1. I've been listening to him
and he's a putz. especially when he takes callers. He doesn't listen at all and makes ridiculous arguments just to confuse them. As a result there's nothing of value to take away. It's like trying to hold a conversation with a lunatic. Oh, and he's annoying too.

3. Monday was enough for me - he's effin' horrible
Edited on Tue May-15-07 04:14 PM by Adenoid_Hynkel
Hearing that little weasel whine about "political correctness" and a "culture of victimization" in his irritating micahel savage-on-helium voice
Call AAR and tell them to bring back Sam!
Why have a liberal network if you're going to give time to rightwing libertarians?

6. I listened Monday, and today, and here is what I thought...
:puke:

Horrible show...simply ghastly. My 6 year old nephew could do a better job and at least be entertaining. This show is more painful than I thought progressive talk could ever be. I actually switched stations around for awhile becuase I could not take one more second of it.

9. Why?
Why won't we regret it?

Looks like others do.

I listened to him some time back from a podcast. Once. Don't care for him at all.

So why the push? If you are gonna spam for the guy, tell us why.

10. I've heard this guy for 3 days now.
Sorry, but I just don't see it. Today it's him arguing with listeners about religion. What's happening with congress this morning? Where are the investigations going?

From what I've heard so far his whole shtick seems to be to stake out a controversial opinion and screen for callers who disagree with him so he can be at odds with them. He tries to be deliberately controversial purely as an entertainment device. I'm not even sure if he holds all of the opinions he states. I don't sense any sincerity or passion.

12. 30% Of The Threads On This Very Page Are About Religion,...
and you have to ask why he's talking about religion. We're in a war right now that's partially over religion.

16. But the discussion wasn't even interesting.
At least not to me. Sorry but this guy doesn't hold my interest, not even as entertainment.

But that's just me. You obviously feel differently. To each his own.

17. now he has self-proclaimed conservatives calling in and aprrecating the change
from the older, superior aar lineup.

so this is green's strategy: water the network down til its about nothing and rightwingers will listen.
hell, i guess they hired a rightwing liberatarian in lionel's case to placate them

good lord, do i miss sam
