These programs and hosts, conservative and liberal, are entertainment programs hosted by actors. No really important idea will ever see the light of day on these shows. They are sponsored by corporations, and truth is very inimical to consumerism. These programs are there bo bleed off nervous energy and keep you shopping, making you feel like you're informed and represented.

That's exactly how I feel.

Hannity and O'Reilly for the most part are mindlessly Republican to the point that it is sickening. Colmes is just an idiot, but hey I guess he can't help it. Never really listened to Lambchop, don't care to either.

Neal Boortz is easily my favorite. One of the few people to relentlessly attack both parties, as we all should do.

Oh, and Hannity in particular needs to realize that Clinton is no longer our president. His ranting about him will only hurt anything he stands for. Maybe Hannity should be asking himself why Bush is such a big spender.

Hannity has been very critical of bush over many issues when it comes to big spending. Rush has as well just not as much😉
Hattiny does point out that many of the problem we face today we face because Clinton dropped the ball. He does point out what should have been done. Hannity is a conservative to the bone.
Orielly is an angry white male. He plays the blame game to the worst level.

 
Hannity is a moron on the show he shares with Colmes. He's much better suited to his radio show where he doesn't have to be quite as quick......

Walter Williams, whom I had always enjoyed reading his syndicated columns, is a throwback to the 19th century. If I were his wife, I'd take half of what he's got and split yesterday.

I used to enjoy O'Reilly, but like Jim Rome, he's a flippin broken record.....2 months of get Jessie followed by 2 months of get the Catholic priests........nauseating BS. He's got the personality of an over dramatic prosecuting attorney with delusions of grandeur.

Rush.............well, I never really liked that guy. Always seemed to be afraid of entertaining dissenting opinion on his program by anyone with half a brain. I respect his conservative sensibilities, but not his program. Sure, it's entertaining, but so were public floggings 150 years ago.......


Oh yeah, I'm a conservative through and through, just so we're clear.
 
I'm a conservative, and I listen to Limbaugh every day. I think he's awesome. OTOH, I think Hannity is an airhead moron who parrots Rush's show everyday in the hope of one day being like him.

You are dead on brother!

 
When I feel like hearing liberal hate speech, I listen to Hannity's show.

I Listen to 4 radio shows

1. Bill O'Reilly
2. Rush Limbaugh
3. Sean Hannity
4. Walton and Johnson (non-political...if anything, politically incorrect)
 
I try not to spend much time listening to biases one-sided "news". It seems way to many people listen to this crap to get their daily dose of opinions. If you spend large chunks of time listening to close-minded blowhards like Limbaugh and reading Right Wing News then how are you to possibly think for yourself?

Well judging from the many of the posts by the UC's here at ATOT they don't.
