Hannity did go on to the next question-
“Senator, how much is this bill going to cost the uS taxpayers in MEDICARE and social security benefits? Have you done a cost analyis? Heritage says $2.5 TRILLION, What are your figures, sir?”
After skating, blustering, and bloviating on this question, that’s when Voinovich really went off the shallow end headfirst and pulled some figures out of his butt, about how 30-40% of the illegals didn’t want to be US citizens would go home after 10 months and never collect social security anyway. Read the transcripts!
“Going on to the next question” (after accepting blathering non answers) is how liberals like Chrissy Matthews conduct “in depth” interviews.
Just listening now, this clown does not know what the fairness doctrine is.
He needs to check into a Sunrise.
As I recall, he said that he didn’t read the Heritage report. Frankly, even those numbers are suspect.
When the senator tried to explain about a third of the illegals not wanting citizenship etc. Hannity wouldn’t let him finish his thought.
I agree about Matthews. HIs show is anything but “Hardball”. It’s more like “Curveball” as he loves to set up his guests with the unexpected. I hate to see Hannity ending up like him as he doesn’t need to do that when in an interview.
Did you ever see a Bill Buckley interview? I recall one he did of a young Jesse Jackson. KIlled him with kindness and made the audience aware of who the man really was without brow beating him.
