Guy James/JanMichael/ Liberal Talk Radio and DU |
|
OK here it is.
Guy James has been promoting DU on both the radio, and the internet for what? Over a year??
The man has not only given his best, he has PAID for it himself.
Corporate sponsers are NOT paying for Liberal talk radio...there is NO other way to get the message out other than websites like DU, and radio shows like his.
I don't give a damn what the reasons are...actually I do...but, it's not important tonight. If you want to argue about bleah, bleah, bleah...if you want to get on this thread and tell me what a marketing genius you are...then we need to get this straight right now:
I don't give a rat's ass. Don't waste your time with me. I promise you that I am not the person you want to attempt to have a conversation with about not supporting Guy and Michael.
Tomorrow is JanMichael's last day on the Guy James Show. For months, the man has driven over 150 miles every Saturday to attempt to help Guy get the message out to the apparently stupid Republicans in both FL, and all over the internet...because for some reason they can't add 2 and 2 and come up with 4.
He did this with no compensation. None.
If you listen to the Guy James Show and enjoy it, then you need to send them at least $5 a month.
If you don't listen to the Guy James Show while you are sitting at your computer arguing with whoever on DU about your candidate, then you need to click on the link and listen.
Call in and tell Michael that he is fabulous. Then click on the "Donation" link and keep this show on the air. 350 people donating 10 bucks a month would help. Or 5. Or 1.
If you complain about Rush and his ridiculous crap, and don't support Liberal talk radio...I hope you are comfortable looking in the mirror at a hypocrite.

but more is needed. People who have never donated need to participate! I don't know if I'll be home in time for the show tomorrow or not. I hope so, and I hope plenty of people send in their support.

3. Hope you will be there in time! |

It will be personally depressing for me (and it's all about me, right?) if Guy has to leave his show.

I was "laid off" in this damned Bush economy too. I don't feel like I can donate again until March...it is so freaking frustrating....

That's how I see it.
Don't do this through charity.
Don't do this through guilt.
Do this because YOU will benefit by it!
(Well, OK, if Guilt turns you on, go ahead.)

Plus I am still in the dark ages. Dial-up link, and one phone line. I am afraid I am going to miss something. I just got done sending Guy an email of encouragement though. :)

26. ummmmmmm I don't even have speakers on my computer |
|
OK, a "secret."
JanMichael is my husband. I only hear the show when I am sitting there with him while he is doing the show with Guy.
OK, is that embarassing or what?
I probably shouldn't have mentioned that.
(dial up..one phone line...luddite here)

34. We need to get you some speakers!!! |
|
Seriously! Or an MP3 player.
Dial-up is plenty for listening to most streams. And if it isn't, you can download the streams from White Rose and listen to them after they have downloaded!
Lots of truckers load their iPods up from White Rose before hitting the road and listen to the shows far away from their computers!

I'm in for another $10. (But then I'm tapped out, as I have to cover White Rose's DSL bill.)

Thank you so much!

24. Try the link on White Rose |

I put a link on White Rose under Guy's header. I just used it and it works... That's http://www.WhiteRoseSociety.org/Careful not to use MY paypal links. Guy's is the one with the Visa/MC symbols on it under his header and above his show links.
