Bill Press inspires me. I turned the tv off and decided to read what
I could and listen to Bill at the same time. I listen to him on Chicago's Progressive Talk. Anyway, since the Right has pretty much control over the media, Bill Press gives an intelligent and articulate recap of the debate for my democratic leanings. He liked Huntsman and as with many on DU, opined Huntsman could never get the nomination, he's too sane. Michelle Bachmann used to be somebody, but no more..It's nice to listen to his calm and rational opinions. Bill also has interesting guests, this morning I heard VanHollen who agreed with his thoughts. I'm waiting for his "parting shot."

Okay, we're back...These are not debates, a beauty pageant, slugfest is more accurate. Mitt had more substance than the others. If this is the best the republicans have to offer..."God save the Republic."

1. I hate the fact that Sirius XM has cut him back to one hour at 6am.
And replaced him with Alex Bennett.

4. Unfortunately, we can scream enmasse all day & Sirius doesn't give a shit...
Since shows are not dependent on ratings, Sirius doesn't seem to think they have to be responsive to customer programming requests.

Damn, I have hated what they did to progressive radio since Sirius took over XM.

5. I hate that too
I ride to the bus from 6:30-7a each morning, so I do get to listen to him. One day I rode to work past 7. I couldn't listen to that turd Alex Bennet. He's really not Liberal

7. Bennett is horrible!
I tried to listen the first week, but had to turn him off. He's disgusting! This is what I learned from him. He loves to talk about his producers boobs, he hates liberals, and loves babies if they are dead. Honest to God, he's a creep.

I'm in Iowa and used to be able to listen to Press on the Chicago station. I could hear a little of it amid the crackling. Lately though, there is some station from Dallas that comes in really clear on that channel. It's driving me nuts.

6. I chose not to watch the children's hour and indulged in a book on "The Reign Of Terror".
that, to me, is a more accurate depiction of what will eventually happen here.

just remember to wear your sans-coulettes, if you know what's good for you.
