Don't be such a maroon. If I don't like someone on TV or radio I don't watch or listen to them. I don't run to Dr. Laura threads and say that I can't stand her nasally tone and abrupt nature, I just don't listen to her.

Now, elected and appointed government people have always been fair game and will continue to be.

What's so difficult to understand about that?

Not only that, but, like you said, you can shut the media types out. But elected officials and bureaucrats can pass laws and enforce them in a way that dramatically affects your life. So it is proper to hold them to a high level of scrutiny.

In fact, I don't think Rush or Sean or any other talk show host gives a rip if someone is whining about their approach on an issue. In fact, I think they probably dig it because that means they've got a committed listener.

BTW, I think alot of folks post contrarian views on FR just to see what kind of flame war ensues. If someone flames me, I just say they're full of it. It hrdly ever changes my mind about squat.

Oh, I flagged you because TLB did, and it was to the same post.

It was in reference to TLB bumping someone's comment about disagreeing without being disagreeable. That doesn't happen on FR, most of the time. Why should Hannity get special treatment?
