Why is Liberal Radio So Inept?
On the air I want the sort of Viagra-fueled maniacs conservatives have on the front lines, not a bunch of impotent lefties who couldn't fight their way out of a paper bag.

I live in the city where the dastardly Professor William Ayers works. I attended the school where he teaches. I even took one of his classes. I am a bad patriot, my Chicago an Un-American city. .

If this latest attack turns out to carry similar motives to that of Adkisson in Tennessee, perhaps we should start wondering whether statements made on conservative radio have an effect on listeners.

There was a religious flavor to the tragic killings in Knoxville, TN -- and I don't just refer to the Unitarian Church in which the murders took place.

These right-wing pundits make their money and serve their political agenda by telling people like Jim Adkisson that liberal Americans are treacherous and mentally ill enemies of the state.

Who really killed those Unitarians? The economic system that batters people like Jim Adkinson until they snap, then tells them their real enemies are gays and liberals and secular humanists?

Voters need to overcome their fear in order not simply to hate the haters -- they need to recognize who in fact the haters are.

While the normal brain is the site of reason and intelligence, the talk show host brain, dependent on bias and fanaticism to filter information, cannot distinguish rumor from fact.

Conservative fears of an impending Democratic attack on right-wing talk radio continue to escalate, despite ample evidence that such an assault is unlikely to occur.

How open-minded can Bill O'Reilly be if he thinks McClellan doing TV interviews is the equivalent of doing nothing while watching a friend get gang raped?

Dig deeper, and the question of who Michael Savage is becomes more complicated. "Savage" isn't his real name; it seems to speak to his heightened sense of masculinity, aggression, and antipathy toward minorities.
