Hannity & Colmes diss Ted, Don Young gets a free ride

Cape Wind prexy Jim Gordon blew them away on FOX-TV's  Hannity and Colmes last light.

The brash Fox duo called Senator Kennedy and his nephew hypocrites (see video of it here), but couldn't get Jim Gordon to criticise either. Hannity & Colmes were highly critical of both Kennedys. The video and text at available in the link below.

The worse Jim Gordon would say about the Kennedys was, "my disappointment is that the senator established out a position before the environmental reviews came in, before the massachusetts energy facility board approved our project. sean: isn't it about their view? isn't it about how it affects them? it's ok for them to lecture us but when it comes to their life they don't want to live up to their standard."

He added about Senator Kennedy and Congressman Delahunt, "they are politicians they have to look at the fact that in Massachusetts in a new poll, six to one voters in massachusetts support it."

See the program and a video of it here.

He reported $313,749 worth of corporate jet travel.   Next came President Bush, at $149,667; followed by Rep. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., $125,187; Rep. Michael G. Oxley, R-Ohio, $108,700; Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., $102,000; Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska, $83,000; and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., $69,000...
