G. Gordon Liddy's Radio Show, 20

[A Friend]

Liddy To End Radio Show

DC-based radio talk personality G. Gordon Liddy, 82, will end his
syndicated daily radio show. Investment advisor and author Peter Schiff
takes over Liddy's 10 AM to noon slot at Radio America. Liddy's final
show will be July 27 and he will continue to do commentary and special
projects for Radio America. The former Watergate co-conspirator started
his radio career in 1992, doing middays on then "guy talk" WJFK, 106.7
FM, back when the station featured its "superstation" line-up of Howard
Stern in mornings and "Don And Mike" in afternoons. Syndicator Westwood
One picked up his show in 1993. After getting bounced from WJFK, Liddy
joined Radio America in 2003.....

He was also a frequent guest of Al Franken back when the
latter was the, umm, flagship program on Air America.

The two of them, despite their very different political
beliefs, are pretty good friends.

Liddy's autobiography, Will, is an outstanding read. It's my favorite
Watergate book and one of my favorite political books of any sort.

As an unashamed Obama supporting liberal, this saddens me. While I
never embraced anything about Liddy's politics, I admired him as a man
and consider myself a fan. I loved "Will" and when his show was
syndicated here in Sacramento, I never missed it.

He is a person I would like to know. I know I would like him.

I thought Will was maybe the best autobiography I have ever read.
From working in J. Edgar Hoover's office to prosecuting Timothy Leary
to running for Congress to working for the Nixon White House and
masterminding the Watergate break in and then his escapades in prison,
it was a great read. And it wasn't just the big events in Liddy's
life, it was the little things like breaking into the offices of the
prisons he was incarcerated in and reading the personnel files of the
guards in order to learn things he could use against them to tapping
the phone of a Warden (while he was a prisoner!) to overcoming his
fear of rats by killing a rat and cooking it up and eating it to
learning how to kill somebody with a pencil and the story about his
fighting ring, to name a few.

Nice to know I can always count on you to say something ridiculous.

"The anti-regulation business ethos is based on the charmingly naive notion
that people will not do unspeakable things for money." - Dana Carpender

Quoted by Paul Ciszek (pciszek at panix dot com). But what I want to know
is why is this diet/low-carb food author doing making pithy political/economic
statements?

Nevertheless, the above quote is dead-on, because, the thing is - business
in one breath tells us they don't need to be regulated (which is to say:
that they can morally self-regulate), then in the next breath tells us that
corporations are amoral entities which have no obligations to anyone except
their officers and shareholders, then in the next breath they tell us they
don't need to be regulated (that they can morally self-regulate) ...

I don’t remember liking Will that much, but this is making me want to revisit it. Having Amazon[1] deliver it to my door for $4.66 makes that easy. I’m sorry about all those brick and mortar bookstores that are vanishing, but...well you know. I miss them, but not enough to pay $35.00 plus sales tax to go to the bookstore and have them order the book Will for me.

Liddy’s radio program as been off the air in Nashville for a good while now. I was on the same page with him politically, so there wasn’t much new there, but I did enjoy his stories about his Lingenfelter Corvette, Mrs. Liddy’s guns, etc. He did a number of local shows with Ronnie Barrett who manufactures the world famous Barrett 50 cal. semi-automatic rifle (check it out on youtube) hereabouts. It was reported that everyone involved was favorably impressed with Mr. Liddy’s courtly manner and demeanor. As an example, the equipment guy was packing up to leave and found a thank you note from Liddy under a piece of his equipment.


[1] Amazon has three distribution centers in Tennessee with 2 million square feet under roof and several thousand jobs. Tennessee unabashedly likes commerce, businesses, profits, jobs, and the resulting increase in state revenues. We work hard to make all that easy.

I know you think I'm a god, but, alas, even *I* cannot do the impossible.

I lost all interest in Liddy after learning of his childhood as a slave on
Tatooine....r
