right-wing blogs we like

  • The Reagan Wing
    Hearin lies the real heart of Washington State Republicans. Doug Parris runs this red-meat social conservative group site which bars no holds when it comes to saying who they are and who they're not; what they believe and what they don't; who their friends are and where the rest of the Republicans can go. Well-written, and flaming.

Don't touch that dial - Dori's annual (turkey) breast fondle is next week.

Are you ACTUALLY disappointed that you can't dish Hannity on anything BUT his content?

artistdogboy

It reminds me of the story of an rather conservative woman at work telling me how she was channel surfing and came upon (no pun intended) explicit porno being aired on the public access channel late one night. "it was totally disgusting and gross" she said. And then she added "and they continued to show the couple fornicating it for nearly a hour"

CHPS

I heard that last night too, and I got a little aroused and I'm not even a middle-aged man.
Shame on you for being born so long ago, Michael!

Andrew

This got me to thinking about wether sexual suggestion should be restricted in public, and
since it can distract people from going about there business as they would have otherwise I think it's fair to prohibit it to some degree.

Teenagers are particularily vulnerable to being caught off gaurd by it and need more protection against it than adults.

sfadasda

yeah, let's ban sex talk.....won't someone think of the children!!!???

God forbid a parent would actually have a conversation with their kids about sex.

Now let's go watch CSI and the graphic depictions of violence!!! Good family show for everyone!!!

Too bad this blog is stuck on AM, I would like to hear some insight on The Buzz 100.7fm talk radio and the shit going on over there in regards to censorship.

Thank god I live in Seattle, controlled not only by raving democrats, but sex hating feminazis.

Maybe we should extend the 4' rule to radios.

Fred

Better watch where you are going with this. Start banning sexual simulation on the radio and soon only criminals will get to talk about sexual simulation.
Everyone else will have to talk about the real thing.

Andrew

I'm not suggesting banning free speach relating to sex, or banning anything, especialy in your own home or private establishment, but some regulation of it's presentation in public would be good.

For example, those bill boards are getting pretty explicit, and something doesn't seem right about a congregation of middle school kids faking sex with eachother while music plays. I don't think that's something they should have to deal with at that age. I remember when I was that age I often couldn't concentrate at school due to sexual influences around me. It was very draining and frustrating. I don't think kids today should have to deal with it if we can help it.

The slope isn't that slippery, we already have decency laws as it is. I'm just asking that they be used to help someone rather than just push a puritan ethic.

Ah..the rapier wit is no longer as appreciated as in days of yore....

    • KIRO 710ESPN Seattle 710 KHz
      Games and sports-blabber

    • KUOW FM 94.9
      Seattle's foremost public radio news and talk.
    • KVI am 570 KHz
      Visit the burnt-out husk of one of the seminal right-wing talkers in all the land.

Now it's Top 40 hits from the '60's & '70's aimed at that diminishing crowd who still remembers them and can still hear.
    • KTTH am 770 KHz
      Right wing home of local, and a whole bunch of syndicated righties such as Glennn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Medved, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Lars Larsony, and for an hour a day: live & local David Boze.
    • KPTK am 1090 KHz
      Syndicated liberal talk. Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, Ed Schultz, Randi Rhodes, Norman Goldman fill in the large hole to the left on Northwest radio dial.
    • KLFE AM 1590 kHz
      Syndicated right-wing 2nd stringers like Mark Levin, Bill Bennett, Mike Gallagher, Dennis Prager, Dennis Miller and Hugh Hewitt inhabit this timid-voiced neighbor honker for your radio enjoyment (unless you're behind something large like Costco).

      News, traffic, Ken Schram and John Carlson.

      Comprehensive list of every danged AM & FM station on the dial.
