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.

Only in their wettest dreams.





That's like saying: Yugo, the Slavic automobile counterpart to the Ferrari Testarossa.....only stupider.

How would you get proof that she actually got the tattoo?

Do you really want to have to look at a picture of Garafalo's butt?

Maybe you could accept a notarized statement, but that would mean trusting these people. Do you think that's a good idea? They take money from children and old people with Alzheimer's.

You know, the kind the cartoon bank robbers used to run off with after the heist.

OMG!!!  That is too funny!  Maybe one of those black cartoon rain clouds could follow him too!!

Rush should "loan" them a Dan's Bake Sale promotion.

I'm holding out for the bullfrog who wears a straw boater hat and sings, "Hello My Baby."

Send them a coupon for International Coffees so that they can celebrate this moment in their lives.

LOL!!!  You are on a roll tonite!!!  Now I have Pepsi Lime all over the monitor!!!

...we'll invite you to meet our hosts and progressive leaders in your community.

Progressive = Marxist

I'm getting very tired of this rebranding of the same tired, ultra liberal crap, as being progressive.

(In the interest of timeliness, I will use the past tense.)

Air Amerika wasn't even funny -- never mind its clumsy-at-best, dangerous-at-worst politics. I caught bits of it on a cross-country road trip last spring, willing to ignore the politics and hoping for at least some legitimate humor. None to be heard. After each attempt at entertainment I always switched the radio dial back to Navajo talk (in Navajo) or pig reports.

They are a bunch of losers.

I just switched it on long enough to hear that Malloy guy say that W wants to kill his 14 month old daughter with air pollution. He said that he has to lie in bed at night wondering why W would want to kill his daughter. He was screaming by the time he finished and then there was almost a minute of total silence. This guy need medication.

Here is a so-called comedian trying to be taken seriously as a political commentator. What if, for example, Curly of The Three Stooges made such a career move, do you think he would be taken seriously? Of course Franken is not much of a comedian anyway, he kinda acts like a drugged out, brain dead type, and the nerdy look has been done to death. He's a wannabe comedian and politcal commentator and unsuccessful at both.

[Xenalyte]

I stand corrected. He wears a very dapper top hat. But he still knows how to get his groove on . . . in Technicolor!

FReepmail me to join this PING list.

I told them that I would rather have my tongue nailed to the street then be flattened by a steamroller than listen to Franken.

Then without missing a beat they asked me about Jeannane Garfaolo. I told them I would rather have my nuts bitten off by pitbulls and bleed slowly to death than listen to that shrew.

Then they asked about Randy Rhodes. Before I could answer, sommebody finally realized I was goning be a "dead end" and hug up before I could reply.

The Liberal voice(s). Of course it hard for, yet, another Liberal broadcast media to compete in an oversaturated market. But, then, who said Liberals believed in a free market to spew their brand of the shifting-sand truth? NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, the BBC and all of Europes media, the TV and movie industry, and the SCHOOLS. Where does one turn to hear about notions of truth that actually play out or become reality except with Rush, FOX and few other radio or print media? In the field of journalism, truth is often the first casualty - especially when the product does not come with a "warranty". Were the folks responsible for the media with a warranty it would change their liability (lie-abaility) to the point that they could no longer lie.
