		<description>I&#039;ve never undestood MSNBC&#039;s stand on the issues...nor Bill Gates, and his buddies...rich liberals all...i want a divorce from the liberals...

DIVORCE AGREEMENT

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLY WELL PUT AND I CAN HARDLY BELIEVE IT&#039;S BY A YOUNG PERSON, A STUDENT!!!  I hope he got an &quot;A,&quot; and extra credit in Political Science!

 Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

 We have stuck together since the late 1950&#039;s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce.

 I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let&#039;s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

 Here is a model 20 separation agreement:

 Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After
 that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.
 We don&#039;t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them.

 You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.

 Since you hate guns and war, we&#039;ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.

You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O&#039;Donnell (You are; however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We&#039;ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street.

You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens.

We&#039;ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO&#039;s and rednecks. We&#039;ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and  Hollywood.

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we&#039;ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.  
 You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our Allies or our way of life are under assault, we&#039;ll help provide them security.

We&#039;ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain.  
You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We&#039;ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We&#039;ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right.

 We&#039;ll keep The  Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem.  I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I&#039;d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

 We&#039;ll practice trickledown economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot.

 Since it often so offends you, we&#039;ll keep our history, our name and our flag.

 Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other likeminded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting,
 I&#039;ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15  years.


 Sincerely,

		<description>Max -- certainly what you talk about is in effect, to some extent, on Fox.  Part of why I like watching Morning Joe is that they have people on there, that while I certainly don&#039;t agree with them, I&#039;d like to hear what they think.  Now, that doesn&#039;t go as far as watching MSNBC after 6...  But there are people on the left, national figures, that have obviously made a decision that they won&#039;t go on Fox, and especially on O&#039;Reilly&#039;s show.

Obviously, MSNBC has made a business decision to stake out the territory to the left of Fox.  I don&#039;t think they, or the audience they attract, cares if conservatives show up.  In fact, I bet they are entertained by their hosts savaging conservatives.  I don&#039;t see a financial downside for them to berating folks their audience dislikes.</description>

		<description>Just thinking out loud, if guests are treated this way and refuse to show up during the next election cycle, isn&#039;t that going to drop the ratings of MSNBC even more?

To get your message out wouldn&#039;t it be more cost-effective (in a local or state election) to interview in local radio and TV markets and just leave the national media out?

So why put up with this?
