Rush's drug induced haze and brain dead listenership create a synergy heretofore unknown, IMO.

Well according to ProJo OC Limbaugh's audience is made up by a bunch of smart fellers.

Why do you feel the need to bring me into your little argument?
And why do you attack the thread I created about what Tom Wolfe said as "Another thread that's much ado about nothing from ProJo!" ??

Is there a reason that you are so obsessed with me that you must attack everything I say? And why aren't you attacking a thread about guy heard on 86 radio stations nationwide as being much ado about nothing?
It is getting a little old, find something else to rant about besides me and my opinions.

Well if you'd stop beating us over the head with your numerous posts/threads about your cockeyed opinions we wouldn't be commenting on them.

Nicely said, but I don't see you complaining about "cockeyed" threads by I.C.M. or Dave etc etc. Is it only cockeyed when someone on the right creates a thread?

BTW: Isn't attacking somebody for what they say or the right to say it an attack on free speech? Every thing I post comes from mainstream rightwing magazines and newspapers, I am not some lunatic out on the fringes here, as much as some of you might like to thing. When I start posting links to "conspiracyplanet" or other crazy web sites then feel free to go after me, until then you just seem to be upset with the fact that I have these opinions and am willing to express them in this forum.

If you don't want to hear what the right says or thinks go over to moveon.org or dailykos and post there where no one will challenge you with ideas from the right.

Ps. Sooner or later some MOD is going to try and ban me for disagreeing with 70% of the people on here.

No it's exercising free speech.

Upset? No I'm not upset just like I'm not upset when McGowen posts his nutty BS. Of course if I were a liberal and a Democrat I might be upset because in doing so he gives the loons on the Right an opportunity to use him as an example of their views and party.

If you don't want to hear what the right says or thinks go over to moveon.org or dailykos and post there where no one will challenge you with ideas from the right.

Yeah right go from one extreme to another.

You sound like you've experienced this before.

Don, if you focus on just the NEWS sections of Fox News then you will see that they are not nearly as bad as everyone on here makes them out to be. Watch the Britt Hume show of the 7pm news casts or the little 2-3 minute updates at the start of each hour. Those "news" parts of the network are not overly biased, there are some studies that say that Fox?s "news" broadcasts are the least biased ones on TV.

Where Fox IS biased is in its nightly commentary shows. O'Reilly is to the right, Hannity and Colmes is I think a little more right than other shows like it "crossfire", but Gretta is actually a Democrat, but I don't care for her show so I don't watch(and it?s not because she is a Democrat, but because of the topics and the 4 people discussion groups she leads become a mess.)

MSNBC is the home to Olbermann, by that right alone all of us on the right should be attacking everything they post and say as biased right? But we don't, because we can see the difference between "commentary" and "news"

:thumbsup: well said. Sadly, libs won't understand this. They lump The Daily Show, Countdown, and The O'Reilly factor in one big pot and label them as "news shows" when they are clearly not news shows to anyone with a shred of common sense.

I still have yet to see a specific instance of an actual NEWS show on fox handing out purposefully misleading information that is spoken by someone reporting the news.

Libs - just because the "Fox News Channel" Logo is on a program on FNC, does not mean the show is a news show. You're too busy parroting videos you saw on youtube or screenshots you copied from left wing blogs to realize this.

You missed one of his questions. I.C.M. and Dave are about as extreme as it comes, yet you hardly ever see anyone besides the conservatives on this board complaining about them.

Well, maybe you didn't see it, but they recently made the illustrious Foley a Democrat; or, maybe you just see what you want to see.

Or maybe you just blow things way out of proportion.

That's because "Liberals" are smart enough to avoid them. I suspect other new members will soon join the list.

Thanks for the Youtube link.

All those stuck on the "Al Franken" part of it should get over it. Listen to the Audio link, it actually has an interesting idea on what to do in Iraq and is not an insane ranting against Bush(certainly negative towards him, but if you're expecting insane rambling you'll be disappointed).

 

[Aisengard]

Wait a minute! Nope! Can't be. Democrats don't have any ideas. Therefore, either the person saying this isn't a Democrat, or it isn't an idea. Take your pick.

Of course, if both conclusions turn out to be wrong, then the premise is flawed.......uh ohhhh!

Red Dawn never said anything about stopping your right to say what you want, just that he doesn't agree with your opinions. What he is doing is anything but attacking free speech.

you mean broadcasting to millions of idiots that vote that some immoral jackass, who is actually a republican, is a democrat isn't worth mentioning? I don't think so.

I don't know why the Extremist Right Wingers complain about Dave, he's very useful to them when they want to point out out how looney the Libs (and anybody who doesn't march lockstep with them) are. If anything the Liberals should be pissed at him for making them look like idiots and giving the Right Wing Extrtemists so much ammo.!

I don't associate Dave with the rest of the liberals. He's even more extreme than the vast majority. And he oscillates in the wind. Soon he will begin his 2008 Presidential bid. :laugh:
