Letter to Stephanie Miller
This letter is from a listener to Stephanie Miller which was read on the air!

Mama and the Mooks:

I haven’t listened to the show in a couple of days, because I figured I’d hear a lot of moaning and groaning from the Mooks over Eric Holder’s decision to try Khalid Sheik Muhammad in a military tribunal at Gitmo, that it was yet ANOTHER way Obama has disappointed them and every Democrat living, dead or unborn.

I hope they didn’t…I really, REALLY hope they didn’t — but you know what? If they did, SO WHAT? Don’t get me wrong, I love those guys….I really, REALLY love those guys….but as far as the usual complaints that Obama hasn’t done this, Obama hasn’t done that — well they’re just part of the WATBs (Whiny Ass Titty Babies) who make up this new generation of progressives.

Think about it: Obama gets a historic health care law passed, the WATBs are mad because it didn’t include public option, never mind that the bill damn near DIDN’T GET PASSED. Obama gets a massive economic stimulus bill passed, the WATBs say it was too small, forgetting it was CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRATS who scaled it back. Obama gets a historic financial regulation system passed, the WATBs says it’s inadequate, even though congressional supporters say the bill was IMPROVED as it came closer to passage. Obama ends combat operations in Iraq, the WATBs complain about the escalation of the war in Afghanistan, which he said he was going to do in the campaign. Obama signs an executive order for hopsitals who accept Medicare and Medicaid to grant visitation and decision making rights to same sex couples, but the WATBs ignore it and focus all of their attention the fact that he didn’t overturn DADT wtih the stroke of a pen. Obama gets a payroll tax cut and an extension of unemployment benefits after negotiations with Republicans last December, and the WATBs complain about extending the Bush tax cuts for two years, without getting mad at CONGRESSIONAL DEMOCRATS who chickened out and didn’t vote for a plan to end the tax cuts. And now with Sheikh Muhammad and Gitmo, I’m sure the WATBs got into a thumb sucking fit about that, without, again, getting made at CONGRESSIONAL LAWMAKERS who chickened out and didn’t give him the money to close the joint down.

The rest of the letter is here....http://blackwaterdog.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/the-floor-is-yours/

2. While you're at it add a request that she stop talking over her guests just to
get her laugh line in. Drives me nuts. This morning she had comedian/actor Larry Miller on and a couple of times he was obviously delivering a 'bit', and she kept jumping in. Carson was and Letterman is pros at this -- standing back and letting the comedian deliver his lines. :eyes:

But other than MY rant, good letter! :thumbsup:

4. +1. about talking over her guests. Drives me nuts too. Do the joke after
the interview is over, it should be just as funny then. I love Steph, but she's not a policy heavyweight, which is why I only listen on Wedsnesdays now, when Hal Sparks is on. :hi:

6. More delusional nonsense
from someone who has obviously not been paying very good attention to Obama's record over the past 2 years. Reading shit like this makes me so fucking depressed.
