Red Eye Radio's Constant Theme, Gene

To: Gene630@wpro.com

I know you have nothing to do with this , Gene. But if listeners of your radio station think John DePetro is too conservative ( and liberal Democrats are wrong to boycott the station ) - I wonder what they would think if they could hear Red Eye rants during the day. I am up early really just to catch Frank Coletta do the 4:30 Good Morning News. Both you and Frank are "congenial mainstream".

Their constant theme is that environmentalism has only one real motivation: punishing capitalism. For these guys PUNISHING CAPITALISM is a greater evil than destroying planet Earth.

Clearly CAPITALISM is nothing less than a fanatical religion with these people. I suspect most of them are no more religious than the late Isaac Asimov, the famous HUMANIST science writer convinced that global warming was THE STORY OF THE YEAR way back in the early 1980s.

Their early morning Red Eye rants  remind me of vicious, lying 1950s McCarthyism. They see socialists and communists everywhere. Their beloved CAPITALISM is being threatened by their LIBERAL pimps in high office.

Their hysterical anti-environmentalist rants reek of atheistic Ayn Rand-ism. That crackpot was notorious for her "Virtue of Selfishness" social philosophy. Even the late conservative Catholic, William F. Buckley, could not stand her.

Perhaps WPRO radio should consider a counter-voice to the brainless right wing propaganda of Red Eye Radio. Most scientists just believe in the scientific method- not the political program of the Fourth International.

Does WPRO radio - and more and more Ed Achorn, The Providence Journal's editorial page editor- think intelligent, literate citizens can ever be won over to this reactionary cynicism about  SAVING THE GOOD EARTH? God of the divine stock-market ?
