GWR that last block quote clearly shows this man’s communist/dem qualites for transference. If this was a true quote about no more free press, then why is the NYT still around. Infact, if GWB had destroyed the WTC towers, why didn’t he hit Times square too. This quote clearly shows this man has never been a Republican, if he is registered as a Republican, it is due to a devious nature or social expediency. This man is probably about to get kicked out of his country club. – Lorica

……and Joe Wilson is no big fish, more like what we call Bay Shrimp aka Garbagemen of the Sea.

Here's an update...the Sun-Times published a letter from Ronca under Hunter's byline today, still trying to make the controversy go away. He's still trying to claim he's a Republican:

Let me assure you I am a lifelong Republican. I have been registered Republican since at least 1975

But as he warms to the subject, the true colors begin to bleed through:

Even though I am a long-term Republican I am not a fool. Naturally I opposed candidates like George W. Bush and Rick Santorum who have vilified plaintiffs trial lawyers.

Translation: I only back candidates who suck up to the litigation lobby...and as we know, that means mostly Democrats. In fact, the organization whose meeting he attended is basically the trial lawyers' lobby and is solidly Dem, as ST said. And here's how he closes:

This campaign against you and me is ridiculous and I think evidence of how the Republican Party works. They make an effort to pressure journalists to print what they want and avoid what the Republican Party does not like. No free thinking or free press is allowed. They smear everyone who opposes them from big fish like Joe Wilson to small fries like me.

Oh yeah, that sounds like a "staunch" Republican, doesn't it? Case closed. The "staunch" part of the story has a stench, and Hunter's upset because the bloggers uncovered her bias.

What is the definition of the word “is”. What is it with these libs?? Can’t they figure out that words do have meanings, and they can’t blame the Websters everytime they get caught in a lie. Yet they wonder why newspaper sales are down. Keep on this course ya morons, and everyone will be getting their news from Fox. – Lorica

If it were me, I’d have blamed the author of the definition of the word “staunch.”

It’s such a cool-sounding word; how could it mean something other than what I wanted it to mean?

Hunter, is just a staunch propagandist, not a journalist, and may not have a job if not for who her husband is.
