Why does Al keep Dittohead?
And why does he play the Rush tapes over and over?

2. Al plays too many of "their" clips altogether
He's giving them airtime - big mistake!

3. This gitmo bit is killing me
"Don't you think there are people out there who want to kill us for no other reason than being American?"

Well, maybe you ignorant piece of shit.... but now that we torture innocents, rape kids, and defile their religion, they have PLENTY of reasons!

5. Apparently torture is ok with dittoheads as long as it's kept secret
That's what I got from that exchange. Al's "friend" is a piece of shit, and if it were me he wouldn't be my friend.

4. same reason he has G Gordan Liddy on.
if I wanted to hear the RW talking points from someone that deeply believes them, I'd listen to them on the radio. I don't want to keep hearing it on Air America.

7. Franken has a whole routine about calling out liars (i.e. his book title)
so he needs to have the lying liars telling their lies on the air.

6. Because he can. I would like to see Rush try the reverse.
Truth is on Franken's side. The dittohead guy invariably ends up saying some variation of "Rush got that one wrong." Pretty soon it becomes clear that every time Rush gets one "wrong," he proves to have "erred" on the side of harming Democrats.

One thing I wish Franken would do is that whenever the dittohead says "Rush got that one wrong" Franken should send a request to Rush asking for a retraction or correction. If Limbaugh doesn't retract or correct things he got "wrong" then that makes him a clear cut liar (as if it weren't already obvious enough).

Now where is Limbaugh's non-dittohead?

8. Its just annoying to me when I am hearing the same Rush clip
for the third or fourth time.

Limbaugh is too much of a weasel to talk to anyone who disagrees with him on air.

9. because they had a poll on his site about it
and the majority wanted to keep him.

10. Dittohead does us service sometimes. Like today "They hate us
and want to kill us because we are American." was so purely PARANOID and IRRATIONAL. They hate us because we start UN-NECESSARY WARS for our own domestic political uses.

11. Al agreed with the Right Wing Talking Point!
The right keeps saying things like, "Are you actually comparing our government with Hilter's?" or "Are you actually comparing our government with Saddam's brutality?" As more facts are being uncovered, the more corrupt and horrendous our government's sins are being realized. Can we honestly answer these questions when Bush has bent over backwards to hide the truth? The refusal to investigate or hold anyone responsible should raise everyone's suspicions on how bad it really is. Am I the only one who heard rumors that we have killed hundreds of MILLIONS of innocent Iraqis? Many believe Bush will prove to be worse than any other dictator in history, but following the right current spin, we'll never be able to speak about it no matter how bad it gets unless we rebutt it now. But our reasonable voice from the left, Al Franken, agrees with Ditto Head that this was a horrible and dangerous choice of words and "those aren't the words I would have used"! Good God, actions do speak louder than words, Al!

13. A foil, a straight man.
It illustrates how obstinate are the true believers.
