What Good Is Neo-Conservative Talk Radio?
By Jeff Zastrow
I often cruise the AM talk radio dial to see what the mainstream “conservatives” such
as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Mike Gallagher are talking about. I have to admit
that I still find listening to them to be entertaining. Listening to them now is a
completely different experience than it was for me ten years ago. I began listening
to Rush during the Monica years and before that I never even had a passing interest in
politics. I had a job that allowed me to plan my drive time to coincide with the show
and listened almost every day. Over the next couple of years I began expanding and
found different shows like Michael Medved, and Jay Severon. My Appetite for talk
radio kept growing and I would search the AM dial at night to see what shows I could
catch on distant stations that I could only receive at night. I knew the truth was out
the somewhere and I was determined to find it.
After listening to every talk show I could bring in for a couple years I noticed that
all these guys had something in common. Every one of them would contradict themselves
depending upon the political tide of the day. I began to listen for these
contradictions and when I would hear one I would dial up the number and nail the host
to the wall. I remember a time when Rush would shout down anyone that called our form
of government a Democracy. Some time later I noticed he was calling it a Democracy and
when I got through to his show and confronted him on the importance of telling people
we live in a Republic and not a Democracy all he could do was agree. The next day he
was right back at saying the D word.
Although I kept listening and sometimes became furious and shouted at the radio, I
realized that these people were just entertainers looking for more market share. I
kept listening to them but now that I had a new found interest in politics I began
reading everything I could lay my hands on about the history of our Republic and what
is being done to tear it down by our enemies within.
I should be thankful for these neo-cons because without them sparking my interest in
what’s going on in the world, I would still be just another sleeping sheeple. I have
to believe that many others have taken the same path as myself in the process of
becoming a free thinker and much more enlightened. Unfortunately that is where my
thanks to “conservative” talk radio stops.
I think they are doing much harm by getting people interested and then just feeding
them more and more useless information about the war between the two socialist
political parties daily quarrelling about whether to raise taxes by one percent or
five while they both only pay lip service to the Law of the Land.
Think how much of a difference these mainstream talk shows could make if they were
true patriots. The real news of what’s going on in our country is a whole lot more
interesting than whether or not the Senate majority leader should step down because of
some blown out of proportion remark he made. These people have a chance to make a
real difference and they are blowing it. Maybe they are trying to blow it. There
were unsubstantiated rumors going around not long ago that Rush was a member of the
Council of Foreign Relations.
Hopefully talk radio listeners will search for the truth and not just settle for what
Rush or Sean gives them.
