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.

I was being generous.

Car Talk is more interesting than this, and I don't know squat about cars except where the dipstick goes and where the gas tank is and how much air to put in my tires.

Get a look at the tats on Garofolo...if someone knows how to post a photo...it's from today's NYT

2nd caller, brings up Ashcroft and Rice knew.....translates to they have no sane way of filtering calls.

In my last post here today I would say this.

Al Franken is not an improvisational comedian that can shine in this venue. He throws too much low level garbage between the occasional funny things he might come up with.

He can write because the material can be reviewed over and over and the klonkers are less likely to appear as in live TV and Radio.

The guy always has come off a dull to me. A (B- talent) on a good day.

Is it they won't let go over the Floriduh fiasco, or is it they are using that and anything else they can think of to avoid discussing what Kerry stands for, what he believes in?

Everything thats come from the Kerry Campaign for the last three weeks seems to be designed to stop any discussion of what he supports, what votes he's cast.

Bottom line is if "Any But Bush" was a valid campaign strategy, Howard Dean would be the nominee.

She sounds like she looks. Dump her.

[A CA Guy]

Think you've already heard 5 revamps during the first hour.
LOL

"The O'Franken Factor"

This is just another example in a long list of how
absolutely pathetic
Stewart Al Franken Smalley actually is.

Nothing he has done politically has ever involved showing how good HIS opinion is - he stands on the shoulders of giants at every turn.

Rush didn't get on them for throwing in PSAs, it was the subject matter of some PSAs that got us going. It was like they were advertising against his show.

[freeperfromnj]

Thanks for the email address. I just fired off a scathing letter to them.

[VRWC_minion]

She looks hot, sans the tatoos.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Florida sprouted the Liberal seeds of hate, IMHO. That noxious weed has been given time to grow, and it's just now blooming.

[DayTripper]

..real classy.

[A CA Guy]

What does the tattoo say, dwarf?

[Mo1]

Kerrey is saying that he has not actually seen the daily briefing from 98 to 2001

[cspackler]

Oh, sorry... you said "tats". Had me worried for a minute there.

[VRWC_minion]

I can't wait to watch the debates. Kerry makes Lieberman sound like he is alive.

[JoeGar]

I see where Franken is on XM Satellite Radio. I don't understand why Rush is not on XM. Hannity is on there from 3pm to 6pm EST.

[No.6]

Fabulous! I wish more folks boycotted it. Can't you just join the competitor (Sirius?) - do they have it as one of their channels?

Sirius has "SIRIUS Right" and "SIRIUS Left" among other topical channels. Their listing has a whole channel for homosexuals but also a Catholic channel and an evangelical channel.
