I think it's great that these wingnuts get to rant on AM radio 24/7 and Fox. The progressives have NPR and websites like HuffPo and ThinkProgress to support our views and expose the ridiculous comments and ideas of the right. I say let them keep talking. More and more decent people will keep jumping ship if we just continue to show the world what these extremists are saying. Maybe a new center right party will emerge. I would love to know what percentage of the population actually tunes in to Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, etc. I know they have many listeners, but the majority of Americans are clueless about who these people are.

I am not a fan of having a one party country, but if joe the plumber and sarah palin represent the best the republicans have to offer..... Joe is a real redneck who doesnt seem to understand freedom of speech and what that means. Taking out people and shooting them because they say things you dont like is pretty much what Saddam Hussein did, and it is captured on that famous video. Joe should bow the hell out of political commentary and go get himself a real plumbers license. I would suggest sticking to fixing pipes and toilets. That is much more useful to folks than this ignorant offensive vomit of his. maybe he can start a new KKK or something like that, he sounds like he would fit in well there. whats the difference between joe the plumber and saddam hussein? answer: not much.
