HUGH HEWITT and Free Republic: How should we help him help us? [Who **IS** this guy?]

Hugh Hewitt confirms his NEW radio station list: NEW times, cities, call letters ^ | 10/20/2001 | RonDog

You are spot on. Hugh is a good friend of FR. I was a daily listener, but now that Hugh is on in the afternoons, the last hour is about all I hear. Morning glory, to you!

Metro Washington DC. WABS carries Hugh's show but it has a really weak signal--probably have to be across the street to pick it up. I wish he could get on the FM Christian station here (WAVA); it's a SRN station, too. For now, I suppose I'll try to remember to listen via Internet (while I watch FoxNews at the same time!). Thanks for the pings.

Thanks. Well, I tuned in about 3:58 PST, when it was mostly over. In the next hour, there was some backwards mention to his having difficulty saying nuclear correctly (he seemed a bit cranky about it at this point), so I guess I missed what would have been an interesting discussion. I'm glad he's aware of it, hope he had some fun with it.

Thank you for this!

I have a question about Hugh's bumper music: Just before the last segment of his show, Hugh always plays the same haunting melody. Does anyone know what the name of this tune is? I've looked on his website, but can't find it and I know he used to have it listed. Silly me, should have written it down. Thanks!

It is from the recent movie, "Last of the Mohicans." There was a link to a .wav file of it on a previous HH thread.
(I will find it later, and post it here.)

Thanks, RonDog!,/p>

Thanks for the ping to your GREAT work here, RonDog!

This just in! From a Google search for "Hugh Hewitt" and "Free Republic", I found a post from Ron C. about Hugh which was chosen as a Bonus Byte from RJayneJ's WONDERFUL Free Republic Highlights:

Hugh Hewitt is a conservative, and sometimes a dumb conservative - one who frustrates the hell out of me at times with his obvious disconnects from reality... but, on this one, he hits the nail on the head.

The problem here is not some great decision made by the president himself, it is a decision made by a Justice Department that we had far greater hopes for... only to see those hopes continue to be dashed as the corrupted, crippled and discredited DOJ behemoth continues to pervert the very justice it is supposed to uphold - wretchedly failing - miserably, long after supposed "help on the way" arrived, and apparently morphed into little more than a momentary puff of rancid purple smoke.

Where is that help from you AG John Ashcroft? Did you fall into a pit, has someone bound and gagged you? Was your spine surgically removed during confirmation? Or did you perhaps suffer a brain transplant, and the truth is conservative John Ashcroft no longer exists?

No, Hugh - there is considerable doubt in my mind that this thrown spoke, and the one a few days ago, and the one before that will keep the wheels under this administration long enough to get it to the end of "a superb first term." Unless George W. Bush gets a firm grip on a huge tube of glue to keep the spokes of conservatism from flying out of the works, he'll find himself dragging behind the horses running away from disaster behind.

One metaphor is enough, no iceberg is needed - either this administration maintains its promise of conservatism and those who made it possible will extend it, or it continues an already rapid disintegration into what may well be another one term Bush presidency.

Not a RINGING ENDORSEMENT, but the kind of compliment that really validates Hugh's value to those of us here who may be a little more "hard core" on some issues than Hugh is. ;) AND, it showed up in Google, as well as in the Bulldog Bulletin! (ANY PR is good PR.)

Thanks for the heads up! Nice job! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! };^D)
