Failed Dem. candidate and Iraq Vet Paul Hackett blows a gasket on O'Reilly Factor

If I remember correctly, he was a JAG officer. The TV program not withstanding, a chaplain gets closer to the action.

Thanks for the info! That tirade was one of the most outrageous performances I have ever seen from ANYONE in the MSM. It was absolutely pathetic--and needs to be seen to be appreciated.

[ShowMeMom]

I didn't watch tonight as I cannot stand it when Kasich is hosting. He is simply the worst guest-host, Gibson is better

Anybody is better than Kasich. He's a pathetic whiner.

[BobS]

"Why, oh why, can't someone fill in for SHEP!?"

And permanently. I just don't like him either. No explanation as to why. I will not watch him and his histrionics. It's irritating to me.

[William Tell 2]

Kasich is one of those Republicans/conservatives who feels he has to apologize for being a Republican/conservative and wants to show people that all Republicans/conservatives are not really bad people.

Refer to JKack Kemp / Al Gore debate 1996

[Earthdweller]

OK. I'm gonna watch this at 11. This had better be good and not just another "Made you look" moment.

I don't watch O'Smiley when O'Smiley isn't there. :)

[Don Carlos]

Kasich didn't handle it well, in my opinion

IMO, O'Reilly is unwatchable trash when Kasich sits in as host! He should have pulled the plug on Hackett after the first outburst! It was obvious that further input from him would be gibberish. I felt sorry for Dan Senor, having to sit there in the studio and take that trash talk.

Me? I'da walked off!

Paul Hackett has also done some talk radio by substituting for Jerry Springer on his Air America Radio show


On May 30, 2006 Hackett filed a class action lawsuit against the United States Department of Veterans Affairs over the compromise of personal information of 26.5 million veterans which may have fallen into the hands of a thief

[GunRunner]

Oh..my..God..

I cannot believe what I just saw. I'd like to see Tommy Franks debate this pink underwear liberal Hackett. What an absolute piece of human waste.

[BobS]

" I felt sorry for Dan Senor, having to sit there in the studio and take that trash talk... Me? I'da walked off!

I disagree. Hackett is an idiot and should have been given more time to spew. Senor could have more time to look at him like he's an idiot. That went over well. Just time enough to say something to Hackett that would get him worked up enough to climb walls. On video.

[DTogo]

Franks has too much class for that punk. I'd like to see Franks run in '08, maybe as a VP for the "gravitas" factor!

Nice FR homepage! :)

[AdvisorB]

I think Kasich could fit into Shemp's loafers perfectly.

[Suzy Quzy]

Kasich is so lame.

[Suzy Quzy]

Dan Snor has it hard enough being married to Campbell Brown.

[Suzy Quzy]

LOL!!! Shep is EMBARRASSSING!!

[Suzy Quzy]

OMG!!! What an AWFUL person!!!!

[battleax]

John Kasich is filling in for O'Reilly Kimberly Gillfoyle is filling in for John Gibson...Jim Angle is filling in for Brit Hume. Why, oh why, can't someone fill in for SHEP!? I'll drink to that. After seeing his shenanigans in reporting during Katrina we haven't watched him until tonight. We were interested in what has happened in MS over the past year. As always the leadership has done its job while NO sits in filth. Go Haley !!! Haley for President!!!!!

[Suzy Quzy]

LOL!! O'Donnell WILL be hard to beat....but this guy was Un believably MEAN and NASTY and CHILDISH...right, he's a Democrat...that's what they do!!

[TheSarce]

The 'gold standard' for liberal 'melt-downs' is still Lawrence O'Donnell's mad-foaming-at-the-mouth when discussing the Swift Boat vets opposition to John Kerry.

Absolutely true, and we all know the sequels are almost never as good as the original blockbuster-- Jaws 2, etc. So Hackett's attempt at Creepy Liar 2: The Return of the Slavering Moonbat was just bound to pale in comparison to the original!

It was an astonishing spectacle, though. The "Serious Democrat Military Veteran" mask came off BIGTIME tonight. And Kasich owes the viewing audience an apology-- immediately after Hackett called Senor an "Unterfuhrer" (!!), Kasich turned to Dan Senor and denounced "namecalling," but the example he was outraged about was calling anti-war folks "appeasers"! Amazing.

[Common Tator]

Kasich was taking issue with those Republicans who were calling the Democrats appeasers...which they clearly are.

I tuned Kasich out. He is a poor excuse for a host of a talk show. He is the amatuer hour personified. Roger Ailes is a fool for leaving him on the show. He is the only person I know of who can make Rita Cosby look like a good host.
