[laughter] i just don't see them using a dildo wheel. the point is this: they felt i was singling out herman cain using offensive voi

now sarah palin gets a fancy buzz herman cain as a zone trade i kind of like that better of you guys i find this whole thing really endearing and it can i can i have a couple think about the little engine that could because herman cain you know he's the underdog doesn't have a whole lot of money in the production value of this ng is a little bit iffy it's no it's him it's no it's you know michael bay produced you know it's simple and yet for sure but the it's just so and dear you know. he's out there talking to the people there saying he's going to raise cain they've got the little footage of the guy but what a curious thing in there my colleague who is no ally of herman cain makes like a twenty second cameo in there i'm not really sure what the purpose of that is i don't even see if i missed of yeah he's just you know talking just just talking about a normal constituent that herman cain hopes to get the vote in the g.o.p. . you just one thing which i picked up on and i feel like there's all these simple and old messages or not so simple no like through the whole thing you have to ke

test well he has that other religions are exempt from then after the republicans debate last night cain was asked whether his stance toward muslims is bigoted since he does not apply the same standard to other religions and this was his response. though it does a lot of people saying it. is a constitutional. right. to take. care. no harm and driving the speed limit is careful and cautious excluding an entire world religion from your cabinet that's bigoted i wonder how this guy handle pizza orders at his last job if you want parker that or are you a member of al qaeda and that's very very. don't get in a car wreck in jefferson county alabama. or if you do don't expect the county sheriff to send his deputies out to see if you're ok that's because beginning this saturday jefferson county will no longer dispatch sheriff's deputies to traffic accidents because the county can't afford it what else can the county no longer afford about a third of all the public employees one thousand jefferson county public workers will soon be told to go on without pay nobody knows how long because the county

there is an article on herman cain calling him the cain-do candidate. back to the phones.ort bragg, north carolina on a line for democrats. caller: i am sorry to say, but republicans have no choice. herman cain really has no choice. romney is the choice. i wish that donald trump would have stayed in. with the economy staying in, who wants to hear someone talk about how much money they make when they want to be president? he had ample time and he will be back. host: we want to remind our listeners and viewers that when you start talking, make sure that you turn down the volume on your television or radio. george zornick, are you starting to get a feel from the obama administration and campaign as to who they would like to run against? guest: they have not telegraphed it very clearly. i assumed they would like to run against michele bachmann or someone unpalatable to many voters. what they are most scared of, you hear people saying he is boring, he is bland. but if you look at the polls, the candidate that does the best is generic republican. obama has been hot in office and

on the threat of muslims writ america next week in addition republican presidential hopeful herman cain the guy who most republicans think won the first debate a few weeks ago claimed on the glenn beck show that he would force muslims to take a loyalty oath before even considering hiring them for his cabinet take a look i didn't say i would appoint one because if they can prove to me but be a put in the constitution of the united states first. they would be a candidate just like everybody else my entire career good people great people regardless of their religious order so weighted are you saying that it is that muslims have to prove there there's to be some loyalty proof yes to the constitution of the united states of america but would you do that to a catholic or would you do the notion of mormon no i wouldn't i wouldn't because there is a greater dangerous part of the muslim faith then there. is he added these religions so do republicans really think that muslims are dangerous second class citizens or are they just creating bogeyman in time for the two are going to you this is a man

of course herman cain only supports gays insofar as they're a defense against shari'a law i think he should stick to making pizzas and a very very ugly tim called lunch after announcing his presidential run poll once he unveiled his deficit reduction plan called the better deal in it politely argues that the government shouldn't perform any services that you can find i'm google he said if you can find a good or service on the internet then the federal government probably doesn't need to be doing it the post office the government printing office amtrak fannie mae freddie mac. all built in a time in our country and the private sector did not adequately provide those products as no longer the case well other things you can find on google private security military contractors private education construction work health care for seniors food safety kids' retirement plans so does that mean the government shouldn't be providing any of that stuff either i mean yes second part is simple and he's better deal is to require students to pledge allegiance to the flag of google every morning in thei
