CURRENT Liberally Stephanie Miller October 25, 2012

G. Now, lets hear yours at the only online forum with a direct line to Stephanie Miller. The only thing that can save america now current television. Join the debate now. [ music ] stephanie all right, all right, all right. You got it 24 minutes after the hour 1 800 stepj12 the number toll free from where. Anybody who is a low level factor that wants to be a staffer, here he is, kal penn. Good morning. Good morning thanks for having me on kamieniecki thanks for think doing on, you are in massachusetts right now . I am. We are driving up to New Hampshire from massachusetts in pennsylvania yesterday. Doing campaigning. Stephanie i was going to say isnt the president ahead 20, 30 points in the president s home state of massachusetts. We are doing a lecture at boston college. There are a lot of great folks in the bordering states, a lot of californians encouraged tou drive into necessary nevada and folks in massachusetts drive over to New Hampshire to help us. Stephanie this is what its down to, right kal. You can read the stories we all know its about turn out and ground game at this point, right . Thats true. This is a president for whom polls have never been an accurate reflection of much of anything and part that have is when you are talking about blocks of voters who we have expanded the base with, right, a lot of young voters dont get polled they dont call dorm rooms or cell phones or women of color and these are a lot of folks that have been some of our best volunteers, driving the campaign not, you know, not because of the president but because of their own communities and lives and its been really inning spiraling and thats where we are focusing the turn out too. Stephanie i was reading a piece about how the obama team views the final stretch. And i think again their internal polling and what you just said, you know the turn out, a lot of the groupings are feeling under polled, they are feeling emboldened enough to compete in all 90 Battle Grounds, they are feeling good enough about things in all nine of them, roo its . Yeah, we are feeling very good in all of the Battle Ground states. I think the polls will continue to fluctuate, somebody will be three or four points up and down. And we are not really focusing on that. We are focusing on actually getting folks, you know, knowing what their rights are to vote. Knowing where their polling location is. Frankly the get out the vote effort the number one thing that drives people to vote and changes the minds of voters is facetoface voter contact and phone banking. Its not these ads that you see on tv. Its not the talking heads, you know, that come on cable news, it literally is Community Members talking to other Community Members and thats why this is so important. And thats why i think it can be a game changer. Stephanie thats right, we have been talking about that a lot the show. Find out what the requirements are in your state. Help talk to your neighbors friends, help make sure that they are registered, get to the polls, all of that stuffer, right . Yeah. Its true. And its also, you know, i mentioned sort of why we were in massachusetts yesterday its kind of the, you know, there are a lot of our great friends who are in solidly red or blue states we rant constantly on our facebook, but the nice thing about i think the technology that we have on the campaign is that, you know, you go to barack obama. Com you can sign up to make phone calls from your home. If you are in a solidly red state and want to call into a borderline state or Battle Ground state and give us a hand or take a trip. I know for californians and most border state folks we have plans set up you meet pimas passionate as you are everybody an hour of phone banking or a four hour shift of knock on the ground doors is a huge effort. You are right, that is what we are focusing on. Stephanie i have gotten that email since i live in california. You are useless there. Here take a bus somewhere so you can help. [laughter] stephanie kal, i was curious, i dont know if you know off the top of your head, where else is early voting . I know the president is doing very well in early voting. Ohio. Where else do they have early voting, do you know . Ohio. North carolina i believe if i am not mistaken has early voting. Florida. Floridians early voting started saturday the 27th. If you go to i think the website is gottavote. Org or gottavote. Com rather it will tell you if your state has early vote. Stephanie well put a link up on stephaniemiller do the do come. Stephaniemiller. Com. Very exciting the colin powell endorsed the president. I dont know how anybody couldnt have after the debate. I agree. The president was clearly so well versed and made the case for why, you know, as commanderinchief hes done a tremendous job bringing our troops home from iraq and going after bin lad en. Just such a nuanced conversation in contrast with some of what governor ram any was trying to do there. And i think mr. Powell has what i looked about his endorsement it was focusing on National Security which was his bail i wick. He and his wife have an Education Foundation that the president has been really active on education powell talked about that and immigration and the environment and energy as a big reason why and thats are the things that i think nay a days, 13 days before the election, thats the stuff that sometimes gets forgotten. Its what we are thinking about with the environment what will happen to Immigration Reform when congress started dragging its feet and how has the president continued to stand strong and powells endorsement talks about that. Stephanie hitting a hard break, thanks so much. And thanks for your good workout there. Thanks so much. Stephanie there he is he goes kal pen.

Representative Henry Cuellar joins us from the great state of texas, one of our close personal friends. Good morning. Caller good morning. Stephanie im doing good. Were talking about jobs, public sector, private sector, the economy. Stephanie what the. What the. Nice. Stephanie tickets going fast. I will be it will be a sale out. It will be, its exciting. We really launched Stephanie Miller comedy experience way back in march of 2010 when we did a little show at nprs green space. Very near my old apartment and now very near my new apartment. Stephanie like the blob its going to be ease oozing out of the theater. The Rolling Stones on the space. Stephanie somebody say crosby stills the other night and sent the billboard. That was me who sent that. Stephanie oh, thats right. I knew it was someone i knew. You dont Pay Attention. Stephanie you sent me the one at Madison Square garden which was equally cool. I was post on the ground facebook about the marquee. It really looks cool. And you can see the name up there with all of us. Its going to be a great great great show. Lady. Sexy liberal paluzza. I live in the neighborhood so going walk to work for the first time. You guys have to fly and i get to walk. Stephanie and i get to meet the giant chatty baby. You neat the baby. Stephanie yeah. A giant baby. Its massive. Stephanie is he chatty . Yes every time im on the phone he does. Hes a radio talk show host, getting hill ready for the tour. He wont shut up. I will put him on pierce morgan, hes great. [laughter] stephanie you are finally going to meet my son, i am thrilled. Cool, because my mom is moving to asheville where your mom is nearby. Stephanie i am telling you one degree of sexy liberal separation. Stocking you and your mom. Stephanie thank you. My mom wants it. Jim in columbus, you are on the Stephanie Miller show. Hi, jim. Hi, how are you doing today . Stephanie good. Good. Go ahead. Okay. A couple of things, the first is that stamps on absentee ballots in ohio in franklin county, they put a little blush on the blurb on the ballot itself you have to pay 65 cents even though it looks like a regular forever stamp size. And the problem is the democrats have asked john houston to put on the envelope that you needed to pay 65 cents. Well, my wife knows both a lawyer and somebody with an mba who sent it in with regular postage. The post office has agreed to deliver them all but currently you pretty much have to call in youryourself and say hey did my vote get counted. Yourself you have to do it it. This is what romneys devils in it the details. Stephanie yeah. Well listen, here are some context for yall it is important. We were just talking to kal penn on the pam caneon campaign trail. They lost the ballot box of course the republicans in many of these states. They are not can quitters, its not going to stop them. Stephanie kind of sore losers, voters in critical swing states are being inundated with messages meant to discourage them from voting we have had listeners call. Pay attention residence in florida, virginia are receiving mysterious calls telling them to vote by phone instead of going to the polls. That would be incorrect. Florida mass mailing of fake letters questioning their citizenship s letter written on fake letterhead. Telling recipients to fill out voter eligibility form with their Social Security information, florida drivers license and addresses. The letters claim the recipient must send the form to the supervisor of election within 15 days or be purged. They are mimicking the actual purge letters that scott tried to send out and was roundly vlad down. Billboards warning that voter fraud is a felony popped up in predominantly africanamerican and latino neighborhoods. Prison sentence for voter fraud. Likely targeting former felons that have a right to vote. Clear channel, we are sitting in a Clear Channel studio. They announced that they would take down the billboards after the sponsor refuse today come forward. The company is donating 10 billboards declare voting is a right, not a crime. Thats good. Nice. Stephanie the judge ruled, pennsylvania we had a call yesterday, chris the judge ruled pennsylvania voters without photo i. D. Could still cast a regular ballot. State sponsored ads have continued to tell residents they must show i. D. They are ads are on radio and it. V. And mailed to seniors via a precipitation trouble program. Billboard targeting spanish speakers continues to misleadingly promote the i. D. Requirement. And we have talked about this a lot. Several excuse me, present ceos are pressuring their employees to vote for romney saying they may lose their job in obama is elected. Thats courtesy of Citizens United. Is that legal . Yes, thanks to Citizens United that is legal. Workers have reported being pressured to vote, donate and attend romney rallies by their bosses. Oh, god. Stephanie Pay Attention to that. People. I hope there is a big backlash, you boss man vote for obama. I would ask any republican out there name one time in your career where you have supported lake or against management and see who save it. If mitt romney has ever done it is. Stephanie right. Thats what we are looking at its they talk a good game, wall street owns them. Social conservatives need to know without street doesnt kara abortion or gay marriage. Wall sprite likes it. They tell conservatives what they want to hear their only agenda is cutting tax for his wealthy people and deregulation the end. Stephanie you are on with john hi. Hi. Stephanie. Stephanie hi. How are you this morning . Stephanie good, go ahead. I wanted to say that [inaudible] is a fool. Hes a fool and a racist. And it proves that any fool with money can say anything they want to say. Just because donald trump hugs mimi from the real housewives, Oprah Winfrey and Wendy Williams does not make him a race i felt. My great great grandfather hugged my great greatgrandmother at night and he had slaves. What does that make him . Stephanie yeah. Yeah. Stephanie okay and. My great grandfather was a k. K. K. Who hugged my greatgrandmother at night. And he was definitely a racist. So it doesnt mean a thing. But you should listen to the colbert report last night and the jon stewart report. Stephanie all right. It was so funny. Stephanie thank you. Jenny in georgia was going to talk about that. What did colbert do, i didnt see it . Oh, my gosh. I have never seen him, you could tell that he was very outraged by donald trump. And he just went for broke and it was amazing. You gotta pull it up. Stephanie i believe we have it all right. A clip on it. Stephanie here it is. Mr. Trump, i will write you a check for 1 million from colberts super pack, you know ive got it, to the charity of your choice, anything, save the children feed the children, put the children on child apprentice whatever, 1 million actual dollars if you will let me dip my balls in your mouth.
