Interesting Caller on KFI
I had to share this with you because it was so profound...at least to me it was.

The "right wing" talk show host was trashing Cindy right and left and taking calls. I couldn't help but laugh because he got three calls in a row that were very supportive of Cindy and her cause.

However, it was the third caller that really made some wonderful points...

After one of the most articulate rants I've ever heard, she (the caller) ended by asking in a loud voice..."Cindy is simply protesting the war...what is wrong with you people!?" (She was referring the the right wing talk show hosts).

The RW host asked her...
"Don't you think that what she is doing only encourages the enemy...the terrorists?" "Doesn't this just help them win the war?"

Her answer: "The terrorists will win this war the day that someone like Cindy can't stand up and express her disagreement with her government." "That's how the terrorists will win...Sir, you simply can't see the bigger picture...That is how the terrorists win!"

Wonderful come back.

6. KFI - In Los Angeles
Sorry....LA Radio Station...Probably the largest.

I might add that the talk show host could only say....Thanks for your call.

9. "Thanks for your call"
Radio-speak for his producer to get his resume in order if he ever lets a caller like that through again.

Host's lunch = eaten
