Michael, when they start shouting it means that you have won.
They started shouting. You won. Great job.

You did great Michael. Barron is a pompous ass and his histrionics were a sharp contrast to your demeanor and presentation.
I was dismayed that Sean Let Alan move the conversation away from Jesse -- would have loved to see you pound that spike right into Barron's forehead.
All in all though, you came out the best. Barron looked like a wild-eyed weasel, and it was obvious that Alan was very uncomfortable and couldn't wait to get the subject off of Jesse. They know Jesse screwed up with his statement, and are scared to death that a strong, articulate Black man is out there getting the message out about Jesse's true "Color"

For some reason every Democrat since Carville has used shouting and talking over as a way to prevent the other side from making a case.
It is just plain stupid for them to do so.
Any one who has been an actor on a stage knows from crowd reactions, that acting like an bully does not win the viewers. When players act like a bully, they don't get applause they get booed.
Remember the object is to get viewers to like and respect you and therefore tend to accept your positions on issues. The object is to win the hearts and minds of the undecided center. My Dad taught me politics as a 16 year old teenager. He used subjects I was really interested in (at the time) to teach me. I remember Dad saying, "Being obnoxious is not a way to get a girl in the back seat or a voter in a booth." Dad knew how to get my attention.
Imagine the two of you were each trying to sell a viewer a car, rather than a policitcal view. Do you really think that his yelling and interrupting, and being a bully would help him sell the viewers a car? People don't buy used cars from bullies.
If they wouldn't buy a used car from him, do you think they would buy his political views?
You did fantastic. You weren't the bully.. you did something far more valuable to your cause. You made the sale.
A smooth pavement beats a bumpy road every time.
You done GOOD!!!

I don't remember the comment you made Micheal, but that comment which spoke of nothing but the truth, I pumped my fist in the air, clapped and it had me rolling out of my chair in laughter. The very comment which set off Councilman Barron into his nonstop nonsensical rant and attack. That much I do remember. He kept attacking you, because you were exposing JJ and the councilman for who they truly are.

I wish I hadn't missed this. It sounds like you did great!
I am bursting with pride. LOL
To: mhking
You did well! I only wish that they had muzzled Charles Barron. I notice that the lib guests now just keep talking once they are given the floor. The woman opposite Laura Ingraham in the earlier segment took the same approach. By the way, Charles Barron is a miserable anti-American, and what Jesse Jackson said is simply outrageous.

You were great. Hannity should have shut Barron up so you could say what you had to say. Maybe he'll have you on again so you can speak. You did well, my friend. Good job.

I saw you...you did good!! The other guy came off looking very unlikable...being rude and immature up front with you, saying some very stupid things that made his side look bad. I don't think anyone could possibly side with what he was saying about Iraq...Not even normal democrats are that extreme. You kept your composure and did a great job getting your message out.

Nice job, Michael. Grace under pressure and the lone class act of the segment.

Michael, you did fine. Barron is a pompous a**hole who could NOT debate the issue, he could only shout over you, refuse to let you have a moment to present your views. Standard tactics for mentally handicapped Dims. It's a shame that FNC allows it, it brings FNC down to ABC/CBS/CNN's level.
Kudos to you.

That was absolutely great! Wish I'd seen it, but with all the crap hitting the fan (militarily) yesterday, I was on intellectual overload by 4 o'clock. Spent the evening reading.

Charles Barron has never added a single comment worth hearing to any show I have seen him on. Why does H&C keep bringing him on?

I thought Sean did a good job of summarizing Jackson's moronic comments as well...I was able to get the gist of what your organization was saying about him. I know they had the Project 21 logo on the screen the whole time you were talking which is a pretty nice plug. Hey, you may want to try calling Sean's radio show today...If he talks about the Jesse Jackson stuff, I'm sure he' dlike to have you on anf give your group more publicity. It's worth a shot!

"Lady your not only rude, you're ignorant as well." I saw that show as well. She claimed that the reason the birth rate among unmarried black women was so high was because of white men raping them!

I remember that as well. I think Walter was trying not to laugh as this statement was so stupid.

Would you believe I blanked at that point!?Blanks happen to the smartest among us. I know that was frustrating for you, but it was at that point that I realized how big a disadvantage it is to be alone in a studio rather than in the group. Sean would have bailed you out there.

You did very well, M. You came across as clear, intelligent, and strong. The fact that the others wouldn't shut-up and conducted what amounts to a filibuster had nothing to do with you; that was obvious.
Sean should have interrupted and silenced the shouting so that your clear thoughts could come through, but apparently they had limited the time, and he was taken a bit by surprise and therefore somehow didn't manage to do this. That's my impression.
All this notwithstanding, you were impressive. I hope we'll see you in the Newsmedia much more in the future.

Michael, great job! I commend and respect anyone who goes up against that ultimate racist pig- Charles Barron.
Maybe the video will be on Foxnews.com
