Back when I listened to right wing talk radio on a regular basis I was shocked somebody as stupid as Sean Hannity could be successful. He was so obviously mentally subpar compared to Limbaugh and O'Reilly I just didn't get it.

That's why he's so successful, though.  He's no smarter than his audience.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

One thing we have to realize is that propaganda is at its most effective not when you cleverly trick people, but when you program them to actively and constantly trick themselves.  Once you do that, you just have to continuously feed them mindless talking points, and they'll take it from there.

What's your impression of him?

He is one of those guys who thinks money and corruption deserves the same protections as speech so not really my kind of guy :P

But how radical is he in other aspects? My understanding is not too terribly radical so hopefully he will do a decent job.

Did you get your bouquet of carried-to-term stillborns yet?  Or is it a going to be a sampler giftbox this season?

From what I've read, Gorsuch's big thing is sanctity of life.

Gorsuch will stand firmly for big money in politics and elsewhere. The swamp will be pleased.

Just because he's semi-smart on tv doesn't make for a good judge.

The alt-Reich is spazzing out. Trump is under control of the JEWS and shit like that. Twitter is so fun sometimes.

It's hilarious to think that Bannon actually believed that he would be able to win against the family.
