Air America, the liberal radio counterpart to Rush Limbaugh, is now asking its listeners to send in money, leading some analysts to say the network is "crumbling."

The network, featuring voices including Al Franken and Janeane Garofalo, has developed a program where people become "associate" members by contributing cash.

Is that true? (Maybe they could ax Rush for a loan in order to keep the lights on - eh?)

If you send in a penny with their signature required, does it cost them more money to process it than it brings in ?

I like that look on his face. It is the same look he will have when he meets his maker.

What's the tax status of Air? Are liberals going to donate then find they can't take it off their taxes?

Rush was touting his new bumperstickers today.

What is Franken selling? Or is the idea just to send him your money and get nothing back in return? (Crazy libs gotta learn about Capitalism!)

If you send in a penny with confirmation required, does that legally obligate them to issue you a receipt ?

I suppose they could refuse the donation, but then they would have to choose to refuse similar donations from others.

I'll send the Scam America Telethon $20 if Garofalo gets a "Free Republic" tattoo on her saggy wrinkled butt.

Hmm. Maybe they'll change their name.

These guys were doomed from the start. What companies are going to advertise on a network that is inherently anti-capitalist? No ad revenue, no money to keep the transmitter tubes glowing.

Besides, with the exception of the Hollywood 'elite', most liberals are poor and young. They couldn't afford to buy any of the crap hawked on the shows anyway. When you listen to Rush, et. al. every third commericial is for a geriatric product or some kind of B-to-B service. The age/income gap is huge between Rush and AirAmerica.

Maybe they can sell the operation to Al Gore, the media wiz, the next Murdoch.

I sent a paid for Kerry campaign return envelope back with 50 some pennies taped inside... I'm sure it came up postage due. Worth every penny!
