You could just hear the biscotti being dipped and the chocolate being drooled over. Phyllis Schlafly couldn't make it, but NPR still managed a Heritage Foundation word to the wise. But listen, the girls sounded very 'up'! Too bad they don't know they're mere shills for the good ol' boy management above them.
