Chickenhawk and radio talk show host Mark Levin visited the Hannity show last night to whip the Fox News troops into a fightin’ frenzy – without the slightest indication he'd be putting his own well-paid fanny on the line any time soon.
Sean Hannity insisted he had roused Levin “out of his bunker.” But maybe Hannity - a fellow chickenhawk (and waterboard welsher) - thinks a talk radio studio is the same thing as a bunker.
In the first of what he has promised will be many “regular” visits, Levin commented on President Obama’s State of the Union address “Castro-like speech” and worked himself into a lather of hate mongering that must have been music to the ears of any Glenn Beck fan.
For him, America is a problem. The free-enterprise system is a problem. The American people are a problem. He treats us like we’re France.
Hannity, predictably, ate it up. He gushed, “In your book… you actually said this is a post-Constitutional America… What does that mean for the country?”
Armchair General Levin didn’t need any further prodding to lay some more of his hatriotism on us. “Big deal, he won an election,” Mr. I-Love-The-Constitution said. “I’m sick and tired of him and his party and his sycophants constantly promoting ideas that will attack it (the Constitution).”
After even more of Levin’s high-pitched hostility, Hannity asked for his “best strategy” and “what advice do you have for the Republicans? How do they battle this guy?”
Here’s where Armchair General Levin issued his marching orders. And funny, they sounded a lot like the rhetoric we've heard all during the last four years
I’ll tell you how. Start acting like men. And women. Start toughening up. Start drawing lines and mean it. Just say no, as Nancy Reagan used to say. But just say no to Obama… We have a problem on our hands. …So sometimes you’ve got to make some tough decisions. If it requires shutting down the government a few days, you shut it down. Hell, we shut down the government every weekend! …Well, extend their weekend to Thursday or Friday!
…Most of all, speak out. Tell the American people what you see! Tell the American people what this administration is! Tell them what he’s doing to this country!
…This president has unleashed so many attacks on our system, on our society and it’s obviously quite intentional. That’s what he means by "fundamentally transforming America."
…What we do about it is we dig in and we fight him every step of the way. Whatever he wants, he doesn’t get. When he violates the separation of powers doctrine and starts legislating by fiat, we go into court. If we lose in court, we take him to court on another matter. We have got to use the political brass knuckles. We have to slow him down because this man’s in a hurry, he doesn’t like the Constitutional system, he doesn’t like separation of powers, he doesn’t like checks and balances, so we have to do everything we can politically, legally, to slow him down.
And I have every reason to believe that Levin will sacrifice himself for the good of the country just as much as he has in the past.
