Right Wing Radio 'Drunks' Decried by Liberal Activists

[Congressman Billybob]

Thank you, my friend, for posting this account of another chapter meeting of the Million Moron March. I noted with special delight the contribution of "Jeff Faux, distinguished fellow at the liberal Economic Policy Institute."

"Faux" is, of course, the French word for "false." The idea that someone who wallows in falsehoods like this is ever referred to as a "distinguished fellow" is positively delicious. These people lack the self-perception to realize how dumb they are -- and how disconnected from the American people.

Some of their political allies who have more money than brains will put up the coin to fund more "liberal talk radio." No matter who they pony up as hosts for such shows will fail, because the listeners aren't there, so the advertisers won't pay the freight. As long as the Dem-libs don't know what's wrong, they will continue to fail in the same old way -- like Cuomo, like Hightower, like Donohue. Couldn't happen to a better group of people.

Latest column, now up on UPI and FR, and due to be in the Asheville Citizen-Times on Sunday, "Surviving in the Smokies."

They just don't understand the concept of supply and demand. Liberal demand for liberal radio has already been supplied by NPR.

But let them start a liberal talk radio network if they want. They'll spend most of their time arguing with conservatives who call in, anyway.

To these left-leaning maggots I reply in the words of Franz

Kim Gandy, president of the National Organization for Women, charged that "Rupert Murdoch [and his] cronies" are "stifling our messages and keep our messages from being heard, and when we get them out, they are drowned in a sea of lies."

Kim, noone wants to hear from you or listen to your fight for the right to tell us all about your feminine hygiene issues.

Gandy observed: "I have come to realize that is my guiding principle. I want to return to a time in this country when if we can think it up, we can do it."

Hmmmm.

No mention of governing using the guiding light of the Constitution.

I think these people are the very ones the Founding Fathers foresaw, despised and tried to block from ever gaining power!

Gandy observed: "I have come to realize that is my guiding principle. I want to return to a time in this country when if we can think it up, we can do it."

A rare glimpse of honesty.

THIS, IN FACT, IS THE ONLY "GUIDING PRINCIPLE" OF THE LIBERALS: THEY WANT THE POWER TO DO WHATEVER THEY DAMN WELL PLEASE, AND TO SHOVE THEIR SMALLEST WHIMS DOWN THE THROATS OF EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

That's it. Their sole guiding principle. And THAT is why they are genetically incapable of any real leadership, or of doing what is actually right for the country.

[PLOM...NOT!]

For quite a while, I've been championing the cause of courtesy in political discourse.

Having courtesy in political discourse assumes that both sides possess good manners and etiquette(civility). I've witnessed firsthand that the left are incapable of producing either of these characteristics. I just shake my head, wish them well, and walk away.

How do you rate? I'm a charter member of the VRWC and still waiting for my first check from Scaife.

Ralph Neas has been doing that for years. He would personally attend Senate Judiciary Committee hearings when nominees were up for consideration. He was "the elephant in the living room" that nobody talked about--the eminence grise that determined who would get the third degree, and who would sail through confirmation with a nod.

Here's hoping that his petulant outburst means those days are finally over.

[CaptRon]

Wow! An entire conference dedicated to the use of ad hominem attacks.

[hellinahandcart]

Not even the $500 per diem for traveling to freeps? Sheesh. You're on the $#!tlist with wimpycat.

[TheCause]

Hey is that girl in the pic the one who was run over?
Please say it is so.

[spodefly]

Jeff Faux, distinguished fellow at the liberal Economic Policy Institute, lashed out at the culture of talk radio during a panel discussion entitled "Shrubbed: The Radical Project of George Bush."

This fellow is not so distinguished that he is above referring to the President as "Shrub" and calling people that participate in the 'FREE SPEACH" of talk radio drunks ... that really makes me want to listen to the rest of what he has to say.

[Leisler]

'tis too!

[xm177e2]

Hey! I resent that remark!

I resemble that remark!

[Billthedrill]

"You can't have bipartisanship when one side treats you like a tornado treats a trailer park," Henderson claimed.

Well, probably not. But considering the bulk of the article references "Stupidborough" and "drunks," one has to wonder which side Henderson is really talking about here.

"Can we hear one round for the Dixie Chicks?" Gandy asked to loud applause. "They have lots of new fans all over the country."

I'l bet that in the audience that applauded there weren't 5 people that will buy more than one CD or can even recognize them on the radio (not a lot of Dixie Chick play on NPR).

Campaign for America's Future, which states as its goal pushing the Democratic Party to the left.

Good, keep pushing them farther from the American public.

"I asked: 'What was it like when you were running the Interior Department, and you all created the Endangered Species Act, you protected amazing lands, you did these new and insightful and far-reaching things to protect our natural environment?" According to Callahan, Udall answered: "Basically, if you could think it up, you could do it."

Gandy observed: "I have come to realize that is my guiding principle. I want to return to a time in this country when if we can think it up, we can do it."

Scary! These people have to be kept out of power forever.

"The advantage of being a progressive is that you don't have to get drunk to make your speech."

On the other hand, lots of psychedelic drugs do help.
