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.

lol i bet you are right....hope the RATS pour tons of money into this disaster!

[eureka!]

flag for later laughs....

[Socratic]

"Franken trying to sound serious..."

He sounds like Orson Welles on the Mercury Theater on the Air. Just another Martian invasion.

[threat matrix]

Even Rush may have taken the day off to laugh at this clown!

[Ben Bolt]

And dont forget the update about all of us fighting over a root ;)

Damn , this dude is bad ....

[faithincowboys]

We shouldn't call unless we're wiling to go middle ages on him. No nice, "Oh, you have a point Al" bs. We need to call him up and blow him out of the water.

Damn , this dude is bad ....

[Turk82_1]

What is it with the sound quality? Listening to 620. Well, I guess they are paying top pesos for this transmitter

[KOZ.]

his laughs are annoying.

i might have to turn it off just for that.

[I still care]

Well, that's his shtick. I remember a skit on SNL where he came out as a cancer victim. It was totally poor taste.

[Neenah]

hey everybody.....franken is angry and we're all goin down.

< GET DOWN !!!!

[TomGuy]

Other than his uncreative Zero Spin Zone, so far, he's following the talkingpointsmemo.

Bush has lost more jobs than Hoover, yada yada yada

Bush caused all the libs not to patriotic any more. [snicker]

Bush high jacked 9-11

Bush can't be trusted.

yada yada yada

[OXENinFLA]

Will there be callers?

[Porterville]

This is hilarious, he needs one bump and he'll crack. Rush and Hannity have been doing it for yearsssss... this guy is clearly nervous...

[cyborg]

The morning was full of old hippie music which was half way decent. BUT Al Franken is a SNORE and does not have the flow of Rush and some other good radio personalities.

[amordei]

Well, at least, we know they are not trying to entertain us, just bore us to death.

[threat matrix]

Franken Fraud just played Jerry Garcia and took a shot at Rush..

[KOZ.]

i'm actually thinking this is funny.
its sooo bad!!

[CharlieOK1]

I was hoping there would be a thread calling for a mass freepin'! I was thinking of some great calls we could put in...

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

Rodger Hedgecock sitting in for Rush. Still beter than Franken. Of course a poke in the eye with a shrrp stick is better than listening to Franken.

I was fair Al, I listened as long as I could stand it. Goodbye. BTW, you are correct, parody is protected speech. Shameless ripoffs to make money aren't, and that's what you have there.
