A Great Use for Right-Wing Talk...

Sorry to knock the Weiner thread off, (I'll bump it later for ya!)

Still heartbroken for all the survivors of the tornado outbreaks. And this little blog entry caught my eye.. ANY good news out of these disasters is a relief..

"For more than two weeks after the tornado, the four Tuscaloosa Clear Channel stations preempted their normal fare of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and top 40 songs to serve as a clearing house for relief efforts. Gigi South, the local market manager for Tuscaloosa Clear Channel, says that it was her decision to begin, and continue, the relief-oriented simulcasts."

Just think what kind of good it would do to preempt those clowns permanently.

It's great to see people pulling together during such tribulations, even if it uses the lower intestinal tract that is right-wing radio as a conduit of good deeds. And, I'm sure Limbaugh will make it sound as though the world really lost something important, because his mouth was off the air..................Pompous ass.
