What else could it mean? I thought nothing these idiots did could surprise me, but color me surprised.
This is very shocking, esp. coming from a Republican.
Talk radio can be persuasive, and can also be “over the top” sometimes in the positions that talk show hosts and callers take on issues.
But the point is that there is the exchange of ideas on talk radio. Issues are discussed, and people will agree or disagree, but at least they are thinking about the issues. And they are free to discuss the issues of the day.
The scariest part of talk radio to me is some of those rabid Air America hosts. Their vitriol towards Bush is unbelieveable to me. Yet I would never want to shut them down, because they are expressing opinions, and exercising their freedom of speech.
If Trent Lott has a problem with talk radio, I suggest he go on the air and talk things over. Bill Clinton used to complain about Rush Limbaugh, and Rush responded by inviting Clinton on the show to discuss things.
bottom line — we all have our freedom of speech, in public, in sites like this one, and on talk radio.
Trent, don’t be a crybaby. If so many people on talk radio are wrong about this immigration bill, tell us where they are wrong. And tell us why you are right, persuade us. Don’t just whine about how Congress needs to get this done, and if they can’t, then Congress should go home. How pathetic was that for him to say that.
