What Michael Delgiorno says on a daily basis on the Nashville powerhouse talk radio station 99.7 WTN is so offensive that it can make your insides ache. If you’re a patriot, you know it is offensive. If you’re rational, you know it’s offensive. If you’re a real Christian, you know it is offensive.
Yet, day after day, week after week, he gets away with calling the President of the United States the ‘antichrist.’
These are just two instances of many. First, on August 19, 2009 he said:
MICHAEL DELGIORNO: Like I said, he’s the most failed one-term president or he’s the antichrist. But I can tell you this right now, he’s pro-Palestinian, he’s anti-Israel, he’s anti-Christian. That much I know for sure.

Then, on August 20, he said:
MICHAEL DELGIORNO: Ken, on dating.
CALLER: I was just going to say that even if Tommy is a complete moron all he’s gotta do is the exact same thing Barack Obama did and he’s in the saddle.
MICHAEL DELGIORNO: Ice cream? Oh, I’m thinking literally on his first date with Michelle.
CALLER: Heh heh heh heh.
MICHAEL DELGIORNO: Take her for ice cream and reveal that he’s the antichrist.Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.
I’ve been trying to analyze why this is especially offensive and also work on a message to counter it, but I had nuthin’.
So I asked several friends of mine who self-identify as Christians.
One friend suggested I read “Naming the Antichrist: The History of an American Obsession (Paperback)” (it’s on my wish list) of which publishers weekly wrote:
While the word “antichrist” – the figure who ushers in the apocalypse of Christian end-time – appears but briefly in the Bible (1 and 2 John), the term has been all too frequently used throughout history by one group as a means of vilifying another group that appears to threaten the accusing group’s worldview. Fuller, professor of religious studies at Bradley University, argues that naming the antichrist became a prevalent custom in the U.S. first because of the Puritans’ apocalyptic tradition and subsequently because of feelings of vulnerability fanned by Native Americans and later by waves of immigrants who seemed to threaten the establishment of God’s kingdom on earth. Fuller robustly explores the writings of those who at various and sundry times have railed against Catholics, Freemasons, and Jews (and even rock music and bar codes, for that matter) and seen them all as signs of the beast from the sea. He offers cogent psychological and sociological explanations for the hold of the idea of the antichrist upon the American imagination. If those explanations do not seem quite conclusive, however, it is because the extraordinarily arcane reasoning in naming the antichrist, so ably discussed here, ultimately itself escapes explanation.
So that made me feel a bit better. I mean, if a professor of religious studies can’t explain it then how can I?
Then my friend said:
DelGiorno’s attitude is responsible for 2,000 years of religious warfare. During the Reformation, Martin Luther called the Pope the Antichrist, sparking a feud between Catholics and Protestants that lasted for centuries. The Pope, in response, excommunicated Luther.
A certain subgroup of Evangelicals are rabidly Zionist, believing that the restoration of Israel (with the Old Testament borders!) is essential, and that all non-Jews need to be cast out of the region.
To get honest about this… Fundamentalist Christians are interested in starting a war on Islam, and they are afraid and angry that Barack Hussein Obama is trying to stop them.
This kind of religious elitism divides Christians, and creates the kinds of schisms, divisiveness, and hatred that is condemned repeatedly in Scripture.
So DelGiorno is part of a elitist fringe group of extremist faux-Christians who will stop at nothing to further their own agenda, which is to more quickly usher in the second coming (the rest of us be damned.) Or, as as Josh Marshall puts it, “because its existence will hasten the apocalypse when God will vanquish the Jews en masse in hellfire and turn Israel into a vast evangelical theme park is to usher in the end of the world and ensure that they go to heaven at the expense of the rest of us.”
Fringe? Check. Extremist? Check. Selfish? Check. Un-Christian? Check. Elitist? Check, check and double-check. Mr. DelGiorno is all of these.
But how does he get away with it? And any theories on why his advertisers are irresponsible enough to still support him?
Mary, is it possible for a liberal to defend PresBO without mentioning Bush? Have you ever heard me stand behind anything Bush did? I’ve never mentioned him in my posts, until now.
Beth, you are SO smart.. I hope when I grow up my IQ can be as high as yours. I hope you came back to read that, considering you are “SO done”.
Finally, eldano, someone with the gaul to say what Obama has done..
Expansion of S-CHIP… paid for by a increase on cigarette tax, which (you said yourself) smokers aren’t smoking as much, so, who’s paying for this? Also, most smokers are families below the poverty line, so who are you trying to help here? I’m not against children having insurance, but I’m against someone other than their parents paying for it. The “poor” people in America were already covered by medicaid, this was only a step toward socialized medicine. That’s not good for our country. Strike One.
Freeing some dubious detainees from Guantanamo Bay… you are talking about enemy combatants here, NOT talking about someone who had a speeding ticket or ran a red light. These were terrorists that their home countries didn’t even want back. These are BAD people, not perfect angels that we picked up. You are crazy if you think that was good for our country, and you didn’t elaborate on “how” that was good, so I assume you just had to type something there. Strike Two.
Removal of Stem cell research ban… embryonic stem cell research is not needed anymore. We don’t have to kill babies anymore. Stem cells can be used that are isolated from other places than the embryo. The point is, he’s using federally funded programs to promote stem cell research, and that shouldn’t be necessary since we have companies that have the resources to do this on their own. This was a ploy to retaliate at President Bush, and nothing more. Strike Three. (your first batter is out)
Passage of economic stimulus ( I wish it would have been bigger and more targeted to long-term improvements)… I agree, spending billions of dollars from the future for the stupid things in this bill was a great idea. Just kidding, I don’t agree. President Obama’s idea of stimulus is bailing out the irresponsible. I would list the entire bill, but let me pick the good ones..
-$4.5 million for butterfly gardens, $1 million for frisbee golf course, $5 billion for political groups like ACORN, $18 million to crush BRAND new cars (no I’m not talking about cash for clunkers, that was more of our money), $246 million for hollywood producers to buy a motion picture film, $600 million to buy hybrid vehicles for government employees (gas prices went down)…. and the list goes on and on.
Strike Four.
Preventing the collapse of two of the Big 3 auto makers… Ford didn’t take bailout money. They didn’t fail on their own accord. GM and Chrysler were both given huge sums of tax payer money to keep them from going bankrupt. In case you missed the news, they both went through a bankrupt restructuring, and the tax payers’ money was wasted… just thrown away. That’s what happens with most of our money the government spends. Strike Five.
Giving science the respect it deserves in national policy and leadership positions… I suppose you are talking about Global Warming? Because I know you aren’t talking about the scientific proof that a fetus is a life.. that hasn’t been taking into consideration. This is all over one degree, that has corrected. It’s 76 degrees here in Nashville, and it’s summertime. I’m glad he fixed the problem so quickly. Strike Six.
Progress on Cap and Trade Emissions reduction (I wish the proposal was more aggresive)… do you really think that higher taxes on producers is a good idea? I mean seriously, how can you expect this to not have a detrimental impact on the nations energy sector? This is a ridiculous attempt to promote the agenda that we can save the world, by taxing big business. The truth is, we already do what we can to curb pollution, and until other countries in the world follow suite. We are spinning our wheels. Strike Seven. (That’s two outs, and you’re working on your third batter now.)
Movement towards health care reform (I wish it would move faster)… you and President Obama both wish it would move faster. Everyday the support goes down a little bit more. Everyday we realize what is really happening to our country. PresBO’s approval rating is down to 50%, and it’s dropping fast. This is the main reason. The country doesn’t want socialized medicine. Strike Eight.
I can’t believe you have the nerve to say this is the vision our founding fathers had for this country. They wanted small government, that is held accountable by the citizens. This is not a democracy, it is a republic. You must have missed that when you were reading the constitution. Or, have you read the constitution?
The only “change you can believe in”, is change you are responsible for. If anyone tells you otherwise, in a capitalist society, they have just slapped you in the face. If you don’t wake up to that individually, reset and reform your expectations and the role “personal responsibility” plays in your life – you will fail. If constituents don’t wake up to that at the enterprise level, America will.
Wake up.
Okay, you actually semi-addressed a couple of my points. So A), Chrysler went bankrupt. They did not fold. They were sold and the government of the United States is no longer responsible for them. Yes, money was spent, but I would argue that the actual result was better than what was likely if there was no intervention. Ditto GM. And kudos to Ford for fighting through on their own.
B) I promise you that overall health care in this country is not better than that in other countries. People keep track of this. We rate somewhere in the 30s, if I remember correctly. You cite death rate from cancer. There are a number of ways to respond to this
1) Our country could place a premium on curing cancer. This is not a bad thing. But it could be sub-optimizing. We could be focusing so much on cancer that other diseases are killing us instead. Personal note: a dear fried of the family was just diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. He’s in his mid 80s. He probably won’t survive the necessary chemo. We all have a stake in this.
2) Perhaps other countries keep their citizens healthier, so that they die from cancer rather than, say, hospital inquired infections. This is one random disease, I totally admit I’m guessing, I’m just trying to explain why saying “we die less from cancer” isn’t a great way to prove that our health care system is better.
3) Here’s one that might really get you: perhaps all of our anti-tobacco legislation has curbed smoking, so people get fewer smoking-related cancers! I don’t know if this is true at all, it just made me laugh to think that our government intrusion is helping you make your point that we’re better.
As to your emissions arguments, there is currently a free rider problem with carbon emissions and this bill will attempt to place the burden of containing the problem to those who cause it. I commend your concern for taxpayers. Maybe we could help lessen the potential financial impact by ensuring that they have health insurance that will actually cover them in case of emergency?
They sent millions of dollars to Chrysler to keep them from going bankrupt, and what happened? They went bankrupt! The government estimated that medicare would cost us about 11 billion dollars come 1990. Guess what it was. It was close to 120 billion! Cap and Trade will cost the taxpayers millions extra for everything we purchase. Canada and England both have health care plans. They do not work as good as ours. The death rate for cancer in both countries is much higher than here. If you need a colostomy in Canada, there is a 6 month waiting period. (You need one to find out if you have colon cancer). After the wait, if you do have colon cancer, there is a 8 week wait to start treatment.You breath out Co2. The plants use the CO2. How can CO2 be bad? If it is so bad, the people that think it is killing our planet should sacrifice themselves. Call Al Gore too!
Very funny, eldano!
And don’t forget the withdrawl of troops from Iraq – another campaign promise that he is delivering on…
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2009-08-30-withdrawal_N.htm
what happened to this nice, little blog? Is Del Giorno so evil that he can even corrupt this comment section? (Note, you may not find it funny, but that was a joke).
Rather than harp on typos (I commit many of them myself), or writing someone off because of their belief system I will give my answers to the repeated question: what has Obama done to make this country better. I would appreciate honest repsonses backed up by reason or fact.
Expansion of S-CHIP
Freeing some dubious detainees from Guantanamo Bay
Removal of Stem cell research ban
Passage of economic stimulus ( I wish it would have been bigger and more targeted to long-term improvements)
Preventing the collapse of two of the Big 3 auto makers
Giving science the respect it deserves in national policy and leadership positions
Progress on Cap and Trade Emissions reduction (I wish the proposal was more aggresive)
Movement towards health care reform (I wish it would move faster)
You can say that he’s failed on the last two by not getting them through yet, but I’d point out that he IS delivering on a campaign promise here: that he wouldn’t just push through the liberal agenda, that he’d try to involve opponents to craft a more well-rounded bill. Trying to represent all of his constituents rather than just those who voted for him? That sounds like respect for democracy and the vision of the founding fathers to me.
I reject your premise that President Obama is destroying this country with debt, Ryan. And I have to ask you, did President Bush ever listen to Dave Ramsey?
SO done with you guys. Good luck, Mary! I hope you make A LOT of money.
Ryan, very well said. I think it is useless to talk common sense to these people. If they had any (common sense), they would not be liberals. Beth probably went to a liberal school, where she got a degree in something that is relatively useless. It is not her fault that she was indoctrinated by a communist professor. They will not answer the question about what good has Hussein Obama done since he was elected. They will not comment abut the fact that he spent more than all the other presidents put together, in the first three months. They will not comment about the idiot that OB picked as the science adviser. This idiot believes that babies are not human. Here is a quote from his book. “The fetus, given the opportunity to develop properly before birth, and given the essential early socializing experiences and sufficient nourishing food during the crucial early years after birth, will ultimately develop into a human being.â€
Mary, I addressed your post, and you didn’t respond to what I said. The whole article is based on two quotes that you just pulled from nothing.
Mary, It’s not ok for DelGiorno to lie to further his agenda, but it is okay for the President of the United States of America to do so? That’s who you need to focus on, the one who is destroying our country and doesn’t stand for the constitution. I know that’s going to be hard for you, since you’ve bought into the garbage already. It seems to me as much as you listen to 99.7 you could at least get something out of it. Hopefully you listen to Dave Ramsey and you understand the importance of getting out of debt. Oh, no, debt is ok, right? $9-10 trillion is no problem in your eyes.
Mary, for the third time… What has Pres BO done since he took office that has improved our country/economy? It seems you can’t read or respond to that question, and I don’t understand why.
Beth, you are very intelligent… you can pick one incorrectly spelled word and make a whole post of how you “don’t know where to start with us.” I can help you out on where to start. Start with how you feel about the current situation we are in, and how we got here. Then let me know what is the most logical solution to how to correct the problem. Is it giving less than credit worthy people incentive to buy homes and cars they can’t afford? Is it to raise taxes on the people that employ most of the workers in the US, hindering their ability to do more hiring? Is it aborting babies and doing so with federally funded programs (and calling yourself a Christian in the process)? Is it running on a platform of pulling out of an “endless war,” and keeping the same timetable as the previous administration? Is it increasing social programs that got us into this mess (welfare, medicaid, etc)? Or is it something else? Please, enlighten me.. because I’m too stupid to understand.
Yeah – that would DEFINITELY go above their heads, Mary.
The best art of the Snopes.com article, Beth, is the last part…
“The Biblical citation most relevant to this issue might not be one from Revelation, but rather this passage from the Gospel of Matthew:
‘Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.’â€
Ha! It’s so relevant but not in the way DelGiorno’s defenders think.
Thanks for posting this direct cut and paste from Michael DelGiorno’s Facebook page, Osama. But didn’t you take the time to read that Mary had already posted this and made comments about it?
Born from an atheist white woman to an Arab muslim,
no origional birth certificate,
addresses the world from Berlin (as a US candidate),
addresses the Muslim world as President,
20 years of “Liberation Theology” at Trinity under wright,… Read More
mentored by pro Palistinian radicals,

pushes two state solution….
I feel slightly ill even posting this because anyone who thinks for himself doesn’t need to see it and those who do not won’t believe it anyway. However, here goes:
http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/antichrist.asp
Thank you, Beth. I appreciate your good thoughts. The most interesting thing about the commentors is how they still refuse to acknowledge the actual content of this post (except for Eugene and Jeff and I’d like them to show me where in the bible or in Christian teaching does it show similarities between President Obama and the antichrist) and, subsequently, the content of Michael DelGiorno’s show (as well as his character). Instead they go on the attack against me, the president, liberals, etc.. Because of this I can only assume they agree that lying to further your agenda is OK.
So I will ask again, what is the “antichrist” or the “spirit of the antichrist” exactly and where in the Christian bible or in Christian teaching is it described?
And how can Michael DelGiorno be considered a responsible broadcaster when he goes on the air every day and furthers his agenda with lies and fear?
Oh and one more thing…
To Anthony: you do not get to define what it means to be a Christian. Sorry.
Honestly, Mary, I don’t know how you stay calm and rational with these people. I read their posts and don’t have any clue where to START with them, which is why I resort to calling them out the low hanging fruit – grammar and spelling – which is completely counterproductive and immature on my part. It is just exhausting to even think about trying to use reason or logic with them. God BLESS you for what you do everyday – on the air and on your site. I admire you.
How do you breate a law, Anthony? Do you mean berate or create? Just curious – can’t always understand your language – thought it might be a new word.
Ryan, you are so right. I am also a fan of Michael. How can you people claim to be Christians when you support everything about Obama. Do a little research. Ohio could not breate a law against infanticide until Obama started his campaign, because he kept killing the bill.
I have listened to Mr. Delgiorno a few times, and I have heard him say, “I don’t know if Obama is the antichrist, but he does have the spirit of antichrist” on more than one occasion. I, for one, agree. He DOES have the spirit of antichrist.
He is ruining our country.
Mary, you listen to alot of his show to not find it appealing.
I didn’t agree with all he was saying about Ted Kennedy, I think the deceased deserve a little respect, no matter what kind of garbage their lives consisted of.
I must ask.. do you really think everyone deserves prosperity, no matter their work ethic? That’s my problem with the liberal theology. You think someone deserves everything the next person has, and that its the government’s job to provide that. Steal from the rich, give to the poor (oh wait, less fortunate). Our founding fathers would roll over in their graves if they could see where we are now.
As for your question, I am a Christian. I am a father, I am a small business owner, and I’m a patriot. I believe in the constitution, the sanctity of life and marriage, I believe in our republic, and I believe that our great country will prevail no matter the direction the current administration tries to take it.
You still didn’t answer my question. What has President Obama done for our country since he took office? It should be the easiest question I have asked, because you support everything he does.
Ryan – I am a liberal. I believe in fairness, equality, opportunity, prosperity, and security for all and NOT just a select few who believe exactly as I do. That’s the kind of person I am.
You?
Oh my God, Ryan. You are defending DelGiorno against his irresponsibility by accusing ME of not talking about real news and only talking about people? ME?!?! You are deluded. Did you hear him talk about Ted Kennedy this week?
Oh right. He was only “kidding” and that makes it all OK.
He is an irresponsible broadcaster because all he does is attempt to prop up his argument by using lies and fear.
Let’s leave aside for a moment that the following statements by “Jeff” are either lies or gross and negligent exaggerations. For now I only have one question:
-born from an atheist white woman to an Arab muslim
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-no original birth certificate
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-addresses the world from Berlin (as a US candidate)
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-addresses the Muslim world as President
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-20 years of “Liberation Theology†at Trinity under Wright
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-mentored by pro Palistinian radicals
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-apologizes to muslim world
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-send billions to Palistine
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-denounces America as a Christian nation
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-claims Sermon on the Mount is his text/inspiration for Gay marriage
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-wants to negotiate with Iran (terrorists)
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
-demand Israel stop building in west bank, and pushes two state solution….
And where in the bible or from Christian teaching does that mean an “antichrist?”
And DelGiorno didn’t say “Antichrist like.” He said, he is the antichrist.
Eric, Getting all your news from one person, like your brother for instance, is like a giant game of telephone. How can you be sure that what he is telling you is factually correct? He may mean well, but like every other news source, he brings his own bias and life experiences to how he shares news with you and what news he shares with you.
Also, do you think we live in a historical vacuum? Are you saying that what President Bush did in office for 8 years is having zero effect on the state of the nation? That on January 21, 2009 everything that happened previously was magically erased and we started off with a clean slate?
And I can see by your comments in another post that you have no interest in a real answer to your question as to “what Barack Obama has done right,” so I will spare myself the keystrokes.
So, do you think that Michael DelGiorno is acting responsibly when he goes on the air with a full 100,000 watts of power and calls Barack Obama the “antichrist?”
idgaf, You know, every time I spoke about what I disliked about George W. Bush, and despite the fact that I don’t believe he was fairly elected, I still referred to him as President Bush. Basic patriotic courtesy.
What has barry and the marxist that surround him done that has worked?
They aren’t prosecuting the panthers but are looking to prosecute the CIA for blowing smoke in a guys face.
Yup we got change alright but it is not what most expected.
Mary, I suppose you missed my point about not having anything good to say about how PresBO has helped our country.. because you certainly didn’t address that.
Anti-christ is one of many things the President has been called, and you picked two ridiculous quotes and ran with them. The first quote you assume he is calling him the anti-christ, but in reality he was calling him a failed one term President (Gallup’s poll says only two Presidents’ approval rating has dropped to 50% before November of the first year.. Ford and Clinton). The second quote he was joking with a caller. Something you probably don’t get on your show since 1. hardly anyone listens, and 2. no one that listens has a sense of humor..
You are on the air two hours per week? DelGiorno is on a real radio station fifteen hours per week, and you couldn’t find anything better (or worse) to say about him?
And yes, you have a right to say whatever you want to say. I completely support that. It’s just sad, as a talk show host, you can’t talk about real news.. you have to talk about people.
Small people talk about people, average people talk about things, great people talk about ideas..
Mary, what kind of person are you?
Ryan, Thanks for stopping by and getting to know Liberadio(!). But, like you do with everything else, you used the talking points you get from fringe right-wing talk radio to make your point. And you are wrong.
Liberadio(!) is not part of a “progressive station.” Nor are we close to being shut down.
And, if you believe in free speech so much, why are you so concerned with what comes out of my mouth? Don’t I have a right to say what I want?
Ryan, And you have your head so far up fringe right-wing talk radio that you can’t see the irresponsibility of spreading a message using lies and fear.
As you can read (maybe), I never said DelGiorno didn’t have a right to be on the radio saying what he wants. I said that what he says is irresponsible broadcasting.
And (this is important so pay attention), just as DelGiorno has a right to say what he wants on the radio no matter how irresponsible it is, I have just as much right to say what I want to call him out on the lies and fear he uses to further his agenda.
idgaf, those questions have been asked and answered. Next.
Shane, The absolute beauty of this country is that we all have a right to live here – not matter what our belief system is. DelGiorno has a right to his beliefs, but the way in which he shares them is irresponsible, i.e. propping them up through lies and fear.
In fact, you tell me one thing that Obama has done right since he has been in office. If you can, I’ll buy you a drink.
I do believe that liberals are now the minority. It seems that Obama is turning this country upside down. As I have said before, he has had plenty of chances to turn things around. Instead he got us into more debt. What’s with that? And don’t blame Bush for any of it, because it’s Obama’s fault.
And way to go Ryan. I never thought anyone would speak the truth. Thank you for what you said.
For your information, MARY, I don’t watch or listen to Rush Limbaugh. I get my news from other sources, such as my brother, who happens to work on Wall Street. As I’ve said before, I hardly ever watch the news. I don’t have the time. I do work, you know. I don’t just sit around and wait for the government to pay me, like some people. So I have no idea what Rush Limbaugh has to say about all of this.
Oh.. I forgot to address the “does anyone know how he gets away with it, and why his advertisers support him”.. question.
What is liberadio? I’ve never even heard of your show. The only way you got any attention from me was by talking about DelGiorno..
You see.. your station is probably close to being shut down, as most of the progressive stations are. You know why? Because no one listens. Even the left wing idiots can’t stand to listen to the garbage you liberals spew. You can’t talk about anything real that PresBO is doing to help our country, so you degrade yourself to talking about other talk show hosts.
I guarantee you won’t hear DelGiorno bad mouthing you, even with the idiocracy you spoke of him.

Yeah, I agree… “anti-christ” like
I am a fan of DelGiorno… and a supporter of Israel. I’m also a supporter of our constitution, and our freedom from government control.
You people here obviously have your head so far up your own rear ends that you can’t see what Obama is doing to our country.
DelGiorno has every right to be on the radio saying what he wants to say. Remember, this is a free country. I know, you liberals only agree with free speech when it’s spewing what you believe, but that doesn’t mean it’s right.
We need less government, not more. You people that think government is the answer to every problem you have need to get off your lazy butt and be responsible.. FOR YOURSELF.
I am no fan of DelGiorno and avoid him on a regular basis but what else can you call one that thinks of himself as the messiah and is dismantling this country piece by piece and throwing gasoline on the Israeli/Arab conflict.
Obama is a big mystery and no one bothered to ask him the questions he should have been asked and produced the records he should have produced like his school records, birth certificate and how he got from BO to Barry Santoro and back again.
Wow. Glad to see that someone has broached this subject. I catch him on from time to time. The whole station is scary. I like Dave Ramsey, but then they have DelGiorno and Michael Savage spew their small-minded venom and it just makes me sad that Dave is on that station. I started boycotting all advertisers on that station long ago. Phil Valentine is not very smart, but at least he makes an attempt to provide rational debate. I really wish all of the right wing party people who believe and want a Theocracy would go start their own country somewhere so the rest of us could truly be free (from their poison).
Martin, If I don’t learn 5 Bible verses will that make me any less American? You might not think so, but Mr. DelGiorno does. So, no, I won’t be making that effort.
Thanks, Blayne! Will check them out.
Eric, Please, I beg you, turn off the Rush Limbaugh and get some actual news in your diet. Everything you write comes directly from the guy running things on your side – a three-time divorced oxycontin addict.
Oh and by the way, you might want to retract your first statement. We never condoned labeling President Bush anything but what he was – incompetent.
You guys weren’t complaining when people on your side were calling Bush the antichrist or fascist or any other “offensive” names for that matter. You’re just jealous because Obama hasn’t done jack shit to boost the economy. Spend, spend, spend. That’s all he’s done since he’s been in office. And what have we got to show for it? A lousy economy. Obama has had plenty of chances to turn things around. Instead he is spending our hard-earned tax dollars for ridiculous shit like cleaning out marshes in Florida. So if you think Obama is really doing a good job, you live in a fantasy land. And I say TAX CUTS FOR EVERYONE!!!!
He’s getting scarier by the day. PLEASE join our Facebook group to get him off the air. We need numbers to go after his advertisers!
