"What do you have to say about the radio talk show hosts who denigrate everything about Democrats daily on the airways." Lately, I rarely listen to radio talk shows, but I have heard Rush several times this year. As much as Rush can, at times, be excited & engage in hyperbole designed to appeal to his base; I have yet to hear or read of any instances where he has cast aspersions or denigrated "everything about Democrats". As for other "radio talk show hosts", I personally know even less about them. However, I am not aware of any legitimate reports citing allegations similar to yours. As much as Rush is not my cup of tea, I have yet to hear or read of any specific issue(s) he challenged that were not backed by genuinely inappropriate or questionable words, deeds or actions. I am also aware that Rush appropriately has backed off from some things as time & events have infolded differently than when the story broke. Unlike you, I do not trust biased journalists or politicians to spoon feed me disingenuous allegations. Sadly, that is a common practice these days. I prefer to get to the underlying facts independently before I draw conclusions such as the one you have so strongly asserted as fact. Perhaps you can point me to a few specific credible instances where, "radio talk show hosts who denigrate everything about Democrats daily" has actually occurred. Until then, I will remain highly skeptical that your assertion actually represents reality.
