Oh, go interview Trump again.

No intelligent person cares about your opinion.

The headline should read “CNN Debate Moderator and Right Wing Radio Host Hugh Hewitt Compares Hillary Clinton’s Emails To O.J. Simpson Verdict”

This lightweight loser with his “gotcha” analysis.

dyrnych · September 8, 2015, 4:46pm

Well, with O.J. there was this thing called evidence of guilt. With Hillary, there’s nothing that even remotely resembles that. It’s just a ridiculous exercise in “this can be spun negatively, therefore it’s illegal!” There is zero evidence that Hillary engaged in any wrongdoing, and concluding guilt based on partisan affiliation is the definition of hackery.

Well, also there was an actual law on the books against killing people. In Hillary’s case, there is no law, nor can they even point to what they consider illegal. Its just “Oh, she is definitely guilty”…of something.

In the republican mindset, merely being a Democrat is criminal behavior.

Some of my more conservative acquaintances (no longer friends sadly) wonder why I scoff at the Conservative radio idiots. Here’s the evidence.

This guy is a sleazy political operator on par with Rush Limbaugh or Lee Atwater and for some reason he’s included on the Sunday show panels as an objective observer.

Sunday on Meet the Press he was giving his opinion and included “When you have a senior aide pleading the fifth it’s an indication that it’s a bad week…” Spot the lie there? And Chuck Todd just nodded along.

Yo, H-Dog, W.T.F.?

jimellis · September 8, 2015, 5:09pm

Don’t these guys realize that by claiming Hillary will drop out, he is actually improving her appeal with the party’s base? Every time I read what some GOP talking head says about HRC, I want to give more to her campaign. This Hugh Nitwitt guy fell a bit short with his comment. By comparing Clinton to O.J., I expected to hear him say that O.J. only murdered 2 people. HRC killed 4 people. 5 if you include Vince Foster…

rssrai · September 8, 2015, 5:11pm

So now Hillary is O.J. Simpson. Let’s see Hillary has been compared to Nixon, Hitler, and now O.J. Simpson. I suppose to nut job RW media pundits like Hugh Hewitt she is a blend of every evil person in the world.

mrcomments · September 8, 2015, 5:17pm

“Verdict”? She has not even been charged with anything, how in hell could there be a “verdict”.

Also, there was overwhelming evidence of a crime with OJ. There is currently ZERO evidence of a crime here.

inversion · September 8, 2015, 5:19pm

I think her candidacy is doomed.

Hedge

I think Joe Biden, as Rupert Murdoch tweeted out last night, is going to get in because Mrs. Clinton has no excuse.

Another hedge

I believe it’s a violation of law and I believe it will come out.

Third hedge/what will come out? That Hillary is a big Rusev fan.

And I don’t know that O.J. murdered people, but I’m absolutely certain that, you know - I’d believe he did

Yes or no. Remember a no guilty verdict is officially on the books.

but there was no verdict that he did.

Its called ‘no guilty’. Come on Hugh, you can say it.

You don’t need a verdict to come to a conclusion about someone’s guilt.

I wonder how he feels about Petraeus…curiosity

jaligard · September 8, 2015, 5:22pm

I don’t know that Hugh Hewitt is an asshat, but I’m absolutely certain that, you know - I’d believe he is but no certificate has been awarded. You don’t need a verdict to come to a conclusion about someone’s asshattery.

dickweed · September 8, 2015, 5:24pm

I knew this case reminded me of something and I was kind of leaning toward Manson or Hitler but he nailed it in the fucking head. This Hillary case reminds me in every detail of the OJ case…jebus christ what a fucking moron…benghazi!

And I don’t know that Hugh Hewitt screws goats and pigs and maybe even little boys, but I’m absolutely certain that, you know - I’d believe he does but there was no verdict that he did. You don’t need a verdict to come to a conclusion about someone’s guilt.

khaaannn · September 8, 2015, 5:45pm

Desperate to “get Joe Biden in” since they (wrongly) think they can easily defeat him, they will go to ANY ridiculous lengths (nice racist angle their too BTW tying OJ to Hillary) and outrage (OUTRAGE I TELL YOU!) to stop Hillary.
They are really getting desperate now with Trump pulling the White Hood off of the party and exposing their rank racist base, and Hillary not getting upset and seemingly not injured by their fake “scandal”.
This excremental waste of skin (Hewitt) foresees a HUGE drop in his under-the-table-funding if he doesn’t produce Hillary’s scalp before the Convention. Ain’t gonna happen buddy.

marby · September 8, 2015, 5:47pm

This is exactly what troubles me. We all know that Hewitt is a ridiculous, right-wing blowhard. But the elevation in his status by appearances on Meet the Press and as a CNN debate moderator is what I strenuously object to.

ralph_vonholst · September 8, 2015, 5:50pm

“You don’t need a verdict to come to a conclusion about someone’s guilt,”

Which is why I know, I just know, you are guilty of income tax evasion, fraud, extortion and blackmail. It’s written all over your face. If you call that a face.
