Clearly your definition of "hate speech" and "vitriol" is simply political commentary that you don't agree with, i.e. any that favors the Conservative viewpoint. Neil Boortz isn't hateful. You are. If I'm wrong then I'm sure you'll have no trouble naming some Conservative commentators who you respect - or at least don't consider to be "hateful" and "vitriolic" - even though you disagree with them.

That is your take on it, but it doesn't make it accurate. So, what do you think about Limbaugh?

Ha! Same thing he thinks of all Conservative commentators, or for that matter all Conservatives. Hateful and vitriolic!

Don't agree with much but they're reasonable:
Will
Frum
Brooks
Gerson
Parker
Noonan
Scarborough
Probably others whose names escape.

Not sure how conservative some of those names are- but if you find them reasonable then I highly doubt they are very right of center

Oh really? I'm the one spewing bluster, not the one who's calling a generous humanitarian like Neil Boortz a low-life and a hater? Then let's see how many comments, statements or opinions by Neil Boortz you guys can list that separate him from those other Conservative commentators who you supposedly find "reasonable." What has Boortz said that any of those reasonable people would disavow as hate speech? Why are they reasonable and he isn't? Because they don't have as large an audience for their hateful Conservative opinions?

You have a point in the vitriol row spews about others vitriol do more for humanitarian causes than most. So I guess when they give away all that money for cancer causes and the like, it's an effort to divide Americans.

Too much homework for the weekend dude - I answered your first question. Since you're obviously distraught I'll just leave you alone to mourn Neal's passing from the scene. Do you want the address of Lance Armstrong's charity?

Yes, and I alone poison the atmosphere for fair minded, non-partisan, and unemotional posters like you and masta. So sorry.

You're the one who brought up the vitriol argument which was quite ironic

OK. Why don't you find a post where I slammed almost 1/2 of the country for being no good subhumans or where I claimed that Republicans were the enemy of America intent on its destruction from within? That's the equivalency Neal set and it's a high bar of vitriol and a low bar for intelligence.

There is such a thing called context and I'm supposed to take your word in how he delivered it? If I was a betting man I would lay money down that says there is a disparity between what you claim and what he delivered in context.

Maybe you never listened to him. I did and heard this kind of tripe on numerous occasions.

This is a useless comment...
You don't really think that "liberal land" is filled with "haters" but conservatives are somehow different?
The level of hate displayed by conservatives towards this POTUS is unprecedented in modern times...maybe for any time in this country's history.
So if you're critical of the tenor of Maddow or Matthews' dialog...
What do you think of people like Gomert, Steve King (R-IA), Hannity, & Beck?
Are they haters also?

I was not a regular lister by any means but have heard him enough to know he is not what you claim. I would suspect you think the same about any radio talk show host. Certainly you're entitled to your opinions, but does not neccesarily make them accurate in reality.

No, I don't think all or maybe even half of the hate is from one side-my post was nothing more than a partisan rant, much like the ones you post.

I like Herman too, but he is not that good in real life either.
