Just Wondering...

Has anyone noticed that since President Obama's inauguration that the Republican "noise" has gotten even more ugly and vitriolic than before the election? I can't even get into the car and turn on the radio for fear I'll have to listen to Ed Lambert (local conservative water carrier), Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, or Howie Carr (another local "wag") spewing their innuendo and supposition to the just barely listening followers of their programs.

What these listeners don't seem to get is that, with the exception of Lambert, whom I know, these folks are multi-millionaires to whom their so-called conservative ideals are simply exercises in theory, and that we, the people who work at honest jobs are the ones who suffer when the economy is tanking, and it is our children and loved ones who are cannon fodder for their ideological wars. I am simply not amazed anymore by the short sightedness of the talk radio-listening public.
