Talking Up a Storm

Great story!

In a market where local radio content is almost unheard of in the 21st century, Joyca Kaufman is a breath of fresh air, and the only show that's worthwhile on WFTL.

Get rid of bigots like Bill O'Reilly, Laura Ingraham, and Glenn Beck, and dump all those Air America marxists. Give us more talkmasters who intelligently cover local and national issues like Joyce Kaufman does so well.

Why do some people have such a hard time understanding that you can be against people who have entered the country illegally without being against immigration per se? Like Joyce says, if the law is enforced, and they can't get jobs any more, illegals will leave voluntarily.

Calling an illegal alien an undocumented worker is like calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist.

Thank you, Amy, for a great article about an unsung hero of local radio, or what's left of it here in Broward. The Joyce Kaufman Show is the only thing worthwhile on WFTL any more, since they ditched local personality Kelley Mitchell, liberal talker Alan Colmes, and libertarian talker Neal Boortz, and almost all local content in recent years.

Many of WFTL's and WIOD's "conservative" syndicated talkers are the type of bigots who want this to be a Christian country, and WINZ's Air America "progressive" talkers all subscribe to the marxist Hate America First point of view, desiring a socialist state. All too weird and subversive for me. That's why I like Joyce. She's neither a marxist nor a theocrat.

But if you depend on this article alone, you may misunderstand Joyce Kaufman. Joyce was a Vietnam-demonstrating flower child of the 1970s, but she grew up. She still hates Bush and the religious right as much as anyone of her persuasion, even asking on air "will someone give Bush a blow job so we can impeach him?" But she has learned from experience that the far-left liberal moveon agenda isn't the answer to everything in life, and that the left is often quite wrong.

Joyce has matured enough in her five decades on earth to know that there are racists on both sides of the street, not only the folks with the white hoods, but the race-baiters like Jackson and Sharpton who cry "racism" at the least provocation, and use that as an excuse for the black hoods in the hood. She's too smart to buy 100% of the Democrat party line. She's also learned that if we don't defend our country against invaders, of all types, there will be no place left in the world where she could speak out like she does, without being jailed or beheaded.

So New Times paints her as some kind of jingoistic opportunist female version of Michael Savage, rather than as a liberal who wised up and grew up to become sort of a moderate. Other than that misrepresentation, I really enjoyed the article.

BTW, Joyce was also a talker on the old WFTL 1400, under the previous owners, long before 2001, the date in the article. I think her time at WFTL might date back to even before King Paul and Steve Kane were the owners.

One other point.... The author asks "is it Christian to punish teenagers because their parents broke the law?" Huh? How is failing to make them eligible for a new government program, a new giveaway, defined as punishing them? The key word is GIVEAWAY. (Everything the government gives to illegal aliens it must first take from someone else.) And how is "Christian" relevant to government policy? Read the first amendment.

Illegal Aliens, not "undocumented immigrants". This is an inflitration and an invasion of the United States of America. Do NOT put headings on your stories such as undocumented workers this and that. JOSEPH MARTIN LIVERMORE oN YOUR VALIDATION CODE PLEASE MAKE IT MORE CLEAR WHAT IS A ZERO (0) AND WHAT IS AN O.

I listed to Joyce years ago back in the old Al Rantel/Steve Kane days and wasn't all that big a fan. I found her again on WFTL just as she took up the fight against illegal immigration. WOW, talk about a talk show host being born again! She has me listening most every day and calling in on occasion ever since. Joyce says exactly what I and many Americans in South Florida feel about illegal aliens, the preservation of our language, and our country's sovereignty. Joyce has singlehandedly tackled a subject that has been squelched and labeled taboo for many years by the South Florida media. Though Joyce is of Hispanic descent, she doesn't pander to South Florida's Hispanic population. She speaks "straight up" and lays the truth out on the table whether you like it or not. How wonderful it is to finally have someone on South Florida's airwaves who has the cajones to speak up for America and the American majority in South Florida. We Americans in South Florida, have long been fed up with taking a back seat to those who have migrated here illegally and those here legally who don't care to speak the language of this country or assimilate. In Joyce, we have a voice and a medium to tell the world exactly what we think without feeling like a racist for doing so. God bless Joyce for her conviction, bravery, and patriotism. You go girl!

This comment is for Joyce Kaufman. I have listened to her program a few times and most of the time agreed with her, until one stupid comment for a talk show host to say.
afew weeks ago she commented that Bill Clinton would screw around in the White House and something to the effect that Hillary would have a BOOB JOB. That is a realclassy statement. I know that I will not hear from her,but that is OK.She has a lot of class,
of course, ALL LOW.
PS: She has to learn what Hillary has forgot
