Post #294,308 by Seamus 10/6/07 11:40:09 AM Reply	That doesn't seem to be the way he sells himself to his audience. He trots out the I am just an entertainer line when he needs to, but to the ditto heads I have talked to, they take him seriously as a conservative and a thinker. Seamus
Post #294,309 by boxley 10/6/07 11:52:55 AM Reply	he is no conservative, restraining a constitutional right to redress in the courts to support profit for the healthcare industry is against the common man. Most ditto heads are the repocrat versions of the little red book crowd, thinking has been replaced by sloganeering, thanx, bill Quantum materiae materietur marmota monax si marmota monax materiam possit materiari?

This week it seems that the democrats were running against Rush for President. The blogosphere is frothing. All of this he considers success. Too much of today's music is fashionable crap dressed as artistry._{Adrian Belew}
Post #294,311 by Another Scott 10/6/07 12:48:24 PM Reply	He's both. He pushes a political agenda, but ratings come first. As with [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=219460\|Neil Boortz], his primary objective is to get ratings and advertizers. His shtik involves "conservative" opinions, but it's secondary. However, when Republican politicians align with him (as they often do), or he aligns with them (as he usually does), then he carries much more weight than as a simple entertainer. Cheers, Scott.
