my exact story bobnick - all that you said. I drove a breadtruck for 3 years after college and got so sick of FM, decided to listen to the AM people that I'd been taught to hate. As you said, purely for entertainment. Rush Limbaugh one way going up, and one the way back (i forget her name) one of those once popular on-air psychologists that liberals successfully shut-up by finding nude pictures of her and convincing people she was out to get gay people or black people, or someone...who knows. She's gone now.
I think more than realizing I was philosophically conservative, I resented liberals. And still do. Not that I'm hung up on my 4 years of college 15 years ago or so, that I still hear the democrat president complaining about Fox news, blaming the previous administration, playing the same record that was spun for me in my "higher education" years. The last 8 years solidified all of it for me. I honestly feel sorry for those that swallow their shit, and despise those that spout it.
