These troops have now lost their voice in Sacramento

Completely untrue.

KTKZ 138 / 105.5 is a vastly superior station: conservative, pro-America, thoughful.

I never listened to Williams, anyway.

Dan: With all due respect to Eric Hogue and the people at KTKZ, we at Move America Forward heard from people serving in Iraq and Afghanistan who listened to Mark Williams all the time. I cannot think of one time that a serviceman/woman serving overseas ever told us about how the KTKZ stream was a lifeline for them, the way that they did with KFBK and in particular the "Mark Williams Show."

Not sure how often you listened to Mark's show you typed above that you never listened to Williams anyway, but he had countless tributes to the troops - moving, emotional stuff that certainly made me emotionally sappy every time I heard it. And Mark didn't just talk, he was an ACTION guy and he would give up nights and weekends and mornings at the drop of a hat to go help out a pro-military event or group.

Eric Hogue didn't really take on the "Support Our Troops" issue in a meaningful way - other than for his malicious and untrue attacks on Move America Forward out of bitterness over the fact that we worked with Mr. Wiliams on pro-troop rallies and events.

To be 100% accurate and fair I will concede this. There is one time since MAF was formed when I thought Hogue and KTKZ did a better job at the pro-military stuff than KFBK and Williams. And that was when Hogue did his stint with Rich Botkin's trip. That was great radio and Botkin's a great American hero.
