Ever notice how the three wise men of the Republican party: Beck, Limbaugh and Hannity?

How they don't have enough credits between the three of them for an undergraduate degree?

And yet they are thought wise enough by many to tell doctors, climate scientists and Nobel Prize winning economists how things really are?

I don't have an undergrad degree myself, but then no one listens to me. :)

1. Well, wasn't W Bush's "folksy charm" the reason so many Americans...real Americans...

...identified with him?

I mean, it's not like we wanted the smartest man in the White House...just the one we'd rather have a beer with.

At least, that's what we were told...

2. sean flunked out of NYU

brags of speaking out for conservative values, and those lib professors couldn't handle it - so would not give him passing grades.

4. Yeah, sean, you're lying again

Conservative values means no need for an education.

6. Heh.. Boortz used to end every broadcast on his show with the words..

"Bye bye Sean", back when Hannity was Boortz's competition on the talk show stations here in Atlanta..

But, like Boortz says, he has a face for radio.. While Hannity is cute in a smarmy sort of way.

Boortz used to be a funny asshole back before he got syndicated, now he's just an asshole.

9. he sure is - I listen to him during my lunch-time walk daily

but - he prides himself on how nasty he can be. Couple of years ago, he claimed it was in his contract that a clause in his contract stated he had to bring in a certain number of complaint calls. I believe it - he is a class-A jerk.

3. And between the three of them they don't have one day in military service

to our country. They only thing they have is a very stupid audience who are easily led around and couldn't care if their three dickheads lie and mislead them every day. beck does have his own fluffer though, his trusted sidekick Stuie!

7. One other thing I have noticed.

I don't listen often, I usually get my info second hand from sites like MediaMatters, but it looks like when a new set of RW TP's begin to circulate they all seem to start the TP's simultaneously. So either they have frequent conference calls or they all get the same directives at the same time from the RNC or the Heritage Foundation or both.
