Whatever one thinks of Hannity's brain, the guy is relentless. He has pulled this so many times on the libs and gets away with it. Good for him.
Hannity is incapable of extemporaneous debate- unlike Limbaugh, Medved, Coulter, etc- and can only repeat his talking points. Begala is the same so I have to believe it was more a comedy of errors than a debate.
HuffingPuffing is still evading every question. Fifteen minutes of dodging so far. Outer space isn't as vacuous as her skull.
Begala is a very poor liar and made himself sound like a COMPLETE FOOL!
Folks
I listen to Hannity on a regular basis, but I must note one thing. Am I the only one who is getting really bored with that whole "Sean, you're a great American" nonsense?
It gets really silly after a while..
I don't know about any claims, but I wouldn't be surprised.
There is a local radio talk show host named Darrell Ankarlo, who has had to start having body guards since this started...Cindy was out to get him (on Michael Moore's blog), before he had ever talked with her...
He went down to Crawford last weekend and she refused to meet him...
Anyway...I don't doubt that anyone that speaks negative about Cindy is getting threats..
Begala's come back could have been show a lie as well. When the Begala said that Kerry shouldn't have believed Buhs's lies, he should have fired back, that ALL of those quotes were from when Clinton was president (which they were).
Hannity ran the Clinton thing past him, to which he replied that Clinton was right and the only reason there weren't any WMDs in Iraq was because Clinton's random cruise missile ploy destroyed them all.
In other words, Begala was saying:
I can't stand Zsa Zsa huffnpuff. LOL!
I am listening to it right now...
Begala just lies, and lies...sigh
He never said they were quotes from President Bush. I heard the interview and Begala was slippin' and slidin' in his own excrement! Hannity nailed him!!!
That's about the 500th time Hannity has pulled that trick, can't believe Begala fell for it.
You are KIDDING!!!!...Begala REALLY claimed that those cruise missles that hit ONE building took out the weapons of mass destruction?
You are KIDDING!!!!...Begala REALLY claimed that those cruise missles that hit ONE building took out the weapons of mass destruction?
No kidding. He said that there were no WMDs because Clinton's bombings had been effective. Honest.
I use this tactic all the time on libs. Here's the bait:
"One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line."
President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998
"If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq's weapons of mass destruction program."
President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998
"Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face."
Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998
"He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983."
Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998
"[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq's refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs."
Letter to President Clinton, signed by Sens. Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others Oct. 9, 1998
"Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process."
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998
"Hussein has . . . chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies."
Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999
"There is no doubt that . . . Saddam Hussein has invigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of an elicit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies."
Letter to President Bush, Signed by Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL,) and others, Dec, 5, 2001
"We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandated of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them."
Sen. Carl Levin (D, MI), Sept. 19, 2002
"We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country."
Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power."
Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002
"We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002
"The last UN weapons inspectors left Iraq in October of 1998. We are confident that Saddam Hussein retains some stockpiles of chemical and biological weapons, and that he has since embarked on a crash course to build up his chemical and biological warfare capabilities. Intelligence reports indicate that he is seeking nuclear weapons . . . ."
Sen. Robert Byrd (D, WV), Oct. 3, 2002
"I will be voting to give the President of the United States the authority to use force-if necessary-to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real and grave threat to our security."
Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Oct. 9, 2002
"There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years . . . . We also should remember that we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D, WV), Oct 10, 2002
"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do."
Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members . . . . It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."
Sen. Hillary Clinton (D, NY), Oct 10, 2002
"We are in possession of what I think to be compelling evidence that Saddam Hussein has, and has had for a number of years, a developing capacity for the production and storage of weapons of mass destruction."
Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL), Dec. 8, 2002
"Without question, we need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator, leading an oppressive regime ... He presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone to miscalculation . . . . And, now. he is miscalculating America's response to his continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction . . . . So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real . . . ."
Sen. John F. Kerry (D, MA), Jan. 23. 2003
THE ANSWER IS NO.
I cruised by Air America today for a few minutes and Randi RHodes was saying that the Iraqi people "overwhelmingly" feel that they were better under Saddam than they are now...
AND, she said she knows that the rape rooms that Saddam had "couldn't hold a candle to the ones that are going on now"...and said that Iraqi parents are made to watch while our troops are raping their children...oh, and the interragators are doing it also..
Man, that takes the cake of lying...We all KNOW that if ANYBODY in the Clinton Administration, anyone in the LIBERAL PRESS, anyone at the UN, REALLY believed such a LOONY claim, they would have been shouting it from evey hill top. Clinton would have informed the world how he had SAVED the planet. This is downright CHILD-LIKE...
And to think, if we'd only known he'd turn out to be such a maroon, you and I coulda beaten the snot out of Paul Begala any day we wanted to.
I beg to differ, rush is not a good debater and he handles it without debating. He lets the freakazoid spew their filth, then he cuts their mike and trashes the crap out of their argument. He only has Guests who are of like minds, that is his style and I like it that way. I have been listening for 13 years every day he is on. Walter Williams started doing the same thing, and that is fine. Sean does a great job and if he was not friends with idiots like Rangel when would we see their clock cleaned as brutally?
