Said the Gov. of La. tried to call Shrub, but he couldn't take her calls, he was too busy eating cake with McCain!

He's said way to many more things I can't remember them all!

3. He's been great!
Does he always get so many freeper calls? Our Seattle AAR station just started broadcasting him live instead of Al Franken. I listened to Thom on-line sometimes, but it was very frustrating because the connection would get broken about every 20 minutes or so, so I often didn't even bother. This week, since he's been on the radio live, I've been listening, and man, the freeps are calling calling calling! He's doing a great job refuting what they are saying, but I do wonder if he always gets this many calls from them, or is it because of Katrina, etc.?

4. Thom is carried on some non-progressive talk stations
Some of his affiliates are more mainstream talk stations, so he may pull in more wingnuts than his AAR counterparts, who don't get as many RWers listening.

That's my theory anyways.

5. That's part of it. All Liberal hosts get lots of calls from Freepers when
there's a hot topic brewing. Gee, look at how DU has had to reduce the levels of access due to much higher posting numbers!

I give Tom and the Dem hosts a lot of credit for accepting the freeper calls! Limpballs, Hanity and the other Pubs won't let you on the air!!!! Guess they're scared you might have a better argument!

6. Thanks.
I kind of figured that was the case. It kind of cracks me up when these people call in, spewing their blather, and Thom and other hosts just destroy their arguments. 'Course, some of them are so thick-headed they don't realize they are being made to look like fools!

B-)

7. Thom has mentioned a GOP boiler room in No.VA that calls talkshows
I'd really like to know more about that.
