Comments on: What Jay Severin thinks about the poor http://davidschrag.com/schrug/2008/02/25/what-jay-severin-thinks-about-the-poor/ David Schrag examines his navel and the world around it Wed, 09 Jul 2008 03:12:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: maxdp http://davidschrag.com/schrug/2008/02/25/what-jay-severin-thinks-about-the-poor/#comment-173 maxdp Wed, 07 May 2008 02:01:42 +0000 http://davidschrag.com/schrug/2008/02/25/what-jay-severin-thinks-about-the-poor/#comment-173 Great job keeping mr severino on task to your question. usually he seems to spiral into rage but you seemed to keep the dialogue pretty light even though you remained pointed. Funny he brought up SNL and Chris Rock, etc. I'd love to hear Chris Rock talk with Jay Severin. One of the ways JS thinks of himself as funny is his continual sexual references and such. That and his bumper music are supposed to make him hip and funny. Pretty disgusting, but not as disgusting as his politics. I also find it funny that he takes such libertarian positions but also admits to being clueless on economics. Extremely ugly -- can't wait for people to get tired of him.

Author, if you wanted Gay Severin not to cut you off, you should have mixed in a little ass-kissing with your criticism. But I suppose Jay always wins in the end. Michael Graham is a stupid idiot.

The Nazis-in-waiting of WKKK should be confronted on a daily basis. Next time you are at it - you might want to mention his history of lying - about winning the Pulitzer Prize - (he didn't) - about having a Masters Degree from BU (he doesn't) - seems like these are things that would be easy for him to get right if he were interested at all in the truth.

Is he the best the radio station can do? He brings any type of serious exchange of ideas to such a low level of discourse that I've never been able to listen for more than 10 minutes at a stretch. I'm not a conservative but I would relish a conservative commentator that would debate his point of view in an honest and open way; this would challenge me to look at my assumptions more critically. But this guy is about name-calling, spurious argumentation, and bigotry. I wonder if David Halberstam was aware and if so how he felt about Severin's copping of the phrase 'best and brightest'. I'm betting it was done without permission or acknowledgment. Anyone happen to know? Michael Graham is a simpleton. He's annoying, yes, but not as contemptuous as Jay Severin.
