In the late 80's - early 90's I was never much of a Stern fan or detractor...I really never paid him much attention. After being assigned to a small postage stamp sized outpost in Korea in 96-7, I had little to do and bought a copy of "Miss America." While I may personally object to some of his morality (or absence thereof) and coarseness, one has to acknowledge an intelligence far beyond want his well publicized juvenile antics would suggest. Intellectually he's probably a lot closer to the libertarian and small government conservatives on FR than many here would care to admit.

Although having read "Miss America" over 12 years ago, I distinctly recall the account of his "meeting" with Michael Jackson; it literally had me ROTFLMAO.

“Intellectually he’s probably a lot closer to the libertarian and small government conservatives on FR than many here would care to admit.”

Agreed. He’s actually quite intelligent; not to mention a savvy businessman....

I would have agreed with that until about 4 or 5 years ago. He even supported the Iraq war. Then he went full blown liberal. He turned against it, sucks up to Al Franken and Michael Moore. He's what I call a liberaltarian. He likes to think he's Libertarian, but he's really a liberal Democrat.

He supported Hitlery in the primaries.

But lately he's been complaining about how the Obamassiah wants to raise his taxes, that he pays 50% of what he earns in taxes and is pissed that Obama says he's not paying enough.

The FCC thing plus the taxes *might* make him support McCain, but I wouldn't hold my breath. He's vehemently pro-abort and the Hollywood Gay Mafia got to him back when he made his movie and he's pro-gay all the way.

He doesn't have as big of an audience as he had in the past, but it wouldn't hurt if he came out against the Obamassiah.
