Smith isn't alone in being a dipshit.

Most sports talkers work at stations that either have active RW news programming (WLW) or have sister stations that are 100% RW news programming.

Lots of "common sense" that betrays a shallow understanding of the issues.

Also: thank you for providing a text synopsis of the video. Because I won't watch a video.
