Where radio conservatives have thrived by drawing hard distinctions between right and wrong, he said, "the liberal tradition as we understand it acknowledges a diversity of people and values." In the heat of drive-time squawk, he said, "That's easily thrown back in their face by making them look mealy-mouthed."

Contrarywise, NO ONE has to MAKE liberals look mealy-mouthed. It's a natural state.

In the heat of drive-time squawk, he said, "That's easily thrown back in their face by making them look mealy-mouthed."

And mealy-mouthed translates into dishonest among ordinary people. Why? Because ordinary people understand that vague language is misleading. Paraphrasing Orwell, the need for euphemism in political discourse belies the desire to subvert the truth.

Liberals are masters of euphemism, and one gets the distinct impression that they lack the desire to make themselves clear because their motives are not what they say they are.

I have been on the receiving end of liberal tolerance for years. To date I have been called: right-winger, red neck, Fundamentalist, John Bircher (not a member), Right to Lifer (not a member), and a moral crusader, to name a few. That is what I have heard directly. One minister gave a sermon where he glared at me and said that I was putting lesbians in Hell. Later I said that was really up to God and not me. That made him furious.

I think most Americans are fairly conservative, even after years of Left-wing propaganda. The trouble with radio is that it is all talk, so it is revelatory of the speaker. Al Colmes had a radio show. Why didn't he keep at it? Now he is on TV with Hannity, but Hannity is clearly the winner in terms of charm, humor, and ideas.
