Who was subbing for Levin today? I only got to hear him for 10 min or so but I swear I heard him say something about Obama being associated with the muslim brotherhood. Edit: It was Tom Marr but I have no idea who he is. Chernobyl Prize fucked around with this message at 04:49 on Sep 5, 2013 |

Crasscrab posted:McCaine owns Twiddledee and Twiddledum. I have my problems with McCaine, but the blithering idiots on Fox who do zero research or comprehension on anything at all need to get smacked down by common sense republicans until they are driven off the air in shame. Preferably involving them walking through a crowd of people jeering at the useless morons and throwing rotting fruit at them. Really in general though, the anti-intellectual anti-research anti-comprehension behavior of the far right deserves nothing but abject and very aggressive ridicule & exposure for what it is - ignorant idiocy blathered by simpletons. The republican party, if it truly wants to move into the 21st century, would definitely want to start expelling the idiots in that regard. Unfortunately, the lunatics still run the asylum - and they're doomed to failure no matter how much they suppress voting rights. Spacedad fucked around with this message at 05:32 on Sep 5, 2013 |

They would have to grow enough balls to slap down Limbaugh every once and a while. That's not going to happen since they don't have strong leadership and aren't really suited to being a big-tent party.

Speaking of the Fox Morning Crew when did Doocy's son start working for them? Please tell me that idiot doesn't have any more kids to nepotism in, because this one has all of his dad's stupidity but somehow makes it boring and flat.

Holy guacamole, today was an awesome day of incoherent rantings from the right. Ted Cruz (played by count chocula's stunt double) was on a call with the fill in for Glen Beck. The exchange was truely something to behold. A few choice paraphrases from the suposed Presidential Hopeful: 'This Syria business is a distraction from the real danger ----OMBAMACARE,' 'we don't want Syria to become another ------BENGHAZI,' 'Our men and women didn't sign up to be AL QAEDA's air force.' 'Did I forget to say ALQAEDA BARAKOBENGHAZICARE?'  Pretty pathetic if you ask me. SRY no link, but it's out there.

Local right-wing blowhard Jason Lewis, who from what I understand is getting a higher nationwide profile, was in hilarious Libertarian meltdown mode over bombing Syria. Mr. "Big-L" Libertarian was reduced to quoting the UN charter as a reason that the US shouldn't bomb Syria and quoting Vladimir Putin left and right. In the end he said that Republicans were a worthless party that he would no longer have any association with before admitting that he was scheduled to do a Republican fundraiser later in the month. Pretty much the only good thing to come out of the horrible "Bomb Syria" drive is watching right-wing commentators tie themselves in knots.

I'm liking Levin's rage against the machine insurgency more every day. He's just so perfect. Only the purist of the rightests of wing can appease him. Oh, Reagan? Yeah, he worked for him. The constitution? Not only does he know what it says, he knows that it's meant to say exactly what you think it says. He'll sound lucid one moment, go into a rage the next, transition into the most childish name play (Washington Compost, MSLSD, Kathleen Supersillyious), and bookend the whole thing with Linkin Park songs. Recently he's started referring to the affordable care act as BoehnerCare and it's glorious. He is the pudgy personification of the malignant cancer destroying the party.

Intel&Sebastian posted:I can't even get angry about it anymore, they have literally no positions other than oppositebama. The cloud of confusion in RW land over Syria is hilarious. Hannity will just do whatever the gently caress he wants and pretend he's always been at war with Eurasia but now we're getting people like Liz Cheney in a single appearance saying she's been saying we should bomb Syria for years AND that she wouldn't vote to approve the bombings now...because....something, while Donald Motherfuckin' Rumsfeld decides to be the next Ollie North and shows up on Fox news talking about a lack of planning, poor leadership, etc. It's worse than this though. CNN this morning was talking about Syria and the hearings and poo poo and actually said "who better to ask than Donal Rumsfeld, who will be joining us in the next segment." Noted war criminal and colossal gently caress up Donald Rumsfeld up next to offer his expert opinion on war in the middle east.

I find Jason Lewis to be the most infuriating of all talk show hosts because he spends so much time screaming "I'm a libertarian! I hate Republicans!" while in reality he's one of the most racist and anti-gay talk show hosts out there. He even spent a bunch of time criticizing Bachmann and Santorum in 2012 for being too religious and trying to be "pastors rather than politicians" while in reality there's not a hair's width of difference between Santorum/Bachmann and him on social issues. In fact he's almost worse because he doesn't hide behind the bible, he just openly hates anyone who challenges his rich white heterosexual male privilege.

I'll laugh at those in the comments (particularly the more recent ones) who don't realize this is satire. Meanwhile, Hannity confirms he's done with Cumulus: http://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/84924/sean-hannity-confirms-cumulus-departure/ And not right-wing, but they made official a new weekly Alec Baldwin show on MSNBC. I'm just wondering when he'll just lose it and quit.

Rush decided to rail against socialism and what is taught in schools by announcing that he's writing fanfiction about his tea company mascot.Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims: Time-Travel Adventures with Exceptional Americans summary on Amazon posted:Nationally syndicated radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh has long wanted to make American history come to life for the children of his listeners, so he created the character of a fearless middle-school history teacher named Rush Revere, who travels back in time and experiences American history as it happens, in adventures with exceptional Americans. In this book, he is transported back to the deck of the Mayflower. Oh no, a substitute teacher with a talking horse that can time travel is gonna tell me that socialism failing is how Thanksgiving came into being.

Sorry Rush, "American history for kids" was already done very well by a cartoon series I remember watching called Liberty's Kids, which chronicled the American revolution. I thought it showed a really good historical view of the American Revolution, it even touched on issues of Loyalists vs Patriots and slavery. Of course it was produced by PBS so to conservatives it's evil communist propaganda.

Are you sure about the hookers part? I don't think there was an underage male sex slave market in this time period. Also Rush needs the blue pill to get it up.
