Not to knock you Muad, but I'm assuming your position on O' Reilly has something to do with him being "conservative". However he is no where near as radical as either Kucinich of Wellstone.

It has less to do with his conservativism than to do with his the lack of intellect I have seen from his show and his books. I can respect a good conservative as much as I can respect a good liberal (McCain and Hagel to name two). My cheif problem with O'Reilly is that he is nothing but an instigator who complains and provides sound byte answers to problems that he knows are beyond the scope of his "common man" solutions.
Also lets be sure to not confuse "radical" with "liberal". I know that both are dirty words in America today but there is a difference. Most importantly that a radical idea is something that is a departure from the status quo, like Universal Healthcare or Preemptive Warfare, however liberal is something more along the lines of progressive, like Universal Healthcare or a withdrawl from NAFTA.
