Lynn Samuels on Sirius Today: Re Obama
I had the misfortune of listing to Lynn Samuels on Sirius today and I have got to say the degree to which she hates Obama is stunning. She called him every name in the book, the most charitable being a whining yuppie. There were several curse words and references to the drug issues Hannity was talking about.

Obama needs to head whatever this is off at the pass. If there is something, he has to be the one to let it out.

This is the reason so many people tune politics out.

2. That is just one of the reasons I don't have Sirius anymore
their prime time liberal content is alex bennet and lynn samuels

she is a drudge fan, and will eventually go the way satellite radio will go, into the toilet

4. She talked about Obama whining?
Wow. Her voice makes my ears bleed. She starts her show whining, ends it whining, and in between, she whines. Maybe she feels she's an expert?

5. Samuels lost it years ago, and I can't...
understand how she holds a job. Anywhere. She was barely sufferable back in the WBAI days, but back then the point was to be wrecked and act stupid.

She was, and may still be, the house leftie on WABC in NYC, but I swear it was only to show how dumb lefties could be.

6. You would have to have been bored out of your mind;
To listen to Lynn Samuels....the up side to this is you were one of the less than 100 listeners she had today. There's 160 other channels to listen to until 3 P.M., then you get Eddie Schultz, that's worth listening to!

7. Her voice drives me nuts
I can't stand more than 2 seconds of it. We bought lifetime Sirius for a good price years ago when they had the young turks and air america on it...now I feel cheated and since we paid like $500 to be forever my husband won't change so I am hoping the two go together...

8. I heard that.
I'm a Sirius subscriber, because I can listen to Malloy and Hartman (1st hour at 9 our time, other two hours later that evening);

HOWEVER, I'm was SO upset at what she said.

She referred to Obama as 'beige,' and suggested that he and his wife weren't that smart.

Well, I, as a law school graduate, can say this: "Getting in is one thing; getting out is another." So, it doesn't matter what factors were taken into consideration in their respective admissions. They graduated in good standing; and, in law school, you pray that you will pass. I'd been an 'A' student all of my life, but prayed to just get through law school. Plus, Obama taught constitutional law for several years; you don't last long doing that if you are very impressive in your constitutional law knowledge.

That's just my humble opinion.

ANYWAY, to make a long story short, I sent them an email AND a letter, just like one of her callers requested. I told them that it was time for Lynn to go.

AND, I haven't been an Obama supporter thus far. Samuels lost her mind, and was definitely 'over-the-top' today.
