Chris Baker of KTRH in Houston is a fargin icehole
What a jackass.

He was defending the bush administration for their failed intelligence that sent us to war. He claimed that freedom and giving the Iraqis a right to vote was what we really were doing.

Get this: Said that providing freedom was the only way to fight terrorism!

I called and gave him hell, but he interrupts everytime you get on a point.

Maybe we can all call in some day and harrass the hell out of the little farger.

1. I can just imagine how that conversation went
"Now sir, sir, excuse me. Do you really think we would be better off with Saddam Hussein? Sir, Sir, just answer the question, would we be better off with Saddam Hussein?" Can anyone say loaded question?

5. BINGO!!!
What he said to me was "Sir, sir, sir, I am trying to hel p you sir", but I couldnt get in a word in edgewise to tell him to stop interupting me.

Yep, he acts like a hannity wannabe.

Maybe we should all call in and heckle the hell out of him, like someone start with an anti baker stance and the rest of us chime in agreement.

I hate that asshole.

2. Let's EACH send him a copy of this (his contact info included here):

Tell him you are also sending a copy to his station's advertisers - you are outraged that this station employs anyone who supports this type of trash!

7. I've called his show more than once, only to be left on hold
for 20-30 minutes, or until the show ends. He is such a hannity wannabe.

Why is he so hung up on Channel 2's weather dog? He's always telling the lady that does the weather that she's better than our local weather dog. Stop it! They had an adopt a pet drive for the Humane Society, and they adopted a dog. I think Frank Billingsley wanted a dog, and they figured they could turn it into a publicity stunt. The kids love Radar, why can't Chris Baker talk about something of real importance?

They screen his calls well, if you let the screener know that you disagree, you rarely make it on the air.

8. You have to be sneaky
Like call in and say you've just come from Iraq and support the war.

Then when he calls on you, talk about another topic.

9. Yeah, I've thought of that
I really don't think that I should have to lie in order to get on the air though. After all, he's supposed to be hosting a talk show, where ideas can be exchanged, not his own personal soap box, right?

I have just gotten to the point where I turn the radio off on my way home now. Is it time for the Astros to come back yet?????????
