It's not a man, baby! It's Helen Thomas, the Press Lady.

[HoustonCurmudgeon]

You are correct that Hannity is uninformed on many topics. I sometime cringe because he blows it so badly.

Ingraham is better informed but either misses the point callers are making or just doesn't listen well. Almost every show she attacks a point because she missed or mistook what the caller said.

[LiteKeeper]

I put Gallagher in the same league with Hannity.
They both amaze all the old women in their remedial GED classes.

I agree...Hannity would not be who he is today if he had not started out by following Rush on a NYC radio station. He really is an intellectual lightweight - more of a street-brawler than a Talk Show host.

[NYC Republican]

Do you agree with post #206?

[CyberAnt]

Those who have seen Hannity in person would not agree with you.

Savage is just that: savage! If you like that style.

It is good that HE understands the historic importance of re-electing Bush. Those that don't harm the country.

Laura Ingraham's Stone Phillips imitiations are absolutely hilarious..

Laura Ingraham's Stone Phillips imitiations are absolutely hilarious..

They ripped him apart, re: Stone's interview of Bobby Brown. Hysterical.

[NYC Republican]

It is good that HE understands the historic importance of re-electing Bush. Those that don't harm the country.

That's Savage for you, he's urging people to NOT vote for President Bush. To paraphrase President Bush's phrase, "You're Either With Us or Against Us", You're Either With Bush Or Against Bush", if it's the latter, you're supporting SKerry. That's disgraceful.

I needed to breathe for air after that Bobby and Whitney bit, I was laughing so hard..

[auggy]

"Am I the only Freeper that enjoys Savage the most?"

I like him, when I get a chance to listen. I get a kick at how he can really get pissed and it is just comical to listen to him rant and rave.

I am kind of the same way, in that sense.

He gets a little to far out in right field for me sometimes. Or, is it left field.

Rush is top dog. No one even gets close to him.

As far as, his self promotion, I think not. I really think the guy is probably very humble.

I also listen to KSKY-Dallas. I enjoy Bill Bennett's "Morning in America". It's on from 5am-8am Monday through Friday. It's very low key and thoughtful. He has some really interesting guests. Just what I need for early in the morning. By 8 I'm ready for Laura Ingraham. I'm so glad we now have KSKY!

First up, I do not have a financial interest in Pogo or any retailer.

I have bought a Pogo Radio YourWay to record programs directly off the air so I can keep up with all the choices out there. It is a pocket sized AM/FM radio that records directly to memory (it has 32 Mb internal and can take SD cards up to 256 Mb). The system can be programmed to record up to 10 programs, but setting up a program is extremely counter intuitive. The programs can be listened to directly on the unit or uploaded to a PC. I'm listening to this morning's Laura Ingraham show on "flash delay".

The internal 32 Mb will store about 4 hours of programming. The 256 should hold about 40 hours. The recording sounds about as good as local AM radio. I have .mp3s on the 256 as well, and the sound on them is easily as good as my Archos JBMM.

I've done worse with $125.

[NYC Republican]

Not a bad idea, though many of the programs are available on the web, even after the intial broadcast

[mbraynard]

Because you mention it being in the book and me having not seein it in the book causes a red flag - I'm sure you understand. I recall that the prison guards had tried to set him up to look like he had a mistress by switching a letter he sent to a woman and instead sending it to his wife, and that his wife was not deceived.

[mbraynard]

What part/section? I have a paper back copy and will go look.

When Laura is on topic and rolling , she is #1 in my book.

She gets a lot of high profile guests as well, even to rival Imus.

[muleskinner]

1)Rush
2) Ingrahamer! - except when she does the travelocity British accent
3) H-A-double N-I...T and Y spell Hannity. Proud of all the books that I've written....etc.
4)Art Bell when he has Bigfoot stories.

Savage is good when he tells his stories about growing up in N.Y., but I've heard the one about cleaning antiques with sodium cyanide four times in the past 6 months!
Don't get the others.

[threat matrix]

I love Art Bell too. What is it about the Travelocity commecial with Laura that bugs everyone so?? (lol)

[Bluntpoint]

He went for a few weeks on his radio show defending his infidelity.

He really is a cad.
