1. 49% think it's working?!?

What's Arizona's official State drink? Kool-ade?

[DesertRat]

5. I was happily surprised that it was that close.

[AndyTiedye]

6. It's 104º There. Maybe They Ran Out of Water and Got Nothing to Drink But Kool Aid

[Kutjara]

9. Either that or the heat has cooked some folk's brains. n/t

[DesertRat]

11. It was actually 106 today which is a cooldown from previous weeks of 110+

Lots of thirsty Freepers in AZ

[TomInTib]

14. It's Arizona, whaddya expect?

Some of the nuttiest people in the country live out there.

Back when I lived (and despaired, at times) in Texas, I would always console myself with the thought that at least I wasn't in Arizona.

[DesertRat]

18. that's why DU is my salvation!

[TomInTib]

25. I never realized you live in Arizona.

For some reason, I always visualized you as some hip, cool woman living maybe in the Anza Borrego (Southern California).

You know, hanging out with maybe some good dogs and driving a cool old truck.

Or something.

Don't get me wrong, I still think you are that same woman (but living in slightly more urbane Scottsdale).

[DesertRat]

33. wow thanks, Tom

In my own mind I am who you describe. It is challenging to be a Liberal living here in Freeperville. :hi:

[spanone]

27. the power of fear and propaganda is mighty strong

[L0oniX]

2. Oh ...it's just more people on the FOX crack pipe

[babylonsister]

3. The Valley? And I thought the oxygen content would be stronger down there.

Guess not. ;-)

[DesertRat]

22. Nope. Just lots of pollution.

7. I see that this station spews Glenn Beck, which explains the 49% kool aid drinkers.

[DesertRat]

15. And they're not even the Hannity and Limbaugh station. n/t

[karlrschneider]

8. DUed

[DesertRat]

[HughMoran]

10. Got some serious morans there in Phoenix

:(

[DesertRat]

16. Don't I know it.

I see the W stickers daily
:-(

[Loge23]

12. Most have no idea

After this little game that the WH just played, the average person probably doesn't have a clue about the surge.
The sound bites say it's working, and the troops are coming home.
The reality is completely the opposite.
This is a very serious problem we are in - not only in Iraq, but at home.

26. Jeff Farias on Nova M Radio

operates outta Phoenix...Nova M has a dial up option, which works great. But there are 500 people in the area who REALLY think the surge is working? How disheartening that is....mygod
here's link to Nova M

[DesertRat]

34. I listen to novam here on 1480 am in Phoenix

The signal isn't too strong where I am, but I can pick it up in my car and of course by streaming. I listen to Jeff, Randi Rhodes and Stephanie Miller.
It is a refuge here where we have at least 3 right wing radio stations.
