So here's my third installment in what has unwittingly become my "shock jock" series.

I promise, I'll quit after this! Maybe. Depends on how much I feel the need to cyber-stalk these guys over the weekend.

Neal Boortz, anyone?

Yeah, me either.

Enter Wikipedia.

He's a radio veteran of almost 3 decades working in the Atlanta area. He used to be a registered Republican but now he's a bona fide Libertarian. He's also of the school of thought that liberals are the root of all evil, having written what I'm sure is highly entertaining prose entitled The Terrible Truth About Liberals. I'll give him this: He wants to see an end to the War on Drugs. Plus he was an attorney and had this to say about the profession: "I thought passing the bar exam would be a great moment .. it pales when compared with the day you escape that profession." But then again, he also says the public schools are "tax payer funded child abuse." And he tends to go off on Muslims. And not in the "love thy neighbor" kind of way, either.

He's obviously educated. And a pilot.

And a yahoo.

Neal Boortz on the victims of hurricane Katrina:

"That wasn't the cries of the downtrodden. That's the cries of the useless, the worthless. New Orleans was....a city of parasites...." (00:45 in the video)

He goes on for a while about it if you can stomach it.

But wait! There's more!

He is also of the belief that should there be a pending national crisis, the rich should be saved before the poor. The rich, you see, aren't a "drag on society."

This isn't thoughtful commentary. Or punditry. Or intellectualism.

This is bile.

And what bothers me more than the fact that someone would actually say these words on public airways is that someone can actually make a living saying these words on the public airways day after day after day.

Happy weekend, everyone. Thanks for the nice words about my cat the corpse. Sigh. ->
