Hannity for President?

By Matt Corley on Sep 11th, 2007 at 3:03 pm

Hannity for President?

At Sean Hannity’s Freedom Concert in New Jersey tonight, which Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-CT) will be attending, the headliners are country duo Montgomery Gentry. Eddie Montgomery, one half of the band, is a big Hannity fan. So big, that he thinks the Fox News talker should seek higher office:

eddie1.jpg“Sean makes sense to me.” [...]

But Montgomery, for one, wouldn’t mind seeing Hannity try a different career path.

“I could see him running for president,” says Montgomery. “I think he’s that smart.”

Hannity has not made any presidential aspirations known, but he is supporting Rudy Giuliani.

    Please run Sean. Please get in front of the american people and show us your platform. This would be great entertainment.


  2. r says:

    I think it’s :Lieberman (ID-CT)


  3. dumb and dumber says:

    that would be perfect. maybe as giuliani’s running mate!


  4. The Dude says:

    Yes, but what about the fact that folks that claim to know Hannity all say that he’s playing a character and doesn’t believe half the crap he says?


  5. Grand Moff Texan says:

    I once had a student refer to Hannity as “a political philosopher.” I laughed in his face before I could stop myself. It was just so ridiculous.

    He looked at me like I’d just stepped on his puppy.

    I have no idea where that idiot kid is today, but every now and then I like to stop and think about what’s going on in the world and in America, and know that it is utterly crushing his little ego. Simple pleasures.

    um…
    this guy’s misguided opinion of hannity
    is important enough for a TP thread because…?


  7. joe says:

    No way.

    The Universe hates me too much to ever allow something like a Sean Hannity presidential run to happen.


  8. Uncle Ho says:

    peed-on-himself thinks Hitler/Goering/Himmler is a great line-up too.


  9. troqua says:

    What a scary thought.

    By the way, congratulations are in order for Keith Olbermann kicking O’Reilly’s ass in the prime time slot on Friday night.

    And Hannity still won’t go one on one with Ed Schultz. bawk bawk.


  10. Countrysingersaremuchsmarterthanprogressives says:

    This proves how smart country singers are for wanting to have Hannity as president. Can the progtarded vermin here even imagine how excellent the US will be if someone like Hannity were the CIC? Of course not, because the progressive lowlives constantly avoid thinking what the US would be like if someone pro-America would be in charge, and it doesn’t get much more pro-America than Hannity. If Hannity were in charge, it’d be like an oasis in the US because: illegal immigration would be curtailed instantly; a wall on the Mexican border would be built; employers would be criminally penalized to the hilt for hiring illegals; military size would grow; flat tax would be introduced; emphasis would be put on families; gay marriage could potentially be outlawed in a constitutional ban/amendment; waterboarding (not torture) would be used to prevent future attacks on Americans! I’d love to see how progtards would be distressed to live in such a US.


  11. Shayne says:

    Brilliant Mr. P, Toby Keith had to start his own record company because his previous company wasn’t to thrilled with his mouth hurting his sales. Montogromer Gentry can be the next to shoot themselve in the foot. The Dixie Chicks on the other hand won 5 Grammies including best song for “I’m Not Ready to Make Nice”, an homage to you fascist that tried to kick them out of the business and best album with that song on it. You really have your finger on the pulse of America, don’t you.

    You’re confusing pro-fascism with pro-American. But then again, you stay confused.

    You sound like a wonderful educator.


  14. Snidely Whiplash says:

    Hannity is about as smart as George W. Bush. In other words, he’s not smart.


  15. Shayne says:

    funny how the upscale frat boy can write the handbook on being an american despite never serving in the military.

    Ah yes, Montgomery Gentry.

    http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/gentry%20fined%20for%20illegal%20bear%20slay_1023548

    GENTRY FINED FOR ILLEGAL BEAR SLAY

    Country singer TROY LEE GENTRY has been sentenced to three years probation and fined $15,000 (GBP7,692) after being convicted of illegally killing a black bear in Minnesota. The MY TOWN hitmaker, half of duo MONTGOMERY GENTRY, falsely registered his shooting of a captive bear as a wild kill in October 2004. Gentry shot the bear with a bow and arrow on a Minnesota estate after the owner LEE MARVIN GREENLY sold the creature for $4,650 (GBP2,384) and organised the hunt. In November (06), Gentry struck a plea deal, handing over the bear’s remains and the bow used after pleading guilty to a misdemeanour charge. Under his sentencing, Gentry has been banned from hunting in the state for five years.

    Whattatoughguy!

  19. secularprogressiveboy says:

    Hannity will run, and he will pick Colonel Ollie “Iran-Contra made me a rich man” North to be his running mate.


  20. buzzbomb says:

    OK bumpkin. Enjoy your simpleton world view. This is like the morons after Iran/Contra shouting Ollie for Pres.

    FREEDUMB CONCERT! Modern country music sucks!!! Even the Dixie Chicks, they don’t impress me one bit. You want to hear some real political music try Anti-Flag or Leftover Crack.


  21. tarazan says:

    That says a lot about where America is heading by nominating or electing a guy like Hannity as a president.
    What next? M. Savage & Ann Coulter !!

    Ummm… before you offer to fellate the country singer of your choice as an act of devotion, take a gander at the bear bust article above. We’re talkin’ some serioulsy sick puppies here, homeboy.

    Yeah… shooting caged animals = bravery!


  27. OxyCon says:

    All Hannity does is spew hate speech. He doesn’t offer any wisdom, policy or solutions. He just tells his trolls who to hate.


  28. The Republic of Stupidity says:

    Hmm, hmm, hmm America hates Libtards!

    Comment by Mr. President — September 11, 2007 @ 3:28 pm

    How about an exact defintion of “libtards”, sonny? Otherwise, yer jes’ talkin’ incoherent… umm… nevermind, I just realized who I was addressing this comment to.


  29. Shayne says:

    Oh look, Mr. P namejacked me 4 times in 33 comments. You’re so smart P how do you think up so much funny stuff? Oh I know, you don’t work or go to school anymore so you have nothing but time. Sign up, there’s a recruiting office down the block. Pansy.

  35. Shayne says:

    Sure Pee your side doesn’t have a leg to stand on so you just make bullshit up. What’s the matter your fascist friends aren’t spending all the time with you they promised.


  36. Snidely Whiplash says:

    Those are sure some crappy lyrics, Mr. P.

    Looks like your boys can’t write very well. Should have gone for an education instead of driving around in the pickup all day.

    Bwaaahahahaha!!


  37. Pat says:

    Sean Hannity is so presidential he didn’t even pretend to graduate from college or serve in the military.


  38. dim wit says:

    Where is the real Mr. P?
    I smell a namejacking

    hannity running for president would be like hitting the lottery. hannity would be absolutely slaughtered.


  39. Mr. President's Tube Sock says:

    Hey Shayne, look out! Mr. Pee’s got a whole lot more whoop-ass comin’ your way! He’s got all sorts of funny lyrics that poke fun at “Libtards” and “Leftards” and he’s all set to post them under your name.

    And there’s nothing you can do it about, he says.

    Uh– hold on a sec — that Garnier Nutrisse commercial just came on TV. Mr. Pee’s gotta go take care of bidniss, if you know what I mean…

    No! Not me, Mr. Pee!!! You used me last night! Try the LEFT tube sock this time!

    Eww…. gross.


  40. Pat says:

    I forgot to mention, Sean Hannity has an Honorary Degree from Liberty University (no kidding, awarded in 2005).


  41. Clemm says:

    Google:
    “Hannity,concert scams/rip-offs”, Read especially the ones from Daily Kos!
    Then go to onepeoplesproject.com/index.php and read all 29 pages from the Freedom Alliance/Wounded Veterans Tax Form 990 for 2006,!
    They had over $3,000,000 in cash on hand at the end of 2006, but only spent $397,900 on Wounded Veterans, and College Scholarships for the entire year!
    Hannity he’s a Great American,my arse!!

    or in jail…

    TODAY’S FACT:
    Hannity is a closet bone smuggler.


  47. Shayne says:

    Mr. President, that’s not a “rope”, now stuff those intestines back up your rectum. And take a break from anymore sexual activity for a week.


  48. Mr. President's Tube Sock says:

    When Mr. Pee says he’s “off to skip a rope” he ain’t kiddin’.

    When his mom’s not home, he even dons a little sundress and sings in a high, girly voice.

    Mr. Pee makes one butt-ugly little girl, if you ask me.

Deal with it. And take it like a real man. Not a “man” who clears brush off his ranch. I mean do you even know anyone who clears brush? As though ANY man of importance gets up in the morning and says “I dun gotta clear me some brush, he he”. And you fall for this sh!t.

    YOU are not “America”. YOU may hate us, but “America” does not. “America” hates the lying moron YOU put in the White House.

    Oh Peeturd, you cute little name jacker. I have healthcare as do all my employees. You’re confusing me with your mother again. And gates at a trailer park do not a gated community make, thus you are not one of the haves you are a have not, when you realize that you will realize that the Rethugs have been jacking you around. Of course the fact that you can’t find a job should give you a clue, but apparently not.

  59. missmolly says:

    OOOOOOOOOOOOOO—KAY…

    When I read that Montgomery thinks that Hannity is smart, I was thinking “well, maybe he’s smarter than some of the pack — like Mr. 9/11 himself”. Then I read that Hannity supports Giuliani. Sorry, Sean. And this doesn’t say much for Montgomery, either.

    Hannity helped me overcome my gag reflex.


  64. Mr. President's Tube Sock says:

    Truth be told, Mr. Pee doesn’t really draw the line at “has a pulse”. I’ve seen him mount his little sister’s My Little Pony. And then of course, there’s the biohazard he leaves on all of us tube socks…


  65. Mr. President says:

    I would drive 900 miles, non-stop, wearing a diaper, just to see Hannity, and the rest of those country f*cks.


  66. lefty says:

    Hey, TP — can you clean up some of the troll droppings? Thanks!

    Hannity doesn’t have an intellectual level does he? Or is the bottom a level?

    Would you or anyone you know have any interest in such cheese? It’s possible that a few may have but then thought better of it and vowed themselves to silence. Sort of like that Flock of Seagulls deal I stumbled into somehow.


  97. Shayne says:

    If there’s any changes, it won’t for my benefit — it will be to GET RID of me. I think I’m part of something good, yet TP wants nothing to do with me because my crazy rants make them look bad.

    Thanks, Shayne. I figured as much.


  100. bg says:

    I’ve seen Montgomery Gentry on TV a few times. The only thing that I noticed – other than a lack of any musical integrity – was that Montgomery dresses in “pant suits” like Maude and twirls his mic stand like a baton. Other than that they seemed like real tough guys.


  101. Shayne says:

    Apparently he namejacks me so much trollbuster that when I get here I have to notify the admin. that it’s me or they delete my posts too.


  102. Shayne says:

    bg, I’ve noticed that too. I think Montgomery twirls his mike stand because unlike most country singers, he can’t play the guitar. And the Maude dress is to cover his fat ass. No wonder Mr. P can relate. He were’s his mommies house dresses because he can’t find jeans that fit anymore. The Sears fat kids jeans are too short and the grownup jeans are too long. Poor bastard.


  103. Mr. President says:

    Hmm, hmm, hmm America hates prog/dem/libtards


  104. Josh says:

    Where do people like you come from Mr. President?

    Are you born with retarded comprehension, or do you grow that way?

    I bet this makes perfect sense to you:
    Spout America, American, FREEDOM! FREEDOM! HONOR! SOLDIERS!, then when someone issues a differing opinion, LOVE MY COUNTRY, LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT! What happened to the other Americans’ freedom of expression/opinion? Godd*mn you people are stupid.

    Can’t handle the process of logical thinking huh? I’d tear my hair out, if the 2006 elections hadn’t occurred. Luckily, the majority are rational people. How stupid are you? “libtard” stupid…


  105. daveinboca says:

    Hannity has more brains in the cuticle of his pinkie than most of the PhD’s and other poseurs and impostors on this thread.

    He thinks for himself and comes to his own conclusions, unlike you followers of the Pied Piper of Hamelin.


  106. trollbuster says:

    Josh, have a little patience with Mr. Pee. He’s a little… slower than the rest of us. Not sure why — that’s for doctors to determine so that his parents will know whom they can sue.

    For now, he’s safe here, playing with his keyboard, sucking on his juice box, occassionally soiling his tube socks…


  107. Mr. President's Tube Sock says:

    OCCASIONALLY soiling his tube socks?!??
