Kyl calls talk radio liars
Hugh Hewitt show ^ | June 21, 2007 | Hugh Hewitt

Posted on 06/21/2007 6:31:37 PM PDT by fifedom

HH: Now Senator Kyl, why the attacks on talk radio from your colleagues, Senators Lott and Graham? It doesn’t, in any event, it cannot possibly help the party, and it can’t help the bill. What are they thinking?

JK: You know, I hate to speak for my colleagues, but I can suggest in the case of Senator Lott, because I’ve talked to him about it, is just said in frustration. If you look at it from his standpoint and mine, there is so much misinformation, and by the way, a plug for you, whatever your feelings on the legislation, you’ve tried very hard to get facts out. I mean, you just asked me a series of about eight questions that are designed to elicit information.

HH: Right.

JK: Well, not all talk radio is quite that constructive. And I’m afraid that there’s some of my friends who, for ratings or whatever purposes, have chosen to ignore some of the facts, and stress some things that were incorrect.

So, they are going to try and ‘sneak it through’ with the ‘cloture’? Oh, no!

Why did Bush choose not to enforce the laws?

Why didn’t Kyle force Bush to enforce the laws?

Kyle, answer these questions first.

I’m with Hugh 99% on this issue and I also believe Sen. Kyle when he says some hosts aren’t being accurate in explaining the bill.

That doesn’t mean he’s call all other hosts liars.

Don’t you mean if the RINOs vote “for” cloture?

They must harbor some illusion that (a) we (the rank and file) will forgive and forget and/or (b) that these immigrants will be so grateful that they’ll all start voting GOP.

They could always jump back to the Demonrat party just before filing for office in time for their next election cycle. One big happy tent party over there. LOL.

Kyl, like the rest of these panderers have let their pride get in the way of the facts. They want a bill just to say they tried. Just like CFR, their fix will make things much worse instead of any better.

“Bush is a liberal, attempting to tear apart the GOP is what they’re supposed to do.”

I hope you know how correct you are.

Crock Radio has gotten more milage out of “work Americans won’t do” than a Solar Car.

Fact is there is a labor shortage and talkshow hosts won’t answer where we are going to find low wage/skilled workers after we deport the Mexicans.

The senator never used the word “liar”. He did say there was “disinformation”, but the word “liar” takes on a whole new personal meaning that I don’t believe he was implying. It also appears that you created that headline yourself. When I went to the link to read the entire article, the headline was: “Senator Jon Kyl updates on the status of the immigration bill, and news about the amendments being offered.”

While I strongly agree with you on this amnesty matter. You are distorting this a bit. This is what I expect of the main stream media, not FR. Don’t make your own headlines, and put words in someone’s mouth. You should consider writing for newsmax.com.

I would love to see him challenged for re-election by either J.D. Hayworth or Bill Goldwater.

Just FYI J.D. Hayworth has a radio talk show in AZ 4 to 7 pm MST ...http://www.kfyi.com/main.html

He's been burning it up out there

In fact on J.D. Hayworth ...

Free Republic has “Talk Shows” links on the home page...

Who do we ask to have J.D. Hayworth’s Talk Show link added...

And Tony Snow’s removed...

With all due respect, what did I ‘distort’? I merely asked a question. I never even mentioned the word ‘liar’. What headlines am I making? What words am I putting in someone’s mouth?

I’m fairly new here, and maybe what I posted (one sentence) was misunderstood.

They just can’t believe that Americans are smart enough to KNOW what is going on. We didn’t need Rush or Shawn or anyone to tell us what was going on. They insult our intelligence! Thanks to Bush, AZ’s going to be stuck with this jerk for another 5 years, unless they can figure out a way to recall him.

he is the liar. The people of Arizona need to wake up with him and McCain representing everyone illegal and not the citizens of Arizona.

I can’t believe what a sucker I have been to vote for Senator Kyl all these years

You're not a sucker. I voted for him last year as well. He gave no indication of this prior to the last election. He was considered an immigration hawk and was on KFYI constantly letting us know he understood the problem completely.

Yeah, it wasn’t that many years ago that I believed every word McCain spoke on KFYI! I’m a double sucker. Live and learn.

If the Criminal Communist infiltrated Democrat Party takes over in 2008, there will be no ‘10 or ‘12 elections, unless you consider a cratered and decimated America worth voting in.
We have got to elect Thompson and regain the Congress, or we are more than doomed.

I agree. I never thought I would be so negative concerning the GOP. I talked to life long repubs and new repubs who are fed up, most all conservatives. We have to get these people out of office. They don’t represent us.

My husband, who was initially all for legalizing illegals, and he’s more conservative than I am, saw the truth the other day. We hammered this out often for months (in a nice fun way). I still don’t think most see it this way.
