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 back to the Political Cesspool Radio Program.
James Edwards here with you.
Saturday night, January 14th, from AM 1380, WLRM Radio Studios in Memphis, Tennessee, going after the AMF and affiliates of the Liberty News Radio Network and simulcasting online at thepolitical cesspool.org.
Wherever our fans may have internet access, Brazil, Bangladesh, Sweden, Memphis.
People in town could be listening at their house instead of on one of the two stations in town that carry us.
AM 1380 and AM 1600.
However, you're tuning in tonight.
We're lucky, thankful, and happy to have you.
Welcome to the third and final hour tonight.
You know, last week we had Sam Bushman on, host of the Liberty Roundtable.
Sam also owns the Liberty News Radio Network, who syndicates our show.
And Sam, you know, we were talking with Sam last week as the GOP contenders geared up for New Hampshire.
And Sam said he made such, he provided such astute commentary that we had to have him back on to talk about where Ron Paul stands now after a strong second place finish in New Hampshire.
And one of the things that Sam said last week that was just so incredibly thoughtful was that, you know, if you base your opinion on Paul's performance on the level of expectations you had a week before Iowa, it could be a little bit dejecting.
If you base it upon the way he was positioned in 2008 and carry that over to today, he has exceeded all expectations.
Where does he go now?
You know, Sam, I was just looking at the delegate count.
He's already up there in delegates.
Yes, he is indeed.
In fact, it's kind of fascinating because we talked last week and that was before the New Hampshire event.
And what's interesting is he took second in that event.
They're trying to act like it's no big deal again because Mitt Romney got a lot more than he got supposedly.
But you know what?
He almost got 25% of the vote.
In fact, he got more.
Listen to this carefully.
Ron Paul got more votes and more delegates.
He got more votes than Rick Perry, Nuke Getting Rich, and what's that guy's name?
Let's see.
He got 1% or something.
Huntsman, yeah.
I remember his name.
I'm just teasing.
He got more than all three of them combined, sir.
Let me tell you this, Sam.
I'm looking at a very interesting graphic.
I would not suggest Wikipedia as a research tool when it comes to something political.
But when it comes to hard numbers, you know, they're pretty much on target.
I'm looking now, if you just go to wikipedia.org and you search for Republican primaries, right now, you look at the number of votes, okay, popular vote between the two states that have already gone to the polls, obviously Iowa and New Hampshire.
Mitt Romney at 127,000, Ron Paul at 83,000, and then the third biggest vote-getter thus far is Rick Santorum, who is fading fast after New Hampshire at 53,000.
And then everyone else has 42,000 or under.
So Ron Paul, in other words, he's gotten 22% of the vote compared to Romney's 34, Santorum and third at 14.
He, if you just think about that.
20 to 14 is a huge drop from second to third as well.
That's significant.
And that's both of these states combined.
Correct.
That's the total vote.
And he's also got 10 delegates to Romney's 25.
No one else is close to that.
So you look at it.
It's already a two-man race.
Where does it go from here?
Well, here's where it goes from here, in my opinion.
Ron Paul has several goals in mind.
And most people think, oh, you know, our goal is to be president.
And if we're not president, it's a waste of time.
You know, we're not going to make it.
Don't you know Ron can't win?
And I don't look at it that way at all.
I look at it.
His campaign has three goals.
One is to get elected, obviously.
And we certainly want to work towards that, how realistic that is in the real scheme of things.
Ron Paul was asked that on the mainstream press, and they said, do you really see yourself in the White House, Ron?
And Ron said, no, not really.
He's just being candid, okay?
We're not trying to fool ourselves.
You know, some people think, you guys are just drinking too much Kool-Aid.
No, no, no.
We're just not stupid.
We're very intelligent.
We realize that, hey, that's the ultimate goal.
But we also realize how difficult that will be to obtain.
However, give it two or three or four more election cycles if we keep up what we're doing and we will win.
And they won't be able to stop us if we do not give up.
If we ratchet it up every time another level, every time another level, they've got another thing coming.
So now think about it this way.
Ron Paul's goal is to educate people all the way to August about shutting down the Federal Reserve, getting rid of dishonest money and replacing it with honest money, about shutting down this belligerent foreign policy that we've got that spends ourselves into oblivion and creates enemies and blowback and ill-content around the world.
Okay?
About getting rid of eventually the social security system and this bogus health care system that we've got, about the proper role of limited government, about how the foreign wars are eating us alive, about how the drug wars are eating us alive.
I mean, he goes on and on and on and educates folks.
These are all national stage discussions where they were not before.
So that's huge.
But think of it another level.
What if we end up with a significant number of delegates as we go across the country?
He doesn't win, but he comes in strong every time.
We blow the lid off the mainstream press's lie that he was not electable.
He's more electable than Getting Rich, more electable than Huntsman, and more electable than Rick Perry, all three combined, according to the New Hampshire voters.
Not some poll, not some good idea, according to the voters in New Hampshire.
He's also electable compared to the voters who were in Iowa as well.
He left there one of the top three.
So that gets blown out of the water.
The mainstream press loses credibility every time this happens.
So we're gaining ground there.
Now, you get a ton of delegates across the country, even though you can't win.
What if you got, oh, 15% of the delegates, 20% of the delegates, whatever the number be?
If those delegates believe in honest money and auditing slash abolishing the Federal Reserve, if those candidates believe in no foreign aid, period, shut it all down, bring the troops home.
We're not going to spend one penny less on defense, though.
We believe in a strong defense for America.
The Constitution calls for it.
We believe in it.
Now we're going to take our influence from the delegates to real change in the Republican Party.
That has merit, and that needs to be our real goal.
Remember, he wasn't even allowed at his own Republican convention in 2008.
He couldn't even go.
Now he's going to go into the next one with significant delegates to say, you will listen to me.
You can pretend you won't, but you will, because I've got such an organization on the ground that I can force you to.
Yeah, and he's not going to surrender those delegates, Sam, as you know.
This is a guy who is sincere to a cause, not a party.
And we only wish that the other candidates could say the same.
Now, I don't know if he'll go independent at some point, depending on how he's treated by the Republicans.
I don't know that.
He said right now he has no plans to do so, but he continues to leave the door open.
I don't know that, and I don't want to speculate there.
What I want to focus on right now is we, the people, took third with Ron Paul in Iowa.
We took second in New Hampshire.
What's it going to look like in South Carolina?
That's where we're going next on the 21st, a week from today, James.
If he finishes strong there, more delegates in his camp will be able to do that.
That's right.
Isn't that going to be exciting?
Because South Carolina poll numbers will be coming back as the Cessboll is broadcast in real time next Saturday.
So that'll be incredible to behold.
So all I'm telling you is it's about garnering delegates.
It's about raising money.
It's about creating an organization on the ground that can make sure that his message, which really is our message, the people's message, is heard, James.
Well, that's right, Sam.
And again, I know we're coming up on break here pretty quickly, but well, we're coming up on break right now.
So I'll tell you what, let's just continue this for the first couple of minutes of the next segment and we'll wrap this up because I have a couple of follow-up points I want to make to some of the things that you've brought to the audience's attention.
So stay tuned, everybody.
James Edwards, Sam Bushman, our guest right now in the Cessboat.
We'll be back right after this.
Listen to misunderstand me, baby.
So 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, like, I'll see a commercial for something that looks like a really fun, romantic comedy.
Then I go to the theater.
Well, that's $7.50 I'll never see again.
Disappointed?
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?
Pluggedinmag.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.
It's the story of a lost city.
Lost opportunity.
Lost hope.
A story of failed policies.
Failed leadership.
A story of smooth-talking politicians.
Games of he said, she said, rhetoric, and division.
One man has stood apart, stood strong and true.
Voting against every tax increase, every unbalanced budget, every time.
Standing up to the Washington machine, guided by principle.
Ron Paul, the one who will stop the spending, save the dollar, create jobs, bring peace.
The one who will restore liberty.
Ron Paul, the one who can beat Obama and restore America now.
I'm Ron Paul, and I approve this message.
As the United States boldly stepped forward in the glorious light provided by its new Constitution in 1787, the nations of the earth were in awe of the newfound strength and hope of this free land.
Today, the nation stands at a crossroads.
A divergence from the original intent put forth in the United States Constitution has brought grave threats to our beloved nation.
A miracle is needed if the United States is to survive.
That miracle is again the pure application of the United States Constitution.
I'm Scott Bradley.
In my To Preserve the Nation book and lecture series, I bring forth truths that will help raise up a new generation of statesmen like those noble Americans who founded this land.
Vigorous application of these principles will invigorate and restore the nation, and we may become again the freest, most prosperous, most respected, and happiest nation on earth.

And here's the host of the political cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody here.
We're having so much fun with Sam Bushman.
Sam's making so many good points.
We had to extending for another segment.
I'm glad he doesn't charge me by the minute.
He'd get expensive.
I like Sam's commentary.
We're talking about Ron Paul here.
And, you know, as I said last week on the website during my post-Iowa assessment, but before New Hampshire voted on Tuesday, at worst, Ron Paul is going to finish second in the GOP field when the primary season is finally over.
That is at worst.
And while that may not be the victory we were hoping for, we all want Ron Paul to be president.
At least I do.
It certainly cannot be dismissed.
Now, and we're not pretending we don't want that.
I'm not suggesting that.
I'm just saying to put things in their real perspective and think about it long term is all I'm trying to say.
Yeah, but see, and here's the thing, though.
One of the flaws with, I think, conservatives, I think this afflicts conservatives more than liberals.
If we don't get what we want right now, then we retreat from the battlefield and we have to start all over again from scratch the next time.
You look at the ADL, for instance, as they were attempting to get hate crimes legislation passed here in America.
I mean, they have been defeated time and time and time and time again.
And every congressional season, they bring it back.
You know, we need to have that sort of tenacity.
And I think the Ron Paul voters do.
Now, not since Buchanan in 96 has a Republican contender so mobilized our base.
And I think it can easily be argued now that Ron Paul is passing the amount of influence that Pat had in 96.
Santorum's fallen off the plank, as we predicted, Sam.
He's falling off sharply in New Hampshire, and he's going to continue to fall.
It's essentially now a two-man race between Romney and Paul.
Although, let's be frank, you know, Romney is in the driver's seat.
You had a couple of good points that you brought up in the break, Sam, that I want to get you to make.
I think that Paul simply has too many people in his camp to let them dissipate, win or lose, when the voting is over later this summer.
How's he going to apply this army of support, Sam?
And keep in mind, right now, the delegate count is 25 to 10, Romney versus Paul.
You got to get 1,144 delegates to steal the nomination.
This thing is a long, long way from over.
No doubt about it.
And let's say Ron Paul even has several hundred that are locked up on the same issue.
And that's the point we need to understand.
That's what we need to really think about and say, hey, can we influence this thing?
Does it take all the delegates to win?
Or does it take enough of us to really push our agenda into the mix?
Our agenda is the Constitution.
Our agenda is the protection of life, liberty, and property.
Our agenda is no rogue government, no out-of-control bureaucrats, the proper role of very limited but very defined enumerated government power, where the balance of power is the order of the land, not just rogue thugs doing whatever they want to.
And that message is very clear.
And Ron Paul, they used to say Ron didn't have any supporters.
Now they basically say blatantly on public national TV in the debates, well, whenever I go somewhere, Ron Paul people are everywhere, but they're radical.
They're crazy.
And then they used to say, well, it's just nothing but a bunch of libertarians.
Then they said, oh, wow, he's really crazy.
He's anti-war.
It's just anti-war Democrats that want to start, that want to somehow sabotage the Republicans.
Now they say, well, wait a minute.
He brings Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, Constitutionalists.
And they say, wow, he's got a broad base of support.
This is amazing.
He's an old man rock star.
Now they try to say that to try to make it sound like, hey, we're all just running around drinking rock star.
It's not a credible campaign.
But again, they're lying.
The agenda is very clear, very direct.
It's been the same agenda for 20 plus years.
It will continue to be the same.
And it attracts people who want the rule of law, who don't want to go to war, who do want to have honest money, who do want the federal government to shrink in size, who do want honesty and integrity there.
That's what this is about.
And so now they say, well, he's got a broad-based support.
It's really broad, but it's not very deep.
That's their next claim that we're going to debunk as he gets more and more delegates all across the country, sir.
And Sam, you know, this is the thing.
You look, he, his ideology, let me put it this way, our ideology.
You know, as I said, and we've said it before, I think that, you know, I certainly agree with Ron Paul on a great number of the issues.
And I think that the listening audience of this radio program does.
I know that the listeners of yours do, Sam.
To say that Ron Paul represents our message and is advancing our message is to state the truth.
His message is our message.
Our message is his.
And his message makes up a great percentage of the Republican Party right now based upon what the voters in the GOP primary, which are, of course, the rock hard Republicans.
That's what they're telling us.
That's not what we're speculating.
You base it off election results.
Ron Paul's ideology is a growing force in the Republican Party.
How are they going to deal with that moving forward?
And not only is it his message, our message, but I submit to you that it's the message of the rule of law.
And it's also the message of the founding fathers.
So it is a good company here.
It's incredible that this message, and Ron Paul is such a purist, and that's why you have to love him.
He does not compromise on anything, even if he stands alone.
And so oftentimes that's the case.
It's just so encouraging to me that in 2012, after all of these decades of, you know, anti-American politics being the establishment norm, that a purist like Paul could come in and have, listen, he is still in the running right now to win this thing.
Even if he doesn't, he's going to have a huge percentage of the Republican vote.
That this could happen after so many years of drifting away from these principles is hugely encouraging.
And this incredible growth is even after the mainstream press has virtually done all they can to shut it down, and they've been not successful.
They've failed at it.
The more they try not to now, the more we get the word out, the more they either look like fools because they're wrong, or they look like absolute neocons and they lie and they betray.
Okay, for example, Bain Capital, which is Romney's company.
Do you know that a company is a big stakeholder in clear channel slash premiere radio communications, which is Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, all of those big guys?
No wonder they're all kind, huh?
No wonder they have this because they're all paid millions of dollars from Bain Capital, which is Romney.
Now, really, how he can run for an election and not have that be exposed is interesting enough in the mainstream press.
But anyway, I digress.
How are we going to handle this going forward?
Well, we're going to have to see if we're going to go third party like independent with Ron Paul, whether we're going to stay with the Republican Party.
But make no mistake, what we will do is we will find other leaders, such as a Rand Paul, for instance, or maybe a Mike Lee, who knows who else.
And we will find other candidates that will carry the ball.
I don't want to say for Ron Paul because Ron Paul's just a person.
This isn't about Ron Paul.
That's right.
That's right.
I'm glad he carries the ball.
Don't misunderstand me.
He's a great quarterback or a great guy running up the center of the field.
He turned the corner and sprinted for a lot of yards.
No question.
Don't misunderstand me.
But it's not about Ron.
It's about our agenda, which is the rule of law and the Constitution.
It's about limited government.
And whether it's Ron or somebody else, what we need to do is keep this incredible organization and coalition on the ground.
And that's why Ron started the campaign for liberty and other organizations because it wasn't about him.
And he knew he was getting old.
And he knows someday he won't be there.
Pretty soon he'll be sitting in his armchair watching elections at 85 years old, watching other people going, yeah, buddy.
And he'll know that he was involved in it.
But it isn't about Ron.
No, you know, he may ultimately just end up being the godfather of the modern patriot movement, and that would be good enough for him, I'm sure.
That's the thing because, see, so often it's our tendency to say, well, we didn't win the presidency.
I quit.
I'm not going to apply myself in politics anymore.
It's useless because I tried this one time and we did it.
That's what we did when it was Ross Pro.
We had 19%.
If we kept that going, just think what it would have today.
All we did is all went home.
It was a huge mistake.
Well, and that cannot happen this time because if it does, the greatest chance, the greatest coalition of people we have to enact some sort of positive change in order to reclaim America's destiny would dissipate.
And, you know, Ron Paul said this.
You got to watch his video.
We've got it at thepolitical Successpool.org, ladies and gentlemen, under the article entitled Ron Paul Finishes Strong Second in New Hampshire.
We've got his entire victory speech, if you will, after the New Hampshire tallies came in.
His comment was, it's a victory for liberty.
And you know what?
You can say we took second, but we're nipping at Mitt's heels.
That's right.
And he also said that he has to chuckle when the media describes him and us as being dangerous, us being his supporters.
He said, that's the one thing that they're telling the truth about.
We are dangerous to the status quo of this country.
And of course, that was met with roaring approval.
Where it goes from here, we'll see.
I don't think he goes the third party route.
A part of me, Sam, the bitter part of me, that just has so much disdain for the neocon leadership of the Republican Party, would like for him to go third party just to give them a black eye because it would easily cost them the election.
But I don't think he does it because of Rand.
You mentioned Rand Paul.
I bet you're right.
If he does that, it ruins Rand's career as a Republican.
And Ron Paul is a good man, so he's going to be a big deal.
You're absolutely right.
We've got to take a break, everybody.
Sam Bushman, check him out at LibertyRoundtable.com.
What a great man, Sam Bushman.
We'll be taking a break.
We'll be back right after this.

All right, everybody.
Welcome back to the Political Assess Pool Radio Program.
I want to thank Sam Bushman again for being my guest for the first two segments as we break down the Republican primaries with a heavy emphasis on Ron Paul.
I think it's needless to say that he's our horse here in the Political Assess Pool.
We even went so far as to officially endorse him a couple of weeks ago on the air end on the website.
Doing good.
Doing better than everybody else.
He's doing better than every Republican in the world except for one as far as delegate count and popular vote totals percentage-wise.
Before I move on, I want to remind people to be sure to check out Sam Bushman's incredible radio show, The Liberty Roundtable, LibertyRoundtable.com.
LibertyRoundtable.com.
There, you can listen to Sam Pontificate on any number of issues.
If you like the last two segments, you'll love his entire show.
He's on for three hours every day.
We only do this once a week.
He does it every day, three hours, 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. Central Time at LibertyRoundtable.com and on the affiliate stations of the Liberty News Radio Network.
So be sure to check that out.
And then between Sam and me, we got six days covered, and we're all going to rest on Sunday.
Sam was telling me during the break, though, that as we head into South Carolina, hey, Paul's starting to calm in South Carolina a little bit.
As we head into South Carolina, it looks as though, you know, some of the big money people of the Republican Party, millionaires, billionaires, a few of them beginning to line up behind Gingrich in the Gingrich camp.
And apparently, a lot of the Christian evangelical leadership is pushing their flock towards Rick Santorum.
And that is so disappointing as a Christian and as a Christian broadcast that Centorum has been able to dupe so many.
I mean, I guess he says he's a Christian, whatever.
I mean, who doesn't in politics, right?
I mean, Barack Obama says he is.
They all do.
That doesn't mean anything.
But it's just a shame that the evangelical community is supporting another status quo candidate.
What is the status quo if you're a Christian?
Well, it's going to be increased persecution of your faith.
As we see on the War on Christmas and everything else, the only way to stop that is to limit the reach of the federal government.
And there's only one candidate out there that's saying that.
And that's Ron Paul.
So it's a shame that, and I know that Christian voters in Iowa were the wind in the sails behind Centorum's meteoric rise there.
Of course, he fell off hard in New Hampshire, and he'll continue to fall.
Although as Sam and I were saying, I said, well, you know, I think they're going to keep some of these also rans in the race to siphon votes from Paul, but Sam said, not so quick.
You know, they're going to siphon votes from Romney too.
This could actually help us.
And, you know, as I got to thinking about it, he's right.
You got a neocon Santorum.
You got a neocon Gingrich.
People who are susceptible to voting for a neocon in the first place would probably not be likely Paul voters.
And so perhaps these flash in the pan guys, they're going to get a couple of more jolts here, it looks like, from endorsements and money being poured into their camp.
Maybe they suck a few more votes away from Romney to keep this thing even more close.
We'll wait and see.
As I said, next week, while the show is on, the returns from the South Carolina primary will be coming in.
And then you go to Florida, and then it really starts to open wide.
We'll see.
Bottom line is 1,144 is the magic number of delegates to clinch the GOP nomination.
Right now, Romney has 25.
Paul has 10.
The rest of them are in single digits.
So still a long way to go.
How does Paul apply his power if he should happen to fall short?
The absolute worst thing we can do is have these millions of Paul voters who now represent a great percentage of the Republican Party base dissipate into the four winds if his presidential bid doesn't go all the way to the White House.
We cannot, must not let these people dissipate.
They are organized right now.
They have come together as a group.
We have got to keep them going.
And I don't know how to do it.
I'm not in charge of the Ron Paul campaign.
I don't know what he does.
Does he turn them over to Rand?
And that's, again, why I think Paul stays in the Republican Party as much as I'd like to see him go third party just to hurt the Republicans.
That's petty and vindictive, I know.
I think he stays in it because he doesn't want to hurt his son.
He's a good man.
He's a good father.
He's not going to damage Rand Paul's future in the Republican Party just to satisfy his own aspirations.
And that's noble of him, and that's good.
But I don't think the more I think of it, and we've raised the specter of it a couple of times, the more I think of it, the less likely I believe he'll be to go rogue, as they say, to go third party.
So we'll see.
Anyway, it's just very exciting.
Again, we all fall victim of putting too much emphasis on who wins the presidency.
At the end of the day, it's more valuable to elect five congressmen across the country than it is to elect the president.
But it's just you can't stop talking about it.
I mean, it's the presidential race.
Everybody talks about the presidential race.
We do the same.
What are we going to do?
Okay.
I have debated whether or not to bring up this story.
But I'm going to bring it up just to prove a point of how corrupt, evil, wicked the mainstream media is.
As we say, Ron Paul, James Edwards, Kelly Clarkson, for God's sake, Pat Buchanan, you ever do anything that the establishment doesn't like, and you're going to get denounced as all sorts of vile things.
You're going to get called all sorts of despicable names.
They're going to rake you over the cold.
They're going to paint a negative image of you and your work.
Completely unfair.
It's completely untruthful.
But that's the way it is.
If you hold certain traditional beliefs.
We're not reinventing the wheel here.
We're not coming up with a bunch of wild-eyed, crazy ideas.
Basically, the ideas that are espoused on this radio program are the same ideas that were absolutely commonplace in 1950s America.
Absolutely normal and mainstream.
Traditional American viewpoints.
That's what the political cesspool is all about.
Traditional American, paleoconservative viewpoints, healthy, God-fearing takes on the issues.
You get dismissed as all sorts of nefarious adjectives.
What do they celebrate?
If we're bad, what's good?
I'll give you an example.
It's tacky.
And I know this is a family show, but this is the one story I could bring to your attention that just really accentuates the point.
Woe is the day when men call good evil and evil good.
Well, days, friends, we're living in a time during which the wicked are many and the righteous are few.
If we're bad, if our ideas are bad, what ideas are good?
What is something to be celebrated?
Well, don't take my word for it.
Take Reuters.
Reuters.
Right there with the Associated Press in terms of mainstream quote-unquote credibility.
What are they celebrating this week?
Well, Chas Bono.
Chas Bono is saving up to buy a male sex organ.
Can we just say that?
And this was something that made big news.
And they're just, they're gushing over this.
James Edwards says we got to, you know, it might not be a bad idea to raise the white birth rate so white people can continue to exist.
You know, right now, the percentage of whites across the world, including here in America, is falling.
And I get dismissed as a racist, as a white supremacist, as all these other stupid names that I've never considered myself to be.
That's evil.
What's good?
Chas Bono buying that.
This is from Reuters.
The establishment media would have you to believe that this is normal rather than an advanced form of mental illness.
And the story reads as such.
Chas Bono has always joked that he wanted to keep his privates private.
But his excursion, his excursion, it's a woman pretending to be a man.
She was born Chastity Bono, the daughter of Sonny and Cher.
But she dresses like a man and takes drugs to increase her testosterone, dresses like a man, so now she's a man.
She gets referred to as a he.
But his excursion into reality TV has apparently changed all that.
Rolling Stone says, Rolling Stone Magazine says that he, they put he in five times in each sentence to really brainwash it there.
He is saving his pennies to buy a penis.
And it goes on to talk about it.
It's talking about how great it is, how big it will be.
How perverted is that?
It even talks about how big it's going to be.
Don't go away.
And this is something that is celebrated.
Check out the story at thepoliticalspool.org.
We're just going to take a break there.
I don't even want to follow that one anymore.
Sodom and Gomorrah didn't have anything on Modern Day America.
God help us.
We'll be back.

And here's the host of The Political Cesspool, James Edwards.
All right, everybody, the final segment of tonight's live broadcast is now upon us.
It's been another fun show.
Joining us now for the first time in three weeks is Peter Scoop Stanton, our intrepid TPC correspondent, who generally does join us for the final segment of Each Live broadcast.
Only the last two weeks, Sonny Landham's been hogging all the time in the third hour.
So we finally muscled Sonny out of the way, which wasn't an easy thing to do.
Glad to have you back, Pete.
Glad to be back.
What are you?
So I'm sure with you having a couple of weeks off here, you're loaded.
So what do you got for us tonight, buddy?
Well, good evening, James.
Good evening, Festival Family.
First thing I like to talk about is how bad the media has gotten.
As you all know, as we all know, the media is, you know, look at Karl Marx.
And white's always portrayed as worse than Hitler and minorities are portrayed better than Jesus.
However, the other night, my wife was watching a lifetime movie, which I do not enjoy.
I just happen to be in the bedroom.
And I don't know if this movie was based on a true story, but some lawyer was appearing before the U.S. Supreme Court, and they had all the justices.
And then there was a black man, and I guess it was supposed to be Justice Thomas.
And as the camera was painting the actors playing the justices, one of the justices was a black female.
Now, James, I studied history, and as far as I know, there has never, ever, ever been a black female Supreme Court justice.
So producers and director of this movie is just trying to tell it, let us know that black females are now Supreme Court justices.
Well, you know, what it is, Scoop, is it's wishful thinking.
You know, they cast so many black presidents in advance of Obama.
I guess they it's like the field of dreams.
If you if you script it, it will happen.
And, you know, you had Morgan Freeman.
Well, Morgan Freeman was God.
He wasn't the president.
Never mind.
But you had a plethora of black presidents before Obama, and they were able to bring that to fruition.
And now you've got a black Julius Caesar.
Julius Caesar has been recast as a black man.
A former NFL player, Eddie George, a Tennessee Titan, is playing the role of Caesar in a new on-stage production of the Shakespeare play.
Thankfully, though, they are still, all the people who stab him in the back at the end of the play are still white, so at least they didn't get their jobs taken from him.
Of course.
But I mean, if Julius Caesar in the 21st century, I'm sure the main character Caesar would be somewhere in some inner city in the United States and be fed by non-whites.
But speaking of Morgan Freeman, I saw in media bias and delusion, there's a movie that came out over the summer called Dolphin Tale, where a dolphin is injured through some commercial fisherman and ends up having his tail amputated.
And the dolphin gets a prosthetic, like an arm or a leg, like a normal human being.
And Morgan Freeman's character designs this prosthetic, and the dolphin lives happily ever after.
However, in reality, the prosthetic was designed by two white men.
So again, this Dolphin Tale movie is just absolutely totally fiction.
And it wasn't like a kindly, elderly black man that developed this animal prosthetic.
But of course, there's two white men, but we can't show that on mainstream media.
It never stops.
Right.
And if you and one thing about Morgan Freeman is that people say, oh, he's such a great actor.
He's been in this, that, and the other movie.
But if you look at his choice of movie roles, he's always starring the opposite of an excellent actor.
He started with Quint Eastwood in two movies.
At least one of them, he won Baster Party Actor, I believe he told them.
He won Best Actor in Dragon Miss Davy, playing opposite Jessica Pandy.
When he played God, he was either with Tommy Genius, Jim Carrey, or Steve Corell.
And the list goes on and on.
And then he's in the Batman movies playing opposite Christian Bale.
I got a story coming up since we're on this topic.
And I never know, ladies and gentlemen, in advance what Pete is going to want to talk about.
When Peter Scoop Stanton calls in, I never know what's on the agenda.
So I run by the seat of my pants.
I fly by the seat of my pants with Scoop.
But since we're on this topic tonight, I want to follow up with this, Pete.
Whatever drugs George Lucas is on right now, they must be making him hallucinate.
George Lucas, I think it premieres next week, Red Tales.
It's a story about the Tuskegee Airmen.
And it's an all-black cast, which I guess, you know, they can cast a black man as Julius Caesar, but there are going to be no white actors playing members of the Tuskegee Airmen.
I can guarantee you that.
That would never happen.
Anyway, George Lucas is saying that Hollywood discriminates against blacks.
Yes, George Lucas actually has the nerve to say that Hollywood, Hollywood is racist.
And to which I reply, and this is going to be a big featured article on the website next week.
Hollywood is racist, of course, just not in the way that Lucas pretends.
Anytime there's a bad guy to be played, a pre-movie, infomercial, commercial, movie, bad guys, 99.9% of the time, any heinous crime to be committed on screen is going to be done by a white guy.
It has to be done by a white guy.
And I've got an article here that was written by, it was a senior advisor to John McCain at one point.
So it's a Republican guy, mainstream guy.
And he writes this with the facts.
And I love that.
But anyway, Scoop, I know you got temporarily disconnected for a second.
George Lucas says that Hollywood is racist.
Hollywood discriminates against black people.
This is in the age of the $20 million paycheck for Will Smith.
Tyler Perry makes complete and utter trash.
And, you know, they all get made.
They all make money.
On and on and on.
Morgan Freeman is God or better in any role he takes.
He's always the wise guy and not in a demeaning way.
You know what I'm talking about.
Of course.
I mean, it's very racist.
I mean, poor Denzel Washington, Halley Berry, they can't get any work.
Same thing with Spike Lee.
Nobody will finance his movies.
I mean, it's awful for American Entertainment.
And then, oh, and then, you know, Black Entertainment Television, that can't get any, that's not any cable or satellite provider anywhere.
Yeah, right.
I mean, it's just garbage.
I mean, we all know the truth.
I mean, just turn on the television show Law and Order.
It shows New York City in a totally opposite light.
Every criminal on Law and Order is a white male, and every judge, every supervisor in the police department, every senior district attorney is a woman in minority.
And, you know, being from the city of New York, I'm like, where the hell is this at?
This is not from New York City I know.
I mean, go on the New York City Police Department website.
They'll show you the city's most wanted.
And guess what?
It doesn't look like the lineup from the political cesspool.
It looks like an NBA lineup.
It's a negative image of reality.
What you see in movies and on television is almost always when there's a racial element in play, a negative image of real life.
But, you know, and that's not to say, listen, you mentioned Denzel Washington.
Denzel Washington is an incredible actor.
He is a very, very talented actor.
He's good at what he does.
If anyone's ever seen, oh, how am I forgetting this?
Training Day.
Training Day.
He deserved the off-script for that.
Great job.
But that's not the point.
The point is, you've got clowns like George Lucas.
I mean, again, this is just pandering.
I mean, surely he can't admit this or believe this, but saying that, you know, he had a hard time getting this Tuskegee Airmen movie, Red Tails funded, because Hollywood is so racist.
It's just, it defies belief that something that far from the truth could ever come from someone's mouth.
Well, I think what Mr. Lucas is doing, he's generating heat.
He's pulling this accusation about red tail, so people see it as a piece of crap movie.
Yeah, maybe it's just to generate buzz for it.
I think you're right there, probably.
And then history's going to show that, you know, what the accomplishment of the Tuskegee Airmen did is falsehood in Lucas' movie.
I mean, I was never a pilot when I was on service, and God bless him.
But, you know, it's probably a piece of crap movie.
I haven't seen it.
I have no desires to get.
And then so George Lucas, he's got to generate buzz.
I mean, if he released the Star Wars movies, was there any buzz?
No.
When he did Americans Reflecting, was there any buzz?
No.
When he produced the Indiana Jones movie, was there any buzz?
Of course, but he didn't have to go out and say it.
So I think Mr. Lucas, he needs to go out and say some things so people come out to his movie so that the investors get the return on the money.
You know, look, and I don't mind that they made a movie about the Tuskegee Airmen.
I mean, they did get in the airplanes.
They did go and fight.
I mean, they fought the lower tier of the Luftwaffe, but, you know, they still did it.
They still did it.
And for that, they should be saluted and congratulated.
I mean, I wouldn't want to get up there and go and get in a dog fight with one of those German aces.
But nevertheless, it's not a matter of whether or not the movie is being made.
It's just that, you know, he has the audacity to say that Hollywood is discriminating against black.
And that is just ridiculous.
