What Does Hugh Hewitt Know...

And when did he know it? --Very strange experience today. I am a couple of weeks out-of-phase in my radio listening but today I turned him on specifically to hear what he had to say about the subpoenas and in two hours heard nothing. I did hear him using his chattiness skills to keep the subject from coming up. That was more clear with his callers than his guests. Now I did miss a few minutes here-and-there so could have missed a reference, but I don't think so.

On his blog he does have a transcription of a conversation with Eastman and Chemerinski on the constitutional issues, so he must have had them on Wednesday, but today, Thursday, nothing, not a mention.

Hugh Hewitt is hiding something!

'Course, it could be a stunt. To refuse to discuss something is no big deal, but to skillfully avoid even its mention is talent. That would be the stunt, for whatever the reason. He will have to be tortured. Perhaps we can give him one more day to fess up, to come clean.

And again I'll mention that my big hope is that we'll have a big enough domestic fight to distract the Dems and the press from Iraq long enough for the surge to work. If we can somehow smother those two the military can win the war.

Oddly, the pullout efforts in this respect seem useful. It's a spectacle, it's the Democrats in view, and not the war or their sour attitude toward it. They're in a weird dance, sort of a powwow, faces contorted, throats making odd, primitive, animal-like noises. Stone Age. It is true that only Democrats can defeat the American military, but as long as they keep themselves busy stomping about a bonfire of their own creation they're not really quite so dangerous. It gives the military time. They can go about their professional business of war.
