10. Yes ... and now Snapple is the dittohead version of Kool-Aid (which was actually Flavor-Aid).
Let's keep those sweet drinks straight.

16. "Sweet"? That stuff is awful. Really sour.
Every "flavor" tastes the same. I always thought it was funny that a turd like him promoted that junk.

8. I used to listen to the Hillbilly Heroin Addict in the early nineties...
...before he became so obnoxious that I had to quit (which didn't take too long). One of his really big sponsors, at least back then, if not now, was Snapple. I don't buy Snapple anymore, either.

4. I'm so jealous! I still miss Plante.
He left the Chattanooga Times/Free Press for Tulsa. I see that he's still funny.

5. Another cartoon
Wherein the elephants look slimmer than Mr.Limbaugh. I've heard it's not funny or nice to notice his girth, and I hope these cartoonists are properly taken to task: Make the elephants fatter!

9. I wonder if anyone who takes the thought of him seriously can consider this thought:
HE WILL ACTUALLY HAVE TO DEBATE. HE CANNOT DEBATE. EVERYTIME HE DEBATES HE IS SLAUGHTERED.

14. When has he ever debated someone he disagrees with?
I can't think of a single instance. He has always existed completely within his own bubble.

19. When he had his short lived TV show he was invaded by "Libruls"
It was pretty fucking pathetic. He couldn't turn them off. He had to have them escorted from his show. I don't know whether it was live or not...but it leaked.

18. The only debating I've heard out of him was, I'm turning your mike off
I ain't listening to this shit, click and they are gone and he continues to kick them about anyway. He is a horridly putrid excuse of a human being, a total waste of space, yep he and junior are in the same fucking league.

15. One of Plante's best - here are the comments thus far (link)
Link to comments page:
http://www.tulsaworld.com/opinion/article.aspx?subjectid=63&articleid=20090304_63_A18_Plante473716
I'd say the comments are 75% positive reaction - I am happily surprised!
