there is not enough christmas music. i am an american i don't like crony capitalism. and with the limited window for christmas carols you can only play so many. that's why mariah carey is truly the victim it's a wonderful song christmas music should be played year-round. [applause] that was amazing i'm very inspire but wait to hear the counterargument you are arguing for thanksgiving after. >> my fellow americans. i love christmas music but i

wait until after thanksgiving because i'm not a social path. on —- social path there is such a thing to have too much it destroys the appetite for christmas. i'm not arguing it is not good but too abundant. with the whole world just be a cvs where we put out the easter candy in february and fourth of july candy in march? >> yes. >> in this economy we need the whole world to be cvs the day after with gas prices. do you think had the better argument?
