Anyone who has been following the news would, of course, realize that the
Dems have been having a wet dream over the prospect of being able to shut
down talk radio, which for some reason doesn't seem to favor their views.

Since liberal talk radio has been a complete non-starter, the Dems'
calculation is that if they can re-impose the "fairness doctrine" on all
media, radio will have to carry enough money-losing shows having a
liberal
agenda so that they will decide to drop talk shows entirely, leaving
standing only their MSM friends.

This is even more of a side-track from the list's charter....

It's so amazing that not one liberal talk show has grown legs like the
conservative ones. I hear a few on NPR, but they are so unentertaining, so
serious, so full of themselves.

Perhaps because true liberals aren't really interested in destruction
politics.


Rush at least is entertaining, good enough that his opponents may form a
significant portion of his audience, and his show survives quite nicely
without relying on tax-free donations and government hand-outs.

Don't know about his audience. I do know from my small amount of listening
is that he's a racist assh*le, with very little actual knowledge.

If he were only *against* something (which seems the Liberals' primary
thrust), his show would have died when a Republican congress was elected,
when Bush 1 was elected, when he went into rehab, when ... many things
happened. He's still the liberals' nightmare.

No. He's disgusting. Anyone who listens to him regularly, who swallows his
garbage can't really claim to be thinking.

I don't even agree with him much of the time, but I have to point out
those things.

Do tell. Even a maniac can say "right" things from time to time.

Liberals, for some reason, don't seem to consider that others' opinions
could possibly be correct.

?? An opinion is an opinion. Take it or leave it. I certainly don't speak
for all liberals, but the line for me is when there's hate-mongering and
lying.
