Howard Stern on fire this morning... Talking about how people are afraid

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

of the Bush administration like they're afraid of the Mafia. Using Disney's fear of Jeb repercussions (not distributing Moore's new movie), FCC intimidation of broadcasting as examples. How this shouldn't even be a Dem/Repub issue, people interested in their freedom of access to information and entertainment should be motivated by all this to vote shrub out.

By the way, he showed how the Arbitron ratings of the Pittsburgh Clear Channel station has gone into the toilet since dropping his show. I wonder what they have on the air now?

This is a great show this morning, because too few are willing to come right out and talk about the fear and intimidation sowed by the administration. And the media are the number one targets of the intimidation, and it's worked!

1. Definitely heavy Mafia-like organization.

And it doesn't help that they have the CIA as back-up singers. Hope this Wilson affair will put an end to that marriage.

2. Stern is just rocking right now and deserves our support

He's not only talking the talking, but he's walking it too. He's even got a link to help donate for John Kerry on his website.

Say what you will about Stern's content on his show, but the guy is ruling right now!!

8. That mouth is finally useful

Never was a big fan, but it's enjoyable to see someone with such a huge base on the warpath against *.

3. Al Capone Would Smile Watching The Bush Shakedown

He would know he was watching a master at work.

4. We should let him know about Lautenberg!

5. Political Mafia!!! That's what we have.

I said that to someone calling for money. They thought the phrase "political mafia" was very appropriate.

7. Goodfellas.

GEORGE (V.O.)
For as long as I could remember I always wanted to
be POTUS. To me, being POTUS was better than being
a gangster.

6. I Heard Him Too

He has enormous courage. I used to listen to Stern years ago and he got a little too disgusting for me. But you know I just turned that dial. No biggy. But after I heard what the Bush Junta was up to, I turned him back on and will back him to the end. Even his rival Imus is on his side. Good Show Stern.
