      Well, as long as it's good radio, I guess that makes it okay.

          You're taking him out of context. By "good radio for conservatives" he means "appealing to the republican base".

            Agreed. I just hope that Matthews, Maddow, etc, pillory Limabaugh, Malkin, Hannity, Levin and the rest of the cabal. Somebody, and heaven knows, it won't be any Republican, needs to stand up and call these people out.

            I would wager that most Americans are sickened by right wing radio.

            It means division and hate, and that is exactly what we're getting from the Republican Party and those who support them.

        Although I do remember Matthews saying that it was "fun" to talk about the Terri Schiavo thing.

      Although I'm not usually prone to violence I am preparing to kill my radio...high powered rifle, chain saw, second hand smoke, the method doesn't matter. I can no longer tolerate the thought that Rush Limbaugh lives inside it. It is corrupted... ;>)

      We can do more than petition. PEOPLE, STOP SUPPORTING RACISTS, BIRTHERS! We can stop the Lou Dobbs, Glenn Becks, Sean Hannitys, and Rush Limbaughs of the World. It only takes 5 minutes. Its called, HIT EM IN HE POCKET, AND PUT YOUR $ WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS.

      (1) Find out who the sponsors are of these shows. (In the case of Glenn Beck, GM, Nestle, Kraft, and Sprint to name a few.) Just go on their websites and look!)

      (2)"HIT EM' IN THE POCKET!" Go to the sponsors websites and send them a message via their contact forms, RE: SUBJECT: "I WILL NO LONGER SPONSOR RACISM!" TELL THEM, I WILL NO LONGER BUY YOUR PRODUCTS BECAUSE YOU SPONSOR LOU DOBBS, GLENN BECK, RUSH LIMBAUGH, ETC.

      (3) THEN, TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES TO DO THE SAME. YOU CAN CUT AND PASTE THE TEXT FROM HERE!

      (4) Then, PUT YOUR $ WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS. DO NOT BUY THESE COMPANIES PRODUCTS ANYMORE, UNTIL THEY STOP SPONSORING THESE LUNATICS. That will teach CNN, Fox News, and others, for putting these lunatics on the air. You may miss your Nestles crunch bar for a while, but they will get the idea. WE CAN DO THIS PEOPLE!
