Some people seem to think that these three rule the country and are making laws. The fact of the matter is that they are entertainers and are expressing opinions which they have the right to do under the first amendment (the same as with Michael Moore) If you don't like what they have to say don't listen.

Shaneladd,
You talk about how they call names and demonize those who disagree with them and then proceed to call Ann Coulter a filthy name. Sorry but you lost your credability.

Liberal left wing Democrats try to destroy anything and anyone who does not agree with them. Just listen to the speeches of the Democrats running for President.

I just love watching the Dems/Libs get their panties in a bunch over what the people you've mentioned talk about.
For years, the Dems/Libs have called the GOP and Cons all sorts of horrible names and got away with it.
Now, someone like Ann is giving them a taste of their own medicine and its driving Dems/Libs nuts!
And the other posters here are right, the Dems/Libs can't stand the light being shined on their plans, point out the facts that are usually left out of Dems/Libs comments.

If that were true, then people have no reason to cry and whine about the "liberal media" or "drive-by media" conspiracy.
Anyone who is in the media and has the opportunity to alter another person's perception, clearly has some power, even if it is firing up their own choir.
But usually, I just ignore their ranting, and put in a CD. I have better things to do with my life than listening to people constatly spew hatred and dividing America, so they can make money off of it.

I don't wring my hands and cry about Coulter, Limbaugh and Hannity.
As a progressive Democrat and as a vet who has been there, done that and bought the T-shirt, I resent their belittling and making fun of any who do not agree with them.
If they were interested in honest dialogue with those who disagreed with them, I would not resent them.
They have the right to say whatever they like and I support that. Why should I not have the right to disagree with them without being indirectly accused of hand wringing and crying? That seems pretty stupid to me. Oh well, I guess that we will never cure stupid.

The problem is that these people don't only disagree with what they have to say, they disagree with their right to say it. The fact that people like Coulter or Limbaugh or Hannity do get attention and are listened to drives them crazy.

Listen to Hannity's show and then come on here and look at the questions.. You'll see a lot of his talking points.. They have a lot more power than you give them credit for when a good percentage of Americans take what they say as truths and vote on it.. Without Hannity and Rush, I don't see Bush getting elected, especially twice..

It is because they are so nasty, rude, and crude, especially that biatch, Ann Coulter! She is the worst of the bunch. She insults and demonizes those who disagree with her. She is a polarizing person as are the other two. We need more civil discourse about the issues and less name-calling. Hannity is a bull who just isn't very smart, and Limbo spreads rumors and tells lies.

Liberals just hate the fact that Conservative talk show hosts, whether on TV or radio ,always have the biggest audience as well as the highest ratings.. And of course, Ann pretty much lives on the NY best seller list with her books..
Oh, and good point about 'if you don't like what they say,don't listen."..If I don't like something I see or hear, I turn the station. It's pretty easy!

So who do you know that considers those ididots a threat to anyone but themselves? Most people I know don't listen to them and the few that do laugh at the stupidity that they spew. How much hate can come from any one person is what I hear from them. They shake their heads in disbelief that someone would be so ignorant and say such hateful claptrap.

Well my Q for libs, is if conservative commentators have no power, why do their arguments silence people daily and carry so much weight? Why is Rush's show #1 on the radio???
