Get ready for "Real" Liberal Radio---The Guy James Show tonight 7pm est
Does it ever end? The Amnesty International flap (guess whose side I'm on?) the new revelations that the Quran mess really DID happen, the Watergate mess, just too much to mention here.

Call the show toll-free at 1-888-602-7500, 7501, 7502, 7503, 7504 or tune in at 1240WINK in Ft. Myers, Florida or WNOG1270AM in Naples, Florida. 7 to 10pm eastern time.

We got some "Republican Love" tonight and, hopefully, some crazy Right-wing callers to entertain us.

Call in, participate, and make this another good "REAL" Liberal radio show.

3. Recommended for greatest
Should the minimum perhaps be a $2 donation? Is there not a handling fee involved in each transaction?

Just wondering

7. Several months ago I went "Bronze"
and don't miss the $10 bucks per month at all! If 400 posters donated that much per month, Guy would have the $4000 he needs.

We're losing our country here folks, and we need Guy and many more like him!

13. I too Am A Bronze Member
I am a Certified Nurses Aide, and make about 11 dollars an hour. Sometimes the paypal comes at a bad time for me. BUT all in all I am PROUD to donate to The Guy James Show because a donation to his show is a donation to continue our freedom of speech and our rights. That's the way I feel about it.This is one of the few ways I can express myself about my beliefs. Because Guy's take on things are pretty darned close to mine.

Donate if you can please. You won't be sorry.

15. What a Co-inky-dink!
When I retired, I went to school to be a CNA so I can work a few more years in home health care.

Guess GREAT minds think alike! :-)

10. Many of those in Gitmo were sold by the warlords.
Ir has been reported that a number of the detainees have been sold by the war lords, claiming they were terrorists and they were nothing but farmers, etc.

11. I'm not allowed to tell you that Guy James needs money, sadly...
So, ignore my request that you go to Guy's homepage and donate.

Don't do it.

I'm counting on you not to help Guy raise the money he needs to stay on the air, because that might actually further the Democratic Cause, and we cannot have THAT, can we?

For NOT donating anything like a Silver support level donation.

And I WON'T match ten percent of that donation, either!

19. paypal is not working for me right now;
I just moved to another state, and paypal seemed to be concerned about me logging in from a different place; they suspended my account until I send in a confirmation by mail. Of course, they sent it to the old address, so I'll have to wait for it to be forwarded here. I'll pick up my regular subscription, plus a little extra for missed time, once my new bank account, address, etc. is all settled.

This is the first chance I've had to sit at my own computer in about 6 weeks; I've got a lot of catching up to do.

20. I sent my donation to Guy last week.
It is important, people, to help those who help us. Guy James is one of our patriotic heroes who is doing more than his part to help our America.

Ben, you are next on my list for donations.

And thanks to Bush eats beef for his call in to urge people to help Guy and our democracy.

22. I won't be telling anyone...
that they should donate to keep Guy on the air. I'll just say that it feels really good to donate at the silver level every month via PayPal. And that having it go from my bank account feels even better because then there don't seem to be any fees.

Makes my shoulders feel lighter knowing that the voice of democracy goes out over the Florida airwaves each and every week.

35. It shocks me when they say things like
~But we didn't sell Saddham weapons after he invaded Kuwait~

What the hell?! Like it was okay to sell them before? And anything that's too painful to believe, they dismiss.

34. You're so Right About the Borders
Dems have a HUGE opportunity to put B* in a corner and get major support for Dems party at the same time, but we're doing NADA!!!!

We could probably get a lot of Repukes to our side on just that one issue!!

36. why does Guy always wimpout?
noooo more, I cut him off last week for the same reason...whenever some neocon calls in..Guy always backs down!!

election results from 2004 http://www.uselectionatlas.org/

Bush didn't win by five points, hell..he didn't even win by three points. If Kerry had won in another state this adminstration would be history.

37. Why not send him a note with your points?
I think he would be greatful for any facts you can provide.

He dealt some red ass out to a conservative who called in earlier. Maybe you didn't hear it. I didn't hear him "wimp out". I think he just didn't have the facts at hand and sure could have used your help.

40. the same thing happened last week..
I generally enjoy Guy James, then some neocon calls his show and instead of destroying a lame argument, Guy would stutter and stammer..then starts saying things the caller actually liked. :grr:

Usually I only get ticked when I hear someone like Rush, but no calls being taken to challenge him. Now I get ticked when a neocon calls the Guy James show, makes a bunch of weak points, and then we hear Guy kissing his ass!

42. Guy is not Mike Malloy, which is what you want.
I actually like both Guy and Mike, but they are very different people. I think Guy is trying to convert some of these idiots, not piss them off and make them stop listening alltogether.

I don't know if that tactic works or not, but I think it's worth a try.

Listen to Randi and Mike during the week to get your fix of hosts slamming the GOP callers on their face, and let Guy be himself.

46. IMO just taking neocon calls is being diplomatic..
I believe that using a solid argument to humiliate a fanatical loudmouth will convert far more Republican listeners than allowing a baseless argument to stand. If more Republicans knew Bush's taxcuts only mean higher taxes for trillions in interest on the national debt, I doubt they would see Bush as the key to solvency or less government waste. When a caller asks Guy to name one good thing Bush has done...Guy should only demand logical answer from the caller! When the caller demands that Guy provides evidence, why doesn't the caller first provide evidence for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

neocons never trusted Clinton, they never gave evidence he was guilty of perjury, and they never demanded a logical argument to justify the war in Iraq! But they insisted that troops should not go to Bosnia unless it serves our national interest! How does this war in Iraq serve our national interest, why should overthrow Saddam Husein in the name of democracy..while embracing the Saudi royal family?

the best way to win any argument is listening to the other side and challenging those weak points.

43. He never kissed a neocons ass
Come on, now. You're going way over the top with that assertion. Like I suggested earlier, why not help him out. Tell him what you want and help him with some facts. You can pitch a bitch or you can pitch in. After all, we're all in this together.

Guy was on the air at his own expense a year before Air America Radio. He's been fighting the good fight with all he's got bringing the Dem point of view to Florida. If you aren't interested in being a part of the solution - you know how the rest of it goes. Now get busy and create a cheat sheet for him and email it to him.

45. thanks
I got a call in - as I commuted. Oddly enough this is one time I would have liked to have been on hold longer before getting to talk - as it would have given me more time to listen (ala the cell phone). Guess I will have to catch it on your website. Thanks for giving me, and many others, that opportunity!
