No Michael Medved or Glenn Beck??? I think Medved is my favorite. He's so dang smart and really gets people going. Beck - he just makes me laugh most of the time but is usually right on with some of his stuff.

O Reilly or Jon Stewart

just depends on if I want hard issues or a good laugh

Hannity isn't objective enough, his views are often myopic and he sounds like an ass

even when OReilly is wrong he's well thought out, and he's not a straight ticket kinda guy, if Bush is fuckin up he'll be the first to call him out

Michael Savage!!!!!!!!

Just kidding, I find him egotistical, and overbearing.
Years ago I liked Rush, but it only took about 3 weeks to hear everything he would ever say! Don't have to listen anymore, because it is all DITTO.

O'Rielly used to be interesting when he got on the air, now he's a blowhard headed towards Geraldoesque douchebaggery.

I like Lou Dobbs, he loves America, and makes sense, without being a spectacle.

WM, are you Mormon? Just curious. Lots of Mormons in Idaho. Very Happy

Yeah....Dobbs is great, but a bit too aggressive. Pro-immigration types hate him, and have stereotyped him along the lines of Billow. Speaking of Billow, he's fighting for the right cause, but has succumbed to the absurd demands of his ego. The success of his show has definitely gone to his head. Footage of him when he was younger, and still biting at the bone, shows a much different guy -- low-key, sympathetic, quiet.:thumbdown:

Ditto for me - occasionally H & C but as soon as they begin over-shouting I'm gone - same with O'Reilly.

Interesting. I grew up in two places -- Colorado and Montana. Intriguing constrasts, regarding Mormon evangelization. Mormons couldn't penetrate Colorado Mountain Hippy Culture -- way too strong. But......they found easy prey to the north, first in Idaho, and then beyond. No offense. Just observations from a Catholic dude who was there, once upon a time. Very Happy

Yeah....what a name. Do you think it's real? I don't. He's probably something like 'Barny Scruggs' in real life. Very Happy

Yeah.....Hannity has a tendency to scream, "You....you....you LIBERALS, you." That can get old, but I like him. He gives those bastards hell. :thumbup:

@westernmom,

Screaming? Savage takes the cake for that. He gives me a headache! Bill gets too full of himself sometimes. Hannity is cute and I agree with him but he doesn't have great come-backs like Micheal Medved. With both Hannity and Medved you know that they are both conservative. I like that Medved is Jewish but is so supportive of a Christian society. Colmes - poor guy. Do they get any homelier with no backbone?

Actually the early settlers of Idaho were mostly Mormans. I was born in Montana! One of the most beautiful states on the western side! I also have a lot of connection with Colorado. My daughter served a mission in the Denver area. We spent a lot of time with our horse business over there as well. Gotta love us westerners! YeeHaw!
