While I have become accustomed to your incorporating your personal political 
views into nearly EVERY post you make (although why you feel that is 
appropriate in this forum I do not know....), I fail to understand why you 
continue to judge other people's character and intelligence by their 
political opinions.  Most people, I would think, concede that a subject like 
politics is something about which reasonable people can disagree, yet you 
continue to characterize anyone who does not share your views as stupid or 
mean-spirited. I am sorry that you are unable to listen to any conservative 
talk show host with any measure of open-mindedness.  You might find that 
there are people on the right and the left who are sometimes capable of 
making valid points. (I also find it interesting that Neal Boortz, a 
Libertarian, is too conservative for you...) 

<<"That" is what conservatives ignore, and the inability to ignore those 
things is why there's no successful liberal talk show host. Also most 
liberals' lack of mean-spiritedness which so clearly permeates the right 
wing. >>

Some people feel that "most liberals'" contempt for the US taxpayer is rather 
mean-spirited.  By the way, I heard the bit with Rush's "Pete Comment" and it 
was clearly "tongue-in-cheek."
