If Obamacare Is Diet Mr. Pibb, What Soda Is Obamacare Lite?

Repealing Obamacare has been a rallying cry for Republicans since 2009, but the GOP's replacement bill --- Obamacare Lite --- is just a watered-down version of its predecessor. Thursday on radio, Glenn and his co-hosts did a comparative analysis of Obamacare, the new bill and various brands of soda.

Enjoy the complimentary clip or read the transcript for details.

GLENN: Hello, America. Welcome to the program. I would like you to call in right now and just answer this one question: How do you want the Republicans to vote today on health care? Repeal it or reject it? Which one?

STU: Well, is that the choice? Repeal, what?

PAT: It's vote for the bill or don't vote for it. Yeah.

GLENN: Yeah, take the Trumpcare.

PAT: Yeah.

GLENN: And vote for what's -- what you have. Or, you know, negotiate until the last minute, but still take this. Or reject it.

PAT: And if Obamacare was Coke, this is Coke Zero. Right? It's just -- it's Obamacare without caffeine. That's all it is.

STU: Well, Coke Zero has no calories. It's a delicious product.

JEFFY: I love Coke Zero.

STU: So I would not -- the free market is Coke Zero.

PAT: All right. It's tab --

STU: No, Tab is delicious.

PAT: Tab is not delicious.

STU: I have some at my house. They still make it, by the way.

JEFFY: What number should I call, Glenn?

GLENN: 888-727-BECK, Jeffy.

STU: There's actually a weird -- there's a Coke -- there's a product called Coke Life. Have you ever had it?

GLENN: Yes. Yes. It's Stevia.

PAT: What does it do? It gives you life?

STU: Well, sort of. It has -- instead of 0 calories -- a can of Coke is 150 calories. A can of Coke Zero is 0 calories. A can of Coke Life I think is 70 or 90 categories. Maybe 60. Something like that. It's an in between. And you think to yourself, well, why would I --

PAT: What?

STU: Why not have the real one or have the one where you're saying, okay, maybe I'll sacrifice a little taste or whatever and have 0 calories. Why would you go with the one that has 60 or 70 calories?

PAT: And this is what we're saying about this stupid bill.

STU: We got that. There's a great soda reference here.

GLENN: I don't know if we've really found it. Because we're starting with Coke.

This is like starting with MrPibb. You got to start with MrPibb.

PAT: Yeah, you have to start with something bad.

GLENN: You have to start with Diet MrPibb.

STU: Pibb Zero, is that what you're talking about?

GLENN: Yeah. You got to start with Diet MrPibb.

PAT: You actually have to start with a glass urine.

GLENN: And then work up to, what? Urine from the most healthy person you can find.

(laughter)

It's still urine, gang.

PAT: Yeah, it is.

JEFFY: It's healthy, though.

Former Obama admin. Secretary says we need a 'truth commission' to 'erase Trump's lies'

The far-left gets scarier each day. Now, former Obama administration Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich, is advocating for the establishment of a "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" once President Trump leaves office. He tweeted that the commission would "erase Trump's lies, comfort those who have been harmed by his hatefulness, and name every official, politician, executive, and media mogul whose greed and cowardice enabled this catastrophe." Glenn describes how similar models have been used in places like Serbia and Rwanda, and it never ends well for the minority party. In fact, Glenn says, an idea like this one can be used to further surveil and control the citizens who disagree.

How our 'free' press is censoring the truth like NEVER BEFORE

The New York Post released last week a report that COULD put an end to the Joe Biden campaign. It's too bad the NY Post is unable to share the story — which all centers on information found on the alleged Hunter Biden laptop mysteriously left at a computer repair store — with the world on social media. But the publication has been LOCKED from sharing stories on Twitter for over four days now. And it's not just the Post. Glenn describes how MSNBC's Chuck Todd blatantly disregarded fact during an interview with Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, how the Washington Post failed to correct the same claims, and how leaders at Facebook have direct ties to Joe Biden. Our "free" press continues to censor the truth and it becomes more and more frightening each day.

How Bill O'Reilly Would've Handled the Hunter Biden Story | Ep 86

The king of "No Spin" and bestselling author of "Killing Crazy Horse," Bill O'Reilly, dishes with Glenn about his time at Fox News. He explains why he believes he got labeled as "being difficult to work with," what happened when he asked executives if he could moderate a presidential debate, and what the first words he ever said to Glenn were (hint: It was typical O'Reilly). He also reveals how he would've handled the Hunter Biden email story if he were the editor of the New York Post, gives his predictions for the final debate (if it even happens), and imagines what Donald Trump will do if he doesn't win a second term. "He ain't gonna get down to Dallas and paint," O'Reilly says. "He'll probably buy the L.A. Lakers and fire LeBron James!"
