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.

Wrong kerry. I'm embarrased.

[TankerKC]

Kerry/Kerrey '04. Yeah, right.

Sounds the same as NPR to me.

[VRWC_minion]

I think Rush can stop worrying.

[Maine For Bush]

Actually, AirAmerica is receiving LOADS of cash from overseas. Since the Dems can't take the cash, on Move On claims they won't touch it (yeah, right!) most of the money goes to AirAmerica. My prediction: as bad as this is, it will continue on and on with support from Eurotrash trying to subvert our society.

[MrB]

She looks hot

And I thought I was the only one who thought so...
unless you're just kidding, then... haha... yeah, that's funny.

[Mo1]

Kerrey is finished being interviewed

I'll give Kerrey credit that he didn't jump on the band wagon with Al to bash President Bush ..

but he also didn't seems as concerned about what happen during the Clinton Administration as he is during the Bush Administration

[Peter J. Huss]

I saw him live in Orlando (Disney) at the 2001 Lotusphere.

It was an IBM/Lotus Notes convention at the peak of the .com craze. 10,000 person convention.

He shows up and did not know his audience. Techies are generally conservative. He started out slamming Bush. People didn't laugh, he then did some really nasty Bush comments and people started booing. He then raised his hand and said, "I know, I know.... I should have learned my lesson and stayed away from politics. A few years back I did a fund raiser for Pol Pot, then I saw the Killing Fields and (pause) I just felt like an ass."

After that he had us. He relaxed. His comments were free form and very funny.

[TankerKC]

No, I think she is hot too. Maybe “hot” is too strong...how 'bout “strangely sexy”.

[auggy]

"Neal Boortz says he wants to see them succeed. He says it is the only way that they won't totally try to shut down free speech via radio in america."

He's got that right.

I hope they suckseed, because it will definitely inform people what they really are. Alan Colmes helped the Republicans, almost as much as, Rush, when he had his radio show.

[BigSkyFreeper]

If/when Rush is carried on XM, I'll buy an XM satellite radio. I can't get Rush locally, but I get Rush's show online.

[sirshackleton]

"OK let's welcome our next guest..Charles D, of the musical group Public Enemy! What is up, my man?"

[Badeye]

Hmmm. You see it as "sprouting of liberal hate"...I see it as the inevitable "bloom" of liberal hate that has been growing ever since the end of WWII, when some of our grandparents realized Uncle Joe Stalin was a monster, dared to state Alger Hiss was a spy, and that the Truman administration oversaw the takeover of the State Department by communist sympathizers.

We both see the "weed" we just disagree if its newly planted, or just giving off its final bloom before dying off naturally.

[sonofatpatcher2]

Gad! A 'Love Train" to sign up new voters?

This is sooo lame, so boring!

Chuck-D, Hip-Hop guest saying, "Voting is as important as washing your hinney every morning."

Gad! Do the Libs soil their shorts every morning before they get out of bed?

[AMDG]

Rush is not on XM because he does not want to compete with himself in the 9 billion markets he is in.

If he were on XM he would devalue the relationship he has with his affiliates since there would be on two different outlets in the same market at the same time.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Yeah, I seen Chuck D on O'Reilly some months ago, doing some thing called Rap The Vote or some spiel like that.

[Socratic]

'ow 'bout “strangely sexy”.'

How about easy-sleazy?

[retrokitten]

Gad! Do the Libs soil their shorts every morning before they get out of bed?

LMAO!!! It wouldn't suprise me if they did.

[BigSkyFreeper]

True.

[orson_of_talkspot]

chuck d: "you can't talk about stoopid things like that!"

take your own advice, chucky baby.

this is beyond parody. simply the most awful radio i've ever heard (and i'm a veteran pacifica listener.)

the co-host actually *cackles*.

[CaptSkip]

Did the "fake Ann C.'s" (Bebe) "G** Dammit" that I heard on the stream get bleeped for broadcast?
