That's what Al Franken, Randi Rhodes, and some of the other far-left wing nuts out there are. They piss me off.

We all know the analogy of the blind men trying to describe an elephant. One feels the elephant's trunk and says it's a snake, another feels its leg and says an elephant is a tree trunk. Still another feels its ear and says an elephant is a leathery fan. The moral is that they're all right from their own limited point of view.

When Rush Limbaugh pioneered nationally syndicated talk radio in the 90's, different groups reacted in different ways. Some saw Rush as the sole voice of America that had been stifled by a left-wing media. Others saw Rush as a flash in the pan. Still others saw him as an off the chart right-winger who merely speaks to his ideological choir. But what did the left wing nuts think?

Enter Al Franken and Randi Rhodes... When these people examined Rush in their phenomenally limited perspective, they did so by sticking their arms up the proverbial elephant's butt. Instantly they "realized" Rush was nothing more than a giant asshole. But they didn't stop there. With their narrow view or Rush and their pathetic ignorance of the America's public opinion, they inadvertently epitomized two clichés: 1) the person they hated controlled them, and 2) they became the person they hated. This is evidenced by their respective talk radio programs: The Al Franken Show, and the Randi Rhodes Show.

But since they mistook Rush for the asshole instead of the entire elephant, their syndication service, Air America Radio, is a financial disaster. The free market allowed Rush to sign a $285 million contract. In contrast, Air America bounces checks even though they are funded by billionaire George Soros. To make matters oh-so-much more worse, they're actually asking for donations from listeners. If they weren't oozing with so much vitriol, I might actually feel sorry for them.

Al Franken and Randi Rhodes haven't got a clue what drives talk radio. That's because they're one-dimensional assholes.
