It is a good thing Mr.O'Neill stays calm because the critical eye of the
people dissing Sean showed a anger that is really out of place.
He has worked day after day to bring the swiftvets story out, totally
supportive.
I do not think it is necessary to bash him as you did. He has a partner
on the show who is entitled to say his opinion and Sean is aware of
that. The fact is, Mr. O'Neill looks better when faced with a antaganistic
interviewer, that is when his real stength and honesty come through.
Tossing criticisms at Sean is not right, give him a chance. He deserves
it more than any other talk show host.

The simple truth is that John F-ing Kerry doesn't address anything that he doesn't want to. Hannity has a valid point about a presidential candiate admitting that he committed atrocities. How would Kerry ever be able to square that with the voters? Give Hannity credit for knowing what gets the public's interest, after he has a national show based on his abiliities, and nobody her does.
You guys are missing a bet by dissing the only people that are airing the Swiftees story to any degree at all. I don't really think that Hannity is out to impress anyone here, nor is he worried about losing anyone in particular's respect.
This is supposed to be a site for the support of the Swiftees. John F-ing Kerry is the misssion, not Sean Hannity. |
I certainly appreciate Hannity bringing O'neill on the show as much as he has, but it is, after all, O'neill that I want to hear. I am not dissing him so much as I'm offering constructive criticism so as to get the most out of the time available.
As for as the attrocities business, Hannity has beat it to death and as far as I can tell he's the only one talking about it. No one is going to tuch it, probably because he made it up or at least embellished it.
I'd like him to spend some time pointing out the calculating nature of Kerry. How he as hidden motives in everything he does. The whole reason he went to Viet Nam, his fantasies about combat that never happened, his search for medals to bolster his ambitions. Kerry's charactor is not being adaquately exposed.
There is plenty of red meat here. It needs to be reported. |

I think there is a subtle genius to having Colmes there. First, he just might actually attract liberals to watch, and for once in their life they might hear the conservative point of view. When I first listened to Rush Limbaugh, I tuned in as a liberal because that was a fun sporting thing to do for liberals: listen to the guy rant and laugh at him. Trouble is, he started making too much sense to me, and I did a Zell mambo into Dittoland.
Second, Colmes looks so much like a horse (you pick which end) and is so computer-programmed with the DNC talking points that he comes off as a cartoon. He's the strawman that Hannity so repeatedly smacks down, I wonder how Colmes can stand the continued humiliation. Makes me think it's almost an act.
But if Hannity had the whole show, maybe there wouldn't be so much shouting and talking over each other. I really hate the shouting shows, and so I can take Hannity & Colmes only about once a week. God bless John O'Neill for putting up with what he does to get the Swiftie message out, a message that Kerry has tried in vain to stifle and that Mara Alliason said on Fox News today, as if on cue, "has all been disproven." I was glad to see Brit jump all over her on that continuing Dem whopper. |

I could not agree more. Having Colmes on there legitimizes the interview.
Both sides are allowed to ask any questions and that is as it should be. Colmes didn't look like his heart was in it though. I really don't think he wanted to go after John very hard. He would alienate veterans and their families that are liberal if he appeared to attack his character. He really just had to stay with the issues. |

I believe that he and the other liberal talking heads are getting real worried that the swiftboat vets are going to bring Kerry down real soon and they don't know what to do. Every time Mr. O'Neil gets on these shows he is always cool and calm no matter how these guys act, and frankly they can't deal with someone like that. |
For a poor attempt at an analogy, all these guys boarded Kerry's boat a long time ago and are too far from shore (reason) to disembark, so when Kerry's boat sinks (thanks to the Swiftees and others who see him for who he is), they sink with it because no one bothered to put life jackets onboard! lol 
Go Swiftees Go!

O'Neill did a great job tonight. 
What I wish Hannity would say is this....
The next time a DNC opperative say's, "I know Bush received an Honarable Discharge", I want to see Hannity cut them off and ask...
"Yes, Pres Bush did get an Honorable Discharge, what was Kerry's Original Discharge? Why did he have to wait till the Clinton Administraion to get an Honorable Discharge?"
Not one member from the MSM has addressed this. |

Navy 3,
You are such a pro at keeping things on the straight and narrow around here.
Thanks for giving us a little taste of emotion once every blue moon. You deserve it, and we appreciate it.
Everyone supporting this cause is so proud of this incredibly patriotic effort, so proud just to be affiliated with people of such character, so proud to help vindicate every veteran who served in Vietnam and to help preserve liberty for future generations of Americans.
For those of us who never served, it is especially fulfilling to help in some minor way.
Thanks.
Now, let's finish this mission in style. |

Sean is a true American. He is fighting to protect America and what America stands for. Thank God that the swiftees have Sean on their side.

Man you just cannot help but be totally impressed buy John O'Neill. There is no better definition of self-control and discipline than watching this man under fire. The contrast between Mr. O’Neill and John Kerry is like night and day. To watch him in an interview like this is literally like witnessing the war between the forces of darkness and the forces of light. And the same goes for all of the Swift boat Veterans for Truth. I’m both proud and humbled to be associated with you all.
Mark

I've never heard of this...was it in UFC? If so, I dont remember reading it.
Excuse me if I'm ignorant, but what are you referring to about Kerry's discharge?

My thoughts, exactly - these shows are soooo tightly formatted.
Far from dissing him, I love Sean Hannity and listen to his radio show almost every day.
He is able to spend more time with the guest and allow the guest time to get his/her story out on the radio show.
It would have been nice for John O'Neill to have been able to enlarge upon, "That's a complete lie, Alan." To be able to prove WHY it's a lie - he is more than capable of doing this succinctly and clearly given the opportunity.

Mascari,
go here and there is a lot of discussion about Kerry's Honorable Discharge under the Clinton Administration.
http://www2.swiftvets.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8245
We need his records released to know what kind of discharge he received when he left the Reserves. |

hleone,
A blue moon? wow, I've gotta go look! (just kidding)
John was just wonderful! I just don't know how he stays so calm... I'd have had colmes by the necktie..... Maybe the new ad will be with Steve Pitkin... being 'pressured' to lie....
