DO these right-wing screeds practice what they preach?
Seriously!

From what little I've listen and read about these idiots like Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, etc - do they really practice what they preach?

I mean, it's so easy to spew about how evil us progressive thinkers are but let's face it, do they actually practice abstinience (for those who are single like Limbaugh & Coulter) or abstain from the evils like smoking & drinking and listening to the Devil's music. I mean, it's now a known fact that form neo-con darling David Brock (now of the progressive website Media Matters) is gay, you know he had to keep that one pretty quiet outside his the neo-con world while he wrote such screeds as "The Real Anita Hill" (a little bit slutty, a little bit nutty was coined by Brock. But he's redeemed himself with "Blinded by the Right" and his fabulous website Media Matters)

There's excellent money to be made being a right-wing screed being that the likes of Scaife & his ilk will bulk purchase your books just to help your sales or even pay you a generous salary just to be a mouthpiece on Fox, CNN or MSNBC.

So seriously, how much of what these screeds scream about do they really practice everyday. Or is the world their oyster, financed by the the neo-con money men provided that they keep their nasty little secrets within their own family.

Discuss!

1. I don't listen to them
It's all bullshit and I don't care about what they have to say about anything.

2. you're so silly, Lynne.
You know that is against the oath they took when they became shills.
It's in the by-laws.
