PLEASE READ ANN
Editorial
Because we here at LB in '04 cherish our Christian heritage, we urge everyone to read Ann Coulter. It is so sad and pathetic to see she is still writing and ranting even when no one really reads or listens. Does anyone really listen to her anymore? Did any ever really listen? Sure, she sells books, but we know who buys most of them, don't we.
Lets face it, the left has reached, at times, a high decibel screech when lambasting Ms. Coulter, Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Liddy, North and Ingraham. Why? Their influence is minimal. How long has the country been awash in right-wing radio waves? Limbaugh resurrected Father Coughlin back in the late '80's. Copycats soon followed. The result, the same 10-25 million people who listened to Limbaugh in 1990, listen to him today. Those same people then tune into one of the other hacks.
Since the emergence of Right-Wing Radio, no Republican Presidential candidate has won a plurality of the vote! Imagine, with all those highly tuned minds, the Hannity's, the Savages, the Limbaugh's, and the result is three straight popular vote losses.
Please, people, to vilify these ridiculous pop-political philosophers is to give them much more credit than they deserve. Laugh at them, mock them but never take them seriously.
Besides, it's good to have criminals and addicts such as North Liddy and Limbaugh off the streets.
