A stunning visualization of our divided Congress

66. thanks for all that, except i'd disagree on a couple of things

for one thing it's hard to blame the lack of liberal talkers on anything other than the overwhelmingly dominant, subsidized, and well protected rw monopoly of all the major talk stations.

the notion that 95% of americans who would listen to talk radio would prefer the condescending ignorance and lies of the limbaughs and hannitys and their wannabes is basically an insult to americans but is acceptable to many on the left because the right has been allowed to sell this market-based rationalization to people who ignore rw radio with a passion.

liberal talkers have shown they can beat the liars in head to head competition (hartmann, schultz, rhodes, and others), which is why the right makes sure it can't happen much.

also, i have no problem blaming democrats and the left for ignoring this massively successful PSYOPS, but it's not because they like what it does to them and how often it beats them, it's because i know they have no clue that's what's kicking their ass. i've talked with them in all sorts of positions of activism and politics and they nearly all dismiss or greatly underestimate rw radio, and that's generally because they don't want to listen to it and they can't read it or analysis of it- it's invisible- the perfect weapon.
