You'll be much easier to relate to that way.
DJD speaks a lot of truth. It's extremely sad that our left leaning federal governement is fighting, shoving and clawing for all it's worth to pass this gov run healthcare bill. THE MAJORITY DO NOT WANT IT!!! That being the case, why are Pelosi and others wheeling and dealing to "buy" votes to pass it? It's political suicide for SO MANY who are involved. If it passes, a lot of folks in Congress and Senate will lose their seats (the largest majority will be dems. That makes me happy!). If it doesn't pass, well, Obama will be considered a huge failure for not getting it done. Mark my word, there will be a huge shift when Obama gets voted out in 2012. Lets just hope too much damage is not done between now and then. A fiscal conservative government majority will help get us back on track as long as they follow that path.
Now, getting back to the talk radio issue. Why are Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity, Cunningham and the like so popular? Is it because, as you would say, they lie and stretch the truth? They are successful on talk radio because the majority in Americans share their values and beliefs. And here's a good questions for you... Why don't left wingers have successful talk radio programs? I'm sure people would be tuning in all over the USA to listen to The Rev. Jackson or Al Gore or Jerimiah Wright. NO!!! That wouldn't happen!!! Do you know why? Radio advertisers don't invest in a loser. And liberal-slanted radio would be a loser.
