Useful Idiots? Some On Right May Want Air America To Stick Around
The Radio Equalizer- Brian Maloney ^ | September 19th, 2005 | Brian Maloney

Of our efforts to expose Air America's sleazy Enron-like corporate behavior, is it safe to assume conservatives are united in support?

To a point, yes.

There certainly are some, though, who'd rather not see this investigative effort become too successful. That's because the liberal radio network's programming has gone so far off the deep left end, it's now a GOP gold mine.

By the same token, would Republicans want Rep. Jim McDermott of Seattle, or Sen. Ted Kennedy defeated? While having no impact on national political trends, the moonbat wing of the Democrat party provides a bounty of choice quotes for fundraising letters, making the answer a firm "no".

I was tempted to call this guy names:

Kennedy & McDermott are REAL dangers to the republic! Only the right knows this. The rest of the somnambulists look upon Kennedy as a last romantic vestige of Camelot. He IS the mainstream of the Democrat party.

Actually, I want the investigation to be clean and for justice to be served. I also would like to see Air America stay on the air because they say the wackiest things, and the more liberals that are listening to Al Franken, the fewer liberals that are clogging the phone lines on conservative talk radio.

We can criticize the likes of Michael Moore and Howard Dean but to some extent these libs HELPED us because they showed the far left was taking over the Dem. party, and some "in the middle" could only shake their heads and vote for Bush.

Also it made sure to bring out the conservative base of the GOP: people who said "there's no way I can let these people get into power...again".

There were a lot more "Democrats for Bush" than "Republicans for Kerry" last year. Perhaps a repeat of the
"Reagan Democrat" factor? The conservative wing of the Dems has fallen away from the party and either become GOP or independent, and the more the moonbats howl, the more of them defect.

>> would like to see "Baghdad Jim" McDermott and Teddy Kennedy (D-UI) defeated at the polls

>>(D-UI)
Ha! Howie Carr calls him "Sen Kennedy (D-Chappaquiddick)"

It's time for a change in Massachusetts. A lot has gone on in the 43 years I've been on this Earth. But guess what: Ted Kennedy has been the senator of my state SINCE THE YEAR OF MY BIRTH, 1962

And yes folks, he is running again next year.

The left probably wants the most extreme voices of the Right to remain on the air, too, because they feel that people will be shocked, shocked by them and vote _Dim_ instead! Of course to them, anyone who's the _slightest bit_ NON-moonbat is automatically far right wacko!
