11:03 pm
has reportedly hit be highest level sixty. years the headlines up next the cost to the u.s. . if . welcome to the alone a show will get the real headlines with none of the mercy now this week we've been bringing you the best of the a lot of show from the last year for america's war abroad to the best debates of the year but here on the show we also had the opportunity to have fun with
11:04 pm
a lot of stories and frankly we have had so much fun we wanted to share some of those with you once again back in august a pew research poll came out revealing that twenty percent of americans think that obama is a muslim now the fact that they even did a report speculating on obama's religion was beyond me but the really sad part are the number of people that actually believed that this president is a muslim now most of the participants were questioned they said that they came to this conclusion after watching reports from the mainstream media again utter and barest meant so we called on one of our favorite guests blogger sarah bennett caso to get her take on the report and despite having a few technical problems with her earpiece during the interview she still brought plenty of insight now seeing what the attitudes are towards muslims in america these days a new poll that came out today was particularly disturbing according to the pew research center one in five americans think that their president barack obama is
11:05 pm
a muslim even though he's not and what's worse is that these numbers have risen in the past year meaning that more people are either beginning to believe lies or simply grossly misinformed so what do we make of this information maybe it's a lesson learned that sometimes it's better not to poll so we don't wind up paying your heads in shame well joining me to discuss it from our new york studio is sarah bening casa a radio host and blogger for wonkette sarah thanks so much for being here i want to get your initial reaction to this poll because i was just dumbfounded flabbergasted speechless disturbed i don't know if i have any more words. here's what confuses me about it alone the number has actually has actually increased over the past year or so are there people who previously thought that obama was a christian and they think that he converted at some point in two thousand and nine
11:06 pm
or two thousand and ten it's ridiculous i mean i i think it's i look at it as being all a smokescreen for for racism really i think it's easier to to say that you hate someone who is muslim verses hating someone who is african-american and i think that that sort of it's a smokescreen it's a way to cover that up and perhaps have a more socially acceptable. prejudice well you know i'm happy brought that up because my initial question to you is why do we even care what the president's religion is i mean do you remember people questioning george bush as to what religion is or what denomination of christian he is or bill clinton and i was you know realize no no one ever did that to me because they were white nobody ever thought to do that because you could never even you know for ten that they were muslim i with you and the fact that this is it's shielding some sense of racism but the fact that people actually have the numbers of increase is the scary part because you would think that after time after eighteen months of being in the
11:07 pm
public eye being the president of a country that people would be better informed but they're not and i salute i mean you would think that they would get the point that this is a man who who was was i mean raked over the coals during the campaign because of reverend jeremiah wright not like omar jeremiah wright or grand mufti jeremiah wright they even are these are the same people who were upset that he was associated with a pastor who they felt had some anti-american ideas so is he actually an evil christian or an evil muslim what can we decide here people because i'm getting kind of tired of the rumors either. array's evil right well this is the part that i found really sad especially to use that also when polled these people were asked how they found out what obama's religion was and according to the poll sixty percent of responders says of the way they found out was through the media so it's
11:08 pm
the media that's telling people things it's just like people reading wonkette and thinking that i'm a russian spy. they really do and they also are obsessed with you p.s. read the comments it's intense they're in love but yeah it's ridiculous i like what media crazy a.o.l. forwards from your racist grandma like what media i mean i don't know i've never seen even on fox news or i've never seen them do a report like is obama really muslim no i mean i think his father was but his father was apparently a very small portion of of his life and i mean it's just i think i'm actually being sabotaged by by the right wing right now i think they've invaded by earpiece somehow but i don't understand it's so absurd to me it makes me really angry because there are so many other things to be upset at obama about why why pick this why make up something ridiculous and if he was muslim who cares i went
11:09 pm
there on that one i say who cares but if you look at the polling from americans i mean it's really scary because clearly this entire you know there is definite environment of hates of prejudice of racism right now and time did a poll and they asked the following they asked you know how many americans believe the muslims should be barred from sitting on the supreme court twenty eight percent they asked how many americans believe muslims should be barred from serving as president thirty two percent those are tiny numbers of people think that because of your religion you should be barred. that's embarrassing like that makes me feel actually embarrassed to be an american i mean i'm proud to be an american and i love my country but when i hear that over a quarter of the people polled say that they don't want someone of the islamic faith to be on the supreme court that's absurd i mean don't they understand that there are different branches of islam in the same way that there are different
11:10 pm
branches of judaism or christianity i'm guessing they don't want to understand it and i think it was something that looked ok lastly you know how if you were in obama's shoes right now i mean how does that make you feel why what did you become president for how do you govern a country where everyone just blatantly refuses to look at the facts. i think you're frustrated i think i think you're frustrated i think that maybe you voice that frustration not personally but you have robert gibbs voice it for you. that you you probably spend a lot of time clutching those anger balls that we get at work the ones that you can keep on your desk those small she thinks i think it might seem a little bit hopeless to him at times but he he has to soldier on because that's his job and he will continue to do it but fifty years from now there will still be people who swear up and down that obama was
11:11 pm
a muslim muslim kenyan citizen of course sarah thanks so much for joining us and i'll make sure to call fox time we go to you're here on the show one of the things that we love to cover most are campaign ads and in fact we love them so much that we decided to create some of our own to check out this story from back in june where we featured the first of several folks campaign ads featuring myself and producer jenny churchill you know we're always talking about the funniest craziest and most watched campaign ads here on our show so much so that we've actually come up with a few ads of our first of all do you ever the ad that we showed you of dale peterson running for alabama's agriculture commissioner but after the public and nominations for alabama commission a bit of former businessman because of the leader and very serious about alabama the commissioner is one of the most powerful positions in alabama well jenny churchill pulled a little bit of inspiration from dale with her new ad campaign. and i'm running for
11:12 pm
president i'm going to don the studio the worker politician and a very special some. so listen being president is one of the most important job in the world is not the universe but i bet you didn't know that why does and criminal because if they can keep you in the dark they can do what. ever they want with all that money and they don't give a rip about your money. here we are people losing jobs every day how every minute people are struggling in my opinion is grabbing on her facebook page that. i can't buy a new issue i've worked for to say no to new shoes with a hostile hope he'll vote jenny churchill. i work for a living too but anyway you've now seen jenny's campaign points but i'm not asking
11:13 pm
you to put your horse in the barn take up or cowboy hat and watch why. you won't believe jen churchill i mean everybody thinks that she's so awesome well done telling you you cannot believe the stuff that this woman does i don't know i saw it with my own eyes take a look. there she is there she is. jenny churchill said she wants to keep a little. country you know she tell us she hires the owners and. then she pays them this week.
11:14 pm
i told you she wants to turn this into a nation of beggars she wants a turn back the hands of time paramedics ten cents an hour and enslave them to clean all of her mansions we can't stand for that all we can't stand for this what we can do. gather our army is. there remind you of another campaign ad we showed you one that features actual founding fathers you gentleman revolted over a tea tax a tea tax now look at us. are you with thank. you. now i think that you may have noticed that during the breaks in today's program there were two as they
11:15 pm
didn't really belong let me show them to you that. there are these are trying times americans are going hungry our jobs. are our a minimum cost we need to be able to compete globally that's why when i'm president everyone will speak english and russian. we need a workforce that's diverse so i welcome immigrants and change as long as they change from to cheap to buy the product will start manufacturing with american drone idaho potatoes but that's just business sense. does this look like the best to. a lot of the studies to the dust. she steals from. the idea of the man with
11:16 pm
the states. to be honest with you i don't really think she was even born here i've got two words for you. birth certificate my name's johnny church oh and i approved this message. paid for by the friends of jimmy churchill. all right now those are of course just jokes not really running for president i don't really feel from the homeless but the beauty here is that our over the top ridiculous ads are too far off from reality i want to take a look back at some of the realized that we've shown you on the show. in which he looks to me as edge of shady ties to the mob this is alabama we speak english if you want to live here. we're only given the test in english.
11:17 pm
maybe it's the businessman in me it will save money and it makes me. as a t.v. . needless to say this is just first of several folks campaign ads to come from the lone a show vault the believe me all the times that making them or well worth the laughs i don't go anywhere we have plenty of laughs ahead after the break we're going to show you one of our favorite segments with comedian and smith and over the summer we posed a little fun of the tea party but apparently it did not go over so well with our viewers so we're going to show you the controversial video again and how he responded to our disgruntled. wealthy british style. writer with.

11:19 pm
welcome back and like i said earlier we are dedicating this show to some of our funniest segments from the past year and if we're talking funny but we definitely need to include our resident comedian and smith every week we deliver to him a mash up of some of the weirdest and downright most ridiculous stories that are making headlines and every week he delivers the laughs take a look. while it's friday is a time to look at some of the most ridiculous most just gusting al right most offensive stories of the week and i'm warning you we have one video the you may want to cover your eyes for but again that we're going to miss laughing at the expense of a drunk woman anyway let's get to it joining me to discuss it is comedian seton smith think you so much for being here thank you very much for again let's let's just play the video for the audience so they first know i mean people in my office have been playing this video all day long like you can't stop laughing about it so enjoy audience.
11:20 pm
would just. say we believe. you know the sad thing is that i'm pretty sure that people are action you know. i think it is the you know what i go to goes i know you was a speedos are just amazing listen what makes me so mad is like because. i know that i need money to get a hot girl i know i mean little frame i probably need a little money i normally definitely think ok right but here's what kills me all right i'm also going to stay in the pool through the whole time i actually there was a for every hot girl miserable there's like a couple of drug use on the side going you. know i don't want to touch this all the time is depressing i can do this you know with them to give you a little bit better about yourself it is watching the drug. no because like
11:21 pm
a girl like you would go for the demographic when i get rich right that's your father going to be going with with smart nice girls for the rest of my life you know when i got the goal of if i do think about that as yesterday we did a story on the show a new study discovered that there is in fact a gene that certain people have that makes them more inclined to participate in more risky behavior including one night stands aka just being slutty so i'm going to go ahead and guess about a woman probably has the gene know she has a gene and i'm angry that like i want them to figure out a way to test for this gene there has to be a blood test a scanner because i would love before i start buying drinks of people that you know if you have the gene well you know the gene priests are right i need to go because i'm not going to spend the night with a girl who doesn't have the gene to actually think sensibly and actually thinks about her actions come on because i'm a grade you want to know if your mom had the gene. it doesn't matter i'm still born i don't know i don't know where i was i'm ok with care of me talking about your mom ok i don't know i mean listen mom i'm sorry moma listen i don't think she's my
11:22 pm
mom's a minister so let's let's just be. very clear no she's been in the room it's ok let's move on that earlier this is what i think we also do talk about a news story where two women were found it trying to steal because it's real by hiding them in their rolls of fat. i don't know if they don't make this home so they actually did steal booths and jeans and hid them in the rolls of fat not this is like. mecca or something. but we were supposed to make a quick as opposed to. this who has talent you don't even get. me off and i'm glad you made a diagram because when i saw this news on t.v. there was no diagrams when you tell me the story of somebody stuffing things into their fat i want to see a reenactment i want to see some diagrams i want to see if they are women who sort of i'm saying got caught they actually had somebody climb into a fake cole and show us what is the fake hold for this was what it was like.
11:23 pm
exactly this is me being a boot right now under her left breast right now like what this this is this is not enough anymore do you do though if you had to steal some celery you have no fat but . would you go for it if i was really that desperate for some from some say. nothing that would fit them could actually fit under them so they're really going for the kids and that's just a happy story that ends well right there. well you know i mean to some people who go very far right if they if they need something will go far to steal something and a lot of people will go really far to lose that weight this is a new trend apparently people are getting injected with p. from pregnant women to lose weight look at this clip. is the urine of pregnant women and cheryl is injecting herself with it i my god you could lose a pound just taken a shot i got it i got to find out about this weight loss counselors who offer the program say it's not the urine but the hormone in it that takes off the pounds.
11:24 pm
that's going to grow it's no we do that to to lose a pound you. know proud ok we have any we get it i don't look great i know you've got to get over the needle issue already but now you've got to get over the p. issue too like there's a piece here who's cultural that wants peace and what woman is like that comfortable she thinks she can still get a man when he has p. inside of her p. and it isn't really this way it is someone you didn't know when all right there is the most proven. drug there's no doctor saying when does it help you lose weight ok we don't have a good drugs out there. this story is just a mess there's a guy that lives in idaho and this is the picture of his snowman that is that is the k.k.k. snowman if you haven't noticed this is idaho for you listen this is me sometimes racism say it makes you say depressed but sometimes racism is clever and that's what this is this man is in idaho right now ok well you know there can be a civil rights march in idaho no this man did in the safest environment american.
11:25 pm
like me building like a black panther statue in harlem it wasn't well harlem clinton's there so i guess i guess you can't care rested for the hour whatever it's still wrong theme thank you so much for being here all right thank you very much like i said we can always count on scene to bring plenty of laughs but hey we can make our viewers laugh too back in august we first told you about a video game with the objective to score as little as possible now even though we all know that teaching abstinence is completely pointless in this day and age we had to have some fun with this story so the point of the video game is to put young girls in questionable situations to test how they would respond if this happened in the real world and it's all designed to teach young girls about saying no to guys and their sexual advances but unfortunately there weren't any demonstrations of the video game so we decided to make one ourselves and we have a producer jenny churchill in the gamers' chair frankly this is one of my favorite videos that we've made on the show this year and hopefully you guys left it too.
11:26 pm
11:27 pm
you know you want. to know realize we're all gone. i am calling my dad. way to go johnny now we know that miss middle america makes good decisions but let's move on we have made no secret here on this program but we're skeptical of what the tea party movement has become so we were excited when we found out that somebody else out there shared our views and got us thinking how could we show the tea party just how much we don't like them and then it came to me how about a video showing how i would handle all those tea baggers jokingly of course. the tea party we talked about them posted interviews about them and with them and we feel them just did
11:28 pm
a little bit on this show you know this show has no. long live calling them out for their contradictory views it looks like someone else out there who agrees with us the agenda project has started a campaign called f t a way to say that normal americans won't put up with that radical group anymore well i thought their campaign was a great way to put those tea baggers in their place but i gotta admit it was me i'd probably take a much more aggressive approach. with the baggers. do you.
11:29 pm
really. so clearly after we aired that video we thought that while we could make fun of the tea partiers but apparently many of them are completely a lacking when it comes to a sense of humor and distinguishing a joke from reality and in fact we got so much hate mail from that clip that i had to address it on the following show. apparently many of our youtube viewers suffer from a serious lack of sense of humor you know from being able to conquer.
