In the morning I tune to our local RW radio station. THE dominant radio station in the area.
The morning host posits the following about the Census:
In the city of Richmond (read :BLACK) there has been about a 65% return rate on the Census. He says that he
supposes that most of the non-responses are from "the Courts" meaning the projects, "the 'hood" his producer in the background says. The host goes on to say how dangerous it will be for census takers to knock on doors in "the Courts" because "you never know who or what is on the other side of that door".
Blatantly racist.
He then has an "expert" on from George Mason University (reknowned conservatives) to decry the "Cash for appliances" program that the state of Virginia (thank you Tim Kaine) will be starting this weekend. The "expert" admits that he doesn't know much about he EnergyStar program other than that Federal regulators caught several appliance makers making bogus claims on energy savings. This was not evidence of good enforcement it was a sign that the whole thing should be scrapped. The "expert" admits that he doesn't know how the state will operate this system and he doesn't know WHY this is being done. He just doesn't like it.

Rush was on a rant about all the terrorism that happened on Clinton's watch and how HE initiated terrorism "once at Waco no actually twice... Ruby Ridge"
Ruby Ridge happened in 1992, in Idaho. Clinton was the governor of Arkansas.
