Yes, the era of brotherly love and tolerance espoused by Rush Limbaugh, Ann
Coulter, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, etc, etc, etc, etc, will be considered
by historians a golden moment in the growth of the human mind and spirit.
Wake up. Your conservative talk radio industry is making billions of dollars a
year
in an attempt to bring about a "dark age"
Compared to all the failed attempts at liberal radio, which can't seem
to find more than a half dozen or so listeners?
of inquisition in America. Tens of millions of increasingly angry and alienated
people are hanging on their every greasy word.
Do you ever wonder why those people are angry Chuck? Those people are
sick and tired of what liberals and the so-called "enlightened" people
are doing to this country. Starting with the whole "politically
correct" movement, all the way through entitlement programs for the
undeserving, the relentless demonization of the rich and successful,
and the support of programs which promote one person's superficial
attributes over another's, along with government expanding its role to
intervene in more and more aspects of people's lives and lifestyles,
while taking more and more money out of our pockets.
Talk-radio is an outlet for people to vent those frustrations. You
guys on the left should take heed. Your ideologies are not popular
with the majority of Americans.
We liberals are not saints, either, but the right wingers either have no clue
what restraint, class and decency consist of or no justification to claim those
principles and standards as a core value of neo-conservatism.
I can't comment on some of the others, but I do listen to Hannity
regularly. I have NEVER EVER heard him make an ad-hominem attack
against anyone. He DOES attack the issues, and will cut liberals to
shreds for their double standards and disingenuous positions. He says
with quite regularity that liberals are not bad people, they're just
misguided. That's about as close to an ad-hominem attack as he gets.
Compare that to several obvious liberal columnists who made comments
about Reagan such as "he should be turning a shade of dark brown right
about now" , and other baseless, groundless and purely ad-hominem and
mean spirited comments.
