Sean Hannity recently referred to a group of Tea Party activists as "Tim McVeigh wannabes."
I've seen a few on DU claim Hannity was being sarcastic because Tea Party activists are being
referred by the left as "Teahadists." If indeed it was an inside joke among the right wing,
why didn't the crowd laugh at such an absurd comparison, and instead applauded with approval?

4. Wow! That really brings the horror of the incitement to violence

of Fox News. Hannity should apologize for his use of that analogy.

I really wonder whose agenda Fox News is pursuing. The second largest investor is Saudi Arabian, and Rupert Murdoch enjoys huge business favors from the Chinese government. Someone in a better position than I to research Fox News should look into this. I cannot believe that anyone would speak with admiration of people who emulate people who do terrorist acts in our own dear country.

Does Hannity hate America? Does Fox News hate America? What other explanation is there for this kind of cheery talk about "Tim McVeigh wannabes"? Does Hannity want to see babies die?

7. It's not just Hannity.

The people in the room cheered at being compared to a terrorist. They compare liberals to the attackers of 9/11 all the time - people that they want to deny basic human rights and due process. But the difference is that he was white, Christian, and conservative. What he did was okay and even praiseworthy. They totally agree with his ideas and aren't opposed to his methods if it suits their ends. Violence is a legitimate political device to them. This is very, very dangerous.

10. And Fox is partly if not pretty greatly financed by foreign

parties with close ties to foreign governments. Who knows what Fox gets from the Chinese government in return for handling certain of their news communications? I ask that rhetorically. I doubt that information is available. Congress needs to investigate the influence of foreign governments on ostensibly American news media.

Nothing wrong with foreign governments or foreign interests broadcasting their points of view on our air waves, but foreign-influenced and foreign-owned news media including Al Jazeera and Russian TV but especially any news media receiving funding from a Saudi prince (presumably close to the Saudi government) or the Chinese government even if for services rendered in that foreign company, should identify themselves clearly as controlled and financially dependent on foreign interests and disclose their ties to foreign countries. Virtually all of our TV shows are syndicated for foreign distribution. Again, nothing wrong with that. But Americans should be told that what they are being shown is produced not only for American viewers but also for viewers in other countries.

Full and frequent disclosure should be required. I seriously doubt that Thom Hartmann's show is funded by any foreign money. Hannity's appears to be whether he admits it or not.

5. Thanks everyone

I appreciate the kind words.

[Bette Noir]

6. Powerful stuff. Cut it to 30 seconds and run it on TV.

[jberryhill]

8. Compelling

Wow.

[Vermontgrown]

9. Fox news agenda is obvious.

They want to ruin America. Repukes don't ever fix anything. They can't. They don't know how. They're too stupid. All they can do is steal your hard earned money, and give it to their rich friends. Fox will help their repuke friends with the marketing, and they may throw in a whole bunch of money.

11. It's time to expose them

I'm focusing on the media now and plan to expose their concerted effort to whip the tea partiers into a frenzy. This has been very well orchestrated and it's a shame the tea partiers are confused as to who their true enemy is. Perhaps exposing the media manipulation will help them realize what stooges they've been.

Did a video last week exposing CNN's latest hire, Erick Erickson. He runs Redstate.com and caters to the tea partiers. CNN also has a special bus that's been following the Tea Party Express and has a special page dedicated to the tea party movement. It's time to expose all of those participating in the deception.

12. Why didn't MSM pick up on this language??????? had a leftie said it they would

be hung out to dry by the press and everyone else.

13. I surely hope Hannity ends up in prison.....

...with his phony bullshit. Who the fuck in their right mind wants to be a goddamned murderer? And in particular, a murderer of children? What the fuck does killing innocent babies have to do with freedom and liberty asshole?!?!
