I like to watch Cspan & t.v. preachers for laughs.
I'm really a sick individual who finds humor in strange places. I'm an atheist, but my wife and I really enjoy Sunday mornings over coffee and t.v. preachers. We have our favorites and our least favorites, we comment on their suits, and their overall demeanor and we rate them and laugh at them. I know, it's odd.

But that's why I like to watch Washington Journal on Cspan, I get big laughs from all the crazy callers, and man some really wild ones get through on occasion.

I surmise that a large percentage of the callers are heavily medicated or under a doctor's treatment for mental problems. The angry republicans are my favorite, especially the really old ones, they get so so riled up.

I love it when they say, "Is this me talking"? Or, "Wake up people"! Then there are the pissy republicans who complain that Cspan favors liberals and hangs up on respectable republican callers.

Some more of my favorite lines are "liberals are the enemy and are the ones destroyin' this country", "my daddy fought in w w 2 and I fought in Korea and Vietnam and bla bla bla".

"I ain't got nothin' to hide so I don't mind being wiretapped". "Panties on the head is not torture". "Clinton let Osama git away", "Clinton let Osama attack us".

The religious callers are my favorite, saying that God put bush in the oval office, and its the end o' the world here's the bible passage that proves it, the country went to hell when they took god out of our schools, the Muslims worship a false god, Democrats just wanna raise your taxes and kill babies.

And then there are the ones who've been saving up all their rage and hate to get on Cspan and ejaculate it all in four minutes of screaming and spitting and heavy breathing and end it with a smarmy "thank yeeeew".

Overall though, its a boring form of entertainment that only a sicko like me would get into, but if you are patient, you will hear some of the greatest comedy ever, and you'll swear that some of the callers are really from Saturday Night Live punking us all.

1. Same here
i find it funny how these freeks look just like kids from american bandstand from the 70's wanting to get their mugs on tv so they roll clip to St. Peter to prove their love of god, and nothing else matters.

4. I like the one with lavender hair.
She looks like one of those cheap plastic dolls from the dollar store. It's like a car wreck: you shouldn't look, but you do anyway. I've also been known to watch the 700 Club after a beer or 2 (I can't stomach Pat Robertson any other way.)
