No better example of the far left wacked-out Democrats can be found than in Move-On.org,UA for Progressive Action,Code Pink et.al. and now OhioMajorityRadio.Here's a sample of their thinking...taken from their Yahoo chat site:

Subject: [ohiomajorityradio] Re: Fairness Doctrine
   
I also feel some ambivalence toward the Fairness Doctrine. It is too easy to give the APPEARANCE of being "fair and balanced" while still spreading propaganda. Hannity & Colmes is the best example of this that comes to my mind. A handsome, aggressive, liberal-bashing, "conservative" host and a geeky-looking, somewhat timid, moderate liberal (and no insult meant toward Alan Colmes, because there is no way in hell that *I* could do his job with a deck stacked so against me like that!) co-hosting a show gives "fair" representation to both sides, doesn't it? Fox Noise says it does.

Yes, I am concerned that reinstituting the "Fairness Doctrine" under the present political climate and media system could backfire. What has happened is that "news" has deteriorated into whatever makes money, and an educated and informed public be damned. There is no financial incentive to explain complex issues or present "boring" facts, when the public seems to want a political version of the WWF!! Truth and facts vs. lies and attacking the messenger, (which is the M.O. of the Religious Right, the neocons, the Republicans in Congress, the executive branch, and almost all their media pundits) is not "fairness".

Dick Cheney has been on numerous TV interviews telling outright lies, which the hosts allow to pass when they could easily be refuted by simply "rolling the tape" of Cheney saying something that contradicts what he just lied about! Is it laziness, -- or intimidation, -- on the part of the media that they don't call him on his s***? Having Dick Cheney on for ten minutes and then Democrat X on for ten minutes does no good if it all comes down to a "he said, she said" discussion. This is what has so polarized American politics and why the religious extremists, neocons, corporatists, and militarists have gained such power. The saying, "Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but not everyone is entitled to their own facts," is no longer true. Facts have become irrelevant. Truth is whatever Cheney and his enablers say it is.

If you are working all the time just to survive, and trying to raise a family, and exhausted, then you don't really have the luxury of fact-checking. This is how the masses can be deceived. This is also why CLASS is such a bedrock issue. It is the creation and sustaining of a middle class that gives people the time to become the educated and informed electorate needed to participate in democracy.

The Left was in fine form at BBC/WOSU/Cols MetroClub soire on Tuesday 3-20-07 where the event was ostensibly planned to be a "Neck-Tie" party and public hanging of President George Bush.However ...3 soldiers "for truth,justice and American Way beat back the frontiers of hate and ignorance with facts not emotional assaults.

I would gladly give them back a radio time slot for Air America if we can get one of the Broadcast Networks for FOX News.

Subject: [ohiomajorityradio] Re: Olbermann asks: Why just Imus??
    Ok, how about this conspiracy: Bushco needs someething to take the focus off of the vile little toad Torturo Gonzalez right now. Imus is what, 66? And a rightwinger. Imus get's a call from Turdblossom, "Take a dive for Dubya, Imus". On top of that, now we have Glenn Beck doing a show on "Do liberals get away with syaing things that consevative can't" My God, they spent a week beating this to death and now they have the school shooting to keep everyone distracted. Sunday i tuned into Meet the Press and theywere saying who was going to be and the tiopics. the roundtabel topics were Imus (no. 1), Gonzalez, and one other I don't recall. So, knowing that e-mail gate broke on Friday I was eager to hear what they said about it. The roundtable part comes on and they are talking Imus, Imus, Imus. the show ends and guess what? No discussion whatsoever of Torturo and the missing illegal RNC e-mails!!! Shocking, I know.


We don't need to out them....they "out" themselves as hate mongers ! Plus....I don't think many would think Imus is or was a right winger.Further underscores their obtuseness.

IMUS REPLACEMENT Huh? Yes,MSNBC,in their infinite wisdom has given Left-Wing Radio Talker ,Stephanie Miller, a three day test run filling in for Imus' AM show starting Apri 30th.Lets see.....Imus an equal opportunity basher being replaced by a 24/7 BUSH HATER....the libs are estatic and giddy with happiness.Resurrected from the AirAmerica ash heap, Steffie will poison off whats left of sane viewers at NBC's hate machine. Here's an unedited example of the lefts hate speak:

    Correct! I was in a call center last week where a TV (with the sound off) was tuned to CNN Headline News, and Smerconish was filling in for the odious Glenn Beck.

Smerconish, who is skinheaded, glares and glowers at the camera like a wooden, stiff gestapo officer. A creepier fill-in host could not be imagined.

    Hey all,

Below is a letter I just sent to viewerservices@ msnbc.com . I strongly
suggest that everyone else send their own note of thanks as well. Can
you imagine the power that will be added to Progressive Talk if we can
get the television airwaves to carry hosts who entertain and inform
while debunking right-wing talking points?

Yours in the Cause,

    I see that today, the partisan, un-American degenerates in the Senate WILL MOVE DECISIVELY FORWARD... on a referendum to condemn MoveOn.Org for telling the truth in its controversial "General Betray Us" ad.

All these bastards who have abandoned the will and the needs of the American people in their full-tilt rush to embrace personal wealth and power, and to fall in line at the well-sucked feet of the Imperial Murderer-In- Chief, can take their place at the right hand of Satan for all eternity.

WELL..ITS DeJaVu ALL Over Again.  Looks like the "SURGE" is definetly NOT WORKING !!!....The "SURGE" of course is renewed sputtering of AIR AMerica here in Central Ohio known as 1580 WVKO. Poor Rachel Maddow...Poor Bill Press...poor Stephanie Miller(where O Where will I be able to get my "Steph Stuff?")....they just can't "hepp-it". Yes the station needs YOUR help to stay on the airwaves.Here's the "skinny" taken from one of the horses mouths(Litle Grey or Doo-Dah Doug):

Advise to Shadow and IS: I wouldn't waste too much time in getting a large donation down to WVKO before their lights go out. Geeesch...I'd thought they could of lasted till  Nov 5th 2008.......CALLING GEORGE SOROS :rolleyes:
