Funny things happen when Liberals don't get paid.

There are a few AAR "affiliates" that only carry Franken. The original deal was for stations to take the whole AAR package or nothing. A compromise was reached when most stations weren't that stupid. Franken's show was their most viable show ( tells us what a bad idea it all was from the start ) so those stations who wanted just it also had to take Randi Rhodes show bundled with his. These arrangements count for a good percentage of AAR's "affiliates". When Franken goes, their all important number of stations will take a big drop. Should be interesting.

Apparently they had that little funnel-shaped tin thing on their mooring line installed backwards.

We FReepers could go on for days.

And often do. Just ask the Dixie Chicks.

This can't be a surprise to anyone. He probably hasn't been paid in months. And if there's one thing that's more important to a lib than all the socialist, egalitarian rhetoric, it's money.

Besides, Al has political ambitions. [snicker]

Going without pay will cause employees to leave, no matter how much a cheese-eater they are

"Of course.....his work is done now that the Liberals are back in charge of Congress..."

I think you mean " His work is done now that there's no money left to steal from the Boys $ Girls Clubs".

I thought that number of stations carrying Air America's was now in the negative numbers.

Thanks! I knew someone would take the time to enlighten me.
I wonder if this means Err America is gonna aget a bit more cash from Soros? Enough to pay 2nd stringers, anyway.

LOL Thanks for the ping, I hadn't seen this thread. Obviously Frankin isn't keen on volunteer work.
