Air America: The Playbook: What a Bunch of Left Wing Media Types have to Teach you ..

From a customers' review(there are only 2): "It would not surprise me that the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy was really behind Air America in a bid to drive frazzled liberals to suicides or just extremely-debilitating strokes. The panic and overkill in Al Franken and Randi Rhodes' "comedy" was hilarious in ways I don't think they intended.

Now that Air America has filed for banruptcy and is over $20 million in debt, I wonder if the VRWC is pulling the plug on this diabolical black op a tad too early. "

It isn't too soon for anyone who understands what they were all about. Robert Redford's Sundance channel on Direct TV showed Air America nightly for about a year or two before they showed how bankrupt they really were. Glad to see them soon to be gone.

Proving once again....

Liberals can not succeed in ANYTHING for long, if not funded by TAXPAYERS..

Hell, most of them must have jobs with the Civil Service at some level --- they aren't clear thinking enough to hold a REAL job.

Karl Rove looked long and hard for Franken, Rhodes, Howard Dean, even Alec Baldwin, after all, we can't have the DemocRats look like Zell Miller.

I had actually tried to listen to Randi Rhodes on Air America a few times. I really like to understand where people are coming from, even if I don't agree with them.

Geez, that woman is full of hatred. There's no coherent discussion of issues, or attempt to show how a liberal viewpoint is better. It's just Bush hatred all the time. Instead of any discussion of complicated issues, there are just one-liners, i.e. "Bush lied", "Halliburton got a government contract", and no attempt to provide evidence that supports the point of view. It's all about bashing Bush, one liners by Randi, and quoting one-liners by famous Dems, such as when Hillary said Bush "couldn't find the tallest man in Afghanistan" in not finding bin Laden.

I understand that some liberals have some positions that they can calmly discuss, but there seems to be a hysteria about Bush at Air America that interferes with their thought processes.

And that hard fact shows that their brand of socialism is no different than all the other FAILED ATTEMPTS at socialism -- its biggest flaw, is that it cannot pay for itself, it destroys all the initiative that makes money. Governments produce nothing. And niether does socialism. It never has.

"Leftists have only one business model...non profit."

You neglected to mention: inefficient, incompetent, ineffective, nonproductive, overstaffed, unmanaged, unmeasured, irresponsible, wasteful and unnecessary..

I speak from experience -- having to evaluate a number of "leftist" owned businesses to include as suppliers to comply with Government "guidelines" to utilize these small businesses by the large corporation I worked for.

It was a simple matter to legally justify NOT using most of the names on the "candidate" list....
It was obvious why they were on the list.....
Started with Government loans, in minority (read leftist) areas.
Most were a horrible waste of taxpayer money, and I was not inclined to throw good money after bad.

There is a lot of thought of the radio biggies, that this was put on the air by SOROS and the DNC just as a political ploy...to give Conservative radio, which is mounting daily with audience, a run. Hate and negativity goes just so far.
