Message to Republican Pundits and Radio Talkers

Dear Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Nugent, and the rest of the RW media,

First of all, I want to congratulate you on a job well done in convincing about 47% of Americans to support regressive social and fiscal policies this past election cycle. It never ceases to amaze me how you guys (since 1980) have been able to persuade millions of working-class and middle-income Americans to support lower taxes for a small handful of citizens, at the expense of services that are designed to help millions of people who struggle to make ends meet.

However, since your party decisively lost the last presidential election, there is no need to continue trying to drag Pres. Obama's name through the gutters. He was re-elected decisively and is here to stay for 4 more years, so you can stop scaring your viewers and listeners with lies about him wanting to ban all guns, being a foreigner, a communist, a fascist, and comparing him to Hitler and Stalin (two people who happened to be on opposite sides of the ideological spectrum). How about you propose some decent ideas for a change, that will actually help a wider array of people than just the Monopoly Men of society? Enough fear-mongering.

Sincerely,
Jamaal510
