Cheap Shot at Pelosi's Husband

"I've never met Pelosi's husband but I want to give the guy a medal." - Roger Hedgecock at CPAC while talking about why the Fairness Doctrine is bad.

I'm guessing it's this kind of talk that makes liberals so rabid about shutting down conservative radio. Hedgecock is free to say it of course, but I don't think that's exactly helping the cause.

Hedgecock also stole the basic idea of the American Issues Project latest ad about how to conceptualize $1 trillion in his speech. He said he had thought about it and figured a good way to visualize it is by thinking how far back Jesus existed.

Anyone who saw AIP's latest ad, or heard Minority Leader Mitch McConnell say this on the Senate floor knows Hedgecock didn't come up with this himself.

Moving on..
