.... and his theory of the forms. Because he is so involved in metaphysics, his views on politics are more theoretical as opposed to actual.

.... Stern has lost all sense of morals and values, if he had any at all. Stern has absolutely no respect for himself nor does he have any towards his cohorts, and the general public as a hole for that matter. He constantly pushes the limits, and is a nuisance to the air waves. His words are offending and detrimental to our society. In the past people have viewed Howard Stern as a vulgar pig who degrades every one that he encounters. After constantly ducking from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council (CBSC), and many activist groups, Stern still manages to stay on the air.
