Sorry no link to an article. Just my personal observation. Today on philadelphia talk radio, SPORTS talk radio, 2 sub hosts, Dick Jiraudi and Rod Cherry turned Eagles and Phillies talk into Bash Bush day. I usually listen to Anthony Gargano and Mike Missinelli for sports till Rush comes on at 12, but the Phillies game was on today so no Rush on that station. Somehow the topics slowly turned from Eagles season and Phillies playoff hopes to the gas prices. From there it was downhill.
"Bush is OBVIOUSLY to blame for these gas prices." "The man is a moron and everyone knows it." "If you dont think hes a buffoon then your just as dumb as he is."
From there it went to the war.
"Why are we wasting our money in IRaq when we need it here?" "All our national guardsmen are over in Iraq and we have zero here to help." "Anyone that disputes that this war is a miserable failure hasnt been reading the papers or watching the news."
Two guys, both of which i knew were libs before their outburst today, i thought were tolerable because they would talk sports. Anytime they crept into politics theyd always show their ignorance. In the past they would always keep it toned down, but today it was unleashed. Most of the people that called in were Republicans trying to argue with them. They quickly cut them off except for a few. A father who said his son was going into basic next week was arguing how these soldiers fight for their country. They simple said no one wants to be over there and that the soldiers were lied too.
It was a disgusting display of ignorance and it further displays why Liberal Talk Radio never works. I stomached about 20 mins before i switched to the phillies game.
