Who in the hell is this delusional ass on Anderson Cooper 360?
Hugh Hewitt, I think is his name. Delay is no big deal. Let's talk about Libby later. The Dems are weak, they don't know what they're doing. Wishful thinking that Rove may be in trouble.

GAK!!!!! I need a shower!

6. But Anderson did not have a Mike malloy/Janeane Garofalo/Randi Rhodes
to COUNTER him.. a few subtle digs and then on to the next "story" does not do us much good.. Hewitt's slime is there unrefuted..for all to see..

A lie unrefuted..stands :puke:

2. Hewitt is a low-end major league right wing nut radio host
Edited on Mon Nov-07-05 10:34 PM by CatholicEdHead
I have heard about him here and there, nothing impressive of course. He is syndicated, but at off-times.

http://rightwingnews.com/interviews/hewitt.php

"John Hawkins: Are there any political websites that you could recommend to our readers?

Hugh Hewitt: I go to Free Republic every day, probably 20 times. I bet you that I've heard every major story first on Free Republic, except for 9/11 (I was broadcasting on 9/11 while it happened). Now there are some nuts at Free Republic, some absolute off the wall goofballs. I always warn my listeners and friends in the blogosphere that you have to learn to work that site to avoid the goofballs, but in terms of having thousands people looking for news and posting it, it is far, far, faster than any of the news services.

23. I think I should read all his stuff now!
Thank You, kind one, for the links! Very interesting.


"Hazlitt continued to write on about politics and his most important books on this subject is Political Essays with Sketches of Public Characters (1819). In the book Hazlitt explains how the admiration of power turns many writers into "intellectual pimps and hirelings of the press."

4. It was disgusting!
What an insult to Edwards. Intelligent politician vs. Rightwing Radio Hack. Plus, Cooper gave the nutjob twice as much time as Edwards.

Ick factor = HIGH

7. Anderson is a sellout! He invited the jerks. He chose the topic of how
pathetic the Democratic leadership is. Give me Aaron Brown back, and Anderson, go cover hurricanes and Natalie!

10. Dems in disarray? Anderson LIES
Why didn't he do a "Dems pull together" and show footage of Reid shutting down the senate?

Oh, that's right, Anderson's been gone the last two weeks. He missed some of the most significant news we've had. Guess it takes some time to iron out your new contract with the CNNSpinsRight network.

17. The frozen soldier is an interesting story.. TO HIS FAMILY
and the the MILITARY..

It would be a lot more important to see how our president is doing on his "South American Magical Misery Tour"

18. That's been the line today
Dems have no authority to talk about the war, they're weak because they were duped, the shut down was a stunt. It takes unity to combat that and the grassroots is repeating half this stuff. Not to mention Hillary believing she has to be tough on defense to win. We're closer than we were last year, but still have a ways to go.

15. Anderson's doing a good job...
show moves quickly, has a little of this and
a little of that. Good contrast between Edwards
and Hewitt. I do hope they get Anderson out
the studio also.

21. This topic from Anderson doesn't surprise me.
I was saddened when Aaron Brown got the boot. Anderson, I think, is still willing to "sellout" to gain popularity. This was his teaser story..."why can't dems capitalize on rethug problems". I knew not to watch because it would make me angry. I guess it was just what I thought.

I will miss Aaron Brown. His even-handed style of delivering the news has become a distant memory....Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, and so on... Won't be watching AC too much.
