaiting the VA to provide him with cochlear implants.
And so until Winston Smith hearing is repaired, he cannot be a part of the on-air broadcast.
But that doesn't stop his mind and what a mind it is.
Winston Smith every year provides for us the top 10 hateful quotes of 2011.
I feel it doesn't feel right not having him on the show to read them to you.
This will go up on the website this week, but he has asked me to read them in his absence this year, and we ask that you continue to pray for Winston for a speedy recovery.
It's already been many months that he's gone without hearing, waiting for government health care to help him out.
But we hope that he'll be back soon and we love him.
He has, again, prepared for us the top 10 hateful quotes of 2011.
Number 10, Memphis socialite Nina Taylo makes the list for groveling on her knees at the feet of a black man begging forgiveness for her and her family's behavior during the so-called civil rights era, saying, forgive me, forgive me on behalf of my family for the ugliness of that time.
Praise God, we have a beautiful Lord who brings about hope and restoration.
Well, as Winston writes, if you look up self-hate in the dictionary, you're going to see her picture.
Her Kakamame theatrics captured by a conveniently present commercial appeal reporter only worsened the irredeemably wretched and grotesque state of white-black relations in this sad city.
Nina, they'll never forgive you, and they still hate you.
Number 10 on the most hateful worst quotes of 2011 goes to University of North Carolina Chapel Hill student Quinn Mattney, who said he had been attacked by a drunken college-age man who called him an anti-gay epithet and branded his left wrist.
The UNC administration was giddy about the chance to display their political correctness credentials regarding the recent abominations.
They were ready to call the feds and tell them that they had a sexual orientation hate crime on their hands.
University Chancellor Holden Thorpe broke the sound barrier in getting the word out, declaring as a university community, we condemn this act of violence.
Well, you know the end of the story, as in most cases, this hate crime charge that was filed with campus police was, in fact, a hoax.
It was false.
The university will not report it as a hate crime.
Yeah, a false hate crime accusation courtesy of homosexual Quinn Mattney.
Number eight on Winston's list of the worst quotes, worst instances of 2011, the media.
The media makes the list in general for many things.
Among them, what they didn't say, to wit, ignoring the story of Chrissy Lee Polis, a white girl who was beaten to a pulp by a black girl, black women at the Rosedale McDonald's.
This wasn't just newsworthy until word got out that Chrissy's real name is Christopher and that her real sex is a man.
Yes, what happened was what was apparently a woman went in and was beat to a pulp by a group of black girls.
It wasn't news.
Now, when it came out that this woman, quote-unquote, was actually a transvestite, it became a hate crime.
And the media began talking about the story as if it was just, you know, the biggest thing that there ever was.
Number eight on Winston's list of the, well, these aren't necessarily even quotes, I guess, but these are, you know, the top 10 most reprehensible stories, some of them quotes, I guess, too.
Number seven, CNN contributing columnist L.Z. Granderson, a politically correct manifestation, if there ever was one.
You can summarize most of Granderson's articles thusly.
I saw some white people.
They were bad.
Their racism made them bad.
In one article, Winston writes, he whined about being miffed that white people don't celebrate Thanksgiving like black people do.
In another article, he said, people in country music are afraid to deal with race and to confront racism in their ranks.
His solution for the problem is for country singers to sing about the incident in which some white kids in a pickup truck ran over a black man.
At the article's end, Granerson quotes some lines from a Kenny Chesney song that deals with alleged racism.
But wait a second, didn't Granterson just say that country music is afraid to deal with racism?
The problem isn't that country music doesn't deal with race.
The problem is that it doesn't deal with race in the way that Granerson wants it to.
Hey, LZ, everybody knows country music is a European-American art form.
You're black and your anti-white hatred made you choose to critique country music.
There's more to that, and you'll have to read it on the website.
Again, all of these are going to be posted at thepolitical cesspool.org.
Thinking about making it the feature article on Monday, some of Winston's top 10 most hateful quotes, hateful instances of 2011.
Number six, the SPLC has to make the list, so they're probably the Law Center, bullying the State Department into depriving our friend Jared Taylor of his right to support his family.
If you're not familiar with this story, Jared Taylor, the editor of the American Renaissance magazine, is also an official translator for the Japanese embassy.
He was sanctioned by the United States State Department.
Anyway, the SPLC bullied the State Department into taking Jared off the list of approved translators.
And that's number six on the list.
A triple plague comes in at number five.
First, the University of Minnesota Duluth student and Black Panther boy Blair Jordan Moses.
Second, Susanna Paleo Woodward.
And third, the Duluth News Tribune.
We covered this story on the show and on our website.
As Youth for Western Civilization member Phil Cleary passed out copies of the U.S. Constitution, Moses, the black guy at this University of Minnesota, threatened to shoot him.
A school administrator came in, and instead of dealing with the threat from the black guy to the white guy, she began reading the Youth for Western Civilization literature and said, is this a white supremacist group?
Because, you know, they don't hate Western civilization, so they must be white supremacists.
The local newspaper there defended Moses, the black guy who threatened to shoot the white guy for passing out something praising Western civilization, letting him justify his threat with 123 words, while the Youth for Western Civilization member got 34 words in the article.
And working with the SPLC's Heidi Byrick to try to make Cleary and Youth for Western Civilization into racist.
That is the number five on our list of the top 10 most hateful instances of 2011.
Number four, MSNBC's Ed Schultz for comparing Tea Party members to sewer rats.
You know, Tea Party members are white, So they are subjected to all sorts of nefarious commentary that would never fly for any other protected minority group.
MSNBC's Ed Schultz calls them sewer rats.
Couldn't hardly see him labeling a black advocacy group as such.
Number three on the list of the top 10 most hateful instances, hateful quotes of 2011 compiled by our good friend Winston Smith, the Anti-Defamation League, the SPLC, La Raza Cartel, the National Black Flash Mob for the Advancement of Color People, that's the NAACP, and the Congressional Black Flash Mob Caucus, just because of what they are, the leading producers in this country's hate industry.
Isn't it interesting that those organizations who supposedly exist to advance goodwill and well-being for everyone, especially minority groups, are in fact, if you pay attention, the biggest proponents of hate, anti-white hate in this case, that the country has in operation today.
We're going to get back to the top two right after these words.
Stay tuned, everybody.
I'm James Edwards, and I'll be right back.

And here's the host of the Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody, welcome back to the show.
In that last segment, we were reading to you the top 10 most hateful instances of 2011 prepared by Winston Smith, our co-host, who has not been on the air recently because of some medical issues related to his hearing, but he still contributes articles to the website, and we hope to have him back on the air in short order.
We were down to the number one and number two spot on the top 10 most hateful instances of 2011.
Number two, Attorney General Eric Holder makes the list for his incompetence and demonstrable anti-white bigotry, especially when he said racists, meaning white people, are behind the criticism of his involvement with the hare-brained, fast-and-furious debacle and his bungled cover-up in the aftermath.
This is a way to get the president because of the way that I can be identified with him, both due to the nature of the relationship and, you know, the fact that we're both African-American.
The accusation was so potentially explosive that not even Obama would touch it.
Hey, Eric, you're not some big-mouth chip-on-the-shoulder black reverend on a city council making a backside of himself by claiming the phrase black financial black hole is racist.
You're the Attorney General of the United States of America, and that kind of toxic rhetoric can have serious consequences.
That you would utter such vomitous further proves your ineptitude.
When it comes to playing the race card, you're the dealer and you've got a stacked deck.
Eric Holder, number two on the top 10 most hateful manifestations of 2011.
Number one, Jonathan Perkins.
This is a story, of course, too, that we covered on the radio program earlier this year and on the website.
Jonathan Perkins, who you may remember was the University of Virginia law student who lied about being harassed by campus police.
He even filed, as someone else did in our top 10 list, a false police report.
While the police investigated the incident, the university was thrown into the predictable anti-racist or anti-white witch hunt.
When Perkins's lie was uncovered, his rickety justification was, I wrote the article to bring attention to the topic of police misconduct, even though the police misconduct never occurred.
You know the story.
This guy said he was just walking around.
He's black.
He was just walking around the University of Virginia campus and two white police officers came and accosted him and bruised him up, beat him, whatever.
Files a hate crime, files a police report.
They investigated as a hate crimes issue.
It turns out once again to be a hoax.
And he said, well, yeah, it didn't happen, but it does happen.
And I wanted to bring attention to the cases when it's real.
And the charges were dropped.
And he didn't face any sort of retribution for filing false police reports, which is an actual crime, unlike that which he said happened to him.
What are we going to do?
Well, I hope you enjoyed that.
And certainly we appreciate Winston for putting it together.
And it will be appearing on the Political Cesspool's website this week, so you can read it for yourself with all the links backing up those claims at thepolitical cesspool.org.
Now, we've got a lot more to cover tonight and not very much time.
We did tell you about how CNN pulled the live feed of a soldier who was talking about voting for Ron Paul as soon as he got in.
This was a live feed from the Ron Paul campaign headquarters in Iowa on the caucus night.
This Paul supporter showed up in his military uniform and was starting to talk about why he supported Ron Paul.
And when he got to the point that we don't need to be going into wars for Israel, CNN, all of a sudden, Wolf Blitzer broke in and said, we're having technical difficulties and we got to go to this, you know, we've got to go to the Romney campaign headquarters now.
Listen, folks, that is either flagrant censorship or one heck of a coincidence.
You can watch it for yourself.
We actually have the video.
The video of this happening of CNN saying they've got technical difficulties when this guy started to make an interesting point.
Wolf Blitzer cuts in real quick.
We got it for you.
We got the video.
It's right there.
You can watch it right now, thepoliticalsesspool.org.
Just go to the blog entry entitled CNN Pools Live Feed of Soldier Talking About Voting for Ron Paul.
And you can watch it for yourself.
Some good news.
Here's some good news.
Sales of guns, gun sales, skyrocketed, not just in Memphis, but across America right before Christmas.
You've probably heard about this on the national news, but we covered it as well.
And I love to see freedom-loving Americans taking advantage of their Second Amendment rights, standing up and speaking out.
We also have a video story to complement this article.
A well-to-armed society is a polite society, as they say.
And you can go read all about this.
Hundreds of thousands of gun permits, background checks conducted and issued right before Christmas.
An early idea for your next Christmas gift.
A gun.
Give everybody the gift of self-protection.
Now, another thing, you know, we've moved from 2011 to 2012.
If you believe the Mayans, you will know that this is the end of the world.
The world is going to end in 2012, so maybe we won't be able to have that top 10 list next year because we won't be here.
Well, you all know about the Mayan calendar.
People say that, you know, they predicted the world is going to end on December, what, 21st, 2012.
My take on it, look, the Maya, like the Aztecs, were savage civilizations, primitive civilizations with robust populations numbering well into the hundreds of thousands.
Now, in the end, they were vanquished with relative ease by a few hundred Spanish conquistadors.
A few hundred Spanish conquistadors versus hundreds of thousands of indigenous Central and South Americans, Aztec, Maya, Inca, etc.
I simply just throw Christianity out the window.
We all know that the Bible says no one can know or predict when the end will come.
I simply have a hard time believing that such a primitive society would have been smart enough to predict the end of the world for the rest of us when they couldn't see it coming for themselves.
Now, I have always had a fascination with the pre-Columbian cultures.
I love studying them when I was a kid, reading about them.
In my eighth grade history class, in fact, we were split into groups and given the assignment of making a video or movie report in which we were to write a script and act out a story from history.
Now, I was the leader of my group in that memorable eighth grade history class, and I decided that we were going to film a movie about the fall of the Aztec Empire.
I named it Spain versus the Aztecs, a clash of titans, and I even casted myself as Montezuma.
I wasn't Hernan Cortez.
I was Montezuma in the movie.
I actually still have that tape from that project at my home entertainment center back at the house.
But anyway, the biggest thing about this story is that it's really spawned a great discussion in the comment thread.
You know, when you go to the thepolitical cesspool.org and you're reading any of these articles that we post daily, you know, join the discussion of an article that tickles your fancy and engage in a debate or conversation with other political access pool listeners.
Some very great comments have been posted thus far to this article about that Mayan calendar.
Don't sell your house, folks.
Don't cash it all in and go on an 11-month vacation.
I think you'd be very disappointed on December 22nd of this year if you did.
I want to be sure to be able to work this in before the end of the hour.
Louis Andrews.
I don't know if many of you listening to this show know who Louis Andrews is or was.
He never made a appearance on the show.
But I certainly, as a guest, I certainly, though, believe that we should honor our heroes after they have gone on to receive their final reward.
Respectfully remembering those who have sacrificed for their kinsmen, our kinsmen, is an important part of our culture.
That being said, it's with a heavy heart that I share with you the passing of Louis Andrews, who died last week.
Louis was the founder of the National Policy Institute and the Washington Summit Publishers, among other things.
You'll remember it was the National Policy Institute that put on the big event in Washington, D.C. earlier this year and the memorable event at the National Press Club that I had the opportunity to speak at.
For those of you who did know Louie or had the pleasure of working with him, I'm sure that you'll echo my sentiments and the sentiments of Richard Spencer, who is now the executive director of the National Policy Institute.
We have Richard's remarks there on the blog entry dedicated to Louis, memorializing Louis.
I had the honor of knowing this man for the past few years and my life was made better for it.
The country needs more men like him.
Our cause has suffered a tremendous loss with the passing of Louis Andrews, but we move forward in memory of a man who set for us a great example.
Now, for those of you who didn't have the opportunity to meet Louis, I encourage you to watch yet another video clip that we have put in to this article at thepolitical cesspool.org.
Men of courage and determination like him are few and far between, and we can't afford to lose any of them.
But you'll see Louis in this clip being interviewed by an NBC affiliate in Augusta, Georgia.
And you'll know why I sing such high praises of the man after watching this one simple interview.
Well, folks, we've got to take another break.
We covered a lot of ground there in one segment.
When we come back, part two of an interview that we started last week with film star Sonny Landam.
He was our last guest during the last hour of the last show of 2011.
He's now going to be our featured guest tonight during the first show of 2012.
We're going to pick up where we left off with Sonny right after these words.
You're not going to want to miss it.
The Political Assess Pool continues with the third and final hour of tonight's broadcast right after this.
Believe it or not, there's a third hour of tonight's installment of the Political Cesspool coming your way right after these messages.
