Don't touch that dial (I hate right wing pro-America talk radio)

GOOD MORNING. I'm Pat Riotic, your host on the Excess in Broadcasting network. Regular listeners know I am not an angry person. But this morning every red-blooded cell in my star-spangled body is trembling with indignation at what I've been hearing and seeing.

[Texas_Jarhead]

bla bla BARF!

[Terriergal]

You forgot the BARF ALERT

[cincinnati65]

Chalk up another sociopath who wants all their "rights" with none of their responsibilities.....

[CanisMajor2002]

Not a single name to go with his quote. Fearing a libel suit, perhaps.

"Ass." /scott evil

[1Old Pro]

A very poorly written commentary. Frankly, I would require this person to talk some writing courses before I'd publish her blather.

[cicero's_son]

I'm sorry, but I just think it's hilarious these days to see liberals falling back on the old "halfwits in headsets" line of attack.

Calling talk radio hosts and listeners stupid may have worked 5 or 6 years ago, but today is just sounds desperate and out of touch.

If this is the best they can do, we're in great shape.

[cardinal4]

Im speechless.

[Nagual]

You left wing idiots had your chance to make America a better place and blew it. Just sit back and watch. When we get done with business you can "love it , or leave it".

[EternalVigilance]

A vivid demonstration of why the left can't survive in talk radio--their attempts at 'humor' lack the necessary prerequisite of containing a large dose of truth.

[Interesting Times]

Of course she hates.

She's a leftist, isn't she?

[TruthFactor]

Send this idiot a message. Ignore him.

[doug from upland]

Yet these right-wing dolts keep spewing their misguided, anti-democratic garbage on radio and television shows, giving aid and sustenance to Saddam Hussein. What could please this tyrant more than seeing Americans demand that dissent be stifled -- thus making our country more like his?

=========================

What is Joan trying to do ------ compete with Nicholas DeGenova? What could please this tyrant more, Joan? Well, how about making him believe America is not in favor of this war so that he will be emboldened to keep fighting? That would please him. Making him think that we will just pull the plug like in Vietnam. That will please him.

No, Joan, dear, if our country were more like his you would be beaten, raped, have your tongue cut out, and left to bleed to death in Golden Gate Park.

To compare our society to his is the height of lunacy. That is one of the main problems with the left (they have so many). They cannot distinguish with moral clarity the difference between the Nazis and George Bush.

[Bob J]

They...just...don't...get...it.

Probably never will.

[skeeter]

Stuff like this is why the Chronicle is circling the bowl.

[Mister Baredog]

Yes, I am angry that they're trying to undermine my country's most cherished ideals.

She must be angry because she thinks people should have the right to PUKE wherever they want, lie down in the street, throw rocks at cops, burn things, break windows, etc. These are the people she is sticking up for. She is angry about CONSERVATIVE FREE SPEAKERS EVERYWHERE. RUSH is right, when liberals feel powerless they get really entertaining to watch, defined by their kooks!

[TheClintons-STILLAnti-American]

Talk about cluless. I guess this moron thinks "political correctness" is a "right wing" policy, since she at least writes as if the America the left wants to bring about is the same America our troops defended in WWII.

It just goes to show the power of the mind to see what we want to see. And the low standards of many of the publications out there.
