Bad Santa

Mark Belling is talking about a Santa Claus at a Wal-Mart who told a kid who asked if Santa flies to Kuwait that the Iraq war was started by the President to make Vice President Cheney rich. Pretty low, as there can only be one explanation why a child might ask this, she has a family member serving over there. In this case, it's the girl's father.

One caller has called to defend the Santa, saying perhaps the Santa wasn't properly trained. Belling responded what training does a Santa need?

I just have this weird mental image of Belling as a Santa. "What? A pony? Where are you going to put the damn thing? Paul, aren't you screening these requests?"
