Hannity does it again
How extreme do the right wing kooks like Hannity and Coulter have to get before someone calls a halt to their garbage? Hannity has been spewing his diatribe for years and his hypocracy seems to be getting worse. Coulter and Hannity would make a pair. Of what I have no idea.
However, after seeing about two minutes of his H&C program last evening when there was a video of a couple of youths punching another kid to such an extent that he was hospitalized with a crushed jaw and black eye Hannity declared, after it was discovered that it was a Iranian kid that received the beating that he did not "agree with hate crime laws, per se". Hannity, WHAT THE F ARE YOU FOR??? They were taunting this kid for years and disparaging his ethnicity. It was a HATE CRIME and HATE CRIME LAWS are justified.
This guy really gets to me.Even when it is a 30 second clip on Crooks and Liars the guy shows himself to be utterly irrelevant yet he has this credibility. How is that? He is this great defender of anything WASP. Then claims his Irish side ( puke) and issues these words on a regular basis when he is talking about some criticism of the admin " it is beyond the pale". I wonder if anyone asked what that actually means , would Hannity (being faux Irish) know? I doubt he would or O'Reilly for that matter.

2. We just need to pity him
As we do those guys that drive Humvees. Both are so filled with self-loathing that they have created prisons where their souls should be.

The best we can hope for in this life is to leave the earth and the people on it a bit better than we found them. Or, at least take the oath that doctors do: To do no harm.

Hannity and his like speak to the dark that is in each of us, a dark that we should be ever vigilant to repress. Hannity and Coulter and Rove and Cheney, etc. give us license to embrace the dark side.

If that isn't evil in its truest form, then I don't know what is!

3. Hannity
is a sad case. Does he know his real political position? I often wonder about people that I know that one minute call compassion "liberal" like a dastardly tasting word and then use "Compassionate Conservative" like a badge of honor. I have asked many of them what it means to be liberal and what it means to be conservative.Not once have I heard an intelligent response.It is like force fed politics. One friend of mine has a son that has an engineering degree.He loves Hannity, Limbaugh (has facts to back up claims,lol) and Coulter because they are good and amusing. WHAT? Anyway, when I asked this kid about his opinion of liberalism his reply was, Liberals are socialists and socialists hate freedom". Engineering must have been a cinch for this BIG BRAIN.

4. I have a freep friend who claimed that Hannity is a "Middle of the road"
"common sense" kind of guy.

I challenged him to name someone to the right of Sean Hannity.....
He's still thinking

5. "News just out" - Hannity is found to be the missing link!"
Sean Hannity hasn't a clue about what is real or not. He is a product of all that is bad about this country - condensed into a not to small lantern-jawed caricature of a "righteous man".

The words Conservative and Liberal have lost ALL their meaning. To be a liberal concerning personal freedoms, freedom of information, monies for the dispossesed is one thing.... but Liberalism for Big Industry to write their own ticket and legislation for environmental concerns and laws governing their liability to fraud, safety, environmental damage is considered a conservative policy --- while Conservation of resources and human rights, environmental standards and wilderness is considered a left wing liberal agenda.

Teddy Roosevelt began the conservation movement.... he would have been long kicked out of this greedy avaricious bunch long ago had he not opted out to the Bull Moose party on his own.

7. Hannity and Runaway bride
should run away. Let him go interview her about the shop lifting and why it took an investigator to discover this and not the PD or the FOX Ah's that are so much for the minutemen "protecting us" in one breath and using our police to protect white girls with records that run away and give false evidence to police. Does color have anything to do with Fox and Hannity's reporting?

6. Hannity is a half wit
Take him seriously at your own risk. The Freepie people take him seriously and look at how they are.
