Have you ever talked to a friend who listens to Rush or Coulter?
 Advertisements [?]Have you ever told a friend what you think of folks who listen to the crap issued by Rush, Coulter, and their type? I have. A long time friend of mine (Chemical Engineer, Masters degree from Penn State) used to Rush listen daily, saying he thought it was funny. It used to irk the hell out of me to walk into his office and hear that crap on his radio.

So one day I said something. This is from memory so its not an exact quote, but what I said to him was "Steve, that shit will rot your mind, you gotta quit listening to it." He laughed just like the other times I had told him the same thing. Then I went farther, saying "Look Steve, I'm not kidding. You say you think that shit is funny but its not, not at all. That shit is childish and dangerous, it incites hatred and promotes ignorance. Every time I see you listening to that shit I think a little less of you, I wonder if your judgment is still sound, and I have to tell you, I'm not the only one. So I'm just tellin' you old son, you gotta drop that shit and drop it right now."

It must have sunk in because he quit listening to mind-killing shit, well sort of. He changed stations to another one that played country music all day long, I did what I could but you can't fix everything.

This from an Air America listener?
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

He changed stations because even though you just shit on his head he still respected having a friend more then politics.

That pretty much describes the mountain man primitive, the ThomWVA primitive.

I always get a laugh from those who don't (and won't) listen to Rush. They invariably make gross assumptions, hate speach (:P), childish, blah, blah, blah..... when the fact of the matter is that Rush is correct. However, Liberals cannot stand the light of truth, and their reactions are proof of this.

THomWV, your "buddy" is laughing behind your back. You are an idiot.

Oh, BTW, if you called me "son", I'd kick your ass.

Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

This primitive has made statements in the past that conservative radio personalities should be put in prison for "spreading lies," so this type of post from him, true or not, is not surprising.

Yes, another fanciful story from a Universe that does not exist. Why do they do this sort of thing?

You must remember one thing about the DUmmies. They're not happy unless they're pissed or indignant about something. Being a helpless, angry victim of something is what makes them what they are. THAT'S why Err America didn't work out. Sure, the DUmmies would agree with what was being said there, but it wouldn't make them angry or offended (happiness, in their way of thinking), so they tune into Rush, Hannity, Coulter, Ingraham, or Beck to get their daily fix of victimhood and manufactured outrage.

I'm guessing what really happened when ThomWV complained for the umpteenth time, Steve told him if he didn't like it he could just stay the **** out of his office from 9 to noon.

I sure wish these dipshits would explain all the "lies" Rush and other conservative talk show host's spew. Rush is pretty proud of his 99.7% truth rating. Where in the hell do these ignorant assholes get that they forward lies???????????
