The Top Ten Conservative Idiots (No. 121) #9 Pat Snyder

[goddess40]

the headline in the Wausau Daily Hearld reads "Radio host returns to the air".

Snyder, 46, of Schofield is known for his conservative political views. He promised listeners he was going to quit binge drinking and would be "a little more humble."

Fat chance of that happening. This guy is nasty to the core and I don't see him changing. This is the same guy that let people threaten to shoot one of my fellow war protester and only laughed and basically incourage the nut.

Only one caller, Dave of Wausau, who didn't give his last name as is customary on radio call-in shows, questioned Snyder's will to quit binge drinking. Dave said he was alarmed that by his reckoning, Snyder would still have been under the influence of alcohol when he arrived at work had he not been in the crash. Snyder responded only by saying "it will never happen again."

The last word there explains a lot. Maybe it was his being drunk on air that made him be so nasty - I seriously doubt it, maybe it was the killer hang overs.


edit - this is what I posted on the papers forum
“More than 30 well-wishers called during the 11Ú2-hour program, which Snyder co-hosts with Tom King weekday mornings, including such local notables as Wausau Mayor Linda Lawrence and Marathon County antiporn crusader Dom Gordon.”

Are these people joking? Why would they be welcoming this loser back to the air waves. Are they promoting this type of behavior or are they willing to look the other way when a fellow ‘conservative’s’ anti-social behavior surfaces?
Especially Dom Gordon, does she not get that this guy was drinking at a STRIP JOINT before his crash. Does she really believe Snyder couldn’t find somewhere else to get blasted before getting on his motorcycle? How about that lie about Snyder not frequenting this establishment on a regular basis, if she buys that one I have some ocean front property here in Wausau to sell her.

1. What frequency?

What radio station is this nut on? I should be able to get it in Marshfield (actually known as the bogs)

2. 550 AM

The station manager just resigned but I think it was for a new higher paying job.

3. Are they a Clear Channel station?

That would explain a lot...
