SURE! I understand you only want to support a Repblican but SERIOUSLY? This republican? SHE'S AN IDIOT!

Hey Earl believes the same thing! He even said there were dinosaurs on Noah's Ark.

But seriously, can you cite a source where Sarah Palin has made such a statement verbal or in writing?

I think its a huge mistake for the Democrats to bring anything up about religion, as it brings up that Obama was schooled in a muslim country, had a muslin father and step father, and of course the Rev Wright "God Damn America, US of KKK A." I don't think its necessarily fair since at the time he was just a kid and I think Obama probably thought Rev Wright was an asshole, but Obama had to kiss a lot of rings to work his way up in Chicago Politics.

This News Program recently showed footage of Obama admitting he was a Muslin.

[sailor]

isn't this really a political thread masquerading as a radio buddays thread (which should then be merged)?

[GreatAmericanZero]

Anthony bums me out when the talk about politics. Its not that I care that he supports McCain or that hes a republican, its just that hes such a predictable republican with such the "predictable republican" response.

I like channel 202 because its original and honest. And I really feel like the hosts give you an honest perspective that contradicts the other phony radio personalities. When going down the political road, I believe that Opie, Norton and Ronnie B give an honest opinion about what they feel is going on politically. I don't always agree with them, but I know I can't get their opinions anywhere else..they feel honest.

Anthony's opinion politically is phoney. He is just routing for his team. He wants the republican party to win the election because thats his team, and he just lies on the air and just says random stuff to convince people to vote republican. Its a shame.

This is some of the stuff Anthony has said. About Sarah Palin he said "Its ok if you have an inexperienced person as president, because they will just hire experienced people around them". Meanwhile he shit on Obama for being "inexperienced", wouldnt the defense of Sarah Palin also defend Obama? Not to "rah rah republican Anthony".

Another thing he says is "whoever is president makes no difference on the economy". Then why is he now saying how McCain's view on the economy is the only way to vote and Obama's will fuck this country up?

I really hope Obama wins the election just so he can tax the SHIT out of Anthony. Make Anthony afford 3 less guns next year. Make Anthony be in a place where he has other things to talk about on the air then "why is pool is taking so long to be put in". Anthony is a rich man, he is using his radio show to convince poorer people to vote for the candidate that would keep him slightly richer (that whole "anyone who achieves this American dream gets raped for it" speech he does should convince anyone who makes under a million dollars a year to vote Obama).

Anthony also just says random things like the other day on 9/11 "Is this Obama's first visit to the word trade center? if it is i find that disgusted and offensive and calculated". He has no idea if it is Obama's first visit, but he just said it on a national radio show. He had no problem with the RNC showing images of 9/11 to help their candidate win, but Obama going down there all of a sudden hes a piece of shit?

The other thing I wanted to bring up is the "N(beep)" Anthony does when talking about Obama. Its the beep he plays whenever he says the word "Nigger". I don't mind the word nigger, people calling eachother nigger, its all good. But multiple times every single show he has to call Obama a nigger repeatedly? It doesn't offend me, but its soooooooo forced. He doesn't even attempt to be clever about it anymore, its just calling Obama a nigger. We get it, hes black. so what?

wow, this thread gave me a little rant first thing in the morning. Didn't know i had it in me

Yeah, to me it isn't even a matter of agreeing or disagreeing with him. It's just stale. Whenever the topic of Obama comes up, you know exactly what he's going to say. It's just so hacky.

And the whole "beeped n-bomb" gimmick is so overused too. He'll derail topics about completely unrelated matters to stick it in, often grinding the show to a halt.

[oldladyfacepuncher]

Yeah. I thought the exact same thing when he did his Obama Ground Zero rant. He used to be able to come up with an interesting point or two, even though I don't agree with him. Now it's just the same old ignorant cookie cutter GOP horse shit.

[YourAmishDaddy]

Which is funny. The only way to approach this is from that old overused but appropriate perspective. At one time Ant was my favorite. He was a real, regular guy who ended up in the business and loved what he did. The man has true talent, and is one of the quickest wits the radio industry has ever seen.

All this is granted. The question is with all of that why does it seem like Ant has just lost any passion or creativity? It's amazing to me. We all have our crutches but Ant has just allowed his to run his entire on-air persona.

It's almost like watching the molecules break apart from our Anthony and then watching them re-form into Howard Stern Jr. And it really is amazing to watch. Even with his shades of regular guy Ant. He's on Paltalk, he hangs with the fans, well a selected few anyway, he seems to be more unapproachable day by day.

He's brilliant on real topics. He's shown that. But then it gets into this weird contorted view of everyone out to get him. If I were a listener who is black and I went to an event I'd be afraid to even talk to the guy for fear some repressed memory or whatever it is overtook him and caused him to shoot me.

He has a passionate dislike for black people in general. When it's strange when some of the most ardent defenders of the show, and Imus' were black like D.L. and Patrice.

His political skills are twisted. OK, now if Obama gets in all ofa sudden this half-black man will all of a sudden turn into James from Good Times and excommunicate everyone white from the country?

Or taxes. Hey, Anthony. We all know social programs and the like do cost money. No one will argue that, but do they cost as much as a war in Iraq and Afghanistan that costs:

Per Month - $12.3 billion
Per Week - $2.9 billion
Per Day - $410 million
Per Hour - $17 million
Per Minute - $284,722
Per Second - $4,745
“The Cost of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Other Global War on Terror Operations Since 9/11,” Congressional Research Service (updated February 8, 2008). (http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/RL33110.pdf)


Or when the Republicans have borrowed so much that our dollar has been devalued in essence right off the top because of devalued currency it's like a 50% tax burden because our money is worth half as much is that fiscally alright with you? Did you know that statistically there are more white single women on welfare than any other demographic? Or that Affirmative Action has benefited that same demographic more than any other?

We know you have money. Well some money. Compared to the top ten percent of wealthy. Mainly people you've never even heard of, like Sheldon Adelson who has a fortune of 28 billion, or some you have like Warren Buffet, who has a fortune of 52 billion. That is the real wealthy in America.

In relative terms, Mr. Cumia compared to those people you're simply "nigger rich."

I doubt he'll ever realize it though. And will never change. The point is the show is great, always will be, just spare us some of that ego already.

[celery]

Yeah. I thought the exact same thing when he did his Obama Ground Zero rant. He used to be able to come up with an interesting point or two, even though I don't agree with him. Now it's just the same old ignorant cookie cutter GOP horse shit.

Agreed - this struck me as the same kind of "phony outrage" they complain about.

[YourAmishDaddy]

And everything Obama does is a disaster to him. And bashing the guy's wife. Who when spoke at the convention from all the talk about her came across as nothing like she was portrayed. Maybe Michelle Obama has a point. That certain elements of this nation are mean and spiteful. Look at what people like Ant say about her.

[CofyCrakCocaine]

Anthony's been incredibly unfunny in regards to his rantings and ravings about Obama ever since this election really picked up steam. He infuriates the comedians who come in and disagree with him- it makes for interesting radio when the comics make brilliant points, then it's shit radio when Anthony says "I WANT MY MONEY!!!" - that's funny once or twice, but he beats every political discussion to death with his stupid rantings. I think it's the base selfishness underlining his politics that's turning everyone off lately. May or may not be why Patrice isn't in studio that often anymore- if it is, that's a damn shame.

Keep in mind he's always hated Democrats. Was how he was raised. So this isn't anything new- he just doesn't make good points anymore. Here's the division: at WNEW, Muhammed Ali's racial jokes- had me laughing so hard that my ribs hurt. On XM, the Good Times discussion. Ok, that's alright... sorta excessive. Today, the aformentioned Obama is an N (beep) segment that he launches into every day the past several months. I have to shut down the radio whenever he goes into another O'Reilly-esque ranting.

It was better when he used the inappropriate bell. At least there was some subtlety and humor in that.

[YourAmishDaddy]

It's not even The Inappropriate bell anymore. It's almost exclusively used when referring to blacks. And racial humor is fine. Racial humor is great, when done as humor. As Jimmy says himself shit like that done in spite or viciousness isn't funny. And that is what it has become.

Ifully expect Ant to put in an ISDN line one day. Hole himself in his house and do the show from there, and one day the authorities will end up storming the place like the Branch Davidian.

[celery]

Anthony also just says random things like the other day on 9/11 "Is this Obama's first visit to the word trade center? if it is i find that disgusted and offensive and calculated". He has no idea if it is Obama's first visit, but he just said it on a national radio show. He had no problem with the RNC showing images of 9/11 to help their candidate win, but Obama going down there all of a sudden hes a piece of shit?


I'd be willing to bet Obama's visited the WTC before, it just wasn't national news before he became a serious presidential candidate.

This is disgusting - someone should really call Ant out on this.

[CofyCrakCocaine]

Maybe it would be funnier if he was more (ech) broad-minded in his racism. He made fun of Italians, Polish, and Hispanics plenty of times in the past... but now it's exclusively black people. We get it. You're an Italian from Long Island- you all have to think alike for some reason. :wacko:

[CofyCrakCocaine]

Bob Kelly hit the nail on the head calling him Peter Pan... Anthony's mid-life crisis evidently is doing something to him wherein he's reverting to impudent adolescence- as such his points are about as valid and rational as that of a rebelling teenager's.

[YourAmishDaddy]

Well he's Sicilian from Long Island. Which basically means he's more black than he admits.

I think everyone know the Obama is a N(Beep) segments are getting tired. The sad part is nobody who matters (Opie and Jimmy) will on air say Alright we get it enough....

I think its because they just wanna keep the show rolling along without any bumps. Anthonys fragile ego will fully flip-out if Jimmy or Opie tell him enough. Ant stops doing the show and they all go down the drain. Of course the interns, producers etc laugh when he says it but they need a check to so who could blame them.

What about it? Lets say one morning Opie just turns around and says "Enough we get it your a racist who hates Obama..."? Does Ant walk? Is they show even affected?

I think he will def flip out, nobody in his yes man world calls him on shit so that would send him out of his mind. Remember he flipped at Opie when the whole "sex tape" thing happened when all Opie does is listen to Ant bitch all the time.

Wow. That's quite a scenario you invented. I know you're offended that ANYONE would EVER say they aren't voting for Obama, but you need to get ahold of yourself. Don't get so upset that someone doesn't agree with you. You should be happy that 99% of the media refuses to ask Obama or Biden a tough question.
God forbid someone should tell jokes on a comedy radio show. Maybe you should just listen to Air America from now on.

Since were making assumptions about people, please give Bill O'Reilly my best and keep on laughing at Nigger jokes in your pick-up truck hayseed.

[MacVittie]

The two biggest things that I ignore on the O&A show are sports talk and politics talk. O&A often fall into the typical sports broadcaster mode whenever there's a big sports story and just go negative on it. I'm tired of Jimmy trashing A-Rod. You're not a real sports fan if you're rooting for a negative outcome and don't have a positive one as well. I get that you're upset that he's never won anything in his career (other than multiple MVPs), but saying that you hope he never does is pointless. Just ignore baseball if you feel that way and then you'll never know if he wins a championship or not.

In terms of politics, I think GreatAmericanZero hit it dead on. Ant's just trying to drum up support for him team with bogus speculation and tired rhetoric. He says he doesn't like Michelle Obama, and can only really base his judgment on her appearance. Maybe it's something he plays up because he knows that it fires up a lot of the listeners. He and Nick DiPaolo should do a show about how white men have no rights in the country.

[Foster]

I think the whole "n-word" beeping bit is old too, but you have to spread the blame around. Anthony's rant always get started with Opey asking "Ant, what do you think about this Obama thing?" knowing full well that it will all go in the same direction as any other day.
There is no need to bring this subject up everyday.

[Bob Impact]

I've said this a couple of times, but Jim Norton is the biggest fucking idiot when it comes to sports. He has constantly railed the Yankees and their 200 million dollar payroll, and his excuse is "you need pitching, stupid!"

And again, the Yankees have lost two of their best pitchers for an extended period of time, one of which was gone for the season and the other was pretty much put on mop-up duty.

Norton knows NOTHING about baseball and lets the fact that Jeter snubbed him for a hotter chick completely cloud his judgment when it comes to the Yankees.

I won't lie and say that this is the kind of thing that made me stop listening to O&A, but whenever I hear clips like this that are so right wing and/or racist I can't help but think I made the right choice.

My best guess is he meant "device-ive", to say Obama engineered and planned this out. He is a high school drop-out trying to use big words.

The show is still listenable because of everyone else, but I have very little respect for Ant or his opinions - he's a fucking tool and I think one of his thinly-veiled racist comments will eventually bring the show down.

I'm probably in the minority here (though I'd be in the majority at another board) but I think Jimmy is sooooooo not the problem with the show. Sure, he talks shit about things he's clueless about sometimes, but he's a funny dude and he's funny even when making bad jokes. I'm not a Yankees fan, so I guess I'm not as bothered by it is you are.

Why are the media so smitten with Obama? Journalists have an affinity for the Democratic nominee in part because he is a wordsmith and they make a living manipulating words and symbols, so they have a special appreciation for his gifts. But another part of the reason is, yes, plain old liberal bias. McCain was a press darling when he was a maverick dissenting from the Republican Party from points left. Obama has become one by succeeding as a down-the-line liberal. When McCain decided this time around to court conservative Republican voters as much as liberal reporters, the coverage of him became more critical. Notice a pattern?

I have a feeling you're ok with Ron making racist jokes b/c he's by and large liberal (but closer to middle of the road). I wonder how long before Fez and ESD have to step in and tell Ron "hey maaaaan it's not funny anymore....we get it.....earl is black.....we get it.....obama is black..." just like what'll happen on O&A, right? words hurt, right?
The media is not tough on Obama. You came up with ONE example in how many months of campaigning? and that was all driven by a fellow democrat - Hillary. It's hard to ignore overtly proud racist rantings.
Obama has no experience, but it's not acknowledged by the mass liberal media.
Palin has no experience (but more than Obama) and suddenly that's a problem.
I DO think Palin is insane. I'm not voting for either party.

The point of everyone's complaint I think is that Anthony's recent spurts of racial humor is one-tiered, boring, and lacking in good humor. Ron's on the other hand is a fine mixture of blunt, subtle, and humorous... he repeats himself now and then, but he doesn't do it ad nauseum the way Anthony's been doing it this past year. If you cannot distinguish the difference in quality of the racial jokes between the two then you are out of your fuggin' mind. Anthony and Ron are different sounding not because one's liberal and the other's conservative. If people on this board are upset because of liberal ideologies, that's their problem- and something you should be bitching about in the politics forum, not here.

Yep. Ron's racial humor is clearly based in irony and handled in a pretty good-natured manner. Anthony's, on the other hand, seems to come from genuine bigotry. Lately, his attempts at racial "humor" are so lazy that they're merely just racists comments without any punchline.

I blame the rest of the staff too, for humoring him. They gave Line of the Day to his "Kike and the Mad Dog" comment.

I was shocked today when he went after Whoopi Goldberg for "always bringing up race". I was really hoping Opie would call him out on it.

Anthony has lost his mind. Everybody knows the Z06 Corvette is the finest sportscar in production today.

TURN THE FUCKING TRACTION CONTROL ON NEXT TIME!


Traction Control for street, turn it off on the track. 'Nuff said.

(And if it is getting as shitty mileage as he says it is, there was definetly something wrong with the car.)

Other's in this thread have made clear how Anthony and Ron have different racial humor.

I can't believe you think the only heat Obama has taken during this election was the Wright fiasco, I only pointed it out because that example BLATANTLY dismisses the falsehood that the media doesn't criticize or scrutinize Obama.

And Hillary Clinton is responsible for Wright's comments being played on an endless loop on nearly every media outlet in this country? Um, ok.

Also, I'd like you to prove that the "mass liberal media" (does that include Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Matt Drudge who btw are parts of the mass media) ignored Obama's lack of experience? If anything, the media downplays Obama's relevant experience in order to push the "Experience vs Inexperience" narrative.

Obama has taken his shots from the media. How often do we hear about the "American's cling to guns and religions" comments? Or the "lipstick" comments? Or how Obama was on vacation while the situation in Georgia was unfolding? Or that Michelle Obama isn't proud to be an American? Or flag pins? Or not putting his hand over his heart during the national anthem? Or his not visiting hospitalized troops in Germany? Or his relationship to Rezko/Ayers?

What you said is an outright lie.

What are you talking about? How can someone have no experience but have more than someone else?

What does that mean?

3 years as a community organizer growing an organization from a staff of 1 to 13 and a budget from $70,000 to $400,000.The first black President of the Harvard Law Review. Creating a voter registration drive that registered 150,000 new African Amercian voters. 12 years as a Constitutional Law professor.Nearly 8 more years as a State Senator representing a district with over 750,000 people. Chairman of the state Senate's Health and Human Services committee. Nearly 4 years in the United States Senate representing a state of nearly 13 million people. Sponsoring 131 bills and serving on the Foreign Affairs, Environment and Public Works and Veteran's Affairs committees.

Yeah you're right that pales in comparison to Sarah Palin's

4 years on the city council. 6 years as the mayor of a town with less than 7,000 people. 20 months as the governor of a state with 650,000 people.

Oh I forgot she was a sportscaster too. And her state is right next to Russia. You can see it from some of the windows even.

Oh she's the "Commander-In-Chief" of the Alaska National Guard. Of which she's never given one order to. And nevertheless they're federalized anyway.

And she likes Ebay.

Wow. Just wow.

Sarah Palin is a cunt. Everybody calls her a MILF, but I think MILAR is more appropriate.

The fact is that noone on 202 speaks about politics in an educated fahion, Ronny B even has trouble with it.

Maybe not in an educated fahion, but I've found his to be the most thoughtful of anyone on that station, and many times much more thorough than on the "white noise" of the rest of the midday talk radio echo chambers.
