A Wonketeer writes, point your browser here (link) at noon and you will be able to listen to this crap fest yourself.

Don't do it before noon or you will be subjected to more 1950's music than you can handle.

When you think about it, it totally makes sense : Air America the liberal radio network, will not be broadcasting in the DC metro area.. DC went 70 percent for Gore! They don't need convincing.

We suspect that Air America will blow. Then again, it could suck.

Or perhaps it will achieve some mysterious simultaneous combination of the two. And while we are normally unopposed to mocking things that we have no direct knowledge of, this material seems rich.

For those of you who reside in one of the five areas covered by the Air America 'empire,' please send along your thoughts and comments.

Is this really G.Gordon Liddy? Sounds like him...maybe the only coherent caller he has?

Anyone monitoring C-BS, N-BS, A-BS, Toon News Network, etc? Just wondering if the public orgasms have started yet.

[OXENinFLA]

I am done w/ this.........I don't care if he goes down like the Hindenburg, it's not worth trying to listen to his bad bad bad very bad jokes.

[RedMonqey]

It would have been funny if it was a parody of a REAL diva..... like Dabs Stresiand.


Ann is not known as a Diva...

[BigSkyFreeper]

It's not Liddy.

[Mo1]

Sounds like Liddy

[cyborg]

Sorry for the double... btw I am thinking it was him. Lord have mercy now he's talking about Hannity. Didn't he attack Sean more than ONCE?

[RedMonqey]

That's who I thought!

[Neenah]

Yep..I agree with you completely. Sad to say, I can't watch Bill O anymore. I find him very self serving, rude, one man band.

He has lost credibility with me. Last night with Karen Hughes was awful. O'Reilly was even controversial with her. Rude, but with a smile on his face. Sad.

He, if he isn't told not to, will try to humiliate Frankin..but FRankin is fueling him now and will LOOOOOVE IT !!

Now Ann Coulter? and G. GORDON !!!! OMG!! See my mouth? It is in a perminent O !!!

Come on MICHAEL SAVAGE !!

[Capt. Tom]

THIS IS MORE THAN WE COULD HAVE ASKED FOR!!!!!!! DOA.DOA!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my, this is a wonderful day!!!!

You may be right. I gave them the befit of the doubt, but there is no substance so far in the conversation with Al Franken and the women on his program. Lame jokes and ridicule are all that is being done. Now they are doing a parody on Ann Coulter, and it is not that funny. They had time to write the script and at least have it sound funny. There attack on her with the parody was so amateurish.

Seriously they must have liberal writers who can skewer the conservatives in a funny way.

Honestly, this program is off to a poor start, they laugh at their own jokes which are not that funny. I'm out of there now,even though G Gordon Liddy is a friend of Franken and is now on the show talking up the Franken show. -Tom

When in the first show they're reduced to celebrity call-ins, "great to talk with you blah, blah, blah" you know they're hurting.

I don't ever remember Rush ever stooping to this kind of thing.

[Patrick1]

It was Liddy, he and Franken are DC buddies.

[cyborg]

LOL!!! That call screener sounded like she's about to have a nervous breakdown. I wonder how many times she got that line.

[cyborg]

I thought so. The flow of conversation was different.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Liddy will show up anywhere, anytime as long as it gets him on the air. At least he's consistent.

[freeperfromnj]

Doesn't anyone find it offensive and out of line that Bob Kerrey is appearing on this show? The Commission calls itself bi-partisan and non-political and yet you have a panel member appearing on a show that is clearly organized and run by Bush-hating gutter rats

[governsleastgovernsbest]

GMTA - see #274

[KOZ.]

you seriously called? what happened?

[cyborg]

hehehe that's coming when Michael Moore will be on SHEESH

[Dianna]

Has there been a topic? This is so lame

Oh a Rummy lie! Saying Rummy DID say Iraq was an immediate threat.

Oh please! This is a lame "lie" The clip went on too long too.

Oh a Hannity lie now...

[cyborg]

The girl was nice but sounded stressed so I told her Franken sucks and sounds like a newbie. Tell him to be more organized and then I said good bye :-) I waited almost two hours to talk to Rush once. it was well worth it too. I would not wait for Frankenfurter.
