Bernie Ward just said that if you don't support the war in Iraq
Edited on Wed Aug-24-05 12:17 AM by ailsagirl
that not only are you unpatriotic, you are now a Stalinist.
According to the latest neocon propaganda.

Oh, OK.

:crazy:

1. Thanks for clearing that up, asshole.
(that was directed at Bernie, not you, btw :))

Bernie Ward and the rest of this neocon bunch are a bunch of psychos. Calling anyone who disagrees with you unpatriotic is getting a bit old, isn't it?

2. Uh... Bernie is a liberal
He was saying it in disgust. Are you thinking of someone else?
Bernie is definitely cool.

10. LOL, thank goodness....I'd thought we lost one!
My frustration came when I thought he was being SERIOUS!

Very bright, very up on things. I learn a lot listening to him.

3. Please don't call Bernie a neocon!

He's a bud to all of us. I take it Bernie was relaying to us what he heard was the latest criteria he's heard from the neocons of what constitutes an anti-war person... Please don't insult him!

12. Yes-- he was telling us that the latest neocon BS is that you are
now a STALINIST if you are against the war. Guess just being
unpatriotic wasn't cutting it.

Those people will sink to any depths...

24. I really don't think that's going to stick. Younger people don't have
a clue what they're talking about; Hell, I'm 62 and I hardly remember Stalin.

34. They must know that it's a pejorative term, I would think!!
I would hope, anyway.

I think the neocons are getting desperate, and in that
desperation, they're sounding more and more insane. Or
just plain ludicrous.

The next step, of course, is for Rumfilled to say that anyone against Boosh's Glorious War performs strange and satanic sexual acts with small, furry woodland creatures.

I wish he's get a national gig. AAR should have him instead of Jerry Springer.

4. Bernie wasn't saying...
that you're unpatriotic, etc. He was saying that according to the NeoCons you're unpatriotic, etc.

Bernie Ward is a fire-breathing liberal.

9. And hopefully one of the new talk show hosts on Sirius soon too!
to replace the AAR vaccuum. Sirius has been trying to buy ABC Radio properties lately (rumored for Disney stuff, but perhaps this might be part of it...)

20. I'm trying to recommend Sirius gets a nice solid block of live programming
starting with Bernie:

10 PM - 1 AM - Bernie Ward
1 AM - 5 AM - Ray Taliafierro
5 AM - 6 AM - Democracy Now live!
6 AM - 9 AM - Stephanie Miller
9 AM - NOON - Thom Hartmann

That would be a nice block of solid live night time programming to line up against AAR during those time slots on a new channel.

Sorry-- it's late and my mind is a bit muddled.
Is that what you meant?

22. Nah, Sirius isn't saying anything yet...
I was just suspecting that their talks with ABC might have included getting access to Bernie and Ray from KGO since they would both fit in nicely to their time slot holes. The more of us that push for it, perhaps it can happen. Sirius is still keeping quiet about what their ultimate plans are...

25. That would be great!! Ray is on way too late for me but I know
he's definitely a good talk show host. I believe he comes on at
1:00 a.m.

So at 10:00 p.m., I alternate between him and Malloy.

13. Bernie is not streaming here?

All four iTunes mp#, Quicktime, RealPlayer and Window produces no result.

I have started to listen to an iPod Lizz Brown programme as a result.

28. Sometimes...
Used to get him up in the Bayarea great... At least he's on at night. Daytime it's impossible here in SoCal (San Diego) to get a decent signal from KGO. And in the evening there are still many areas where there is significant dropouts, which gets annoying when you are driving around.

35. How is Mike Webb?
He's one I was also recommending to get picked up by Sirius in their new lineup too...

Go here for the lineups... The first two are the most relevant graphs. The last two were based on a pipe dream that Sirius might be able to get Randi and/or Mike Malloy away from XM/AAR since they haven't been carrying them. I think with Randi XM is soon rectifying that.

37. I like Mike Webb
He's not as razor sharp as Bernie. But who is.

If the last column is your pipe dream, why have Gene Burns in there? Isn't he pretty far right? Unless I'm confusing him with someone else. I thought he was the host on right before Bernie.

38. No, he's not my favorite...
Edited on Wed Aug-24-05 01:29 AM by calipendence
If I had my choice at that time slot, I'd be listening to Mike Malloy. If KLSD would stop idiotically throw Springer over Malloy's first two hours, I'd easily have that as my first choice then. But Alan Colmes on both XM and Sirius at that time now leaves me wanting. I actually like Burns sometimes a bit better than Colmes when he's talking about the war. Burns is Libertarian, and makes no bones about his distaste for the war. He was great to be able to listen to before I got Sirius and Air America came around. It was like night and day listening to him vs. someone like Laura Ingraham on KFMB (who was my only other night time drivetime choice in those days here locally but who I tried to avoid and drove me to get Sirius eventually). Pretty easily picked Burns instead then. I'd probably pick up Mike Newcomb or whoever they might put in opposite Colmes on Sirius's new channel, whoever they got (which would be someone like Mike Webb or Mike Newcomb in that one charge). That or I'll podcast during that time... Springer's OK, but not really my cup of tea.

48. They love to dig up words without knowing the meaning.
For Bush, the Cold War was a blur of drugs and failure in the business world. I doubt he knows who Joseph Stalin is, otherwise he wouldn't be calling Chavez a communist.
