So, I wasn't going to weigh in on this again...but... > "Liberals aren't as interested in sitting around listening to other people > who share their views, as conservatives are."
that suggests that liberals by-and-large do not care to listen to others... In my experience that is not true. In fact I would say that if there is one flaw in a forming liberal platform it is that they listen too much and can't form a cohesive strategy. "Liberal" platform problems 1. Everyone's input is just as important as everyone else's (nice in theory, not a good way to run a business and yes, politics is a business) 2. Everyone's position on an issue is valid (same problem) 3. There's too much input. > A liberal on the other hand, who happened across a liberal talk > show host, would be more apt to pause for a moment, yell "You tell em!", > then continue on to the music channels :) In my own experience, I listen to Air America for a few minutes and then think to myself, "how is this better than what Limbaugh does?" A voice that is "equal and opposite" doesn't make for a better listening experience for me. Al Franken is, quite frankly, guilty of the same things he charges O'Reilly and Limbaugh of, he's as much a blowhard as the others... Randi Rhodes is better, but still manages to froth a lot. Hey, maybe there's a demographic that they're trying to hit, but it ain't me... ....then I go and look for music... :-P -- will "If my life weren't funny, it would just be true; and that would just be unacceptable." - Carrie Fisher ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:154689 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
