Nothing but advertisements. I've heard the same fucking advertisement 6 times in a row.

IE working. Thanks for the notice.

2. Yeah I think it's a Flash Player issue - works fine in IE7
i don't like IE but switched for this - you get maybe one ad, then the show - which is on live now. It does go to commercial a bit since it's AM talk radio but it won't be that same looping one.

11. IE Tab
Edited on Thu Aug-06-09 03:56 PM by kirby
I use IE Tab, which is a Firefox extension. It adds a little icon in your Firefox status bar. If you click the icon, it renders the page using the IE engine within your Firefox browser. Check it out, it works well for stuff like this.

10. All the haters and conservatives are jumping in w/the usual rhetoric
This guy is demanding people "get a job" otherwise they don't deserve 'as good of' health care as him.

Dennis is countering as best as possible, but these types will never understand his words.

12. Yeah listening to all these neo-con heartless assholes is hard to stomach
I'm amazed at how well Dennis does it - but he's a pro. A lot better than my "shut up you ignorant redneck" approach.

17. ...and it continues. And so it goes. The callers simply blame others for systematic problems.
In other words, in their minds, they'd rather focus on those they don't like rather than acknowledge the MASSIVE institutional for-profit problems.

13. I forgot how many commercials are on local radio?
I'm about to turn it off. And its a Fox station, LOL.

It seems every time he starts to answer someone, he has to go to commercial or traffic or local news.

18. Don't know why the hatred and total lack of compassion of the average AM talk show listener surprise
surprises me, but somehow it does. I guess cause I don't run into these people often? :shrug:

19. I dont think he is doing a very good job at debunking these fools...
I mean the idiot who claimed only 3% profit margin in health care (versus trial lawyers). Why didn't he attack that? He could have said, even if only 3% of the dollar was profit, 31% was admin overhead, etc. I mean tell the guy if his number was true, why wouldnt he want to give up 3% measly profit in order to save 31% overhead to generate that 3%.
