Republican idiot of the month: Mike Gallagher!
Don't cook tonight! Call Chicken-Hawk delight! Back in the 90's,
there not only a dot.come boom, there was right wing talk radio
boom. If you listen to the radio back then, you thought everybody in
America hated Clinton, despite the fact he had 71% approval rating.
Like in 1966 when every garage band in America wanted to sound like
the Rolling Stones, every right wing talk jock imitated Rush
Limbaugh. Mike Gallagher is a Limbaugh clone. A lot of talk show
hosts who were Liberals or moderates had to pretend they were rabid
conservatives or lose their jobs. Mike is a 90's left-over from that
era. His ratings were so low they dumped him on the after midnight
air shift. That is why you never heard of him unless you had insomia
from excessive usage of diet pills like Ann Coulter. In order to
keep your job behind the microphone you must create a publicity
stunt or publish a stupid book. Mike has just published a book
called: I am surrounded by idiots! He got the inspiration the title
of his book from being in a house of mirrors. The book is your
typical right wing autobiographical pig poop, you know? ACCLU is
bad, Clinton is the Anti-Christ, Hillary is a Dyke, All Liberals are
child molestors, so on, and so on. So old Mike wanted a little old
fashion publicity. He asked his miniscule audience to counter-
protest against Cindy Sheehan down in Crawford Texas. His station
would pay for the free trip! They chartered 4 buses for the big turn
out. They used only one and they couldn't even fill that bus. Only
21 people showed up and the ones who did show up were White senior
Citizens. It look one of those tours for old folks who want to see
Yosemite California. Gallagher went on the Hannity show on Fox. Poor
Hannity had to exaggerate the turn out. They played a video clip of
the..ah...counter-protest and it looked like a family home movie of
grandparents on the 4th of July waving little American flags made in
Red China. On Mikes web site, there was a photo of him dressed up
in a Marines uniform despite the fact that Mike was never 2 blocks
near a military base. Matter of fact, he has 4 kids who are old
enough to fight in the war. None of them are fighting in Iraq!
So Mike is this months Republican idiot!!!!
