This is not Comey country

Gary Sheler couldn’t wait to get to his second segment, when the “Auto Doctor” comes on and takes creakyengine questions. But first, the morning show host had to get through the news hour. The news was Comey.

Sheler, 70, is the local voice in Kingman and Bullhead City, Ariz., on the stations KAAA and KZZZ, from 7 to 9 a.m., followed by national conservatives Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Laura Ingraham. His Comey spiel is practiced, and he delivers it easily, despite the early hour.

“We’re fed up. We’re so fed up with the Democratic Party pushing this Russia thing,” Sheler said. “They’re trying to find anything to impeach” Trump.

Did callers this morning care about Comey’s ongoing testimony?

“I really don’t think so,” Sheler said when he was off the air. “Part of that is, he’s a showboat looking for attention. He did the same thing to Hillary.”
