I am all electioned out

[Glennfs]

It seems this thing has been going forever. The last few days I listened to rw radio.

If you listen to rw radio Trump is the greatest has an overwhelming lead and Harris is scum.

If you listen to lw radio Harris is the greatest hascan overwhelming lead and Trump is scum.

Then when either campaign says or does something stupid the other campaign claims it is the most shocking thing they have ever heard or seen.

Of course rw radio claims that Trump is amazing and inspirational. While lw radio claims that Harris is amazing and inspirational.

Thank goodness that Stern finally got the go woke go broke message and gave up talking politics and went back to good old fashion inappropriate humor

Politics on the radio would be part of the problem if the Internet hadn't rendered them a fringe format. The radio is for propaganda, not discussion. Civilization learned that hard lesson in the runup to WWII when everyone discovered the true content dictated by the medium. Radio is a much more participatory medium than anything else before social media. It by nature riles people up, like social media. When people learned that about radio the hard way, Herbert Hoover (not exactly a flaming liberal) started real regulation. That's when the precursor of the FCC started cracking down on programming and fairness.

Then St. Ronald threw out the baby with the bath water.

My favorite is guys like Joe Scarborough. Who obviously was only a conservative for fun and profit and today is a liberal for the same reason.

Years ago I went home on a Thursday and Ed Schultz was a slightly left leaning moderate. When I returned to work on the following Tuesday he was a fire breathing liberal to the left of Bernie Sanders.

The same is probably true of Hannity. Those guys have replaced crooked preacher's in the media.

[ZoWie]

Crooked preachers got on the wrong side of the FRC/FCC for a long time. Nothing substantial happened until several of them, notably "Doc" Brinkley, built super-power megawatt transmitters with gain antennas just over the border in Mexico. Brinkley got political in the runup to WWII, and started pushing Hitler instead of fake goat testicle operations. In those days, ruining people's brains got the government (at that time) a lot more interested than ruining their balls. (Now the balls would get more attention, since brains are considered subversive.)

Now of course, since Ray Gun and his executive producers, anything goes. The difference is that if you start a radio station that spews left wing propaganda all day, the power structure will organize companies to pull their advertising and you'll be trying to pay your salaries and electric bills from a lemonade stand by any other name. Been there, seen that. Meanwhile the companies compete to get their ads onto right wing media. See a difference? Money makes the world go round.......

Prior to the internet my district was democratic and John Spratt our Congressman for life. He probably voted against the democratic party 25pct of the time in votes which mattered. They being defined as votes where his ballot could effect the outcome.

Then came the internet about the same time he became third inline and had to vote party line 100pct of the time. That was his last term.in office.

No internet and he could have been like Tom Daschal and been a conservative at home and liberal in DC.

No internet and he would not had to toe the party line on every vote.

So now we have one of the worst representatives in DC Ralph Norman. Who I voted for because the democratic party ran a DEI candidate who was completely out of touch with our district.

You voted for a man that wanted the military takeover of our Constitutional Republic.

The democratic candidate is an extreme left wing liberal.
Quite the Sophie's choice

It helps to know the checks and balances will control the evil person you voted for. There’s that

Oh, what bullshit. You think anyone on the left is extreme. You said Obama was extreme. He wasn't. You said Biden was extreme. He wasn't. Hell, you said Hillary was extreme. She wasn't.

This is the greatest Halloween election cartoon ever!

Michigan has cia candidate versus a fbi/homeland security candidate running for its senate seat and its ugly commercials back and forth every 5 minutes all day and night. Its quite Orwellian.

You didn't have to vote for the man you say you wouldn't ever vote for again. No one forced you.

[gounion]

What bullshit. If there were REALLY checks and balances, then the person who demanded the ending of our Constitutional Republic would have been removed from office at the very least, never to be allowed to run again.

[Glennfs]

Had you read the link I previously posted she listed the things she stands for and supports. Basically everything the progressive caucus supports.

Will give her an A+ for honesty.

BTW you are once again mistaken. I voted for HRC and still believe she would have been a great president.

Some of us remember. You did nothing but complain about her, about all her crimes, her far-left socialism, her emails, the whole thing.

And again, even Bernie Sanders would be better than a man that wanted Trump to call for martial law to take over our Constitutional Republic. You said that was disqualifying, and that you'd never vote for him again. I'm not mistaken about that.

I wasn't aware that Trump was part of this conversation about why I couldn't vote for the democratic candidate in my congressional district.

Plus I have said many times that I think HRC would have made a great president on this board.
Unlike you I have no dear leader and can support and vote for people from another party. Something you have never done.

Why would you vote for a man that called for Trump to use military force to overthrow our Constitutional Republic?

[Glennfs]

Why would you vote for a man that called for Trump to use military force to overthrow our Constitutional Republic?

Because his opponent listed around 10 things she was in favor of and I oppose 9 of them.

Including

Forced union membership
Wealth tax
Tax on unrealized income
The new green deal
Ending the filibuster
Packing scotus
$17 Minimum Wage

Just to name 6.
So my choice boiled down to a canidate who is going to say dumbass things. Or a candidate who supports things which will damage and destroy our nation.

It wasn't a dumbass thing to say. It was fucking treason.

And you're good with it. You're good with a candidate that, if he loses, will demand a violent overthrow of our government. You just don't care if people die in the process.

I just listed 6 of the 9 reasons I didn't vote for her.
But, that doesn't matter.

So you believe Ralph Norman is going to call for the violent overthrow of the US government if Trump loses.

Here's your sign

He has already called for the violent overthrow of the government. It wasn’t a prediction, Glenn.
