I don't think he should lose his show. Definately not. I've heard worse on the radio (by liberals of course). Anyone who pegs all conservatives for racists just because of one man's misspeak has an agenda. BTW, he sounded tired to me and it was the end of the show.

He failed to gracefully pull off an argument that is actually quite difficult rhetorically. It is a point with a number of components, and one or more of the components refer to some great evil. Since the evil is great, it is incumbent upon the speaker to give it commensurate gravity, while tying the whole together.

An example: while debating (defending) the Iraq War, I've tried to expound on the many-faceted evils of Saddam Hussein. It is difficult to strike the right tone - if you try to stay logical and objective then it sounds too bland and bloodless.

Also, the whole art of moral reasoning is in disarray in the present era.

I really like Mornings in America. Part of it is I really wish I could afford to put my kids in K12 Homeschool. That's big bucks!

I want a "Stack O Matic"
I would have to get LPs to play on it though.

It's funny cause I called to ask my sis about it. She said that she heard it and just knew that he was gonna get in trouble for it. She was going to call me but had to run to a meeting for it.
She sent a bunch of new Pollack Jokes and said that if we aborted all the Pollacks, we would have nothing to laugh at!
The heifer!
