Happy Friday everyone.
700 WLW midday radio host, Doc Thompson here for I’m With Stupid. And let me tell you, if it wasn’t for Matt-Man’s utter graciousness, I wouldn’t be here right now.
See..?
I replaced 700 WLW midday host Mike McConnell last year, and frankly, I have sucked.
Mike, while conservative like me politically, could talk in complete sentences and construct an argument which often led to good radio dialogue no matter one’s political and ideological bent.
I however, am the right wing version of Liberal putz, Alan Colmes.
I couldn’t win an argument with my kid, let alone, even in losing, make it interesting to the vast audience of WLW’s 50,000 watt universe. I hate to say it, but I am boring not only in Ohio, but the 38 other states we reach during the daytime as well.
When I talk to the every day folks, I am good, kinda sweet, and homespun even, but…When I talk to smarter people like Aaron Katersky from ABC News or the Obama book writer Jodi Kantor, I come off as sounding as stupid as I truly am.
Like earlier this week…
In all my Tea Bagger glory, I seriously mentioned to Aaron Katersky of ABC News, that if elected, perhaps Mitt Romney would put Ron Paul in as his Secretary of Treasury. Katersky said to me, “Are you serious, why would he do that?”
He didn’t need to be so rude. I just assumed, that well…all us Republicans at some level get along, so maybe he would give Ron Paul a job.
And hold on one second…I am NOT a Republican. I may be a talk show host with an agenda, but I am a straight shooter. The only side that I support in the wacky world of politics, is America’s side.
And if you want me to prove it, go to my Facebook Page, and you’ll see that I “Like” a varied and diverse group of people with a myriad of political ideologies…
From not only the Northern Kentucky Tea Party, but to the Cleveland Tea Party as well….to Glenn Beck…to ultra-conservative writer Jedediah Bila, to Virginia U.S. Senate Candidate and talker in tongues, Jamie Radtke, and of course…
Clear Channel and 700 WLW, without whose complete disregard for talent, I would be unemployed, and penniless. Socialism isn’t for me, but if it happens spontaneously within the airtight sound booths of the private media sector, and not within the loud and Stalinistic chambers of the U.S. Congress, I’m all for it.
Matt-Man and I have exchanged several e-mails over the last month. It all began when I was complaining on air about the Minimum Wage in Ohio going from $7.40/hr. to $7.70/hr. He said that he didn’t think that an additional $2.40 a day per employee was too much to ask from the barely getting by, job creators.
I said…Wait a minute…that’s like $600.00/yr. You and I will pay for that, and so will the folks who just got a raise. And he’s like, giving me the business, calling me an asshole and the like. And I said…
“Why not make it $50.00/hr?” He told me that that was a hyperbolic argument, to which I said to him, “Yeah, so?” He had no answer to that other than to say to me like Aaron Katersky from ABC News did, “Are you serious?”
As I always say, “When in doubt, go hyperbolic on a person.” And as soon as I look that word up, I’ll find out if I did or not.
Matt-Man eventually got me to admit that I, in no way, think there that should be a Federal Minimum wage, and I told him that Michelle Obama shouldn’t be setting policy because we didn’t elect her.
He more or less called me a crazy man. Well Mr. Funny Man…
When you folks are working for $2.58 an hour and Michelle Obama is back living in the Chi-Town projects with her one term husband, we’ll see who the hyperbolic one is.
This is Doc Thompson saying…
I love America. I love the Constitution, and…
I love my fiancée’ of Korean descent, because seriously…If her family could understand what I was saying, they’d never let her marry me.
Ahnyoung, now go home…
