Ah, America.

Good that the functionally mentally retarded can vote.

BTW, that's Stern's audience they're making fun of.

Yeah, I thought about that too. Stern is pretty far left but maybe he needs ratings?

Bzzzt. wrong. He's not a liberal. I've been a fan of his show for over 20 years. I'm probably closer to his audience demographic than those Harlem folks Sal the stockbroker interviewd. A lot of misperceptions out there about Stern.

Well, it depends on your interpretation and which of his "personalities" he decides to employ, but you're right - He's certainly not in the Obama-ish sense of the word.

He's been supportive of the Republican Party at times. His love of the free market, smaller government, less taxation, the death penalty and increased self-reliance are very conservative (as could be his "racist" and occasionally demeaning remarks towards "protected-classes").

He has also been critical of the Right, most notably with his "jihad on Bush".

He claims Libertarianism, but when you're a professional blabbermouth, that means nothing. He's also claimed to be an Independent, and supported candidates from both parties.

Correct . He ran for NY Governor several years ago as a Libertarian but dropped out when he couldn;t skirt the financial disclosure rules. After he dropped out , he ended up supporting the Republican nominee.

Not exactly far left.
