How long before the gop gets a sense of humor . Stephanie i dont know well read some Comment Section because wow there are some zingers in there. I said the turtle stephanie you were imitating john boner. What importance is context really . Stephanie we think both Mitch Mcconnell and john boner want to turn pour people into mulch. They probably do. There goes jacki hitting the pages of news busters. Stephanie here she is the incredibly biased, Jacki Schechner. Good morning, everybody. The governor has signed the law that makes gay marriage legal. Close to 54 of voters in november backed the ballot measure that reaffirmed a state law that passed earlier this year, the first offices opened at 12 01 am and in two counties they are starting to issue licenses. By 10 00 pm dozens of couples were already lined up. The state has a threeday waiting period. Samesex couples who were married in another state do not have to say their vows again. Couples in maryland also can start getting their licenses today, but the date on the licenses will be january 1st. The law in maine will kick in december 29th. Also today in Washington State anyone 21 and over can carry up to an ounce of marijuana. But cannot smoke it. It is unclear how federal authorities will deal with the decriminalization of weed. Tonight is the lighting of the National Christmas tree, the president and the first family will be doing the honors. Were back after the break. Stay with us. Every day presents another exciting issue. From financial regulation, iran getting a nuclear bomb, civil war in syria, fraud on wall street, destruction of medicare and medicaid. There are real issues here. Having been a governor, i know that tradeoffs are tough. Things everyday exploding around the world that leave no shortage for exciting conversations. I want our viewer to understand why things have happened. At the end of the show, you know what has happened, why its happened and more importantly, whats going to happen tomorrow. Tell them its like being nestled in an eightway, adjustable, heated and ventilated seat surrounded by a 500watt sound system while floating on a suspension made of billowy clouds. Or you could just hand them your keys. [ male announcer ] red lobsters crabfest ends soon. Hurry in and try five succulent entrees like our tender snow crab paired with savory garlic shrimp.

Stephanie karl frisch and i both made news busters. My headline gop wants to turn poor people into mulch claims Stephanie Miller. Because we are a serious news program. Stephanie yes, and clearly i said the gop wants to turn pour people into mulch. Live talker Stephanie Miller and coatcatcher side kicks coat catcher. Stephanie that would be you two. Im a coat catcher. [ applause ] stephanie you two would never catch my coat. No. Stephanie the biggest thing i learn every time i make news busters, is he have a highly entertaining show. They provided a transcript and i was like wow that is really funny. You pay transcript Companies Good money to do that for you. Stephanie yes, and jim says so many funny things every day and i miss some of them being old and deaf. But then i get a transcript and im like that was really funny. Cohost jim ward imitating boehner. They are going to kill all pour people and then there is a whole transcript. And they beat you to a hitler reference. When the republicans dont agree with the president they want to slaughter the poor en masse, kind of like hitler. [ applause ] stephanie the comments are much more precious. We have got all of the mulch well ever need right between Stephanie Millers ears. Zing. Yikes. Bam. Nothing but comedy net there. Dont confuse mulch with soggy shredded wheat. What . Huh . Stephanie all right. Karl Stephanie Karl frisch bullfightstrategies. Com. So inciting to me Stephanie Karl frisch what did you do to make news busters. Good morning, you three, you are nothing but a common coat catcher, you two. I swear to god it sounds like a 1920s movies. You couple of coat catchers. Stephanie the gop also strangles puppies, pushes old ladies off of the stairs in her wheelchair, and tangles kittens. Geez. Karl frisch what did you do to make news busters . Im not sure but they took offense to me saying republicans hate government and thats why they dont run it very well. But they hate government so thats why they dont run it very well. Right. Bill press said you cant be in washington without giving you opinion about whether or not were going off the fiscal cliff, blah, blah blah. And i said the democrats tend to be the responsible party in terms of wanting to govern and then bill says because they hate it, and i say right. Why would you make some big operate well that you dont like. You are a couple of marksists. What did reagan say . The government is the problem. Right. They dont like the government. And i dont suppose the government is anything anybody would ever want to strangle in the bathtub. Stephanie no. All right. Lets dive in to rightwing world. [ circus music ] stephanie all right. Rush limbaugh. Folks im a little wornout fed up and very inpatient with these ongoing assaults on the people who work in this country. The current disaster is not teaching people a lesson, nothing will. Were not teaching people to be productive, and instead were teaching them that there is nothing wrong with being slovenly. It is stupid, its what they did in the soviet union. Kill ambition. To hell with that. Stephanie wow, someone is getting a little upset about losing their spare oxycontin stash. Lots of people have proposed 100 tax rate. Thats exactly what is on the table. You cant expect rush logic to enter into reality. Stephanie yes, and liberalism is to blame. [ bell chimes ] [ applause ] how . So stephanie doesnt matter jim. And also Rush Limbaugh marriage expert had something to do with they are not married. Well, he says that women one way to make women conservative is to marry them and he is trying to do that one lady at a time. Yes he is. Stephanie okay. Shawn handy. Republicans have allowed themselves to get caught in a circular firing squad, negotiating among themselves and now Tea Party Members are being removed from key committees. And john boehner adopted the rhetoric of rich versus the poor. Stephanie oh no. If sean hannity is on the case, it is going to get solved. Im shocked, i still cant believe, that boehner could be trying to move his caucus in the right direction stephanie huh oh. Oh, my goodness there you go. Now you are back go ahead. Im convinced its only matter of time before eric cantor pulls the strings back and puts the speaker back in his place. Stephanie exactly. Yes. Stephanie i love that geithner and the white house signalling that well go off the cliff if we have to. I posted something from the l. A. Times. Fiscal cliff lets take the plunge in the l. A. Times. He said the u. S. Deficit and debt will fall, Social Security will go on unharmed and well go back to tax rates that were better than the current ones. What do you think . I certainly dont want something that will put us into a recession. Thats more republican thinking. But i think ultimately pugh has a pole saying 53 of the American People will blame republicans, to which i can only imagine republicans saying, oh were finally ahead in a poll. Boner is like a slug there is a bright orange trail of cheat toe dust and bronzer leading from his office. Stephanie okay. Here you go. So many people are going to parttime work and being hurt. Everyone i know is already seeing cutbacks, and the economy is going to be disastrous and only going to get worse under obama. Stephanie by the way that was dexter von frisch . It was. Stephanie he just screams at ann coulters voice . Its like an earthquake he just screams before it happens. Stephanie kids carbonite backs up everything for you.

[ female announcer ] what would you call an ordinary breakfast pastry thats been wrapped in a flaky crust stuffed with a gooey center toasted up all golden brown then given a delicious design . A toaster strudel. Pillsbury toaster strudel. So delicious. So fun. Announcer Stephanie Miller. [ inaudible ] stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show, welcome it to, twentytwo minutes after the hour. We are so competitive, arent we karl . Thats right. Stephanie ed asner who is on todays show also made news busters. He asked a fox news producer if he could urinate on him. [ laughter ] stephanie all right. You win this round, asner. In fairness to asner, maybe he thought it was a shower with bill oreilly that he was getting into . [ laughter ] stephanie lets continue. Bryan fischer on that there American Family the kind of family that does not involve the gays. No. This whole concept of using a weapon for selfdefense is rooted in the teaching of christ. What . So we have a legal principal that is rooted in the teaching of christ. Its hard to get much more legitimate than that. How many people did jesus kill. Stephanie i dont remember jesus talking about the guns so much karl. I do. Remember when he said father forgive them for they know not what they do but they will have to pry this weapon out of my cold dead hands. Stephanie right. Why else would you wear a robe if you werent concealing. Stephanie all right then. Now [ inaudible ]. We have a huge problem in america that sharia is now being brought into our legal system. The Muslim Brotherhood is absolutely incredible. Were becoming a marxist nation. And everything were doing is right out of the marxist play book. Go back and read the communist manifesto if you dont believe me. And then look at what we have done in america. Stephanie i need some Light Reading on the plane on the way to washington so i think ill read that. Im going with delusional paranoia. When you first said this radio it occurred to me that yes they will give anybody a show on the right. And the second he say shiria law is they really be give anyone i did not know that chris spent his mornings monitoring ham radio. Yes thats part of my job. Stephanie oh, must we begin and end with Rush Limbaugh . Well, yeah. This morning there was a joint press conference that featured the socalled Republican Leadership. And i dont know why but they were smiling. What we got today was a seminar on how to surrender. It was weak. [ laughter ] stephanie an awesome disarray. I mean this has shades of of Immigration Reform in 2000 during the bush administration. You recall congress was ready to give president bush a bill that he would have signed for Immigration Reform and rightwing talk radio went ballistic and everybody backed down, so they could blame president obama for not passing something, and its remarkable to see everybody turning on congress that has not even come to the table with a legitimate compromise yet. Stephanie exactly. This is all preemptive teeth rattling. Stephanie and what romney just ran and lost on is hilarious. Thats how you compromise if you are a republican, you offer what you offered before and say it is compromise. Stephanie all right. Karl frisch if you want to make news busters you better come from something more insinary next week. [ laughter ] stephanie one of our listeners was relieved that was dexter von frisch barking, he thought it was ann coulters vagina. [ applause ] stephanie have a good one karl. You too. Stephanie bye. [ applause ] stephanie you know they do this so ill mention them. [ circus music ] stephanie gop wants to change pour people into mull sh claims ever inane Stephanie Miller. This is jack coleman. What it is about left wingers and their fantasies of mass murder. Hey, jim [ laughter ] see im not a coat catcher, clearly. Stephanie i just threw my coat, because its a whacky visual stunt. And he just threw it back at me. And see you would never catch my transcript. Jim ward immating john boehner. Thats the only thing that is going to work. Miller, producer chris lavoie. Yeah. Stephanie i learn jim is really funny, and you add nothing. I add nothing, why am i here . Press buttons and reflect. [ laughter ] stephanie turn that back of your neck into a bigger package of hot doings. Miller turn pour people into mulch, ward again imitating boner, and when we come back added something of marginal value. Wow, cant wait to hear this. Stephanie all right. Twentyeight minutes after the hour. Right back on the Stephanie Miller show. You know the kind of guys who do like verse mortgage commercials . Those types are coming on to me all the time now. She gets the comedians laughing. Thats hilarious . And the thinkers thinking. Okay, so theres wiggleroom in the Ten Commandments is what youre telling me. You would rather deal with ahmadinejad then me. Absolutely and so would mitt romeny. Shes joy behar. And the best part is that current will let me say anything. What the hell were they thinking . Only on current tv. At cepacol weve heard people are going to extremes to relieve their sore throats. Oh, okay, you dont need to do that. But i dont want any more of the usual lozenges and i want new cooling relief ugh. How do you feel . Now im cold. Hmm. This is a better choice. New cepacol sensations cools instantly, and has an active ingredient that stays with you long after the lozenge is gone. Ahhh. Not just a sensation sensational relief. The only class in this hat is announcer Stephanie Miller. Stephanie it is the Stephanie Miller show. Are they shooting my beaver . Yes, your Christmas Beaver. Stephanie okay good. Well call him ducky. Stephanie okay. Thirtyfour minutes after the hour. 1800steph12 the phone number toll free from anywhere. So its getting exciting now on the fiscal cliff, now, ladies and gentlemen. Yes. Stephanie the administration is prepared to go off the cliff if republicans do not agree to raise rates on the wealthy. Lets check in with congressman peter welch. Good morning. Good morning. It is exciting. Stephanie it is getting exciting. Stephanie i just posted a piece called fiscal cliff lets take the plunge. But it was an interesting analogy of what tim geithner was saying. Thats exactly right. And we have the leverage. The president knows he has theed with at his back and thats the solid election victory, where he reason quite explicitly on raising the tax rates on the top 2 . So he know the American People support it. The majority of romney voters on exit polls supported that position. So this is not just dealing with boehner. Its dealing with the American People. And the most important thing is to get a longterm component of the plan and the Election Results favor him, number 1. Number 2 january 1st comes we put a bill on the floor, we quote lower taxes because we couldnt provide tax relief at that point for 98 of americans, and theres no way they would vote against that. Stephanie this raising the debt ceiling debacle he said is not a game im going to play again. We blew it last time. And if you remember the republicans for the first time in the history of the country, literally started playing russian roulette with americas credit, and it was such brinksmanship that we ended up having the markets panic and had the fist downgrade in the history of our country. And that cost billions of dollars to taxpayers. In the past both parties have grandstanded on the debt ceiling increase. The out of power party always using it to make their criticisms of the parties in power. Butting grandstanding is not merely pulling the plug. And that
