Right-Wing Radio

[Kath1]

Although I am an NPR/Amy Goodman/music type of person, I will occasionally tune in to the local talk station to see what they are saying. They have all the "experts" - Limbaugh, Hannity, Mark Levin and others. It is horrible. It is nothing but bash and trash Obama 24/7. The distortions, half-truths and out-and-out lies they spew are unbelievable. They are even still hung up on this ridiculous "birth certificate" non-issue. They can't give this President any credit for anything! The hosts are full of hate but most of the callers are even worse! It smacks of the worst kind of racism and hate one could imagine. I find it hard to believe there is a market out there for this crap. It is like Fox News on steroids.

There is one good thing about it. It makes me all the more committed to Obama 2012. They are losing and they know it.

Glad I have BOG to let me vent! Peace.

2. I have!

It sickens me. Hatred and bigotry in the name of God. How nice.

3. Best line ever to put it into perspective

If Obama walked on water they'd say See! He can't swim!

4. Make a simple rule. Don't listen to anyone on talk radio who didn't successfully complete college;

And especially if they are also drug addicts and unable to maintain a marriage

Limbaugh - Nope and major drug addict and unstable marriages.

According to his mother, "he flunked everything", and "he just didn't seem interested in anything except radio."[2][5]

Sean Hannity Nope

Hannity dropped out of New York University and Adelphi University to pursue his broadcasting career.[5]

Don Imus Nope and major drug addict

Glenn Beck Nope Drug Addict and two marriages

Mike Gallagher Nope

G. Gordon Liddy Yes, but he also is a convicted felon

Michael Reagan Nope and multiple marriages

5. Rush (maybe all of them) makes it up and it's debatable whether he believes himself.

He'll say whatever he needs to say in order to keep his audiences (and commercial sponsors) happy.

7. it warps minds

but it sells

8. Two types of species of humans in the USA

Those who connect with greed, hatred, Limpbaugh, Hannity etc and those who are real people. I guess hate genes are dominant?

9. Help get Rush off the radio. (inside)
