Has anyone ever heard of Pat Grey?

[TheFarseer]

He's a local radio guy here in Houston. He's worse than Rush, Hanitty or whoever you got and I've just got to vent a little. Some of the wacky shit he's said lately includes(and this is paraphrasing but close to what he said):

"John Kerry didn't deserve his first Purple Heart. If we in talk radio don't talk about this no one will. We're the only ones talking about the issues" Now first of all, I'm sure he was there and can lay it out for us why he didn't deserve the PH, but what really struck me was calling this asinine controversy "the issues" The issues are the war in Iraq, trade and taxes, health care, the deficit, stuff like that. NOT stupid bullshit that happened 35 years ago!!!!!!

Then a caller calls in and says, "First of all I'll be right up front and say I'm a card carrying liberal." Pat cuts in and asks, "What kind of card is that, is it a communist party card?" Caller says, "No Pat, what I wanted to say is I love this country but I was against the war from the beginning, and I oppose alot of the things this president does, and I'm getting really tired of being called a bad American because I disagree with the policies of this president. Were Russians who didn't agree with Stalin bad Russians?" Pat says,"Oh, are you comparing George W Bush to Stalin?(who just called who a communist, asshole)" Caller, "Well, OK what about British people who opposed Neville Chamberlain, were they bad Britons?" Pat says, "Well, no, they were right to oppose appeasement, I wouldn't call them bad Britons(Uh Oh, Pat's in trouble)" Caller says, "Pat, it's the exact same thing here, why are you calling us bad Americans just because we disagree with the president?!" Pat says, "I've never called anyone a bad American(not true) don't put words into my mouth to prove your point. I've never questioned anyone's patriotism."(not fucking true, LIAR) At this point the caller is screwed and says goodbye, cause you can't fight that unless you have the audio tape or something, but OMG he might as well have denied the holocaust as to deny that. What a sad sack of shit this man is. If you've made it this far, thanks for indulging me.

4. I live in Austin, I never heard about him either.

But i liked the points made by the caller. you have to admire being able to make a well reasoned response to this broadcaster. All this guy can do if offer ad hominum attacks and deny it.

He is not going do debate fairly. You can't expect much in an arena like that.
