Following CNN's hour and fifteen minute or so long commercial free info-mercial they gave Rush Limbaugh, who do they bring in for commentary after they've subjected their viewers to a full dose of right wing radio talking points? CNN's Bill Schneider and Mark Preston, and Ron Christie, who of course defends Rush Limbaugh's speech at CPAC. So CNN's idea of balance is three of their talking heads and one far right wing former Cheney aide Ron Christie who never met a racial slur from anyone on the right he didn't want to defend.

They did actually show a few of the comments on Twitter at the end of the segment which I hear are almost all negative in response to Limbaugh's speech. Maybe bothering to give the viewers some stats as to just how many negative comments they got would have offered some sort of balance but they chose not to do that. They decided instead to give a voice to someone who is on the extreme right to defend Limbaugh and the only balance being a couple of their milk toast reporters.

So CNN, what's up? You worried about trying to pick up some of Fox News' market share or what? I know Saturdays are slow news days but when are you going to give the same air time to someone on the left with no commercials? How about you give an hour commercial free to the keynote speaker at Daily KOS's Netroots Nation this year?

I sure hope Rush does come forward and becomes the face of the Republican party. This will give the rest of the country a good idea of how the right really feels about the working class and how the right tries so hard to keep us down. Exploitation of the working class has to come to an end and we must rebuild this country by starting and supporting small business.

If that happens, the oxy-moron will have to actually answer questions for a change, instead of just sitting back spewing his pro-terrorism poison unchallenged.

Then America will finally bear witness to his twisted facist, neo-nazi beliefs being exposed for the treasonous extremes they are.

I think a little stint in Guantameno Bay would do him wonders--I know it would me...(to have him there).

Why is a gay black guy supporting Limbough? He has prollems with his fragile little IQsies?

Gasbag Ron Christie doesn't merely drink the koolaid, he chugs it morning, noon & night--this guy is the textbook definition of a simple-minded zealot.

What an asshat.
