Election 2012

[Adak]

Seriously?

We're supposed to choose our President from advice by a shock jock, who has become famous for saying things unwelcome in polite company?

And who is Mr. DJ beholding to? Let's see -- oh! the FCC, by golly! Who could yank Mr. DJ's license, and his job would be ALL GONE.

But I'm SURE Mr. DJ is COMPLETELY UNBIASED - oh sure!

He knows about a Mormon, like he knows about the Higgs Bosun particle, and why it gives us mass.

I don't follow Howard Stern much at all, but I know enough that I know he made the jump to satellite radio a few years back. The hoopla at the time made a big point of saying that because it was a subscriber only service, the FCC had no jurisdiction. And oh boy what was Howard Stern going to do once there was nothing to hold him back?

Howard Stern doesn't remotely care about the FCC. Even when he was on the radio, he didn't care.

Of course, he cared. That's his "shtick", that he doesn't care.

Howard's no dummy, and he knows the dear old President has an enemies list. If you get on it, you WILL have an IRS audit, and any other nuisance the fed's can give you - which is usually plenty.
Just like Joe the Plumber.

Howard does NOT want to be on the President's bad side - and he's a liberal (definitely!) anyway. So why would he have ANYTHING good to say about Romney?

Would Romney be a guest on Howard's show, or approve of it personally? No.
Would Romney supporters be subscribers to Howard's show? No.

Howard's an ass, but he's certainly not a stupid ass. He knows which side of the toast has the butter on it.

This shows you are a total idiot.

A complete and total idiot.

If Stern is trying to avoid getting on lists, why would he say anything at all? The election looks pretty close right now. Why would he risk getting on Romney's enemies list?

(I don't think either man has an enemies list, but I'm just throwing your own "logic" back in your face.)

WHY WOULD HOWARD STERN SAY ANYTHING AT ALL?

<Holy Molly!>

HOWARD is THE *MOUTH*. He talks endlessly about anything or anybody who is controversial!! Howard would LOVE to get acknowledged for being on Romney's enemies list (if Romney has one, which I seriously doubt). THAT is what makes Howard -- HOWARD! I'm not sure you understand Howard Stern's niche in life.

But Howard would NOT want to be on Obama's enemies list. Obama's people are the one's Howard wants to keep. They want to hear "crotch" and "snatch" and such, on the air. Mormons? Not nearly so much. I believe Howard would starve to death as a shock jock in Salt Lake City. Yeah, I'm sure he'd starve.

And when Howard was on regular radio and TV, it was difficult to always avoid the guy. I have to say he IS a smart guy, with a real talent - he's twisted it up, but it's still a talent.

I would love for you to come back in 6 months after the election and re-read the stuff you are writing. It's hysterical the knots you are tying yourself in.

Tell that to all the people who have been harassed by some federal agency, immediately after having a difference of opinion, with Obama.

Start with Joe the Plumber, and work your way on up through his term in office. IRS, SEC, FTC, ATF, Dept. of Justice, etc. They've all been used on different citizens who have not agreed with Obama.

Latest example was the whistle blower on the "Fast and Furious" guns to Mexico idiocy by the FBI and ATF. Although we have a law to protect whistle blowers, the agent who blew the whistle, has just been fired by the agency.

If you embarrass Obama's administration by telling the truth, you pay.

I think I understand your logic here Adak.

Yes, just exactly as seriously as the legions of zombie dittoheads who get all they know from that other Mr DJ, El Rushbaugh, Rush Limbaugh. Because we all know he's not beholden to those who provide his "obscene profits", yeah. He's COMPLETELY UNBIASED.

Aren't you guilty of some kind of ideological miscegenation having even admitted to listening to Howard Stern? What's the penalty for that? Or are you looking for asylum?
