They do exist. Yeah, maybe someone more liberal so people like you will listen. NOT!!!!! This has nothing to do with ideology. Especially when they are moving Levin and Savage in to fill the broadcasting gaps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NorrinRadd 0 #3 July 30, 2013 I am not so sure I qualify as a liberal. I know that is a confounding thing to hear... but I am more of a centrist. I am liberal in some things, conservative in others. But I wont bore you with all the details. Let me just say that while I believe in less government (or corporate) control, I DO believe in greater personal accountability, and the fact that as members of a community, we are obligated to look out for one another. Take that as you will. That said.. you are right. They likely wont find a less radical persona. It is a shame. It would be nice if the media could become less polarizing.Why drive myself crazy trying to be normal, when I am already at crazy? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gravitymaster 0 #4 July 30, 2013 I didn't say you were a liberal. Frankly, I'm not sure if you are a sock puppet or not at this point. Anyway, your thread title is misleading. A better title would be "Limbaugh and Hannity drop Cumulus over Contract Dispute". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aphid 0 #7 July 30, 2013 I choose to not think so. But, as usual, I could be sadly mistaken. BTW, before anybody else gets their panties in a knot, it was tongue-in-cheek sarcasm directed towards the gent from Ontario. A form of humour that Canadians are peculiarly known for.

billvon 2,471 #16 July 30, 2013 >I am not so sure I qualify as a liberal. You do here. The average post on here is pretty hard-right so overall your posts will be considered liberal. >That said.. you are right. They likely wont find a less radical persona. I think they probably will. There are a lot of good commentators out there. That being said, Limbaugh isn't going away any time soon. There is a market for people like him; indeed, the more extreme, the better. He could openly advocate for the assassination of Obama and a large percentage of his fan base would say "hell yeah!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CanuckInUSA 0 #18 July 30, 2013 Was I dreaming, or did Progressive movie makers actually make a movie about GWB being assassinated in 2006 and throngs of Progressives flocked to the theaters and paid money to watch this so called entertainment and none of them thought that this would be perceived as radical. I must have been dreaming because no Progressive would ever make a movie about a current president being assassinated and consider this entertainment. The arrogance of the Progressives never ceases to amaze me. Try not to worry about the things you have no control over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I must have been dreaming because no Progressive would ever make a movie about a current president being assassinated and consider this entertainment. The arrogance of the Progressives never ceases to amaze me. I had forgotten about that Then remember when Abby Giffords got shot and the target issue (On Sarah Palin's website I think) that these progressives used to try and raise a stink? and then it turns out that Bob Beckel said he was the first one to use targets on a map for political purposes? And HE said that on the Fox show he is on daily.
