president's call to tone down political rhetoric at rallies, where there is always a fine line to spurto go door to door and pass out political pamphlets and revving them up where they believe the only option is the rip off the heads and (bleep) down the necks of those who disagree with them on trade policy issues. the truth is, most rally techniques are lame. without hyperbolic metaphorical incitements to violence you're left with a few options. >> tonight we say help is on the way and help is on the way! and help is on the way! (laughter). >> jon: i will lift the benefits of a 2% increase in the top marginal tax rate and then you will respond with some variation of my "help is on the way" phrase establishing a rhythmic dynamism which will propel us to... where's every... hello? (laughter) or you could pump up the crowd at a rally by getting a high-profile celebrity to remind people that most candidates have two names. >> i say howard you say dean! howard... >> dean! >> howard... >> dean!

president obama should be signing a new executive order every day that spurs jobs.ght say it would only be symbolic or would barely move the needle on jobs, but i disagree. we have an unemployment crisis in this country. you think those riots in the streets of london can only happen over there? well, guess again. we need action now, and if congress won't act, the president can and must. with we could have some really smart people come up with thousands of executive actions the president could take to spur jobs, but just to prove to you that this stuff is not rocket science, i'm going to give you two of my very own david goodfriend originals right here on the dylan ratigan show. so number one, bring home the other troops. we have north of 50,000 troops in germany and japan. what, are we afraid world war ii might break out again? they're over there spending your tax dollars on schnitzel and sushi instead of spending it here at home. how about president obama orders them back stateside to help, i don't know, homeland security, and of course, house them in apartments an
