Sonic Overload 11/10/14

It’s almost a week after the elections, with the Republicans taking over the Senate and expanding their majority in the House. I covered it pretty well on the Stench Radio show last week but touch on it briefly this week. One thing I did forget to mention was Obama’s plan to send more troops to Iraq. Wonderful... soon, there will be even more veterans to honor on Veterans Day. I’m not saying that to disparage any veterans but just point out that it’s a shame this has to continue. And one hopes that the Republican-controlled Congress won’t turn their backs on the veterans by cutting programs that assist them... or cut any other valuable social programs for that matter but we know how that’ll probably come out.

Enough... enjoy the show... which I begin with a tribute of sorts to the tearing down of the Berlin Wall 25 years ago this past weekend...
