Discussing Israel/Gaza on right-wing talk radio

I had an unexpectedly substantive discussion of the Middle East and the "Islamic threat" on "The Hugh Hewitt Show" last night.

    Wally-Bait

    Yo, Wally:

    [snip] ...I don't plan to engage you, rise to your bait or otherwise 'debate' with hate mongers. I plan to look into how to stop it.

    Well, that was a lie, since you continued to "engage" commenters here, you rose to bait, and you failed to find a way to stop it. I could have helped you there --- click on the white X in the red box in the upper right hand corner of your screen.

    And to use such a cute little marsupial as a handle. For shame.

    Meanwile, back at the Retzilian Observatory, my comments on current events: I think Obama dissed Feinstein on purpose (ha ha), just to show her who's boss, even though Biden made a courtesy call. I am quite pleased with the choices of Johnsen (gotta love her) and Panetta. I think the Senate should have sworn in Burris and Franken (but watching Darth swear in the new senators was muy bizarro). I predict they'll both be seated in the very near future.

    Jeb Bush says he won't run for senate in 2010, but watch what he does in 2012. We haven't seen the last of the Bush family in national politics.

    I feel sorry for Hugh Hewett and didn't find him nearly as polite as Glenn did, but I have a low threshhold of moonbat republican tolerance. Really low.

    Too bad about Richardson. ((eyeroll)) Me thinks there is still a lot of selective law enforcement in New Mexico. I kinda wish Obama had given Iglesias a job.

    And to Jebbie - not to be a nitpicker, but Cheney got his fifth military deferment when his wife got conveniently pregnant, not when he got married. Just a little FYI. Loved the list, BTW.
