If WLS drops Limbaugh, they'll find some other shit-spewer. That said, Limbaugh can't last forever and I'll be happy to see him go.

Actually you're wrong. They've already hired former screwball rock and roller Jonathon Brandmeier to take over mornings and talk is that another late morning hour will be added to his slot to cover the first hour of the shit-spewer's slot. Brandmeier still plays the local live music circuit with his band, Johnny and the Leisure Suits. He will be syndicated around the country on Westwood One, and will replace asswipe Dennis Miller (who thinks he's way funnier than he is) on all the major Westwood One outlets. Brandmeier's show will probably not be politically oriented, but personally he's generally a supporter of Democrat Party positions and liberal causes. And long time Chicago former shock jock Steve Dahl has been doing early afternoons for a couple of months now. The morning drive was a local right-wingjob political consultant idiot named Dan Proft and his sidekick right-wingjob funnyman sports guy Bruce Wolf, who also thinks he's funnier than he actually is. They're both gone in favor of a more moderately conservative country music jock and talk guy from over at WIND. So it appears that WLS has made a considerable move away from headcase conservative personalities and is going back to some long-time Chicago favorite super-jocks and more entertainment oriented programming. We're still stuck with Savage as Hannity's replacement in the evening, but there's change afoot at WLS...and a lot of it is for the better. What we don't need is for the right-wing bullshit talk nonsense to be replaced with a bunch of left-wing bullshit talk nonsense, which is really just the other side of the right-wingjob talk nonsense coin anyway.
