Hannity's Getting Flustered

[Jack_Dawson]

Hannity just had a run of 2 or 3 "liberal" callers who ran intellectual circles around him. At first he feigned having an intelligent conversation, but once it dawned on him these callers were actually smarter than him, he switched into "dismissive" mode. You know...talking over them, putting them on mute while he warns his listeners that "this is what you get when you try and engage a liberal in an intelligent conversation."

Now I remember why I can only handle these fuckwits in doses.

1. Yep..

I noticed that...

Another funny thing are the stupid polls on his website. He thinks we "freeped" the one from yesterday.

Here is what he put up today, already going the wrong way for the dipshit....

How would you rate the job of the President’s Homeland Security since 9-11?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Poor – I don't feel safe at all.
55%

Ok – I feel somewhat safer.
14%

Excellent – I feel safe.
31%

2. Yep..they don't like it when you manage to slip in a point...

before they can drown you out, talking over you. Rush is the same way. I'm looking forward to my local station picking up insHannity's show soon. The more I listen, the more formulated and completely UN spontaneous they seem.

How do I find the poll?

5. Don't Listen

I stopped listening to this jerk back in December 2000 when he kept saying "The numbers are wrong. I just know that Bush will win the popular vote by 500,000." This guy has no credibility at all.

8. I like the, "once it dawned on him the callers were smarter",...

LOL, that should have been virtually instantenously! My cat is smarter than Hannity!

9. what were the arguments about?

I woulda loved to see Hannity get his ass handed to him.

11. Hannity's double standard on Israel,

Hannity's lapdog support of Chimpy,

and

Bush's refusal to unseal 9/11 docs. He basically had no answer for anything they challenged him on. It was great.

10. Same as it ever was

Same kind of tactic O'Reilly does. That man needs to get knocked off his high horse.

12. Hannity asked a poor question in his poll.

But it actually exposes a chink in Bush's armor, so it's interesting. In order to get elected, Bush must promote two conflicting themes:

1. widespread fear of the terrorist boogeyman

2. the idea that he's keeping the public safe from terrorists

He has to both terrorize and comfort the public at the same time. He's actually walking a bit of a tightrope by saying, "you're safer with me". He's trying to do both.

Hannity's poll suggests he's failing at it.

13. Has anyone noticed...

...that when Hannity gets a liberal caller that runs intellectual circles around him, he won't let them get another word in and will resort to a constant stream of "shut up"s?

And that whenever his online polls don't go his way, he blames the results on "liberals" coming to his website and freeping his polls?

He's mentally on his last leg. I can sense it. Watch him crack. Soon.
