Talk radio idiocy

As I listen to talk radio I'm always amazed at some of the callers. Some callers are quick to quote the latest poll's from their favorite source.
Don't people realize that you can get a poll to come across with what ever results you're paying for. That most poll's are worthless as a source of good information and/or facts. Please don't ever quote a poll to me.
Another point that's always being brought up is that the talk show host is intolerant towards callers with a different opinion or from the opposite side of the isle. Well guess what, It's true, from both side of the political spectrum. If you don't believe me listen to programing that you normally would not listen too. You'd be surprised as to how short and snappy the hosts can be while brushing aside the discussion. Why? Do you suppose it's because the caller actually has a point that's worth discourse. Are people so ignorant as to believe there's only one answer, there's only one solution.
Something else that's really got me going is how similar both sides are in their attack of the other, yet how similar in content the ranting is.
Who's taking away who's freedoms, who's taking away our constitutional rights, who's the biggest spender? Jesus, look in the freakin' mirror.
The Government has us sufficiently divided amongst ourselves that they can do whatever it is they want with out a sufficient show of force to prevent their shenanigans
I've heard people say Revolution. Yeah, we can have a revolution but in this country it's been done by the ballot box rather then by armed blood shed. Take for example the revolution during the nineties when the Democrats were basically kicked to the back of the bus. That in my opinion was a revolution. How about now!!! Yeah, this current revolution, where the Republicans have been kicked down hard. And guess what? There'll be other's just like those.
I just wish my side would win once.
