"Blame Bush. Of course. Deane is right. You are beyond help." "Beyond help," because I deal in FACTS? If that's the case, then I don't want help. Hey, let's engage in some RWNJ-type speculation, shall we? We already have PROOF that the GOP altered the Benghazi memos to make the WH look bad, how do we know that Miller wasn't a mole to try and torpedo Obama by directing this type of scurrilous activity? Sounds like it was another GOP plot, too.

HD on "Fake outrage"

Witness the 'What me worry' mindlessness of the left. Given this out-of-control administration's scandals with more sure to come out, far scarier than any so-called fake outrage is no outrage at all. If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention, indeed.

This from yesterday's All Access: -------------------------------------------FTC Clears Sinclair-Fisher Deal------------------------------------------- The Federal Trade Commission has cleared the SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP-FISHER COMMUNICATIONS deal, granting the $373.3 million TV and radio transaction early termination on WEDNESDAY (5/13). The move clears the deal of antitrust concerns, leaving FCC approval and FISHER shareholder approval the only hurdles left to approval of the transaction, which includes News KOMO-A (and an LMA of SOUTH SOUND BROADCASTING News KOMO-F/OAKVILLE, WA), Talk KVI-A, and Hot AC KPLZ (STAR 101.5)/SEATTLE.

Sonofabitch!!! Wow. Missing pretty well summed up the current state of the GOP (which is NOTHING like Eisenhower's party anymore) and a tip of the hat for that fine piece of writing. I've not seen anything stated so eloquently on the current state of affairs. I sure as hell don't want to be around in 20 years to see the harvest from all these seeds of ignorance being sown by completely uniformed and ignorant citizens. Hello, Feudalism back again for an "encore" performance.

Last Saturday night on KEX. John B. Wells must be keeping listeners tuned into Coast. Why else is John B. the shows top "go to guy" when George Noory takes nights off? He's filled in the past two Friday's I believe and other nights, besides doing his Saturday shows. He's a rising star, like him or not.

And that Deane is precisely why it's worth getting to the facts. It's worth it to pay attention, and when we don't, when we check out like you claim to be doing, we get this kind of shit. Why? Because they can, if we let them. The whole game is about whether or not we let them. Who is "them?" Powerful people, and how they got there doesn't matter, just that they are, who just want it the way they want it and because they simply can. Because freedom. Literally. The only check on that is the First Amendment, where votes cast can check power and wealth, and given that dynamic, is there any wonder at all over the massive amount of misinformation out there? Really? Show your work. What's that phrase? History is made by a few people who did what it took to get it done? Something like that. Well, when we've got massive misinformation, an anti science, anti education, anti art, anti culture, anti society, then we are more about being against things than for them and those few people can and do what it takes to get it done, leaving the mess for the rest of us, hell bent on blaming one another while we live, eat, sleep, live in the mess we will have to some day clean up. **Enjoy the movie.

How novel indeed! Imagine that, "fixing the facts to match the policy!" Remember that kids! Of course you do, our selected, not elected President Bush got tagged with that one. Fuck the past, fuck facts, let's just put the shit out for the chumps to lap up and it all will be good. They think you are stupid! (well, about 23 percent of us actually are, or seriously character challenged) So stupid that nobody would *ever* catch on to changed e-mails. No sir! Those limp dick Liberals have no balls, and besides! Jesus, freedom, impeach, guns, god. What else does anybody need or want? Oh yeah money, well if you work reaaally hard, you too can be a one percenter, just trust us... and by the way, while you are busting your ass chasing an ever shifting dream, let's make sure you take some personal responsibility and that means paying your way and then some. No pensions! That is for pussies! Let's put you in the market! Get some skin in the game so you will worship those companies because your life as a retired person or Wal*Mart greeter depends on whether or not they screw you over! Health care? Nobody needs that, and besides it's expensive. When you tip over, which by the way is much more likely to happen before you quit working because we want to gut the New Deal, roll back labor laws, fuck all the women we want --even our sister and you can too, raising the retirement age, bitch slapping you with a Medicare voucher, rip out the public schools so when you aren't working you can educate your own kids, and because it all sucks so god damn hard, and we know you get a stiffy just thinking about it, have a gun! Shit, have two or three and free bullets! Obama hands out cell phones, never mind that Bush started it, we have bullets, and, and, and... we built ours, fuck you, go build yours and make sure you pay every red cent you can for ours while you do, good luck, and freedom. It will be glorious as long as we destroy those liberals! Go ahead, punch a fucking hippie, then shoot 'em, because liberal and gays. Liberal is weak, they think too much, are gay, godless, leftist, Hitler loving, fag ass, really godless, blood thirsty raw bastards who will absolutely destroy this fine country where we think it's more important that the best of us get it all, fuck everybody else, and if you just trust us there is plenty left for you! Damn right, and liberals are keeping you from your share of this God given, blessed nation of plenty so long as you don't let the gays marry, and because lazy people. So yeah, while you are spending all your time figuring out who to hate and how to hate them just right, busting your ass to work for the least possible, because you know they just need more, and if they get just a little bit more you will be rewarded! Trickle down, almost there, just need to undo a little bit more of the evil liberals big government... yeah, while keeping on top of all that, and church, you won't notice that we lied a little, because liberals are evil, and it's OK to do what it takes to push back against evil, because this is God's country and it runs on one book! The Bible says, and that's all you need to know, and if it were not for us making sure you stay on track every single minute you would be burning in hell for sure, dammed for all eternity, stuck there with those liberal Godless heathens wishing you were with the rest of us who didn't fuck around and got shit done. God bless, see you on Sunday, and make sure you put a little something in the plate. Never mind that we steal, cheat on our wives, fuck our sisters, get a little gay now and then, are so greedy we can't see straight! Never mind that, because we got your back, if you got ours! It's God will that you hate brown people, need a gun at all times --really, it's at least two, but we can't let that out, and girls need their daddies to keep 'em pure until marriage, and gays! Don't catch it! Takes forever to scrub off all the Gay, so don't even start it and pray hard for those who did, because we are all in this together, big tent and nobody is perfect, and God loves Republicans! It's all corrupt, and if you think we are bad, just think how much worse it would be if we let the Liberals get control! Politics is an ugly business and you just leave it to us! We will tear this government down so far you won't have to even think about it, nobody telling you not to hate, or talking down the Bible, and gay people will burn proper, praise Jesus, A-Men! Oh, and the world hates freedom. Because liberals. **Now, I'm having a bit of fun, but some form of that garbage is going on non-stop people. The stupid party needs a lot of stupid people to cast uninformed, issue votes so they can keep the whole thing working to build an oligarchy the likes of which the world has never seen! If you do what I did; namely, just cut the cable, tune out of the TV, Radio and just think for a while, the amount of misinformation out there is staggering! The majority of what you see and hear each day is controlled by a hand full of people who do not want you actually thinking about things at all, and when you do think about it, they want you so confused, scared, hateful that it's hard --so hard that maybe it's just easier to trust "the real Americans" vote the vote you are told to, fuck government, and hope it all goes away. And it will too! Piece by piece it's being undone, the spoils going to the top, always needing a little bit more, and if you have any extra, God needs some too, and as it gets undone, life sucks that much more, things get a little harder, and who is at fault here? Not you! All that misinformation addles your brain to a point where functional dialog failures are perfectly understandable! No, it's those fucking smart ass, elite, fucking hippy, socialist, gay, godless liberals standing between you and authoritarian bliss, because freedom and guns. So what's a little minor league crime between friends? Not a worry, because it's us against THEM LIBERALS and we take care of our own. And who can blame somebody lying, cheating, stealing for the cause? Somebody has to break this corrupt government right? Right, and if that means breaking a few of those fucking liberals and their laws and their balls too, why not? Because freedom dammit. And guns. Fuck gays. And so it goes. It's pretty obvious to me who is who here. Some of us are being rational about things and some of us are not. Go ahead, pretend if you want to. If you do it long enough, you won't even realize you are! Fixed! Next! You are what you consume. Suck down enough shit and you start to smell a little. Just remember when you are trying to punch the liberals down. The stupid party thinks you are stupid! Republicans are perfectly happy to dumb down, lie, cheat, steal and do whatever it takes to get the other Republicans to vote as they are told. They think you are stupid. They think Broadway is stupid. They think Skybill is stupid. They think Deane is stupid, and they think Dodger, Steve, KW and everybody else is stupid. They think I am stupid too! They think everybody is stupid, and do you want to know why they really hate liberals? Why liberals simply must be destroyed? Because we know we aren't stupid, and we know they think we are really stupid and we know better because of that and they hate it because the stupid doesn't work on us and that costs money and it costs time and they think we are stupid and hate us because we don't agree! And not only that, but we actually remember the past and ask ugly questions that make them look stupid and it's not about them, but about us and how stupid we are and how much we can pop kids, eat slop and shit cash. That's why. Are you stupid? Really? You do know most of that ugly garbage I wrote above is actually on the agenda don't you? I've got a few fun ones in there nobody is entirely serious about, but it's an interesting exercise to pick through and find the smaller portion that isn't on the agenda! Most of it is! And it's on the agenda because they think you are stupid enough to miss it. And from what I read here, particularly on this summer of scandals they are trying to manufacture into something that gets the really stupid wing of the stupid party to vote early and often, the real question is this: Are you actually stupid , or are you just lazy, jaded, maybe burned out , or are you just ignorant? We can fix lazy, and jaded happens to people, so does burned out. Nothing some good policy, opportunity, affordable health care, a clean low crime place to live and raise a family won't fix in nothing flat. But, if you actually are stupid? Can't fix that. Think hard and ask yourself whether or not you really are a member of the stupid party. Is that what you want? Is that what must be? Is that simply who you are? I'm not, and I know I'm not, and I know those things absolutely cold, wide awake, yes I pay attention, solid. There is absolutely no question about who I am, what I believe, why I believe it, what matters, what does not, and who has my back and who is fucking me over. Do you? They think you don't, and because they think you don't, they will lie, cheat, fuck, steal, and do whatever it takes to get it all for them and theirs because stupid people are here to make the world better for the smarter people and that is how it is for real. And the beauty is, when they get caught, blowing off felony crimes and hard core infidelity, gay sex on the side, screwing over their fourth wife, or getting that divorce from their second cousin, because well the new girl is just HOT, they know the past is the past and the stupid people eat what they are fed and it doesn't take much to brush it all off, hit the Sunday shows, rub noses with a few wealthy friends, get some money in their pocket, and it's all brand new like nothing ever happened! So which is it? Lazy, ignorant, or stupid? No need to show your work. The words you put here are all anybody paying any amount of attention needs to know, meaning you fool nobody but yourself, and that my friends is by design! Good luck with that. I'm here to help, just ask.

Take a hike, leftists. This lie-beral administration shows you'll do anything to cover up your dirty deeds. You got caught and good: 'During a House Ways and Means Committee hearing today, Rep. Aaron Schock, R-Ill., grilled outgoing IRS commissioner Steven Miller about the IRS targeting a pro-life group in Iowa. “Their question, specifically asked from the IRS to the Coalition for Life of Iowa: ‘Please detail the content of the members of your organization’s prayers,’" Schock declared.

It used to be that there were 25 frequencies with only one occupant at night in the continental United States, protected from skywave interference, not only on their own frequency but the first adjacents as well. WSB was one of those occupants. Later on, KXL was moved to 750 as a "limited time" station, protecting WSB and still does, although nighttime protection has been radically reduced.

It makes the show completely uninteresting on the weekends. Fortunately kmhd over nights on the weekends is way cooler than it used to be!
