I know the difference between facts and opinions - I know it's hard for the anti-intellectual Republicans-lovers to accept... but there are those of us conservatives that think the bombastic morons screaming from the right do only harm, not good.

A - I've watched almost every Cobert Report, and don't share your opinion that it is mocking talking heads or opinion shows of any kind - it's humor.
B - If you're talking about Chris Matthews, he's a Dem (ex-asst. to Tip O'Neal) and a lib
Scarborough is on MSNBC - not available in Atlanta, no opinion. Ditto Carlson.
If you think Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly are "bombastic morons screaming", you don't spend much time listening/watching them. Nothing could be less accurate. Much of the MWODP continually tells the lie that they are "bombastic morons screaming", but I urge you to listen/watch and form your own opinion.
Ann Coulter is a unique case. Her only income is book sales and speeches, and she has a real talent for biting political comment. It's biting, and not "bombastic morons screaming".
Any examples of "like to play fast and very loose with "facts" or "reality" by these people?
