His cheeks are starting to flair out to accommodate the "windbaggedness" of his neo-con utterings. He is just an "O'Reilly" who went to good schools, and learned how to speak the King's English...,but cut the classes on ethics. Brit Hume is the quintessential, right-wing, windbag.

Is this the best the right can offer? I know their ship is taking on water, but aren't there any bailers who can at least feign intelligence and who are somewhat engaged with reality? Who'd have thought the Right would find itself on the Firing Line and the only ammo they'd have would consist of duds and dum-dums? Mayday! Mayday! Paging William Buckley! Paging William Buckley!

Maybe if more of you chickenhawk neocons would bravely enlist to help combat the insurgents, the debacle that the Bush administration has visited upon the United States and the rest of the world would see the light of day. But since this so called "war" has been built on lies and has been mismanaged from its insidious start with killing, maiming and squandering of hundreds of billions of dollars, the violence has become as acceptable as the casual reference to the number of Americans killed and wounded by neocon pundits and Bush supporters as just the price you pay in a war. More people are killed in accidents at home than are killed in Iraq so we should not complain because our losses are minimal compared to other wars and accidental deaths in the US is the usual line. This is an obscene comparison when a soldier loses his life for a blunder. If ignorance is bliss--'Tis folly to be wise.
