Drudge had a piece a few weeks ago

I would like to hear from a lot more Hollywood conservatives. If more like him would come out of the closet we might actually see a red California. So many people out there are afraid to buck the trend that they not only don't speak their mind but also don't vote their conscience.
The irony is that Al Franken wrote the SNL sketch where Buck Henry played a talk-show host who couldn't get anybody to call him. He had to resort to increasing ridiculous topics like "Soviet Communism, let's give it a chance" "Killing puppies - I'm in favor of it" or "Hitler, boy do we need him now." Of course noone ever called in. Once again, life imitates art.
Are we sure that using Franken and "straight men" in the same sentence is appropriate?
Keep your eyes peeled for Liberals attempting to persuade the FCC to reinstate the “fairness doctrine” (happening as we speak – er, post).
This would require stations to “balance” their liberal and conservative talk segments or risk losing their broadcast licenses (3 hours of Rush, 3 hours of Franken).
Hey, if you can’t gain an audience by popularity, try by fiat!

A puss like that screams blithering idiot from across the river doesn't........what an ignorant POS that loser was, is and always will be IMO.
I'm pretty sure I dislike him just from the picture.
It will be interesting to see how they stack up in the ratings when Talker's does their host listernership review later this fall. IT will be based on Spring listenership.
Al is keeping it in a lockbox,apparently.
The show consisted of a couple of female announcers whipping up the audience into a frenzy about the GOP victory, telling everyone it was a fraud, putting on a few even more crazed callers, and -- mostly -- exhorting people to send money to some organization that was going to fund a recount in Ohio and (I think) several other states.
I believe that organization later turned out to be a fraud that took the money and made a bunch of excuses about why they couldn't do the recount.
That was it. That's the only time I've ever heard AA. Totally, absolutely, pathetic.
Have you ever seen that cartoon of the man talking to his dog, and over the dog's head is a "thought balloon" containing pure gibberish? I think that's what liberals hear when they listen to conservatives on the radio. The words, the thoughts, the ideas, make zero sense to them. It's all gibberish. All they are able to make out is criticism of liberals and of liberal ideas, which they interpret as hatred and bigotry. Conclusion: that conservatives like to listen to gibberish hatred and bigotry, and that if they put on gibberish hatred radio aimed at liberals, they will have the same success as Rush Limbaugh.
It's especially funny that they think they're the smart ones.

Added to keywords,Coop! :)

Sorry, back to your regularly-scheduled posting...
I had no idea BB had a radio show -- but you can bet your AM dial I knew Cupid-lips did.
Most of the enlightened libs are too busy smoking pot and crack to listen to Error America. They have much better things to do, such as working on their karma, or sitting in ponds with frogs...
LOL!
Another truth that gets left on the dance floor is that there are a lot of people that vote democrat, but actually very few democrats in the true sense of the word (as one would define it today). And on top of that, there are even fewer real liberals. So if everybody that wants to hear and say "amen" to Air America's message tuned in, they would still be way short of anything remotely close to a success. I compare Air America to local cable access. Their mothers are the only ones watching, or in this case, listening.
Air who?
