This bothers the living dickens out of me. I too have questions for Michael Ware.

Michael Ware, I ask where are the enemy positions?

Michael Ware, if this was WWII would you also be fraternizing with the Nazi's?

Michael Ware, how does it feel fraternizing with Jihadists that want to kill infidels and American soldiers?

Michael Ware, Do you understand the enemy has used you like Tokyo Rose?

This just rubs me really wrong and I dont think I'm out of line.

Now I cannot begin to tell you how much the American people, not to mention the Brits and the Aussies back home, have been significantly misled about the nature of the enemy.

Thats right Michael, if it wasn't for us big bad Americans and Australians, every one in the Middle East would be singing kumbaya and wearing flowers in their hair.

I'm takin bets. How long before this guy is killed and the editor of Time suggests that he was murdered by U.S. troops? Any takers?

[Echo Talon]

sleeping with the enemy

[Echo Talon]

i think that is a bunch of BS, this guys life means nothing to them, think he is trying to make a name for himself.

HH: I'm really fascinated by the question of whether or not it's ever good journalism to consort with the enemy in search of interesting stories. And there's not denying, Michael, where you get scoops. It's fascinating to read. You've got a great deal of courage, of physical courage, in doing this. So no one's denying that. I'm just wondering whether or not there's a line that you have in your mind reconciled yourself to crossing not once, but scores and scores of times, to report on the enemy, and whether or not that's a good thing. And you think it is, I think I hear you saying, because the public will not otherwise know what it is that you're reporting. Is that a fair summary?

MW: That is fairly accurate, and let's look at it this way. I mean, you're sitting back in a comfortable radio studio, far from the realities of this war.

HH: Actually, Michael, let me interrupt you.

MW: If anyone has a right...

HH: Michael, one second.

MW: If anyone has a right to complain, that's what...

HH: I'm sitting in the Empire State Building. Michael, I'm sitting in the Empire State Building, which has been in the past, and could be again, a target. Because in downtown Manhattan, it's not comfortable, although it's a lot safer than where you are, people always are three miles away from where the jihadis last spoke in America. So that's...civilians have a stake in this. Although you are on the front line, this was the front line four and a half years ago.

Oh, I love it. A little media pissing match about who's in more danger.

Michael Ware is a bonehead and his "mission" sickens me.

Do you know if Hugh Hewitt's radio show plays in the DC area. I listen to Rush when I can and Laura. However, Hannity is becoming so bad that I can no longer listen to him. I would love to listen to Hewitt instead. He seems to have substantive discussions and very interesting guests whom he confronts nicely, but firmly, like this idiot.

[Echo Talon]

HH is good for a change of pace so is Michael Medved.

[SWake]

In the course of describing the various meetings he's had with the enemy: "I mean, on three occasions, I was present when a discussion took place about whether I should be killed or sold, or goodness knows what else, and my fate has rested in their hands while they talk about this around me in a language I don't understand."

Uh, if you don't understand the language, Mike, how do you know they were talking about killing of selling you?

If I thought he was religious, I would wonder if he was trying to set himself up as a Joseph figure (whose brothers threw him into a well and discussed whether to kill or sell him).

I've been thinking the same thing every time i see this piece of trash appear on my TV.

Reminding myself...


THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: Article III: Section 3: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or on confession in open court. The Congress shall have power to declare the punishment of treason, but no attainder of treason shall work corruption of blood, or forfeiture except during the life of the person attainted."

[TheSpy]

He hasn't been killed because he's a tool and they the terrorists know that. Why kill him, when you have this blabbering idiot talking about how he has met Al Queda and crap....

[driftless]

The attitude of many American reporters is similar to Ware's. Scott Pelley of NBC spent time with terrorists in Iraq and either wrote an article about it or made some sort of film. When questioned about his patriotism in consorting with the enemy, he snorted that as a reporter, he was not bound by simple rules of patriotism and loyalty to a particular country. I think the lash ought to be used on these people. And then a few of them hung. Imagine if some reporter-nut had done that during WWII. He would have been shot on sight.

[Patriot from Philly]

Thanks. I feel bad that I'm so negative about Hannity since I know he does a lot for the soldiers.

I tried to listen to him going home from work this week and could only listen a few minutes.

Me, me, me, shootout, let's talk about me. Alec Baldwin, me. Me, me, construction worker me, I betcha Hollywood stars are talking about me.

HH seems much more substantive and issue focused.

[Echo Talon]

Hannity is ok sometimes I can't really listen to the same shows all the time, i need a change of pace.

Laura Ingraham
Michael Medved
Hewitt
Levin
Glenn Beck :)
Bill Bennett
Mike Galagar sp?
Rusty Humphries....
Mike Reagan.
Rush Limbaugh

It's nice to get a mix so that you can form an opinion, also keeps it interesting

[browardchad]

A little media pissing match about who's in more danger.

Exactly. Hewitt avoids confrontation of Ware's treason by implying he's brave for simply being in NYC. Well, how about the millions of people who live and work there every day, Hugh? Not because they're particularly brave, but because they need to eat, pay the rent and support their families? Those that don't have book sales and a law degree and political pals to fall back on?

But, hey, Hewitt can't afford to really tick off his media pals, no matter how vile their behavior; he wouldn't want to get kicked out of the club or have to scramble for radio guests.

[Patriot from Philly]

American reporters are only nominally US citizens. They actually belong to a super class of world wide citizens known as the International Socialist Elites. They are the ones who should be running the world and they consist of media, political class in Europe, legal system in Europe and US.

The American reporters admire their European counterparts, but must tone down their anti-Americanism because of the hicks reading their nonsense at home.

They sit around the hotels in Baghdad and talk to the international left friends and send out their Batthisst stringers to report the news and that's why we have the junk we have.
