In a genuinely competetive free market situation, this new liberal
network wouldn't last more than a few weeks. However, I suspect that
it is being backed financially by some deep pocketed extremists who
have a socialist agenda that is more important to them than financial
profits.


Is anyone else laughing as hard as I am over this nonsense. Rich socialists
throwing away their money??


Rich socialists have been throwing away their money for years. Ever
heard of the Rockefeller Foundation?

Maybe it is possible that wealthy capitlaists and Americans are tired of the
hate being spread daily on the AM frequencies by the right. I'll try to keep
from labeling them as Nazis, but that makes as much sense as calling Democrats
socialists.


It makes perfect sense to call Democrats socialists.There is a group
in the US Congress called the Progressive Caucus.Here is a list of
their 54 members, overwhelmingly if not entirely comprised of
Democrats:
http://bernie.house.gov/pc/members.asp .
Presidential candidate and Progressive Caucus Co-Chair Dennis Kucinich
is at the top of the list.
So what, you ask? Well, the Progressive Caucus has close ties to the
Democratic Socialists Of America http://www.dsausa.org/dsa.html .
As far as I know, there is no organization called the Republican Nazis
Of America, so your Democrat/Socialist = Republican/Nazi comparison is
way off target.


Most of his crap IS off target!

Wow. The Rockefeller's are socialists? Boggling! Call the newspapers.

So, because a small number of Democrats belong to the Democratic Socialists,
all Dems are socialist? Gee, that reasoning seems suspect. And when I check
your dsasa.org site I don't see anyplace where it says that everyone in the
Progressive caucus is under their wing.

I don't mean to be insulting, but you're going to need better evidence than
this specious connection to prove that all Dems should automatically be labeled
socialists.

That rhetoric is ridiculous.

The taxation structure is set up in such a way that they aren't
'throwing' anything away. This foundation may well be a very lucrative
write off for another branch of the family's business.

They lose nothing with this 'generosity'.
