3. Next time you gotta say,
"I wanna tell Mr. Brock exactly what he is!!" Apparently, that gets through.

6. I'm reading his book, and it makes me physically ill.
I'm serious.
His first book (Blinded By The Right) made me sick, too.

7. I liked Blinded by the Right, I just ordered The Noise Machine.
I liked watching him, and I thought many of the callers were rude. I think he expects it though. More power to him. This thread rather surprises me. We need everyone we can get on our side. He has done a great job of exposing the Washington Times.

10. Owned by Rev. Moon. Brock was once a reporter there.
He came from that Republican machine. Read Blinded by the Right. He knows about it all because he was an integral part of it.

8. Bad
I think the screener hung up on you because they suspected you were not a Republican, not because of your question.

One other thing, I don't think it's a good idea to call C-Span on the wrong line. When I hear Democrats call on the Republican line, I think it makes us look bad.

11. I agree
I like watching c-span and people from both parties calling in on the wrong line is annoying and childish. Please don't do that

13. that's too bad..
I watch but have never called in. I like c-span, it doesn't have all the politics of the regular media. I think it's funny how the host of the washington journal can just sit there with a blank face while angry people call in and go off on some weird tangent
