Wild-Eyed, Left-Wing Democrats

I've never seen much need to write about the goings-on in live talk radio, but there was an exchange on February 24 unlike anything I've heard since I first opened a mic in 1975. It was so profoundly bizarre it cries for further attention.

The exchange was between radio host Sean Hannity and Congressman Maurice Hinchey, a seven-term Democrat from upstate New York. The premise of the interview was straightforward: Did Hinchey have any information to support his claim that White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove planted the fake documents on which CBS News based its discredited report about President Bush's Texas Air National Guard service?

As most liberals are wont to do, Hinchey fielded the simple yes-or-no question by expounding on any number of other topics not even remotely related to the query. Hannity allowed the Gentleman from New York to expound on commentator Armstrong Williams, former Talon News employee Jeff Gannon and myriad other theories regarding White House manipulation of the news media.

After letting Hinchey ramble for an appropriate period of time, Hannity asked the question again. The scene repeated itself. A third opportunity was offered by the host; the interview digressed into a Groundhog Day parody. On and on it went.

You know, all the Democrats have to do is STOP with the hatred
and looking in the rearview mirror, and come up with an
articulable alternative plan for the country. But they waste
time on "Halliburton" and "Ohio was stolen" and all that utter
garbage.

Democrats act like immature children who don't get their way.

As the country wakes up to increasing dangers, more Americans will ignore these children.

It's a matter of survival and it's inevitable.
