Another reason to defeat chimpCo.
I recently returned from a vacation in Baja California. As I drove thousands of miles, the radio reception from America came in fairly clear. AM radio is dominated by religion, sports, news breaks at the hour, and 24/7 RW hatespew.

Hatespew is what I remember from elementary school. Basic name calling, melodramatic denunciation of the "other", and ridiculing the "other". Also a determined effort to corral everyone into the same think style. Beating chimp will also send a message that these tactics will not work. If chimp wins, everyone will understand that lying is a wonderful strategy for success. A great lesson for the kids.

All the fellatio from his buddies on AM, on the cable networks, and in print, are coming at no charge to chimp. All hours when the sun shines are devoted to chimp as Jesus, and Kerry as Satan. If a 30 second spot costs $250,000, the free political ads run by the Rushites would be worth trillions.

The republican brand of political warfare is culturally damaging. And I see people mimicking the style in daily life, as they absorb the selfishness that is the cabled into their homes.

Hatespew will be around as long as it is an acceptable form of communication by people in lofty positions. Hannity spews with recklessness, and becomes legitimized by Powell or Rumsfeld appearing on his show.

Just another reason to crush this bunch.

1. I agree. The RW has made it morally and culturally acceptable
to hate. We listen to talk radio on a regular basis and as you channel surf AM radio, it is all the same. Hatespew is the perfect word for it.

They are tearing at the moral fiber of this country and blaming the liberals the entire time.
