4. In Pittsburgh though we have more than our share of brain-washed
Bush backers, two liberal talk show hosts - Lynn Cullen WPTT M-F and Chris Moore on weekends on the Blowhard KDKA (they carry Rush)- have plenty of great liberal callers with fire in the belly. Course they get more than their share of idiots calling from the right that reiterate the Karl Rove talking points. They seem to show up in droves when Rush got bumped by baseball.

We have one other liberal host Mike Romigh in the evenings on the blowhard station (when he's on which is when baseball is off) who gets the most idiotic wingnut callers at night - figure that's cause they're so used to listening to Rush and the two local Rush wannabees all day. When he subs for the wingnut hosts he gets tons of hate calls.

What I love about the more liberal callers is they are all informed, know about PNAC, know the latest on the Iraq spin and that WMD's haven't been found, talk intelligently, debate with the host, etc. All most of the wingnuts can do is be predictable and mostly parrot as loudly and quickly as they can - so the host can't speak over them - the RNC talking points. Hosts have to hit the mute button or hang up on them to get a word in.

Oh and the wannabe Rush hosts talk over and belittle any liberal who calls their show - just like their Oxi-popping hero.
