What surprised me sometimes is that no mater how we loathe and despise the MSM, and these shows, for their mendacity, I think that 50% or more of their audience must be conservatives and Freepers...I think we all have a large masochistic gene..Look, fer instance, most here really can't stand Chris Matthews...let Hardball generates some of the longest threads here...onlu logical conclusion is that 85% of his audience are Freepers...we should all stop watching ..totally..his ratings would plummet..
There is going to have to be a 12 step program. Actually, I mostly watch to see what the enemy is up to.
Masochistic tendencies" one explanation.
From my standpoint, it's a "know your enemy all the time thing", for me.
I think a lot of us watch (I know I do) to just keep an eye on the "enemy" so to speak. Forewarned is forearmed or something like that. I just love it when he has to liberal lefties and all 3 just hammer GWB. Chris thinks it's good TV but even KO is beating him in the ratings now.
Stephie just nailed Teddy for his 1967 comments about Marshall and the USSC
