      Poor unfortunates. Singled out arbitrarily.

      Oh yes, and who visited China? I believe that was Nixon.

        Last week, I visited Chinatown.

        Had some Kung Pao chicken. Very tasty

        Oh, and the fact that I visited saved a million babies from starving. Completely changed the town overnight.

          Reading the OP, all I have to ask is when the **** was the last time a Democrat pandered to any base?




          Last I checked, there were 88.


          Which is around 400 stations less than Limbaugh alone. Not to mention that Limbaugh gets about 10 million more listeners a week than the entire Air America lineup combined. And they're losing their flagship New York station at the end of August.

          Yes, they're doing quite well.

          BTW, we really need a Kool-Aid man smilie. Would be great for partisan hacks like Emperor Fabulous...

            Oh, and nothing of the fact that Air America has gotten 10-fold the stations since its inception?

            Pity, I was looking forward to arguing that.

              How many years passed before the last visitor to Chinatown and your blessed visit?

                Who knows?

                My question is...what exactly did that visit do? I mean, besides the obvious camera flashes.

                Last I checked, it was Clinton who made China the #1 trade partner.

                But this is all irrelevant, I think, because I thought we were discussing the Middle East?

                  Actually, I'm no partisan. There are a lot of topics I will agree/work with rightists on. I'm not afraid of compromise (remember that word?) I try to get all sides of an issue first. That's why my top three Favorites are DailyKos, the Drudge Report, and the BBC.

                  However, I rarely agree with you. That makes me partisan?

                    Look, I'll admit that Air America does not have the listenership that they should to be a successful brand. That doesn't mean they don't have listeners (which they have), nor does that mean they aren't growing (which they are.)

                    Talk radio has been a bastion of the right for years. Until you see a movement by the progressive side towards talk radio, you won't see the numbers for Air America that Rush, Bill, etc do.

                    Then again, [hack mode] we don't need to hear about our position as much as the minority does theirs [/hack mode].

                      They seem to think they're the base of the "real" Democratic party.

                      Oh, and Rush had that 3 years after he started?


                      You don't find it a little humiliating for Air America when one man can get quadruple their entire network's ratings?

                      However, I rarely agree with you. That makes me partisan?


                      No, just stupid.

                          Number 1: The Democratic Party's base is the American worker. When was the last time they were pandered to?

                          Number 2: So does Howard Stern. What's your point?

                          Number 3: No, YOU'RE stupid! (edit: what happened to the angry tongue?!)

                            Kos and his progressive bretheren represent the American worker, or claim to at any rate. And there sure were a lot of Dems at YearlyKos pandering to them...

                              Since when does one event = base pandering? There is no consistent message from the Democratic leadership going to that side. In fact, the establishment is doing everything in their power to keep Lieberman, while the "base" (as you just called them) want the Bush-lover O-U-T.

                              If anything, they're the anti-establishment that the OP is looking for.
