  • Unabashed Leftist Ideology/Propaganda

    OMG! Where to begin? About 30 minutes in it was actually comical the rate at which the relentless leftist talking points and Liberal Democrat Propaganda continued with relentless intensity and no sign of abating. This podcast exemplifies everything Radical Liberals stand for and offers compelling evidence that liberalism really is a mental illness. Too funny!
