[liberal N proud]

1. Hosting the Springer trash fest - And people thought he could be Senator?

:wtf:

[eShirl]

4. trash fest?

explain

[dogday]

6. I believe Paul can wear many hats,

A Soldier's, A Politician, A Radio Host, I bet he can even walk and chew gum at the same time.....

[Greeby]

2. wow, listen to him go

:bounce:

[eShirl]

3. he sounds like he's been doing radio for years

talking about illegal immigration at the moment

[Greeby]

5. Oh snap

You hear that smackdown of Chuck Schumer just now :wow:

[acmejack]

7. Hackett is good!

Hire this guy! He's another Malloy!

[liberalnurse]

28. I heard the show but did not have a chance

to join the post fest. he was superb! A real natural. :applause: :woohoo:

[we can do it]

8. Who the Fuck Cares?

[in_cog_ni_to]

9. Uhhhh......WE DO?

[we can do it]

31. Sorry - I Got Tired of Hearing About the Quitter - He May Be Good On Radio

[eShirl]

11. you cared enough to post

awww

[mod mom]

13. a little testy-huh? You did respond to this post on your own free will.

[Windy]

10. I think he's great!!! He should get a job for AAR

What a great personality!

[AllieB]

12. He's MUCH better than Springer

I usually listen to Stephanie Miller on my local station, but I'm streaming Hackett right now. He's GREAT!

[AllieB]

14. Smacking down wingnuts MUCH more powerfully than Jerry

:thumbsup:

[melissinha]

18. Any smackdown on wingnuts is more powerful than Jerry

cause he doesn't smack them down, he tries to be nice and accomodating but sometimes gets smacked down. Every single one of his guest host puts more smack downs than Jerry.


I am liking this so far, I think that Hackett is right about some of the left-wing Koolaid, our leaders are pussy footing around this and many other issues.... We need real plans and solutions to real problems that need to be implemented.

[Gabi Hayes]

26. left wing kool aid? when does ANYthing left wing get discussed

by any of our 'leaders?', or in the corporate media

left wing?

[Nickster]

15. Wow, he can give Mike a run for his money. n/t

[iconoclastNYC]

16. Wow he's very anti- "illegal" immigratns

"Stop drinking the cool-aid from the Democratic party????"

I really want to like him but when I hear him say stuff like that.... makes me wonder about him.

[bunkerbuster1]

19. I'm going to listen. I imagine I won't like some of what I hear.

but that's ok. y'see, I'm not a ditto-head. I don't mind being challenged.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

20. I heard him earlier while driving and I don't like him. He's

Not a Progressive. When he was debating Schmidt in Ohio he said that the troops were there to protect our country. He's the Kool-aid drinker.

[iconoclastNYC]

22. Are you anti-troop?

The troops are there to protect the country -- that's thier job.

The fact that the civilian leadership lied to get that war started doesn't mean that the troops aren't protecting our country.

The Iraq war is a disaster but lets make sure we are very careful to assign the blame where it belongs.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

24. No, not anti-troops. But the fact of the matter is that they are not in

Iraq to protect us! They are there for the sociopaths own agenda. To think otherwise would to believe that this war is moral and legal.

[iconoclastNYC]

25. Make the focus the sociopaths that started the war.

Saying anything negative in connection with the troops is political suicide.

The troops are heros. The politicians that put them thier are criminals.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

32. And yet I will reiterate again. By serving in Iraq, our troops Are Not

Protecting us, and for any to say that they are, is telling an untruth. I will qualify this by saying that they are there because they are obeying orders to do so, and they are doing their jobs as best as they can. As to being heros? Heros require heroic action and there are some soldiers that are more heroic than others. One must never forget that there are things being done there, under orders that are criminal. ie..the use of napalm in Falluja, Abu Ghraib come to mind first.

[in_cog_ni_to]

17. WOW!!! He's a NATURAL for radio!

He's doing better than Springer ever could! I LOVE HIM!:loveya:

[Cocoa]

21. he sounds like Bill O'Reilly

his voice and speech patterns I mean, not what he's saying. :-)

[iconoclastNYC]

23. A little too much "energy"

A little too bombastic.

[Gabi Hayes]

27. yep....good read. I was trying to figure out what didn't ring true about

him when he burst upon the scene, even though I very much credit his efforts, and agree with much of what he says

he tries a little to hard; overprojects

[iconoclastNYC]

29. I just meant on the radio show.

On the stump or in his interviews I think he was pretty much where I want a candidate to be enthusiasm wise.

I'm sick of politicians who come off like ZZZzzzzz robots (Kerry comes to mind)

[Gabi Hayes]

30. agree on the Kerry comment, unfortunately.

there's something about him, though, that creeps me out

that's not to say I don't support the VERY strong things he's said against the junta
