Egalitarianism is simply absurd

I agree, it is readily apparent that some liberals do indeed dislike free speech

No, we just hate that people listen to the lies and accept them because some famous jerk says it's true.

Liberals don't do that.  We get our information from the internet.

Did you know that Savage used to be a liberal?  Sad

Is there a Jew who hasn't?

I should say, is there a secular Jew who hasn't. In my experience, Orthodox Jews tend to live very conservative lives.

I love to listen to Linbaugh and M. Savage. thank God for people like them. The liberals are trying their best to put them out of business. They can't handle freedom of speech.  Angry I watch Hannity every night. He is a real patriot.  Smiley don't care much for O'Reiley though. Seems like a phoney to me.

Michael Savage is one of the reasons why people don’t respect conservatives and the Republican Party. When you place the torch of the conservative movement in the hands of a radio talk show host – be it Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh or Michael Savage – you are in deep, deep trouble.

You mean liberals don't respect conservatives and the republican party. I know a few democrats who are voting republican for the first time. they don't care for the liberals or their nominee. Many democrats are not liberals. Michael Savage drives the left wing crazy.  Grin I think its funny!

Bush goes bumbling along, grinning and spewing moronic one-liners, as though nobody understands what a colossal failure he has been. I fear to the depth of my being that John McCain is just like him. Jack Cafferty

I don't know any personally but know someone who does. Its a crazy election year. I don't care for Bush, never voted for him, always a democrat. Its gonna feel strange voting for a republican this time. But I feel John McCain is more like the old Democrats, not a right winger. People on here call me a racist but thats ok with me cause I know what I am. I have no problen voting for a person of another race or gender for that matter, but not hillary or obama. I am against far left liberalism, not you run of the mill liberals. I have been called a liberal a few times and a man and I almost got into a fistfight over politics. He was a right winger and really hated democrats and women as well. I am tough and would not back away from him, think he was shocked as he thought I would cut and run.  Cheesy

How much are you willing to bet that a majority of people between the ages of 18 and 25 get most of their news from The Daily Show or The Colbert Report?

There is a worrying fusion between entertainment and information in the media today. Instead of getting the facts, we get poorly-written jokes from people who know absolutely nothing about politics. There is also the disturbing occurrence of pro-Barack Obama bias…

But I digress.

If any of you have teenaged children who watch shows like Jon Stewart’s or Stephen Colbert’s, tell them to brush aside the bullshit and tell them the facts. You’ll be doing them a tremendous favor.
The best way to get truths is from the persons own mouth and BO and his wife have said more then enough to not vote for him!
