Posted By: JimCrandellWow--listening to Jeff right now.He is extremely articulate and is making the anti-Obama case more effectively than I have heard anyone make it. Go Jeff go.

Posted By: Dan BrettaWell I hope the calls get more intelligent than that first one. "I've heard Obama wasn't born in America"....Duh...

10-16-2008, 06:21 PM

Posted By: Al C.risafulliI heard that first call and I threw up a little bit in my mouth. He came out of the spot with the Clash, so I give him a mulligan on the next half-hour of Obama bashing. -Al

Posted By: TimI'm waiting to hear him talk about Obama, so far he's just railing against some guy named Barry.

Posted By: JimCrandellTrying to call in and willing to talk politics or baseball cards but keep getting busy signal. Before this I never considered Jeff a conservative as I have debated the gay marraige and abortion issues with him on this board. However he is very effectice communicating on how far left and how morally bankrupt the current Democratic party has become....and make no mistake how he feels about Obama--an ultra-left fraud.

10-16-2008, 06:37 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaWell, he was correct when he said he wasn't going to be fair and balanced.

Posted By: JimCrandellJeff-want to talk cards or politics-I will call and raise on Obama or talk sportscards or Net 54?

10-16-2008, 06:44 PM

Posted By: barrysloateJeff- I gave you the courtesy of 15 minutes of my time...and that was as much as I could listen to. But you speak with a lot of confidence, and are well prepared, so I'll toss you a bone on that one.

Posted By: JoannGood show. No heart attack here. Do you pick the music, or do the producers? And I agree - very articulate. And measured tone as well. Nice job Jeff. Don't agree with everything you say, but it's nice to hear it without the shrill hysteria that marks both sides lately. J

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:01 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaI don't know...that last bit seemed a bit hysterical to me.

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:02 PM

Posted By: Anthony S.Dan, he did say "Dude, are you freakin' kidding me" in measured tones.

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:03 PM

Posted By: Jeff LichtmanIf I see "David from (quasi) Ivory Tower" on the call board I'm taking it. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> And PS: of course I pick the music.

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:05 PM

Posted By: JoannYeah Dan - I guess I must be getting numb to it. There is so much actual yelling going on (either that or sarcastic dismissiveness) these days from both sides that anything that is in normal tone does not sound hysterical to me. J

10-16-2008, 07:05 PM

Posted By: Jim VBJoann, <<Don't agree with everything you say...>> Hell, I don't think I've agreed with anything he's said yet, but I agree that I like the way he says it.

10-16-2008, 07:10 PM

Posted By: Al C.risafulliJoe the Plumber would probably be a better VP. -Al

10-16-2008, 07:11 PM

10-16-2008, 07:19 PM

Posted By: JoannOK. Maybe just a little hysterical. Yikes. I just about have to cut my fingers off here to keep from typing a rush about the actual political topics, and let this thread stay on track about Jeff and his show. Unless we want a 400-post thread about the show? lol J

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:24 PM

Posted By: john/z28jdI'm listening to the show and I havent heard him mention one thing about vintage cards? Jeff could you say something like " Obama's stance on this issue is as fake as a united cigars underprint!" ....then I will keep listening after the next commercial break. PS do you ever call Bob Grant, Mudcat? also is he related to Ulysses S Grant? or Government Grant,whoever that is?

Archive

10-16-2008, 07:36 PM

Posted By: Anthony S.Yeah, that would work. "Career Opportunities" might fit in with the stimulus package.

Posted By: David McDonaldYo, Jeff: Just to let you know that your audience reaches as least as far as Hawaii. Got the Rays-Red Sox on the tube, Lichtman on the internet radio. Amazing small world we live in.

10-16-2008, 07:39 PM

Posted By: Dan BrettaSame here...not the Hawaii part, but watching Rays v Sox and it ain't pretty...looks like my Red Sox are going to get embarrassed again.

Posted By: john/z28jd Jeff,please don't skirt the real issues,answer my questions above. I deserve it,I'm still here listening to your show even though I haven't heard a keyword that makes me pay attention yet....yes I only pay attention when I hear keywords but I pretend to listen all the time...like just now,I heard Clark,NJ...I have an aunt I dont talk to who lives in Clark,tell her I said hi

10-16-2008, 08:04 PM

Posted By: JimCrandellWell I was on hold from 9 to 10pm--had a number of questions prepared on the state of the hobby including a couple about the goings on on Net 54--but Jeff kept me on hold the whole time????

Posted By: Jeff LichtmanThanks everyone for listening; it was funny to have the board up during my rants. Clearly you see I am capable of multi-tasking. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> Jim, I wanted you on and saw you on the board but I don't get full say over which calls get taken as there is a producer. I wanted you on but the board identified your call as one related to baseball cards and they didn't see a good segue to get into it. Anyway, I was happy to mention our group and happy some of you listened. And Barry, those 15 minutes were just precious to me. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: davidcyclebackIt's interesting to note that George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, John Hancock et al were all British citizens, and Washington was a Brigadier General in the British Army. There were some citizen questions about George Romney (Mitt's dad and former Governor of Michigan) when he ran for President, as he was born in Mexico. The citizenship law is quite clear. To paraphrase, it says if you were born a US Citizen, you are eligible to run for US President. It doesn't say you have to be born in the US, and, in fact, Romney legally ran for President.

Posted By: JimCrandellJeff, I told the person who picked up the phone I would talk about anything--that I would talk about Obama and McCain--or I could talk about baseball cards and Net 54. He asked what do you really "want" to talk about and I responded the latter. Oh well--maybe next time. You are incredibly articulate Jeff--much more so than many of those who do this for a living. You are also very good in engaging and drawing out the caller. Good stuff. Watch the tracking polls today--hoping fot a tightening. Jim

Posted By: Pennsylvania TedJEFF We were driving back from the Jersey shore last night and tuned in to your show. My wife, who usually doesn't listen to Talk radio (although, she does enjoy Mark Levin who preceded you), found your show very interesting. You had several very good woman callers towards the end. You are the "new kid on the block" on that 50KW AM station....but, so was Bob Grant 50+ years ago. Hope to hear more from you in the future. As winter approaches 770 AM does not always come in clear in this part of Pennsy; and, when it fades I can switch to listening on the computer. Regards....fellow Hal Chase collector. TED Z

Posted By: James FeaginI do not agree with Jeff on a variety of topics in both the hobby, and in the world of politics. However, it is a rare gift to be able to express yourself articulately, and to be able to "think on your feet" in a public setting. That is a blessing I'm sure you're grateful for. James
