I didn't hear the interview, but Hewitt thereafter, when I did hear him, was gushing with praise about Drier (the most powerful man representing California in the Congress, the smartest, etc). Hewitt is very partisan. I don't know if it is an act, or a firmly held belief, but his political analysis is often quite silly, and wrong. But I like Hugh nonetheless. It should be interesting.

It's easy to be effusive about the brains of someone with whom you share common blindspots.

Hugh's a good sport, and very generous with Freepers.
I think he trails John and Ken, as well as Larry Elder, in the afternoon drive slot in SoCal, though. I wonder how or whether he'll respond if John and Ken stretch their ratings gap over the Illegal Alien issue, particularly if Dreier ends up as the target.

You are close, but "partisan" is generous for Hewitt. "Doormat" is more accurate, perhaps "lap-dog" or "wanna-be" would be better. He was so hateful and angry at ol' McClintock, for him to have Dreier on the show at that time smacks of Damage Control. It's all come together here about who and what Hugh is, and its pretty pathetic.

This border issue is the most pressing concern for SoCal. The fact that rather than pushing for the $5 billion that the State is forced to waste on a Federal problem, the fact that problem is caused the by the Feds (read:Congress) doesn't enforce the border, the fact that Dreier and others won't even introduce legislation to throw us a bone here shows how entirely out of touch and corrupt these Congressmen are, but knowing that, that Hugh Hewitt would actually give aid and comfort to these do-nothings when they got righteously criticized speaks volumns for his character.

It's not an act. You'll find his picture under 'smarmy'.
