She's getting very worked up about this idiot caller.

1. As Michael Feldman on Whad'Ya know? says,
"Get your own show."

I love hearing douchebag and dickhead used against those douchebags and dickheads.

3. It may not bother you or I, but it will bother some who are with us
Frankly, she screws up quite frequently on the facts

She should take a lesson from her co-host

insulting listeners that are NOT necessarily against you is NOT a smart thing to do

11. doesn't bother me
all I know is that she probably isn't helping our cause, but alienating people

Look at Seder or Randi Rhodes. They are actually getting people to go from the dark side to our side

13. Lot's of people here don't like Franken
because he's not harsh enough, and has his dittohead friend on.
I like Franken's books and his humor, so I listen when I can.
My daughter wants to move back to Minnesota so she can vote for him.

16. Your right, Frontline is one of the last areas in this country
where investigative journalism still occurs

8. What is it with "our" people using the word "douchebag"?
First Jon Stewart, now Janeane.


Either way, I love it. :D

5. The caller was upset because she referred to scientology as a cult
frankly I agree with her on this, but by trashing a person who is NOT necessarily against us is counterproductive

The market place will determine what will happen

4. I Like It
She made the guy look pathetic. Asshole was looking for confrontation and got his ass handed to him. Humility is quit therapeutic for his kind... hopefully.

9. I agree.
In his 1st presidential campaign, Pres. Clinton says you have to hit 'em back twice as hard as they hit you.

I think somewhere along the way, this was forgotten.

10. It is the ONLY way to deal with bullies and thugs
That is the thing I like best about the Big Dawg. He understands you don't use fencing etiquette in a bar-room brawl.

12. the caller wasn't a bully, he was a scientologist
and frankly they both backed down a little bit if you heard the rest of the show, after reading some of the blog

17. Suggestion: Pair her with Lizz Winstead for good comic relief?
Bring BACK Lizz?!?
