Oreilly and Dobbs would still be there, at least.
Apparently in Democrat circles, not agreeing with them and expressing your opinions and views is being a "hate merchant".

I have never heard either Limbaugh, Coulter or Hannity say anything hateful.

Coulter is "dead on" with her opinions, and she does her research. Pretty hard to refute her on anything. Facts speak for themselves.

Rush too. He exposes the left for what/who they are. And he's right.

Sorry, but you're just plain wrong. Perhaps you should listen to them for once, instead of just repeating what you hear from the liberal media.

I'm not a fan of either, but I do find the Rush Limbaugh seems to have more of a coherent philosophy that he can back up with a reasonable argument, whether or not you agree with him. Hannity, on the other hand, always seems to fall back on just complaining about "those liberals" without really presenting an argument in any coherent manner.

What they have in common is they're about 100x more successful than you'll ever be.

I agree. I think that's why I can stomach Limbaugh (and sometimes find him entertaining). You can tell he's thought a lot about his beliefs, and I like that. Hannity is a living breathing Republican talking point.

Anyone who can elicit from smug liberals the amount of hyperbole, outrage, and gnashing of teeth these 3 can, must be cherished.
Can almost hear the blood vessels popping and bodies dropping.

Obviously, both Limbaugh and Hannity wanted to become rich, and spouting the philosophy of greed and the benefits to society of individuals piling up individual wealth was their ticket to their own newly begotten, media-facilitated individual wealth.

They're both dug addicts? Oh no, thats just Rush, but I bet Hannitys wife is all spun out on painkillers and uppers living in a twisted little world on Long Island. She's two vodka and tonics away from Ellyn Burstyn in "Requiem for a Dream".

Both of them will never criticize Israel under any circumstances whatsoever. I don't know why, do you?

I think Hannity knows if he did, he'd get fired by Murdoch. I don't ever listen to Rush so I don't know what his fear is.

I didn't write the point of my post on my forehead, SO YOU DIDN'T GET IT.

The point is: DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE OF BELIEVING that the two bloviators are INTERESTED in the Body Politic. They're on the airwaves TO MAKE MONEY.
