Had to pull you in somehow. This guy's book should be required reading in schools and universities, instead of Saul Alinsky. But this speech is pretty much the short version. More education from this American hero:
I realize this is enemy territory, and the vast majority here are hopeless just like the band (great band musically though), but you have to try to wake people up wherever you can, because our country, and ours and our children's futures are at a crossroads right now in these sick and dire times.
Edit - another good source of knowledge for some, and bleeding eyeballs for others: http://www.wpgb.com/cc-common/ondemand/ 6am to 9am EST live BTW. You're REALLY gonna hate this guy, mwah ha haa... Facts are the left's worst enemy.

CALLER: I just wanna say, Obama is a lot smarter than you folks give him credit for. You guys were on a roll, I have to admit, with all those tea parties. Everything was rolling along, the Republicans were gaining momentum. And he managed to change your entire conversational focus. And you let those three hundred thousand people —
LEVIN: My God. He’s so smart. His own party voted against him on Guantanamo Bay. How stupid was that, Cindy? His own party refused to fund the closing of Guantanamo Bay.
CALLER. Yeah but you know he can just move those people over here anyway. He’s already doing it with the one guy.
LEVIN: Yeah, sure, he can do whatever he wants. Let me ask you a question. Why do you hate this country?
CALLER: No, I love this country.
LEVIN: (angrily shouting) I SAID WHY DO YOU HATE MY COUNTRY?WHY DO YOU HATE MY CONSTITUTION? WHY DO YOU HATE MY DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE? You just said it. He can blow off Congress. He can do whatever he wants, right?
CALLER: Well, he seems to, he just moved (inaudible).
LEVIN: Answer me this, are you a married woman? Yes or no?
CALLER: Yes.
LEVIN: Well I don’t know why your husband doesn’t put a gun to his temple. Get the hell out of here.

Whew.
Glad you're relieved my friend...glad you're relieved... I noted that detail specifically to ease your concerns, and I'm very glad it accomplished it's purpose.
I think anyone who can listen to that speech and disagree or take issue with it, must hate freedom, and fancy living under a top-down authoritarian regime. So i would suggest moving to Cuba or Venezuela and bask in your utopia, but don't forget to let us know how you like it after a year, and send a post card.
I knew this would be moonbat central, so I'm not in any way surprised or phased by any reaction this might get. This is probably the last time I'll check here anyway, I just checked in to make a quick edit and saw the clever little replies with no substance. And of course the dialogue taken from a call, which is probably the most extreme sounding thing the criminal front group Media Matters could find, which I'm sure is where you probably cherry picked it from. I do remember that call, at least the comment about the husband (poor guy) and that woman was definitely obnoxious and insufferable if you actually heard the call. Media Matters probably cherry picked it to death, the same way the media flat out lies about things Rush says, etc. But any of this pales in comparison the some of the bilge that comes from the likes of Overbite, Gerafelo (sp? who cares), Jon Lebowitz (aka Stewart), and countless others, including our magnificent elected officials in the socialist party (what a pure outrageous sleaze that Grayson is, and Dirty Harry Reid). And of course who could forget the lovely Wanda "I hope his kidneys fail" Sikes (sp? again, who cares).
Anyway, all I can say is it's a good thing there are more of us than you, and we're energized. Beware '10 and '12.
Oh, look. There he is "humbly" accepting that worthless piece of trash in Oslo. Rich.

CALLER: Well, he seems to, he just moved (inaudible).

Unfortunately he left out manbearpig, unless that's one of the unknown creatures he's referring to.

Ben Nelson. It all comes down to one schlub from Nebraska, who holds our very fates in his hands. It's pretty sick the way they're trying to blackmail him by threatening to close important military bases in his state though. Very mafioso, thuggish regime we're dealing with here.
