I looked at another post he made; I think we've got a DU troll here. Get him!

Here's another post he made:

I'm sick of liberals complaining about the civilian deaths in Iraq. I mean, Saddam killed 180,000, and we have only directly killed a little over 10,000 (though admittedly in less time than Saddam had). I also think that the civilians in Iraq might have been more afriad of Saddam than they are the current lawlessness and daily murderous attacks from insurgents. I'm sure they would rather live in the current conditions with rare access to electricity, and 28 hour waits at gas pumps than live under the threat of an evildoer tyrant. I mean, come on, we had a civil war and look how good we are doing 160 years later?? Maybe one day Iraq will be invading us and freeing us from some evildoer liberal, gay-loving, terrorist-patronizing Democrat that is trying to bring our nation down by raising taxes on us God-fearing Chrisitians. Gooood Bliiiis America!

"Al Franken does not have and never had any responsibility for this loan," Mr. Goldberg said in a written statement. "His role at Air America was then and remains today as on-air talent."

There. I hate sentences that are too wordy.

We got him, he's a goner.

I tell you, almost every troll I've run into here is so incredibly stupid. They blow their cover with obvious comments the same day they join.

What hypocrites the leftist media are. No coverage at all on this one. Compare it to the coverage of Rush Limbaugh's pill scandal. In the one case, one person had become addicted to pain killers and it was a big deal. In the other, a group of leftist elites rob from a fund provided for poor people, to support a radio show, but it's no big deal.

I'd like to know where their current funds are coming from. It sure ain't advertising revenues. Listen to any random hour (if you can stand it) and you will hear PSAs for McGruff and the Energy Hog repeated over and over and over and over, sometimes the same one twice in the same commercial break!

Yeah, those trolls are seriously brain dead. They are so caught up in that so-called "freedom of speech thing" that they don't know how to watch what they say when talking to us Republicans that are able to remove their thoughts when we disagree with them. Gosh, they are so silly!

This isn't a debate forum, chump. There are other places for that.

Libs are so caught up in their freedom of speech, and so convinced that everyone's trying to take it away, they're paranoid and narcissistic.

NO ONE'S TRYING TO TAKE YOUR STUPID FREEDOM OF SPEECH!!! You're so convinced that they are, but they aren't! Has anyone really lost their freedom of speech in this country? NO? No one has? Good, then GET OVER IT!!!

Anticipating further negative press...

What on Earth negative press is she talking about? I haven't seen the MSM spike a story so thoroughly since Sandy Burger accidentally stuffed secret documents into his clothes and then accidentally shredded them when he got home.

AIR AMERICA ADJUSTS $TATIC
By TOM TOPOUSIS
Thu Sep 8, 6:00 AM ET

Air America has agreed to put the entire $875,000 it received from a Bronx-based Boys & Girls Club into an escrow account while the controversial loan is investigated by the city, the network's bosses announced yesterday.

The owner of the left-leaning radio network had previously agreed to repay the money in installments.

Last month it made the first down payment into an escrow account controlled by the station's lawyer, rather than directly to the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club, a nonprofit social-services organization.

The city's Depart of Investigation, which is scrutinizing the bizarre loan, wanted all the money in escrow until it end its probe and authorizes payment.

Yesterday Danny Goldberg, CEO of Air America, announced that the board of directors of the network's owner had accelerated its payment schedule and deposited the full $875,000 into the escrow account.

The city yanked $9.7 million in government contracts from the club earlier this year as it launched an investigation of its finances and whether club officials falsified documents.

State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer is also investigating the Air America-Gloria Wise connection.

The escrow move comes as it was disclosed yesterday that Air America's star, Al Franken, signed an agreement last year to repay the entire loan.

The comedian and liberal commentator said last month he didn't know of the loan until late July, adding Air America's decision to repay it was a "moral obligation."

But it was reported yesterday that Franken and Air America's former chairman, Evan Montvel Cohen, were among the signers of a confidential agreement in November 2004 in which Air America agreed to repay the Gloria Wise loan.

Cohen said no one at the network knew of the money transfers from Gloria Wise when they happened, apparently between October 2003 and March 2004.
