Did anyone see David Horowitz on cspan this morning?

I really hate that guy and he was more obnoxious than usual. He's got a anti-Noam Chomsky book out and he kept plugging it every 2 minutes when he wasn't bashing Kerry.

1. They had to create a special species...

Of upright walking, opposable-thumbed lower life form just for him.

6. I know what you mean...

I feel asleep with c-span on last night and woke up to that. I honestly thought it was a nightmare, until I realized he was being for real with his Chomsky demonizing.

If I had eaten breakfast before that I certainly would have lost it.

4. Yes, I heard him - and I was upset when

the host hung up on a caller for "name-calling." In the meantime, Horowitz called anyone and everybody names. I sent an e-mail to C-span about him. I called once when he was on before with a very legitimate statement and question and once I was off the air, he called me stupid. I pointed out to C-Span that when that happens, the caller has no recourse. Anyway, he did it the entire show and I detest the man and really do not think he should be on - even if I am for free speech, etc. If they are going to allow him to do that, they need to keep the caller on the line and let the caller respond to his name calling.

5. I saw that butthole...

Just because he was with a small radical socialist group when he was younger, he now pretends that the enire left and the Democratic Party were just like he was when he was pretending to be a radical with his little group of silly friends.

8. Usually when they bring the rightwing loons on i can handle it

But today i got so frigging angry about his tirade on Noam Chomsky and anything democratic and then the host just sitting there letting him go unchallenged, WTF? Cspan has become one of the only American media outlets that usually will let on both pints of view but after today i don't know if I'll even watch them anymore.

9. David Horowitz

is just hopeless. I refuse to watch a program if he is the guest. I cannot understand why C-Span keeps having him on. He is such an unpleasant person.

12. Whoreowitz is a piece of shit

Always was, always will be.

He was never a leftist radical either. It's not humanly possible for any liberal to fall that far down the IQ ladder.

As soon as I found out he was coming on,I changed the channel. I can't watch that bile spewing racist.He is a good poster boy for the republicans,though.He represents exactly the way they think.God,he is a pathetic non-human who should never be able to be out in society,let alone on national tv. :puke:
