The LuLac Edition #3301, September 19th, 2016
So tonight my buddy L.A. Tarone takes a phone call from a caller in Wilkes Barre that badly needs a Bush/Obama phone. The guy was yammering on about the choice between Trump and Clinton and said that he couldn’t understand how anyone could vote for the devil you know. Tarone then responded that Hillary Clinton’s career was “Thirty years of abject failure”. Okay, thirty years of abject failure?
Let’s not even count her time on the Watergate committee and her work with the Children’s Defense Fund as a young lawyer. Thirty years, 1986 to 2016.
Helped provide millions of children with health care. That was the CHIP program which right wingers were screaming about because it was socialized medicine. But because of it, millions of kids got health care.
Elected Senator of New York state in 2000.
During 911, Clinton worked to make sure the 9/11 first responders who suffered lasting health effects from their time at Ground Zero got the care they needed. She also met with many family members at the time.
Told the world that “women’s rights are human rights." This was a ground breaking speech on an international basis. She did this in Communist China not on Social Media in her bathrobe.
Stood up for LGBT rights at home and abroad. Now the homophobes won’t get this but Clinton has advocated for this type of inclusion.
Remember a few years ago when Israel was at peril? As Hamas rockets rained down on Israel, Hillary went to the region immediately. Twenty-four hours after she landed, a ceasefire went into effect—and that year became Israel’s quietest in a decade.
Re-elected senator in 2006.
Came within 300 votes of becoming the nominee but took the advice of that numbskull Mark Penn who said forget about the caucuses.
Was instrumental in persuading Barack Obama to pull the trigger and get Bin Laden.
Nominated as the first woman to be the nominee of a major political party.
Thirty years of “abject failure?’
While the caller was hard to hear, unfortunately the host of the night time talk show was loud and clear on this one. All I know is I’m in Wilkes Barre and he’s in Hazleton and we should both be so lucky to be such “abject failures”.
It’s the time of the year again for the LuLac Women We Love nominees.

The only person less informed than a Tarone caller is Louie himself. Like Corbett, he believes that if he yells his misinformation louder; it suddenly becomes true.

IN RESPONSE
I disagree. They both do their research. When they don't, I'll respond to it like I did here today.
I am pretty sure you won't put this up, and that is okay. You are good at protecting your friends from thoughtful criticism. Honestly, Not sure how anyone can listen to Tarone's show. His callers are the worst. His homophobic rantings are sickening and his abject racism horrifying.. I think he would have fit right in to the (edit) machine of the 30's. Both he and Corbett's factual information starts out sound but then goes off the deep end. They are the kings of beating the drums of negativity. I can hear them chanting the mantra that "HATE SELLS - FEAR MOTIVATES" before each show. Two very disgusting personas that mirror the small mindedness of the audience they reach. I hope are simply on air manifestations of radio shtick, but I fear that their hearts are as dark as their show

Their hearts are miles away from being dark.
Just a bt of an edit there. Three quarters of a loaf better than......?
I guess, but the edit destroys the meaning of the content. Not sure why the edit, I was grouping his thoughts with those, it was to compare the propaganda of both/ And as far as dark. I don't know about Tarone,

When you get 99% of a yard, don't bitch about an inch.
If the inch is the most important part that was stolen then you bitch.
I would have preferred non publish than your edit. You edit destroyed the most powerful part of the point.
But then again, your reputation for protecting WILK from the truth remains unscathed.

I'm not sure many of the folks at WILK are happy with me this election cycle. Haven't heard from Tarone in ages!
I think your point was taken.
As always, thanks for reading and your support
