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.
  • Orbusmax
    inexhaustible Drudgery of NW conservative news
  • The Radio Equalizer
    prolific former Seattle KVI, KIRO talk host speaks authoritatively about radio.

Hood; glad you are having a good vacation. I just happened to check in here, almost missed it because the insulting ridiculis bullshit on here from the republican coolaid drinkers is not worth the investment of my time.

sparky

It is currently 14 at my house.

You suck.

;)

Currently 8F at my location. Just brought the outdoor dog in, against her will, and washing the reek off of her. Take care Mike.

And I'm still headed to BB, my first Thanksgiving up there. I hope it has thawed out.

Also, wrapped my northern pipes this morning - no jokes about barn doors closing after the cows are out please.

I'm currently cruising sites featuring real estate in Wyoming and New Mexico. There's some good deals out there.

Don't hurry back. It's cold. But, school was cancelled today and tomorrow . . . always a silver lining somewhere.

sparky

drive safely joanie. Happy turkey day.

joanie

Thanks, Sparky. Happy Thanksgiving to you and to everyone who blathers on the watch.

Umm, any turkeys down there, Michael?

Due to weather, our turkey received a stay of execution. Good thing we bought a prime rib as backup.

Hope everyone recovers from their cabin fever soon, and happy T-day!

U too AMJ

Stay safe in your travels and enjoy a Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Good for you, great picture, and yes we were freezing our asses off for several hours last week when we lost power in Ferndale at 23 degrees with the wind howling! 2 or 3 "La Nina" years ago, we were in Yelapa, Mexico and came back to the first of many snowy storms... It was brutal! Makes the tropical times sweeter though doesn't it?

For some reason,
I have been missing Mike Webb a lot over the last few months... the terrible way he died, of course. I used to listen to his show, during my long nights in an oil refinery. I'm retired now. I called and talked to him several times. He was a compassionate,fierce and proud liberal--and yet had a tortured secret life, as so many people do. One of my best friends is gay--he's 83.

I also loved Bernie Ward, who was called the "Lion of the Left" on KGO radio. He got busted on trumped-up child porn charges and sent away to a prison so his family can't visit him without great expense. His life is ruined... All during during the Bush admin. Two great critics of the Bush regime were silenced... I'm glad you're still here but there will be no one live n' local left for you to critique soon!

nancy, I posted a wwek or so the news reported by Christine Craft, KGO talkhost, that Bernie Ward has finally been moved from the hellhole prison in Tecas to tthe Lompoc California Federal Prison where he should been put in the first place. I agree with you that I'm convinced it was simply meanspierited payback by a vindictive Bush regime to have him located so far away from huis family, where normal policy is something like within 500 miles of the proisoner's family. He is now close to his family, and will get out in three years and some onths. Craft plans to viait him soon. By the way i don't find the "new" W. Bush charming or loveable as he goes about his phony book tour. Still the same mean, nasty little bully and narcissist.

    • KIRO 710ESPN Seattle 710 KHz
      Games and sports-blabber
    • KIROFM 97.3
      Multi-format: news and nearly all local talk. This is where classic KIRO AM news talk radio went... hopefully, not to die. The home of Dave Ross & Luke Burbank, Dori Monson, Ron & Don, Frank Shiers, Bill Radke, Linda Thomas, Tony Miner and George Noory.
    • 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. Here's where once trilled the reactionary tones of Rush Limbaugh, John Carlson, Kirby Wilbur, Mike Siegel, Peter Weissbach, Floyd Brown, Dinky Donkey, and Bryan Suits. 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).
    • KOMOAM
      News, traffic, Ken Schram and John Carlson.
    • Washington State Radio Stations
      Comprehensive list of every danged AM & FM station on the dial.

      Once a rabid right-wing talker, except for Lou Dobbs, it's all business....
