Your post got me thinking again of these people. BO seems to have the same people on all the time - Sharpton, Geraldo, Newt come to mind though I have not seen Dick Morris on there for awhile. Before Tony Snow became the new press secretary, he was on there all the time also. Now, you will not see a guy like Wesley Clark on there but Col. Hunt is on there all the time. He'll talk to Colmes but never mentions Hannity. Hannity will have Col. North on but I have never seen Ollie on BO's show. The G Man can't stand him and vice versa but the G Man thinks the world of Rush. Every now and then, BO will take a shot at Rush but to my knowledge, Rush doesn't even acknowledge the existance of BO - which must piss him off! Every now and then, BO will have Laura Ingraham or Ann Coulter on but I get the feeling they are toying with him. My favorite moment is when Ann verbally b-slapped on his own program. Man, did he get upset. Back to my point - are most of these talk show hosts jealous and envious of each other? I listen to Hannity and Mark Levin. I get the impression I could get along with someone like Levin but could not stand to be around Hannity. Yesterday, when interviewing Mary Cheney, I thought he was low class joking in her face about her father shooting someone and then asking her questions about her sexuality. Yet, he does wonderful things for the troops and helps them out. He and Col. North -whom I would like to have backing me up anytime - seem to get along great. I guess it is just different personalities.
It's going to be hard. But you have to realize that you don't have a LIFE. All this obsessionary substitute for thought is focused on a world that really does not exist.
This passing parade of "Infotainment Personalities" is an illusion, a moving cavalcade of sensationalitic National Inquirer clap trap that passes for people like you as socio-political theater.
It's all bullsh**.
You gotta get outdoors.
