Wesley Clark Surprises Hannity--sounds like Wes did well.

Wesley Clark neutralized Hannity's hateful rhetoric with civility urging him to stop politicizing an important issue.

Wesley Clark Surprises Hannity



.....After Hannity made his usual veiled accusations of treason, Clark calmly responded refusing to get defensive.He told Hannity that this should not be a political issue at all and we should all pull together and focus on the issue so we can find a solution.We need to look at the situation and evaluate. "We need a process."

Colmes then showed a clip of Rick Santorum comparing Democrats to Nazis and wondered why there was no outrage expressed over Santorum's comment. Clark dismissing the whole controversy said " Whoever uses the Nazi word first, loses. We have a national security issue here"
Clearly, he considered the bickering counter productive.

Comment: Clark's refusal to play politics sapped Hannity's power completely. In essence, Clark was saying this problem is real so stop deflecting our attention. Let's look at it and solve the problem together because it's wrong and the orders are coming from the top.
When Hannity thanked Clark for his appearance,his expression was somber and slightly sour.

1. I'm wondering how long before
Clark is booted from the show. It sounds like it's not going the way they probably had it planned. :rofl:

2. Don't forget Chicago Sun Times' inaccurate report of the incident
I made sure the author and the editor got an email about this:

6. LMAO
Stripped of his bombast and BS, Hamnity is reduced to something resembling a sour-pussed schoolboy forced to bang the erasers after class.

ESAL Sean, ESAL.
