To get things slightly back on topic...have you ever listened to Michael Savage (Savage Nation) on the radio? He has a pretty popular evening show. Used to have a TV show on MSNBC before he screamed something about how he hoped all the gay "sodomites" would "get AIDS and die." He was fired for some reason.
I listened to his show a few times and heard comments like "turd-world nations" to describe developing nations with a non-white populous.
Currently Rush Limbaugh is calling Barack Obama "Half-rican American". I guess thats funny if you're a racist.
Bill O'Reilly has his famous "Paris Business Review" lie about the billions of dollars his France boycott has cost France since they wouldn't support the Iraq invasion.
Are these all examples of "eloquent, polite, intelligent, thoughtful" conversation?
I have never heard of the show you mentioned in the OP, and I haven't listened to Air America is a couple years. I mostly listen to NPR driving to and from work. When at work, I listen to my "Dropkick Murphey's" radio station from Pandora.com...everyone should check out that website.

I mean, this is America. Everybody loves seeing lesbians go at it, as long as they are both hot and not in a monogamous, legally sanctioned relationship.
