How about doing a topic on how good the economy is doing and the current success or failure of Air America? What about the lies in Michael Moore’s movie?
With tons of books/movies coming out that are anti-Bush and hundreds of Impeach Bush and "I hate Bush" websites, Bush is still in the running, when like you said, he should be down in the polls by 75 to 25.
"How about doing a topic on how good the economy is doing and the current success or failure of Air America? What about the lies in Michael Moore’s movie?"
Well, for a start, while the economy — on paper — seems to be turning a corner, the plain fact is that Bush’s job record is still the worst on record since Herbert Hoover. Even Jimmy Carter added 10 million jobs during his 4 year tenure.
The bungled administration at Air America doesn’t have much effect on anything. Their product is quite good (if you’ve taken the time to listen, which I doubt), but their Administration is a disaster. Hopefully, that’ll get fixed. If not, it’s a shame. But I’m not sure what the "news" story is there.
In re: "the lies of Michael Moore’s movie". What lies? Feel free to let me know!
"Bush is still in the running, when like you said, he should be down in the polls by 75 to 25."
Yup. And I’ve spoken to that and given a few likely reasons. So what’s your point?

The lies of Michael Moore.

Carter did not inherit the Clinton/Gore recession, tons of dotcom and telecom busts, Enron, WorldCom, 911, etc. The jobs are on their way – they are always the last to recover. I am still working and I worked for WorldCom. Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Bush never hired me and they won’t fire me either. I will do well no matter what the economy does because I will take care of myself. My dotcom/telecom friends are working.
Air America – The news story is that Liberal radio has no real "large" market like conservative radio does. There are tons of awesome local conservative talk show hosts that are even better than Rush and Hannity. Some really good ones in Dallas, Colorado, California – all over the country.
Most of your blather is exactly that, so I’ll not bother with it. Except to say, you may want to be careful before you start pointing to Hitchens as a source of opinions you agree with. Ever heard of blow back?
But most notably, and "uninformedly" you say:
"Air America – The news story is that Liberal radio has no real "large" market like conservative radio does."
That’s not "news". That’s spin, my friend. In the one major market where AA played interupted, they beat Rush soundly amongst the main target demographic (males between ages 18 – 56, or whatever those ages were). You can go find the *news* article on it yourself, or you can continue to spin like the spinning top that you always are.
