David Frum points out that Fats Limbaugh isn't a good standard-bearer for the GOP, Mark Levin flips out (as usual) and then Frum calls in to talk with Foamer Levin. I guess Frum wasn't aware that wingnut radio is more or less full of angry clowns like Mark Levin:
As I hung up, I wondered what it would be like to be a new listener, a nonpolitical person, tuning in to Mark Levin’s show for the first time. The ferocious hatred and anger – the shouting at people not present to reply, the self-pitying complaints against a world that does not pay enough respect: it’s an ugly performance. Has Levin ever convinced any listener of anything that listener did not already believe? And of those who come to the show uncertain of what they believe - mustn't the vast majority come away from these rage-filled narcissistic tirades thinking, "If that's conservatism, I want no part of it"?
