Wait.
Where are the puppies?
I want kittens, too.
martini fun time over?
Maybe this should be Hackett’s new gig. I think that he would be a SMASH on talk radio. He would be a hit on Air America.
However, I STILL want him to come back to politics.
It is daytime, after all. Martinis are for later in the day.
Yes, I think Paul would be good at talk radio, too. He’s going to have a hostile audience if he’s doing the Billy Cunningham show. I’ll have to listen. I usually do everything I can to keep from hearing even one word of that show.
Well… I’m hoping that he sticks to talking about puppies.
Yes, definitely puppies. Also, pie.

Mad Mike?!
What? Did Cunningham have to go down to the Free Clinic today and get his shots?
So far so good. I could use less of Mad Mike saying “you’re sounding angry, Paul”.
Hack seems to be teasing about an upcoming phone call… says it will be “interesting,” says the call will be “outbound.”
Can’t help but giggle when he calls you-know-who “Sherry.”
It’s funny listening to Paul talk about guns in such detail. Reminds me of some sort of Earth II G. Gordon Liddy show.
Someone better be recording this.
I love it when he does voices.
Don’t know if anyone else recorded it, but I think I got most of it. Didn’t record the breaks, so it’s in about a dozen segments, probably missing some of the “and we’re back!” stuff.
He did a great Chuck Schumer… he also did a good impression of Virginia’s Tim Kaine, who gave the Democratic SOTU response… “There must be a better way…”
yay, Renee! Thanks a lot. Post it, please!
Don’t have enough web space to post the clips, but I can send them to someone who has the ability to post them.
I see that Eric has posted some of the audio

I got a pretty good chunk of it. Haven’t gone through it yet to see what’s usable and what isn’t though. Seemed like they cut to commercial an awful lot, though.
All during the radio show Paul held a bunny with a pancake on his head. Umm . . . the bunny wore the pancake; Paul did not have the bunny on his head, although that would have been true merriment.
I’ll bet that was fun; both Paul and the bunny were very happy.
No, Paul’s loud, “angry” voice would have scared a bunny and that pancake never could have stayed on its head. Unless you nailed it there, and that wouldn’t be nearly so cute.
Oh, Renee, I agree — nailing pancakes to bunnies’ heads is neither cute nor fun. Although Editor did mention something about hammering nails up our noses . . . is that in the fun category?
(BTW, your original post about pancakes & bunnies made me laugh and still does.)
I showed up at a Jean Schmidt / Bob McEwen meeting… That was fun…

Watch Hackett’s next gig to be on FAUX news when he becomes the next Tweety Matthews.
GOP’ers must LOVE him. It will probably be a cold day in he** before you’ll hear him on Air America, unless he’s a foil for Al Franken, ala Gordon Liddy. In fact, he’s starting to sound more like Liddy every day.
Hiya Betsy. I saw you were spreading your sunshine over at Plunderbund too.
I know for a fact that Paul was on Air America at least once, in a “Fighting Dems” segment. Probably more than once.
Or are you not interested in the facts? Maybe you’re the one looking for a Republican blog…
Jim,
Tell us more. What are Mean Jean and the Ohio Restoration Project’s official Oh-2 spokesperson (and Russell Johnson and Ken Blackwell’s siamese triplet) up to?
I stopped by early and Bob McEwen wasn’t there yet. He must have been late getting in from Virginia. I stopped by again after the meeting and said hello to Jean Schmidt. Her young assistant told me to have a nice drive back to Waverly on his way out the door. He didn’t sound very sincere. Then I talked with every Republican who was willing to listen because no Democrat will ever win in Southern Ohio unless he can talk with the Republicans who outnumber Democrats almost 3 to 1. We’ve been proving this to ourselves for 32 years…
Bob McEwen had a guy standing outside the meeting on the street corner with a big anti-Schmidt sign. It was kind like one of those old-fashioned sandwich boards (except it four times the size). Actually, it was ridiculous. Actually, Bob is ridiculuous. Lawyers, Loopholes and Lobbyists… Lawyers, Loopholes and Lobbyists…
That all happened in Madeira.
The next day, the President came to town in a 32 car motorcade. (Sounds like he must have burnt alot of that foreign oil that we depend on so much…) The whole purpose of his visit was to drive to Indian Hill and raise lots of money for his cause. The Vice President flew in a few months ago for a few hours. He also held a fundraiser. It wasn’t even advertised but it did make the front page of the Cincinnati Post. He tried to raise half a million dollars in a few hours. That’s what this is all about to these people; MONEY. I am growing tired of the political establishment and powers that be in America today. They have taken advantage of too many people for way too long… It is time for them to go! I have an idea for campaign finance reform; place “REAL” limits on campaign spending.
The President’s leadership kind of reminds me of a headless horseman running down a dark and rainy path without any plan other than to go down the path because the path is there. He can’t see where he is going. He doesn’t know the way. He doesn’t have any idea what he wants to do if he ever gets there. He is lost. I’m actually starting to feel sorry for him and Jean and Bob… How can people like the politicians in Washington today have so much power to do so much good and just waste it away at the expense of millions of people? I’m beginning to realize why people don’t want to run for political office in America today. There is so much lack of responsibility and reason in our government today. We have elected a WRONG, RECKLESS, and RUBBER STAMP government. If we ran America’s healthcare system like the President runs this country, we would be in quite a mess… Actually, this country is in quite a mess.
Healthcare, the Economy and the War… That is what this election is all about to me. These 3 issues touch every single family that lives in Southern Ohio.
If we don’t elect the right candidate in this primary, the ultimate victims will be the following people:
Families who earn less than $100,000 a year. I support a middle class tax cut for those families as well as expanding the existing $1,000 child tax credit from age 17 to age 18 (and age 24 for students) for working families.
100 million Americans who need the Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security System. Medicare is going broke faster than you can count. The Medicare Prescription Drug Program took 7 years off the life of Medicare. I have a plan to expand the Medicare program from age 65 to age 55 without raising taxes. This will help millions of small business provide health insurance for the older employees in their workforce at a price that is cheaper than the commercial health insurance options that they have right now. There was a provision in the President’s recent budget bill to privatize Social Security. These people are sneaks. You cannot trust them. We need a breath of fressh air in Southern Ohio…
8 million children who do not have health insurance. I have a plan to provide healthcare coverage for all of these children. this will be my passion if I am elected to the US House of Representatives.
Thousands of families who have either lost a loved one in the war or who love somebody that has been forever injured by the violence. Many of these soldiers were born and raised in Southern Ohio. Jack Murtha gave us a plan. It wasn’t perfect but it was a starting point. But the Democratic AND Republican politicians have failed to take advantage of another military expert opinion. The President had pre-war intelligence in his hands that described what this war would turn into… But in his haste, with his tunnel vision, and while wearing his rose colored glasses, he ignored the military experts in order to pursue his own personal agenda. Meanwhile today, a terrorist can walk acrss (or underneath) the Mexican border with drugs in his hands right into the good ole US of A. How many more people have to die before we realize that this whole thing isn’t working? How many more soldiers from Southern Ohio will have there lives and the lives of their families destroyed?
Somebody in Southern Ohio please wake up and realize that you have a person who is willing to work for you to forever make this country better. Forget about that political circus out there and focus on what’s important in your lives…

Hello
I listened to the audio. Hackett is REALLY good at this gig. He tells it like it is and is self-deprecating. He could be the next Rhandi Rhodes or Ed Schultz.
I bet he got very high viewership.
Just makes me want to vote for him…….ok not going there.
My husband and I listened for a little while on the way to something yesterday, and he had my husband laughing out loud while I was doing the “Oh, no, Paul” thing.
