In St. Louis we have to deal with a real up and coming name in the art of indignantly reading the drudgereport for 3 hours, Dana Loesch. There is not a single talking point she won't regurgitate and yell about for the entire show. Luckily her radio station runs ads or 'news' for about 60% of their airtime, so if you ever accidentally tune it to 97.1, chances are you won't actually hear her. She got an "in" into national conservative stardom by being a huge Andrew Breitbart sycophant. On the day he died, she was in tears on the radio, and it was the greatest thing I've ever experienced. One of the things she likes to complain about is lazy people, because she has time to homeschool her children while working THREE JOBS! (those jobs are the radio show, running a blog, and being a right-wing parrot on CNN, for a total of maybe 20 hours a week?)

GoatSeeGuy posted:Or perhaps not. http://mediamatters.org/blog/2012/11/01/kudos-to-cnn-for-dana-loeschs-mysterious-three/191051 CNN seems to have shelved her. I've heard rumors that she's about to get a national show. Maybe it's just that I live in St. Louis, but I'm hearing her name everywhere on right-wing websites. Probably because she blogs for most of them. Also she had a huge crush on Breitbart (and followed him around like a puppy: (http://www.mediaite.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/bbmmfa.jpg) and was nearly in tears on her radio show the day he died. It was loving glorious. She's not a parody like Coulter, she seems to legitimately run on pure hatred.

According to him, our media is controlled by Arabs because some story he tried to run on CNN had to clear the "Middle Eastern" desk before it could go to air. Also, CNN showed Anderson Cooper in Gaza and all he talked about how brutal Israel is being to the Palestinians. I never knew our country/media only showed Palestine in a flattering light. I guess I don't watch TV correctly. It didn't help that Cooper almost got bombed - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X22QHxrwp_E

mr. mephistopheles posted:Not really related to right-wing media except as far as the mindset that they bore into peoples' heads is prevalent on every level of thought, but I was reading a message board for Borderlands 2 earlier and somebody was complaining about how the game had clear liberal bias by having a male character that mentions his past male lovers in some dialogues. I like how he latches on to one single ECHO recording in the entire game, while ignoring Moxxi's omnipresent bisexuality. It's OK for girls to be gay, as long as they're hot. It's similiar to Mass Effect, femshep could gently caress another girl since ME1, and you didn't hear a peep until male shep could nail a guy in ME3.

A Silver Star is just a couple of steps down the food chain from a Medal of Honor, and it's not something that you can fake. Kerry was a genuine war-hero, and the bastards dragged his name through the mud. For the silver star, Kerry beached his boat to chase down a kid with an RPG before they could fire on the boats. For the bronze star, he pulled a guy from the water while under fire.

It seems the sequestration marching orders are: A) it's not bad and B) anything bad that happens that Obama blames on it is due to Obama intentionally causing problems to "scare" people. At least that's what I'm gathering from Rush and Dana today. Sequestration is forcing the DHS to release some non-violent undocumented migrants with ankle bracelets. Obama doesn't have to do this due to sequestration, he's only doing it to scare you into thinking it's a big deal. It's sad that such a retarded conspiracy theory is going to be eaten up by half of the US.

They don't seem to understand the irony of calling other people low-information, while getting the entirety of their opinions spoon-fed to them from an opiate addict.

totalnewbie posted:Haha duck penises. Certain species of ducks are very pro-rape. To combat this, female ducks evolved vaginas that are basically mazes, with dead ends n poo poo. To counter-counter evolve this, male ducks now have body-length corkscrew penises. However, the female can relax her vagina and offer direct access to males she approves of. Rape, while common with ducks, doesn't account for very many fertilization. Still, it'd be useful to know their reproductive habits so we have a better idea on how to preserve endangered species, and the cost that they're bitching about it 0.1 cents per person.

So, GOP non-person Chris Christie wants to build a dune to prevent another Sandy from causing 30 billion dollars in damage to his state. People with shore property don't want their first floor view of the ocean obstructed, so they're doing everything they can to oppose it. Anyway, Christie is saying gently caress you, we'll save money by doing this. This makes him a big government RINO.

So this morning I was listening to my local conservative (Jaime Allman) on the radio this morning, and mid-rant he called Obama a "grant imperial wizard"... now, he wasn't trying to make some sort of "liberals are the real racists" point, so I'm pretty sure he's just too stupid to know what a grand or imperial wizard is. I was actually pretty dumbstruck that someone would said that.
