Today’s show: Obama MIA on campaign trail

Democrats are in deep trouble. Why does the President think Republicans are somehow going to realize that they should be cooperating with him? Why isn’t he in their districts calling them out by name? Listener calls and Kristen goes the full hour without a doughnut.

Glenn Beck’s new website: Even dumber than you’d expect

At the 2003 memorial for slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, Feisal Abdul Rauf, the imam who wants to build a community center in lower Manhattan that fringe conservatives call the Ground Zero Mosque, sought to comfort a religiously diverse crowd. To Pearl’s Jewish father, he said:
We are here to assert the Islamic conviction [...]

Tomorrow’s assault on Martin Luther King

As Glenn Beck lies by claiming that the people who opposed MLK — conservatives like him — were actually behind the civil rights movement, we ask whether those who will assemble in front of the Lincoln Memorial tomorrow to hear Beck are evil or just stupid. Stay tuned for the end of the show for [...]

Today’s show: The right’s professional liars

Why Newt & the rest of the denizens of the vortex of bullshit are lying about the lower Manhattan Islamic community center…plus comedian Jimmy Dore, listener calls and Gabe finally fails to mention a certain incident that occurred over 30 years ago. Listen here.

In the chron: Irrational fear of ‘mosque’ hardly unprecedented

It’s about the 9/11 attack. No, not that one:

On today’s Partisan Gridlock: Farmer Mark from Katy calls, but his loud cock momentarily sidetracks the discussion of how Anthony Weiner’s nuts (but in a good way). A teabagger demonstrates the courage of her convictions…plus, we bid a reluctant but fond farewell to Afshar.

NewsBusters promotes and sells gold while taking on journalists for criticizing Glenn Beck for promoting and selling gold

Actual journalists have been pointing out the conflict of interest inherent in Glenn Beck’s fearmongering about the economy. Beck likes to say that only gold will be worth anything after Obama rounds up all the white people and the Dollar is overrun by the Peso. Oh, and by the way, he adds during a commercial [...]

Andrew Breitbart: Victim

Today’s show: Pitty party for victim Andrew Breitbart…..plus, we exclusively broadcast selectively edited audio of Breitbart (not to give anything away, but he mentions Long Dong Silver)….listener calls and Gabe wishes me a happy birthday in a way that only he can.
Listen here.

In the chron: Sarah Palin punishes journalists

According to the former governor, she’s avoiding the media because in 2008 journalists (as opposed to the words which came out of her mouth) made her look stupid. Now she’s retaliating by boycotting them, in much the same way a patient might refuse chemotherapy to punish the doctor who diagnosed cancer.
