Thanks for all the good work guys.
None of this Bush disaster would be possible without the right wing talk radio monopoly. We know Bush and the GOP don't care how many people protest at state or federal capitols. They WILL care if people protest at their local talk radio stations where their propaganda is broadcast.
Right wing radio is the only place the lies can be repeated over and over to a largely captive audience- "to catapult the propaganda", as Bush said. That is the GOP base and that is what makes red states red. Many progressives and sensible people ignore it because it gives headaches and nausea but it permeates this country with boundaries over which people like Dan Rather cannot pass.
Talk radio is where the "immigration crisis" has beeen blown up far enough to pass the real id legislation but more importantly has been used and will be used to knock down any real election reform.
What gets the GOP base to cheerlead their reps and harrass and threaten anyone who questions or threatens their agenda, especially Republicans who might want to cross Bush, is talk radio. As long as the local talk radio stations go unchallenged at the local level they will hold the republican base together long enough to kill hundreds more in Iraq and steal more elections.
