Yesterday on Fox News, Sean Hannity and The American Prospect’s Robert Kuttner had a tense exchange about the election. As Kuttner offered advice for Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL), Hannity interrupted, saying Obama is “hiding” his associations with Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright. “Stop it. Stop it. This is — this is garbage you’re spewing,” Hannity said. Kuttner shot back, accusing Hannity of “doing RNC talking points”:
HANNITY: You spew this line, DNC talking points.
KUTTNER: I don’t spew any goddamn line. Stop insulting me or I’m walking off the set.
HANNITY: Go ahead. Go. Good-bye. Walk off. … Please. I don’t care. Go right ahead. Walk off. You said the economy is in dire straits.
KUTTNER: It is in dire straits. You want to deny that, you fool?
HANNITY: You fool, you idiot.
KUTTNER: You’re going to deny that the economy is in dire straits?
HANNITY: For the first time — sir, sir, unemployment in this country…
Watch it:
Hannity said that claiming the U.S. has seen a “dire” economy is “all based on a lie.” “We got out of the recession that Clinton and Gore gave us,” he said. In fact, job growth in the eight years before Bush came to office was significantly better than in the eight years since.
Tee hee… poor “li’l Heil Hannity… shorting out on air…
It’s starting to get to them… Bush and Bolton turning on each other, and now this…
Who’s going to pop their top next?
September 11th, 2008 at 3:50 pmWhen did Sean Hannity become a Muslim Terrorist?
September 11th, 2008 at 3:50 pmI wish more pepole (everyone) would stand up to S(hit)H(ead)’s bullying. LyingSoS.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:51 pmLet me guess Colmes sat there and didn’t say one word to help the guy Shemp was attacking.
It’s a good thing it didn’t get physical or Colmes might have had to get involved. Who else would have held Hannity’s coat for him?
September 11th, 2008 at 3:52 pmSomeone shove a rag in that bully’s mouth.
Then soak it in gasoline and put a match to it.
I am so shit full of these fcking Repugnicunts. They are the absolute polar opposite of everything that America stand for. Well, used to stand for.
Fck them.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:52 pmThe Rightwing propaganda machine has many demented cogs. Limbaugh is a shameless liar, Micheal ‘the Weinerdog’ Savage is totally insane O’falafel is just so full of himself but of them all Hannity is a complete moron. The man is just dumber than cigarette ash. I sometimes think with the Oxymoron its about the money and he would switch sides and be a liberal in a heartbeat if THEY offered more cash and that the Weinerdog is doing performance art but Hannity is just ignorant to the bone. I think he really believes all the truly stupid things he says are true.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:52 pmI so glad that at least some of the American people are snapping out of their sleepwalk of the last several years and calling out these BS reichwing a-wholes(no moderation needed here, right TP?).
At long last, some guys are growing a pair.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:56 pmIts true, unemployment is high, some 260 lending institutions have imploded, 11 banks, I think, have gone under with another 117 on the watch list. Bear Stearns was bailed out. Fannie and Freddie are basically insolvent, Lehman brothers is in trouble. Ford and Chevy are laying off workers. Starbuck closing 600 stores. Home depot closing stores. Levitz and Sharper Image filed for bankruptcy.s Linens ‘n Things going down. Foot Locker said it would close 140 stores, Ann Taylor will start to shutter 117, and the jeweler Zales will close 100.
I dont know, who, or why, anyone would pay Hannity so much money to be so uninformed.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:57 pmThe “You fool, you idiot.” part was obviously Kuttner’s voice, not o’Hannity’s.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:57 pmlisten at 3:26
Unfair and Unbalanced, Faux Noise. Spreading lies is their business.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:57 pmOnly a truly stupid human being who has made money off being a mindless wingnut parrot for equally stupid drones like the Fox “News” audience can argue with a straight face that the economy is in remotely decent shape. Sean Insanity is just the truly stupid human being for that task.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:58 pmSven, fine, and it was 100% correct.
September 11th, 2008 at 3:59 pmIt is not pretty when the reality-based world collides with the faith-based world: kind of like when matter and anti-matter meet; but, it makes good tv. Pass the popcorn…
September 11th, 2008 at 3:59 pmExcellent clip!
September 11th, 2008 at 3:59 pmGreat job KUTTNER did and managing to get info out to the Faux audience.

Because he is saying what is useful for propaganda purposes and benficial to power. Truth, facts, reality, none of these factor in, in ANY meaningful way.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:01 pmAnd that programmed blowhard even mangeged to blame Clinton and Gore???! What color is the sun is this asshat’s world?
September 11th, 2008 at 4:02 pmNow that the neocons and radical conservative Christians are looking like fools and falling apart, they’ll get seriously vicious. This is only the beginning.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:02 pm…sir, sir, unemployment in this country…
JUST HIT 6.1%, you moron.
Hopefully, he’ll join the ranks and make it 6.1000000001 soon.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:02 pmI enjoyed that. Mr. Kuttner made Seanie the Pinhead look like a fool.
Oh…well, maybe that’s not terribly hard to do, eh? ;o)
September 11th, 2008 at 4:02 pmSlanthead is still pissed the RNC didn’t use his ‘10 Principles of Cancervatism’ from his blabsite during the RNC Convention.
His favorite tactic is to shove a loaded question down a guest’s throat with a demand of ‘yes or no’, which totally eliminates any discourse on the subject at hand.

Sorry, Sven, but that was Hannity’s voice. And Hannity’s the one who bullies his way into the piece and starts insulting Kuttner, using phrases like “spewing garbage…” very funny clip, watching Hannity throw a hissy fit on his own show.
The rigthies are cracking up…
September 11th, 2008 at 4:05 pmWhat a maroon — but we already knew that. :-D
September 11th, 2008 at 4:07 pmScarey is that I hear conservatives repeat this utter garbage that all is just wonderful, and if Obama gets in it will be a socialist world. The number 6.1% is THIS ADMINISTRATION’S NUMBER AND REPUBS STILL DON’T BELIEVE IT ! Can you tell I just had a conversation with a republican ? I really will need false teeth from biting back what I really want to say.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:08 pmI can’t watch that trash, but I try to every now and then when I’m flipping through the channels. I’ve never heard SH make a valid point. He’s always interrupting the opposition as they make a valid point. If he’s talking about a quote he always takes it out of context. His arguments often resemble a three-year-old’s line of reason. People like this sht head are what’s wrong with America, and why the rest of the world thinks we’re all idiots.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:09 pmKutter did a magnificent job of keeping cool and laying out his facts. One for our side.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:09 pmHas anyone seen Zooey today?
September 11th, 2008 at 4:12 pmThe blame Clinton thing is not new. Neocons have been touting that line from the start. Yes, the market dipped at the end of the Clinton presidency, but the market is forward looking and Bush had already been elected. The market was adjusting to the downturn that the Neocon policies were certain to bring.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:13 pmHannity with the but, but, but Clinton for the state of our economy?
LOL- Sean should be more careful to not have guests who actually can articulate the facts a whole lot better than he can.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:13 pmOk I played it. Colmes In his defense was giving a fine interview and then Shemp lost his shit. Here’s the funny thing. The guy wasn’t exactly praising Obama. He was raising some valid points about the way this campaign was being run. Then for no good reason other than he’s a complete dink Hannity dropped a load. Then once Hannity started losing his argument on the economy he went to the good ol’ Conservative standby of changing the subject.
And yes Colmes never once told his buttboy Colmes to shut and let the man answer. He didn’t even say excuse me Shemp I was interviewing the man.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:13 pmHey Mr. Kutter you’ve actually got a pair. Now could you call congress and tell them where you got them.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:14 pmDang, a good producer would have set some ground rules to begin with.
Then when things got out of hand, cut to commercial. This is an embarassment for any respectable news media to air.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:15 pmBut it’s just right for Fox News.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:17 pmOn post 29. Obviously I meant his buttboy Hannity.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:19 pm“Sorry, Sven, but that was Hannity’s voice. And Hannity’s the one who bullies his way into the piece and starts insulting Kuttner, using phrases like “spewing garbage…” very funny clip, watching Hannity throw a hissy fit on his own show.”
100% Kuttner’s voice. He reinforced his previous line with (”…, you fool?”) that.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:19 pmHannity did a T.O. and threw a tantrum on TV. Is that what comes when you sign the big boy contracts with FOX News or the Dallas Cowboys?
To Terrel’s credit, he’s behaving better. Hannity give T.O a call to find out how he made the transition. I think that $100 million went to Sean’s head.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:19 pmI think Hannity feels the tide turning and Rachel Maddow breathing down his pencil neck. If he thinks beating up on an egg head is going to offset the immanent Palin implosion, he’s dumber than I thought. I smell desperation.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:20 pmGee we are getting a hurricane, must be Clinton and Gore’s fault. Read that from RNC in the next few days.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:26 pmHow can they argue with facts from their own administration ???
Huh.
I guess the massive increase in BART ridership has been my imagination.
Or the fact that each trip to the grocery store over the past year has cost more and more, that’s also my imagination.
The fact that I’ve been having trouble keeping up with my rent after being on solid ground for years – also my imagination.
And OMG the worst part – my beloved hobby of building electronic jiggers – I cannot afford it anymore. That’s my imagination too.
I wish I had a got-the-position-because-of-my-hair job too! Then maybe my imagination wouldn’t run so wild.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:31 pmPerhaps the Bushtards like Hannity can show exactly which of W’s economic policies actually EXPANDED the middle class during the past 8 years.
My bad, if they could have, they would have.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:32 pmTrac-ee; Do everyone a favor, go Cheney yourself.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:32 pmFirst, Hannity does not belong on the air. He is not professional, however he does need to be trained on how to present himself to the public once the camera is on. It’s professional to represent his network and overall treat his guest with the up most respect. This is a powerful country that we live in. It’s discrediting for the network to have this irate man to represent them, to discuss issues that relate to the United States of America. Serious issues are discussed in a violent, hostile, forceful manner. This is not a good idea at all. There is so much rage within this journalist and he must get himself together and in control.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:34 pmoh, man, that was fun! that guy completely shredded hannity!
September 11th, 2008 at 4:35 pmHannity is nothing more than a Coulteresque horn spewing nationalist socialist propaganda as if being unamerican is natural, legitimate, and the wave of the future.
Why do Fox horns hate America and the Constitution, anyway?

September 11th, 2008 at 4:36 pmKuttner did a good job,we need to see more of this kind of exchange; more Kuttner appearances on Fox shows.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:36 pmKuttner couldn’t take it being lectured on US economy by talking head Hannity.

September 11th, 2008 at 4:45 pmI love millionaires like Hannity and Limbaugh who lecture the country how well the economy is doing. I’m guessing they don’t worry too much about their mortgage or rent payment or how they’re going to feed their family.

Go phuck yourself!
September 11th, 2008 at 4:49 pmTraci_5 Please advise how Hannity can deny your administration’s numbers.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:51 pm“HANNITY EXPLODES ON AIR”….I had my hopes up for a second there. Did he talk about the “angry Left”? Lies and bluster ….it’s all they’ve got. Maybe Hannity will get to do something useful with the latter part of his life…like pick up roadside trash or clean toilets at the Bus Station….you know something befitting his natural talents…..after spreading so much $hit around it only seems fair he should do some picking up.
September 11th, 2008 at 4:52 pmHannity is a Christian man, yes.
So isn’t it “turn the other cheek” and not “go full bore into the other person’s side”?

September 11th, 2008 at 5:00 pmhe said. In fact, job growth in the eight years before Bush came to office was significantly better than in the eight years since.
Tell that to the 85,000 people who lost their jobs last month, a$$hole.

September 11th, 2008 at 5:02 pmWe have a wonderful country! And that’s exactly why everyone wants to vacation here, live here, to enjoy what it has to offer. The country needs to be refurbished to become even better for the people, and it’s imperative that the next leader works very hard to guide this country in the right direction.
Now lets discuss health care. If Great Britain can do it, we can too! They went to war with us and my god they can show our government how to run a Public Funded Health Care for the permanent residents. We are human. We get sick, we can’t function, we may get a deadly disease, we may brake a bone. Our lives are precious, we were created by god. Life should not be compared to a motor vehicle. There’s great concern and care over motor vehicle insurance, laws rule making everyone have it. If you buy the motor vehicle, it’s your responsibility to insure it. Life, it’s so different. Life was created, born and human. Taking care of a life is so precious, keeping it healthy to thrive. There should be no question to compare the value of one’s life over a dollar amount. Free Public Healtcare is taking a step in caring for the people, humanity and what’s right in keeping life alive and well.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:04 pmHannity and the like hates Clinton, Gore and everyone on the “other side” who has helped make this country into something. Then again, if you wear the GOP Burger King crown you’re God, Jesus, Frank Burns and every other fictional character they love all rolled into one.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:06 pmHannity gets away with his lying crap…..no substance what so ever……FOX Noise – 1st in distortion.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:08 pmPawn Hannity makes roughly $20 Million a year – of course the economy is great to him.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:09 pmWell, in fairness to Sean, this economy is treating him pretty well. He’s got that $100MM contract to keep him spreading the happy talk about how well the economy’s doing. He probably has a performance clause, though. McCain needs to win or it’s back to housepainting for him. He’s going to have to spin harder if he wants to convince people that the poop he’s feeding his audience is really chocolate ice cream.

Now why would the Veep need to talk to the head of the firm with the corner on oil futures and the oil company that once tampered in Iranian politics. More homework for you….

You can shove that T-square up your arse.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:24 pmWhy anyone would go on that show, knowing that Hannity is going to insult them, is beyond me.
September 11th, 2008 at 5:34 pmKuttner starts with profanity. He threatens to leave the set.
Then Hannity invites him to leave if he wants.
Then he called Hannity a fool.
Hannity then responds in kind with ‘fool’ and ‘idiot’.
And they finish the interview.
You probably wouldn’t get that impression, the way they phrased the headline.
If you meet someone and punch them in the face. People will find that appalling. But, if they find out, that other person punched you first, they might cut you some slack.

September 11th, 2008 at 5:46 pmBack up a second there, Hannity interrupts him first and repeatedly…
if someone invited you over to hear your impressions on the election you probably would get a little upset if they interupted you half way through to call those opinions garbage and call you a stooge…
Even if it is Fox News…
Han Job is a flat out lying fool! Did he say unemployment is lower than at any time in the last 4 decades?
I did some calculations recently on average unemployment rates and gdp by administration for the last 50 years after an argument (not discussion) I had with someone. I lost my cool too as Kuttner did. It is more effective to keep cool and refute the opposition such as Han Job with facts.

With a comment like: ‘Anytime.’ on a blog, Well- you’d have to be, right?
P.S. I have no intention of even pretend fighting you or challenging you… you can call it cowardly- I just think it’s silly… almost as silly as claiming our economy is going gangbusters and unemployment is at it’s lowest level in 20 years…
September 11th, 2008 at 6:07 pmHannity is an RNC tool, period. Funny that he calls Kuttner a fool and an idiot. Just looking at their educational accomplishments reveals a well-educated man (Kuttner) vs. a college drop-out (Hannity). From Wikipedia:
Robert Kuttner attended Oberlin College, the University of California, Berkeley, and the London School of Economics.
At different times throughout his career he has taught at Brandeis, Boston University, UMass, and Harvard’s Institute of Politics. He has also been a John F. Kennedy Fellow at Harvard University, a Woodrow Wilson Fellow at UC-Berkeley, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a Radcliffe Public Policy Fellow.
He holds an honorary degree from Swarthmore College.
Hannity graduated in 1980 from St. Pius X Preparatory Seminary high school, located in Uniondale, New York. Described as “an indifferent student”,[4] Hannity dropped out of New York University for financial reasons and later decided to pursue a radio career.[3] In 2005, Jerry Falwell, chancellor of Liberty University awarded him an honorary degree.[5]
September 11th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Wait till he is questioned about the $10,000,000 he said he donated to the Freedom Alliance in 2007! Hannity claims last year he raised $10,000,000 for Freedom Alliance with his 5 concerts that 60,000 attended, as found at:
September 11th, 2008 at 6:14 pmpremierspeakers.com/sean_hannity
That would me every single one of the 60,000 coughed up $166.66 to attend his “Look at me,ain’t I a great American?”! Freedom Alliance’s Tax Form 990 hasn’t been released yet this year,meaning they haven’t filed on with the IRS! No where in Freedom Alliance’s Tax Form 990’s for the years ‘03 -’06 The years of his concerts) is any mention what-so-ever of Freedom Concerts donating one single penny!
In closing, no matter what Hannity or Ollie North say, in 2006 they raised almost $9,600,000 and gave to the wounded vets and or their familes only “$397,900!” That’s it,only 4.4% of the 9.6 million raised went to the vets and their families. Read the 990’s at Guidestar.org
belac. you’re right. Hannity was obnoxious as Kuttner was having a serious conversation. That caused Kuttner to start with the profanity and then to call Hannity a fool.
Hannity would be alot more effective if he could lose the obnoxiousness. Kuttner made a mistake for letting Hannity get to him.
But, I see your point. An ugly exchange that either Hannity or Kuttner could have prevented.
Colmes, to his credit, comes off as the adult supervision. He is an underappreciated voice (especially at Fox). I wish political discourse could be more Colmes like.
September 11th, 2008 at 6:15 pmSo Hannity’s college degree was financed, in part by Rev. Sun Myung Moon! Moon funds saved Liberty University from bankruptcy.
I guess the good Rev. is allowing Hannity to be the messiah for media.

September 11th, 2008 at 6:45 pmI’d like to see somebody punch Hannity in the face. Good and bloody. If it happens, I’ll miss it until it hits YouTube. Can’t stand to watch the guy or his network

Everyone that calls me “stupid” are the ones who aren’t that bright themselves. We have different points of view, but the self proclaimed intelligent ones view my opposing view points as “stupidity”. When they run out of rational arguments or the don’t like what the other one says they start the name calling. It’s typical for liberals….as Kuttner so clearly demonstrated with Hannity.

More typical conservative stupidity. BE STUPID then whine when called on it. Sure.

Isn’t it funny how Hannity is a “man of the people”, yet makes millions upon millions of dollars a year…then calls others who have a higher degree of education but make much less, elitists?! You know what they say about people who have inferiority and phallic complexes…

It pretty rational to think that those who start name calling when they don’t like what someone else says aren’t that bright themselves.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Is it rational? WHO started the namecalling? I saw rude personal attacks in the very first post of yours I read. Also you snivel embarassingly about LIBERAL rudeness and yet I didnt see you take Hannity to task here. Not to mention liberals put up with DECADES of Limbaugh, Coulter and Savage and their very STAPLE is calling us names and making rude mischaracterizations about what liberals are. Did you EVER take any of THEM to task for how they treat us? I am betting you dont because you APPLAUD conservative rudeness and whine like a pathetic little girlscout about our rudeness. Its fine for YOU to tell US to go back to sleep but its so mean for us to tell you that you are a moron. You MAKE stupid arguments then snivel that we point out they are stupid. Ya got nothin. Did you think you were challenging? Do you not get how absolutly easy you are? Its tougher to shoo away houseflies than counter your weak arguments. You dont even TRY to make sense just toss out whatever floats to the top of the sump you have in the place of a brain then whine we are so mean to you. You really need to get over yourself and by the way, the silly variations of I know you are but what am I arguments you keep making werent clever when I first heard them in second grade

I don’t get it. How can people listen to these morons, Hannity, Limbaugh, O’Reilly, et al.?!
Shocking. All because they think the conservatives are going to do something about Roe v. Wade and Gay marriage.
Unbelievable!
September 11th, 2008 at 7:27 pmHannity was getting upset because the truth was coming out on his party. What a rude prick Hannity is.
September 11th, 2008 at 7:34 pmHannity et. al. wonder why people don’t consider them real journalists?

I agree, Tracy… but I’m surprised to hear you think that Hannity isn’t that bright.
Good for you!
Thinking for yourself and everything, you’re becoming a man, Tracy… snif… and to think I knew you when you were telling people that there are no grey areas in crime and that all theft should be punished equally, whether it be a loaf of bread or a billion dollars… so proud…
September 11th, 2008 at 8:03 pmTracy__5 Says: “With all that education, Kuttner must be an ELITIST!”
That is the way many liberals view themselves.
Define elitist, or your version of elitist. Im curious.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:08 pmFox goofballs like Hannity, with no facts, no research, just bullying, lies, dishonesty, & intimidation, have no right to be on the air. They are Repub propaganda talking heads. No truth, just talking points. They are truly the lowest of the low in the media, and that’s pretty low.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:11 pmThe point of the post, I think, is that our economy is in a bad way. The name calling, by those who, perhaps, aren’t able to be the bigger person, is a result of if the economy is or is not in dire straights.
Hannity, it seems, is avoiding the economical issue, just as McCain is.
I am sick and tired of rumor mongering spin doctors. I want real answers to the issues at hand.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:12 pmTracy__5 Says:

September 11th, 2008 at 8:18 pmYou are exactly right and for tracy and backup to come here and try to defend hannity who couldn’t even sit through hearing the truth is magnificent justification for the abuse that gets rained on their heads each time they come here on yet another fools errand.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:21 pmWhat is your cure for what ails our economy?
This is an open question.
I say we need to regulate greed. We need better wages so the American people can buy what they need and be able to save, which they dont today, as savings puts liquidity in the system.
Offshoring jobs is not patriotic, it creates higher profits, for a time, but overall it creates less jobs for Americans, and then out economy suffers because Americans cant consume.
Repeal the Gramm Leach Bliely act and close loopholes.
Globalisation…cant be accomplished thru war. We need better diplomacy and relations.
Dont restart the cold war.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:23 pmYou are exactly right and for tracy and backup to come here and try to defend hannity -Pete
Indeed. I am not about to defend any media pundit, to do so is to involve ones self with non-issues that obfuscate that what people want to really find out about, issues.

I don’t think he’s avoiding it so much as spinning it. He’s getting paid to sell Republican economics to middle-class Americans. The economy has never been so bad in my lifetime and I’ve been voting since 1972. This mess lands completely on the Republican doorstep and Sean,, Rush, Glen Beck and the rest of the Republican apologists have a yeoman’s task to convince their low information audience that things aren’t so bad. At least keep the illusion alive until after the election.
September 11th, 2008 at 8:31 pmWell, I tuned into Bill O’reilly the last few days because he had Obama on and have now come to the realization what Faux Noise’s modus operandi is: if your guest strays from the conservative view or the RNC talking points, shout them down.
It was funny, Billo quoted an AP article saying that one set of the interviews of Obama (presumably fox) shouted him down when he tried to answer and the other (presumably MSNBC) gave him softballs. I watched both, and both asked the same questions of Obama… the difference was that on Fox, Billo continually interrupted him and interjected his nitwit opinion and RNC talking points to try to bait Obama (which he did not fall for) and on MSNBC he was allowed to answer the questions put to him and there was none of the baiting going on, Olbermann showed RESPECT for the interviewee. Bill claimed he was just trying to keep Obama from wandering because he had limited time for the interview, but what I saw was not an attempt to focus the discussion, rather an attempt to bait Obama into getting flustered or angry.
It took watching less than one episode of Billo to see him for the stunning hypocrite that he is, I honestly don’t understand homw people can take Billo and Hannity seriously.
And one other slighty off topic comment regarding ratings, Fox’s ratings are where they are because the “liberals” actually take an interest in hearing view points other than their own, so they (like myself) will watch the conservative blowhards to try to understand both sides of the issues, but the conservatives seem to just watch Fox and stick their fingers in their ears and yell “LA LA LA LA LA LA IM NOT LISTENING LALALALALALAL” if someone starts to voice a different opinion than theirs. (yes a gross generalization, my apologies to any intelligent conservatives out there who weigh both sides of an issue before deciding… you seem to be in the minority)
September 11th, 2008 at 8:45 pmThis is one of the best posts I have ever read. Hat is off to you Sir.

September 12th, 2008 at 9:05 am3. sean hannity: n. 1. The act of inserting ones fist into the rectum of a fox viewer without the benefit of Crisco. Sean hannity has wet dreams of being sean hannitied by Keith Olbermann.
September 12th, 2008 at 11:49 amStating the obvious here, but Hannity really is ridiculous. Denying the current state of the economy by proudly proclaiming that years of credit over-inflation gave us prosperity and growth is like marveling at the amazing heat and energy the a-bomb gave off without considering the casualties.
September 12th, 2008 at 12:36 pmOnly a fool would ever agree to appear on Fox “News.”
September 12th, 2008 at 8:14 pmCan’t wait for the Palin interview. Hannity will be drooling like a bull moose over her.
September 12th, 2008 at 11:38 pmWhat recession under Clinton-Gore? How do eight years of unprecedented growth under Clinton contain a recession? Hannity is full of it. While there still has not been a technical recession under Bush-Cheney, the economy has been propped up by the robber barons at the top. Statistical skew prevents a technical recession even though the median family has been hurting under Bush for a long, long time.
And Hannity thinks spending $1 trillion on Americans is crazy, yet he has absolutely no problem spending that amount bombing Iraq, fighting a horribly mismanaged war there, and then trying to rebuild that country after the mess we created there.
Sean Hannity, get back on your meds.
September 13th, 2008 at 2:21 amMy Grandma had a saying-”Raise your fist, lose the argument”.
But I really was hoping to see Hannity’s head explode.
September 13th, 2008 at 11:09 amWow, what a deranged, Obama hater. Headity (b/c he is a head case) has a profound hatred for Obama and I am really starting to fear for Barack’s safety. Really, I am. This country is SICK and the most laughed at around the world!
September 14th, 2008 at 10:04 pmI don’t care if you’re a Republican or a Democrat. Sean Hannity is a complete idiot! How he manages to still deliver the news is beyond me! He can never substantiate the news he reports. He makes up things as he goes along, is completely full of caca, in a nut shell, a compete Bull shit artist. He understand nothing of politics, never mind the economy. He thinks he owns the world and that everyone should bow to his obvious stupidity. He is a narrow minded uneducated idiot that surpasses all morons I have ever encountered. He is short tempered, horribly versed, never listens, and never lets people finish their thoughts. That alone demonstrates the minuscule brain inside his fat ugly pathetic head. Aside his buddy G.W the moron Bush and Bill the dick head O’Reilly, and lets’ not forget his girl friend Palin, the world thinks he is a complete loser. I thought he was going to get on his knees and kiss Palin’s ass while he was interviewing her! What’s the matter Sean, you’re soft on her? Or is it that you embrace her radical and ignorant ideas? One dummy to the other I suppose! You found each other. Now, get the hell out, and let competent people do their jobs and save this nations from lunatic like you.
October 2nd, 2008 at 1:16 amI quit listening to this retard years ago. I thought everything
November 19th, 2008 at 5:15 pmhe said was just crap. He used to be so certain that WMD would be found. Books that have come out like the one written by
the CIA director say that there really was no evidence of WMD.
The document that IRAQ was trying to buy uranium from Africa
and a document from IRAQs head of intelligence to Sadam
about Mohammed Atta traning in IRAQ were faked by BUSH
and Cheney. His comments about how great the economy
is doing never mentioned the fact that BUSH was stimulating
the economy with trillions of dollars of borrowed money.
The country now has almost 5 trillion dollars more debt
than when Bush came into office.
Bush added a trillion dollars to the national debt faster
than any other president.
Hannity acts like it is outrageous that Obama has said
he will spend a trillion dollars.
He used to say what great man Bush was. From what I
have read Bush has been mediocre at everything he has
done in his life.
He has a history degree with a C average.
He made the minimum passing score on the test to qualify
to get into Air Force pilot school.
He only got in to the pilot school because of his fathers
connectons as a congressman.
His father probably set things up so he could go to
Harvard and graduate.
Most businesses he tried to run failed.
He’s had problems with alcohol and drug abuse.
It’s hard to believe there are so many stupid
people in this country that don’t see Hannity
for the usless idiot that he is and just stop
listening to his show.
This is another example that the “old world jounalism of Murrow, Cronkite and Rather is dead and buried. In the case of the Time Magazine reporter Ms Tumulty, she seems to think the finding out the who, what, where, when and how have been replaced with a steno pad, which she records what ABC said in rebuttle to the complaint of Congressman Kucinich. There is a great disconnect with what happened and the points made by ABC. She asks little of no questions to ABC. She takes what is handed to her and repeats it vebatim and then calls that reporting. I call is stenography. Lida Sohbet sohbet sesli chat Gelinlik Modelleri
January 11th, 2009 at 10:40 amIf you’re referring to Karl Schwarz’ articles, if they are true, how will we ever know unless the news media gets involved without bias?

That pre-9/11 August 10, 2000 article drives the point home to me that Cheney had a vested interest in the oil at the Caspian Sea area (before 9/11). Fx15 From all I’ve read in Schwarz’ articles, he claims the Taliban was working on a deal with Argentina with that pipeline in the Caspian Sea area and UNOCOL wanted the deal instead.
