I listened to Mark Levin for the first time the other night. For an hour. A wasted hour. I had never even heard of him until he attacked Tom Woods and Tom demolished him. All Levin did was to rail against Obama and the liberals (how hard is that) and talk about all the horrible labor laws, environmental regulations, and taxes under Obama. The labor laws, environmental regulations, and taxes are hardly any different under Obama than they were under Bush. Heck, the Social Security tax rate is even lower. Levin also complained about how Obama had the power to have a pizza flown in from anywhere, as if Bush didn’t likewise have the same power. Levin, Limbaugh, Hannity, O’Reilly—all these conservative talk show hosts are all the same: conservatives good, liberals bad; Republicans good, Democrats bad. I also noticed that, like Neal Boortz, Levin can stretch a five-minute talk about something into an hour.
