Great insight into what the OP is saying.
You post like an eight year old, but guess not since you have been posting your "words of wisdom" for over 10 years.
Well said. Hear! Hear!
I also loathe and despise the toad-like toe sucker - even more than I am repulsed by Rove — and I knew Tony Snow and Dana Perino is no Tony Snow — let alone is a conservative.
And this evening, November 17, 2010, Hannity, had one of FoxNews’ repulsive little inhouse liberal creeps on with Miss Coulter, who was not permitted to utter three consecutive words without being talked over.
The suggestion is ludicrous and insults ones intelligence that FoxNews — or come to that any of the Murdoch empire’s world-wide scores of totalitarian-top-heavy Left-Wing media outlets — is “conservative” or “leans Republican.”
To again flog a dead analogy, I know conservatives and Republicans — and FoxNews is yellow-press-TV-Watcher fodder. And so is its every headliner and its every loss-leader weekend creep.
.... I watch his show only if he has a real conservative, like Ann Coulter, on ....

Hannity was talkingover a guest? He drives me crazy when he does that. I find myself yelling at the TV “Shut up and let them finish!!!”
When he was on with Colmes, and a guest was responding to a question from Colmes, you could always hear Hannity in the background saying the guest’s name over and over to interrupt. Very annoying.
The person doing the talking over was one of FoxNews’ creepy little in-house Lanny-Davis-like liberal lightweights: Peter Johnson.
Hannity, who is, as the consequence, over, for me, was encouraging the pathetic little basta*d’s incessant yapping.
FoxNews has jumped the shark.
Not a big one as online news-gathering is an involved, interactive exercise and allows one to do ones own fact-checking.
“Interesting, you know also that Reagan was the guy who ordered us out of Beruit, instead of ordering us to go in and get the stinking little bastards with napalm and carpet bombing.”
Reagan wasn’t a fool who would put retaliation over strategic interest.
No kidding...lots of fresh conservative faces heading for Congress...let's hear from them.
OK
Those ‘strategic interests’ worked out really well, didn’t it?
Beruit was the second defeat of America by Muslims. The first was Iran.
The withdrawal only taught the Muslims that if they make a big enough explosion, kill enough people, America will run away, duck and hide. It was part of the beginning of modern Islamic terrorism.
Don’t get me wrong. I liked RR. But this was a mistake of massive proportions.
So far, their analysis has been correct.
“So far, their analysis has been correct.”
Thus spoke Zarathustra? Or is that your cogent analysis?
We don’t get the chance to replay history in order to learn whether our strategic interests would have ended in disaster had Reagan followed your advice. But Reagan didn’t have the luxury of simply deciding to flex American muscle in order to send a message to Islamic terrorists, assuming we could have decided which group was responsible and where they were gathered. Reagan had a much bigger worry in the form of the Soviet Union which was very active in backing Arab terrorist groups. That was a strategic interest of the first order, and the Soviets would have been more than happy to get us enmeshed in a proxy war to waste our resources. Reagan was a serious man surrounded by advisers like Cap Weinberger whose experience went back to his days as Gen MacArthur’s intelligence officer. Somehow I suspect that their decision to withdraw rates higher at the War College than hubristic fantasies of teaching the Arabs a lesson.
They already have ‘ended in disaster’. That is the current world we live in.
Stand up or shutup, we either do it or we don’t.
There is no way to be “sort of” pregnant.
