Henry: Yes, this is The Henry “Mack Truck” Harvey Show. Welcome aboard.
First caller is Jim from Altadena. Jim, go ahead.
Jim: Yeah. I want to know what you think of the current health care legislation being debated.
Henry: I think it’s Socialism, Jim. That’s what I think. I think it’s Socialism.
Jim: Define Socialism for me. If you would.
Henry: Socialism is a type of government where the government pays for things in a socialistic way.
Jim: That’s a horrendous definition.
Henry: Well, maybe you’re a horrendous definition.
Jim: How could I be a horrendous definition?
Henry: Of an American. You’re a horrendous definition of an American.
Jim: Why? Because I want everyone to have health care?
Henry: No. Because you want me to pay for it. I shouldn’t have to pay for it. Let him pay for it. Let Obama pay for it.
Jim: You want Obama to fund health care by himself?
Henry: Why not? He’s rich. He wrote all these books and stuff. Write another book. “The Audacity of Spending a Ridiculous Amount of Money.”
Jim: It’s going to cost a lot more than the money made from one book.
Henry: Then make other stuff. Make t-shirts. People love Obama t-shirts. They go crazy for them. Make Obama clocks, Obama mouse pads. Obama toilet seat covers. Yeah, how about Obama on your toilet, so that when I’m flushing my money down the toilet, I can know it’s Obama who did it.
Jim: Why would you flush your money down the toilet?
Henry: I wouldn’t be. Obama would. That’s why it’s his face is on the toilet.
Jim: How did Obama get in your house and flush your money down the toilet?
Henry: He’s not in my house, Jim. It’s figurative. He’s flushing my money down the toilet with his policies.
Jim: Well, I think only you can flush your money down the toilet, and I think it’s very foolish.
Henry: Well, I think you’re a toilet, Jim. How about that? I think you’re a toilet. You’re a toilet of a person. You’re, like, the person version of a toilet.
Jim: That’s very mature. I’m very glad I called.
Henry: So am I.

Atta boy Henry, that’s the way to do it! Just throw a little Rethug razzle dazzle mixed in with a bit of poo poo ca ca at these Socialistic-Communistic bleeding heart lib’rals and before you know it you got ‘em on the run.
And lest these elitist blowhards forget, and oh, they always do forget, that you da man wit’ da microphone and the cut off button. When they try to use logic, turn it emotional, change the subject, personally attack the caller’s character, integrity, and points, and if that ain’t enough just lie baby lie. If that don’t work just scream “drill baby drill”. Works the same every time.
