10. What planet does this guy live on?

The mostly corporate sponsored radio always seems to me to be overly concerned with not rocking the boat. I quit listening to them
a long time ago so maybe they have changed. Having lived through the shit since Reagan I only could wish they have improved. If pulling your head out of your ass is and looking at reality is too progressive we are screwed. Makes me wonder why we ever fought a civil war. The media including NPR has been complicit and been playing the game to normalize fascism. Just in the last year or so we have seen the rights to a common medical procedure and the right of the Federal Government to enforce pollution of wetlands and rivers taken away. All of the media should be screaming. Come to think of it I still sometimes listen to Jazz88 even though I know live in El Paso.

Of course he has bad intentions. Are you kidding? NoRethugFriends Apr 16 #1
