Jerry Springer is kickin ass today!
He's talking to some freeper about the middle east and I think he talked about PNAC but I'm not sure since I just am now listening in. He's talking about how the middle east is a different culture and they want to have democracy but they don't want to be westernized which is true. I've seen some documentaries on this and what he's saying is going along with those documentaries. They think the western world is evil and Christianity too. This freeper is trying SO hard to make this Iraq occupation seem so "right" and "good" and that Bush is doing a good thing. :eyes: The freeper brought up racisim and fighting that and Jerry is talking about doing away with the reason's why people have racisim by doing away with poverty and raising up opportunity's and how the military isn't always the answer and he's saying in Africa now they have terrorist camps and to do away with the reasons why they're hating us and he said we didn't elect Bush to take over the world and be president of us and not to be president of the world like he's doing and how we're bringing on more enemies because we're there and on one side and not the other.

2. It's come to this
we are counting on Jerry Springer to get the word out . .


That said--I wound't be surprised if he successful morphs into a political--well, not heavy weight--but maybe middle weight

And unlike all the other "talk show hosts" including Oprah--he is the only one to have his own opera.

3. Spinger is one of the smarter Democrats. He's way way ahead
of Al Frankin as a spokesman for Democratic causes.

4. He was mayor of Cincy...
and has always been intelligent and progressive. What you see on his TV show, is a gimmick. I have talked with him many times, and while I was sad to see his show become what it has, it did not make me think less of the person I know he is.

5. True it is just a gimmick,
And Jerry does not take his show seriously, hell he even wonders why people watch that trainwreck.

6. The TV show is so bad it's good
Even Springer himself admits it's a freak show. But it does expose the hypocrisy of the Bible Belt, where most of his guests hail from.
