re: #5 samuraishake

I, likewise, was a Prager listener during the Bush years, until certain events in my own life (watching conservative colleagues and friends turn into foaming-at-the-mouth racists before my eyes, for example) and the craziness that followed Obama’s election led me to choose between altering my principles or detaching myself from what was proving to be a horseshit ideology. It’s regrettable that Prager is so wedded to his own ideological views.

re: #2 OrionXP

The more I think about his shows during the Bush years, the more I can recall some truly repugnant arguments cloaked in faux humanism - his anti-gay marriage stance, in particular. His non-reaction to you leads me to further reconsider my earlier view of Prager as the gregarious and good-natured exception to the more hysterical voices of the Right. I think a lot of people had him pegged incorrectly as such.
