five words:
"Very disappointing!" and "Committing radio suicide!"
He must know that he cannot let the two worlds of his show and talk radio mix.
If he starts doing this, his chances for his show will flame out. I won't tolerate this content in his political talk radio show. I wouldn't care if it was his tv show..i could just log it as his tv show's SOP...but not his radio show.
I hope this will be the last time this happens.....

Wouldn't surprise me. There's been a trend in the last few months away from him spouting political opinions and instead going into lurid sexual topics. While it may be argued that lurid sexuality (or at least gender variations) are political topics, his style is overt and sensationalist. I didn't hear the show, but I'd expect him to stick to familiar territory.
I hear plenty of rightwing talkers associating freaky sex to liberals, it seems he is out to prove their point for them.
Genuine transsexuals should be concerned that he is giving tham a bad reputation.<P ID="signature">______________

Only Shows Political Talk is Dead
And Jerry is going to what he knows works for him.
Glenn Beck (in the same time slot) is getting less political all the time.

I've known a few trannies in my day and believe me, they are concerned, but TV rarely gives them anything but a bad rep, though it is slowly changing.

How was it covered, though? The topic of transsexualism and transgender issues isn't inherently wrong for his radio show. Transsexuals are the most likely of any minority to be killed in a hate crime; "gender identity" often is not included in bills ensuring equitable treatment of minorities based on race, sex, creed, disability, etc.; more powerful gay rights groups are often poor advocates for transgender issues, while the transgender community is often too small in and of itself to be able to effect political change; trans people are among the last remaining minorities you can openly insult on network television; all these are perfectly legitimate issues. Was it these sorts of things, or the stupid "transexual strippers surprise their cheating husbands!" crap? Most transsexuals are not flamboyant, most are not in the sex trade, most are not anything like what you see on Springer, but that's the image everyone has of them because that's the only image they ever see. Maybe Springer should use his radio show to apologize for that.

Oooooooooooooh, sounds like you're an open minded liberal.. Answer this for me: Is it transexuals or transgenders that are the ones who's aim in life is just to be permitted to go in the womens bathroom to watch little girls go pee pee?

It was handled very respectfully. I wasn't criticizing the decision of Springer's topic. I was noting however that this seems to be the first AAR show I've heard that has gone this far away from politics and into social issues. It almost reminded me of the talk radio we heard during the 1980s where social topics were quite commonly discussed more than political bombthrowing.

To equate a transgendered person with child molestation and peeping really makes me wonder what else you are so shockingly ignorant about. These kinds of comments are way beneath you.
> Liberal icon and Air America fave arrested for child

Actually after reading the article and checking the date, this looks like a classic Karl Rove-style operation. Scott Ritter criticizes the administration over WMD, anonymous source comes forward to dirty-up Ritter. Ultimately the criminal case was dismissed. But Ritter's arguments about the war situation have not been, despite the attempt to change the story from WMD to Ritter's personal life.
Why you brought up a story more than two years old about a guy who isn't a transsexual anyway and put it in this thread will be a mystery sociologists will spend seconds, if not minutes debating.

How long have you had this fetish with little girls? Sounds like you could use some serious help pal, before you act on your fantasies and screw up you life and that of some little girl(s). The fact that your mind is capable of coming up with this crap says thousands of words about who you are, you freak.
Get yourself fixed really soon, then maybe you'll be able to deal with transsexuals or transgenderists without the thought of their existence making you go more nuts that you apparently already have gone.
