I have never heard so much negativity and hate in my life.....
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 02:41 PM by kentuck
as I do when I listen to the radio. It seems like a panic has overcome the Republicans and their spokesmen on talk radio. It's not only the right-wing radio hosts, but the political ads as well. Their opponents may as well be ax murderers. No matter how hard the Democrats try, they will have a difficult time reaching the lows of this present Republican Party. Is it any wonder the country is so divided? It's a disgrace.

2. Ha! These Repugs are cupcakes
compared to how my family used to behave around Chirstmas time.

It made me into an agnostic.

Honestly, the Republicans have been in an increasing state of moral and ethical decay since the mid 1960s. Anyone who thinks the ends justify the means is not much different from some of the defendants in the Nuremburg trials.

3. Classic response of the drowning
fear, panic, grab at whatever you can to keep from sinking...

They've lost and they know it.

5. Well luckily at least one hate-filled voice will be busy focusing
on somehting else for a little while. poor bill o'reilly huh?

oh how the mighty have fallen. hope he has fun finding places to pimp his childrens book now that we all know he owns a vibrator of his very own. which i'm still not sure what he does with.

so we have drug addict and a wierdly perverted sexual harasser as the bastions of conservative radio.

10. YES!
I'm still trying to figure out what he does with his vibrator. I mean i know of all sorts of things a guy can do with a personal vibrator. But Bill O'Reilly is a republican, and we all know it's those sleazy liberals that do THAT kind of stuff. they're all sorta homo.

gah. i hate psychotic freaks.

actually reading through this lawsuit makes me kind of sick inside, especially hte comments about how he'd destroy anyone that tried ot press charges, and whatnot. absolutely disgusting. and no doubt in my mind he's guilty as sin.

and it leaves me with...well...schadenfreude. hee! :D

11. Radio has been this way for some time - but it's becoming more pervasive
The extremist right-wing wackos used to hang out on AM stations. Thanks to the take-over of FM stations they are now everywhere. Educated people who can afford it are switching to satellite radio. Unfortunately, that just divides the country more.

12. Goes both ways
I've been reading both DU and LGF (as well as others on both sides) and in my opinion, neither side is taking the high road.

I wish people on both sides would lighten up, stop demonizing and stick to the facts (facts, not opinions).

my two cents

16. I couldn't agree more
I don't have much time for TV but when I do see the ads I keep expecting to see one side or the other claiming their opponent eats live babies or some such. The *cons are by far the worst of course but this style of attack politics just makes me queasy at times.

13. I listened to Insannities opening diatribe of hate today and couldn't
believe he is allowed to spew such hatred while calling all democrats the haters. It was an insane display of right wing hate speech if I ever heard hate speech. He fell inches from telling all his zealot zombies to go out and kill all democrats. I honestly cannot believe it's allowed to be aired. I'm all for free speech but hate speech that perpetuates hate crimes against democrats? He has a mob mentality and he really ought to be fined and imprisoned after taking many anger management classes. He is out of control. Well, so is the whole repug party, they have spun out of control.
