Do any of you besides Patrick B., and me for 15 minutes today, listen to this crap? I was literally shocked by the vile I was hearing. Yes, Limbaugh and Hannity are really far right (I don't listen to them either), but this channel was truly radical. The host (Alex something) was singing the praises of William Ayers and admiring his tactics to promote his agenda. He called supporting the troops bs (they can use this language, and worse on sat radio if you didn't know) because they volunteered to perpetuate the war. Just ragged on soldiers horribly. Even the far-left caller hung up on him at that point. Using adjectives to describe the troops like "sh*#", appears to be even too much for the "far left" as this guy was off the charts. Yeah I know, I'm a bit bias but the Sirius right channel (called "Patriot"....of course; because everyone knows only someone on the right could be patriotic grin ) is nowhere near as radical, at least from what I've heard there. The worst I've seen there is when Hannity comes on...it's at that point I turn the channel. Maybe there's another "right" channel spewing vile as Sirius Left and I haven't come across it, not sure.

I just find it hard to believe there's people out there thinking this way, making a living spewing crap like that, and there's a market for it. Maybe I'm being naive. I know, I can turn the channel...and I did.
