Speakeasy

Posted: January 20, 2013 - 7:33pm

Speakeasy

We often escape the summer desert heat by going nearby to your area in Minnesota.

One of the main reasons is that the Speakeasy program is available. What a

breath of fresh air, a real change from the liberal platitudes spouted by

other programs that sound like nothing more than propaganda machines for the

progressive government.

If it is removed, we will be seeking a different place to go... perhaps even out of state to Wisc. or Idaho. This would be a shame.

The Berg family

Tucson, Ariz.

Wow, I know just how you feel!

If I go to some pristine lake on vacation, and after a day of fishing and bonding with the family in a tent, if I can't tune into my favorite show on my iPad, I would just pack the whole family up and go to a motel that has cable.

I mean, seriously, how can I enjoy the serenity of the north woods, with its melodic loons and the majestic eagles without my usual nightly progressive, propaganda hit at the end of day!

I don't blame you. You will love Idaho!

Don't forget to write!!

Let us know how that works out for you!! Don't forget to write!

Seriously, though, if you've lived in ultra-conservative Arizona the remainder of the year, you need the countervailing balance of a dose of MN. Crow Wing County might not provide that, but, if you make the effort, you'll find a variety of folks with whom you can discuss issues. It's kind of boring to live in an echo chamber, always hearing your own voice and opinions. Mix it up a bit, Berg family -- you might find that you learn something, and have fun doing so.

Have you thought about coming

Have you thought about coming to Minnecolda in the winter? I have -17 this morning.
We are looking forward to coming to your fine state next week.
I think we should have left yesterday.

Disgusting Program

Guy Green and The Speakeasy is a disgusting program and I hope his time on the air is coming to an end.

This man ran for the mayor and the citizens were wise enough to realize it would have been a total disaster if he ever got near any elected position.

I am sure you can find his brand of right wing extremism on the radio near your Arizona home. If not you can always tune to Mark Levin, someone in the same vein as our local blowhard.

Tucson

These people may not live in an echo chamber as Tucson, I think is in Pima county which voted for Obama.

It is possible that they are surrounded by liberals like my brother in Mpls .

Then we have to get personal and call the guy names on this Martin Luther Day.

These people who wrote this letter

sound as phony as a three dollar bill, as my dad used to say.
I wouldn't be surprised if it is GG himself.

Which is why I took the satirical response I did.

Perhaps it is just an attempt to get donors and sponsors. They sound pretty desperate lately.

Tonight they will read this letter on the show. And maybe these comments.

Oh, and I do listen occasionally, and their music is very dated which would indicate that they are resorting to playing their own old records: to save money or are they really that old?

They lash out at public officials and contributors to this paper as well as the staff themselves. And then they wonder why no one comes on their show.

But feel free to call them, as they would love to talk to a real live person.

Fresh Air?

This program is two hours of complaining and hate. I lean to the right but they they are WAY out there. They rarely have anything positive to say. Just awful people. Last week I tuned in and a priest was on the line. Guy said that more children have been damaged from their molesting teachers than have been from pedophile priests. Yeah, good comparison.

Southies three dollar bill

It seems that you think three dollar bills are phony now but when Little Johnnie Ward was running for re-election, it was okay for him to put these three dollar bills in the paper every day and they weren't phony. Ward had so many phony letters to the editor about all the nice things he did, that he now holds the record for phony three dollar bills. Of course that was okay with you because he was a filthy lib, one of your kind. Southie, how do you know the speakeasy program is so bad if you don't listen to it yourself. Now you're not only a lib but your'e a hippocrit also. What in the world is a top of the line liberal like you doing listening to bad radio shows anyway. Oh, I forgot, you're the head trouble creator for the DFL party here in CWC. Maybe you should call the Daily Kos about that bad radio show. I think your just jealous because no radio station will recruit you to do a show. Now, go ahead and take your shots back at me. I've got all day in the house to handle your kind on this website. Wanna go for it. I'm waiting. To the Berg family from Tuscon, please accept my apologies for these left wing (filtered words) here in Minnesota. Minnesota is a beautiful state if it wasn't for the left wing nuts. Second only to NY in left wing crazys.

FNB

You mean like last week when I gave you a thumbs up on two different articles and they both turned out as thumbs down. I called the cyber monkey and he claims it's automatic and he can't do anything about it. It happened to me again today. I don't think it's four lefters giving you 9 thumbs down. I think it's one liberal cyber monkey named Denny, playing games with the "Automatic System".

Hey Purposed

You mean like Earthy Lady aka Snowda aka Marsbar etc., etc., etc. If this cyber monkey at the BDD would get rid of the old id's when he issues new ones to people, like the rules state, we wouldn't have these problems. But when you are the rule-maker, I guess you can do whatever you want. Right, Denny.

It Just Happened again

Hey FNB, I just gave you a green thumbs up on your post above titled "it's a lot like his opposite" and a red thumb immediately came up at the same time to cancel my green one. And to think the BDD and Morris Communications is paying someone to do a job and this is what he is doing on company time.

Speakeasy is great

Hey G.G., keep up the good work. High powered shows like yours are just what this country needs more of. Let the Libs cry if they want. It just speaks that much more for your show. If these crybaby folks would stop crying, there would be no need for good shows like yours. Up front, truthful, honest, are just a few of the many positive adjectives that can be attributed to your show. I also have a radio show of a different nature on a station that is also owned by the same company as yours. This is a great company to work for. Again, keep up the good work.

I like the Speakeasy,

I also like Rush, O'Reilly and Hannity. I listen every day to Schultz, CNN and once and awhile to Maddow to see what the left is talking about. I understand why the left doesn't like the right wing talk shows, it's the same reason I get so upset with the left wing shows. If you don't like or believe in what the other side is saying, why would you enjoy it? Remember, tv's and radios have tuners that can go to what you like.

Who is confused?

Charlie: "Southie, how do you know the speakeasy program is so bad if you don't listen to it yourself. Now you're not only a lib but your'e a hippocrit also. What in the world is a top of the line liberal like you doing listening to bad radio shows anyway."

You sound confused. I said I listen occasionally, and yes, it is bad. I agree with you. (Spelling: hypocrite, Tucson, you're).

I even listened for a few minutes to your show.

For such a glorious speakeasy supporter as yourself, you have no clue when it's on? Who's the phony here? 6-8 pm.

Listen to it and decide for yourself.
But hurry because they sound like their days on the air are numbered. Better yet, send them some money if you enjoy the show.

FNB

Just gave you a greenie and got a big red one instead. No problem, I gave out a greenie about an hour ago and got three greenies instead. Must be that automatic system. Definitely not human error. Maybe intentional human manipulating.
