Encouraged by the likes of Cal Thomas, the fuel that has driven for decades the modern republican party is the rage drunk, unhinged conspiracy mongering of right wing talk radio and Fox news. Tune into any right-wing radio talk show of the last 25 years and you've heard an endless stream of vile, hate-filled, rage-drunk driven venom directed at the liberal boogeyman of the day. But it's not just callers "Bob" from Mobile or "Chuck" from Tallahassee; this vile, hate-filled, rage-drunk driven venom is coming directly from the leaders of the modern conservative movement: the Limbaughs, Hannitys, Becks, Hewitts, Coulters Medveds and Ingrahams.

But Thomas has false equivalency to push so he appoints Kathy Griffin and Saul Alinsky as the Left's equal to the frauds and liars of right wing talk radio. Cal could have done better by choosing people that the "Left" listens to or actually heard of ...but whatever.

Cal Thomas is what a stupid person thinks a smart person sounds like.
