If hate radio and hate TV donot influence people
then there is nothing wrong with MTV's Skins. Indeed Skins is merely showing teen reality. I find the double standards breath-taking. You can't argue First Amendment rights for your agenda and then attack said rights elsewhere.

This is hilarious.

1. Tea bagging R's always yell about their rights while they will attempt to take
someone else's away. They are the entitled ones who don't want others to share the same entitlements, they believe that only they pay taxes because someone told them that the poor pay no taxes, when reality is that poor don't pay income tax, but the poor pay taxes whenever they buy the needs to live, somehow they believe that the poor are tax exempt, you know like their mega church leaders are. TBR's are all about double standards.

3. 100% correct
If Democrats had a fringe group behaving like the teabaggers did at town hall meetings, they would have all been locked up and publicly condemned.

5. If hate radio and TV did not influence people, then why would they bother? Then when the obviously
desired effect is achieved, to disavow any cause and effect would seen disingenuous and duplicitous to the point of magnifying their mendacity and hypocrisy to comical levels. ;)

2. Hate radio and hate TV don't influence people...
but Keith is too dangerous and influential to have on the air. Double standards indeed.

4. Do you know any actual right wingers?
They can turn a rhetorical 180 on a dime without so much as batting an eyelash, skeered of big gooberment in one breath military needs to torture terrists in the next.
