So who's the liar now?

Sept 14th, 2006

Quote:

But a spokeswoman for Air America said: "No decision has been taken to make any filing of any kind.
"If Air America had filed for bankruptcy every time someone rumoured it to be doing so, we would have ceased to exist long ago. It may be frustrating to some that this hasn't happened."

Nothing to discuss in yor comment NEM, just another liberial trying to help his friends avoid taking responsibility for their failure by blaming others.

But if you insist, your response is really pathetic.

Am I the only one that enjoy the irony of Nem doing exactly what he accuses others of doing in the very same post..? This post is hilarious..!!

Nothing like a little Chapter 11 bankrupcy to show how great things are at Air America, huh...?

It just goes to prove that liberalism works best on bumper stickers. If you, God forbid, actually have to discuss liberalism at length, the vast majority of people quickly realize how much a load of bullcrap it is.

Hey, they're only like $15 million in the hole. Maybe they should move to a liberal mark....oh, that's right, they were in NYC. doh!


Liberal radio doesn't sell cuz it's senseless banter.

Host: "Let's go to Hugh Jass from Uranus..."

Caller: "Bush sucks, Save the children!"

Host: "excellent point"

heh nice spin NEM, its still bankruptcy regardless of how you spin it. Means in simple terms their liabibilties exceed their assets........and they can't pay their bills. Unlike the dems and recently the Repubs in congrees they can't just borrow their way out of trouble.

No message = no audience = no ratings = no revenue = Air America.

Actually, I've read that most liberals listen to NPR. How could Air America possibly compete with that goverment funded juggernaut? The reason conservative radio is successful is because it filled a void that wasn't there before. Air America was just trying to compete in an already saturated marketplace for their perspective.

I bet Rush Limbaugh would have let Franken & Jeanne Garafool borrow a few bucks if they had asked him
