AirAmericaRadio

I just listened to the first 3 hours of AirAmericaRadio, the new liberal radio station. The noon-3pm show is The O'Frankin Factor, hosted by Al Franken.

If the show is this good every day, they've got a real winner. It was funny, entertaining, funny, lots of big names, and did I mention funny? I'm sure that the right wing is preparing to badmouth everything about the show... from the parody of Ann Coulture (sp?) to the selection of guests.

I wonder if AirAmerica, which is a paintball supply company, is getting a huge number of hits to their web site. The proper URL is http://www.airamericaradio.com/ of course.

And yes, you can listen to it via the internet.

Who do you trust with your money?

Democrats manage government's money better:

Who do you trust to fight terrorism?

Not only did the Clinton campaign work to stop Al Qaeda, but the Bush admiinistration shut it down:

"The most damaging remarks came from Gen. Henry H. Shelton, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff until Oct. 1, 2001. Shelton told us that in the Bush administration terrorism had moved "farther to the back burner." He also recounted how the Joint Chiefs of Staff, frustrated at the lack of progress in dealing with Al Qaeda, had begun a disinformation program in the last year of the Clinton administration to create dissent within the Taliban. But Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz shut it down. Counterterrorism, the new leadership felt, was not a military mission."
