Does Hannity think we all have shit for brains????
I can barely stand to watch this idiot anymore and you can almost
guess who the guests will be...give or take one week to the next.
Tonight was pathetic when he commented on why would the bookstores
not want to stock the Unfit for Duty book and just let the Americans
decide???????????????
I wish i could stick my foot so far up his ass and then tell him
probably the same reason we Democrats couldnt see the Ronald Reagan
movie and decide for ourselves.
Why the hell dont these democrats that come on Hannitys show just once
let him have it?????????????????????

14. even a broken clock
is right twice a day. There's no reason a bookstore shouldn't carry that or any other book, baring child pornography. The exchange of ideas, even ones that are flawed and false, are part of a free society. If you censor one viewpoint, you may as well censor all.

16. I believe we must add one other category to the "do not carry" list:
Books that contain libel.

19. The book store is not a court,
and are not liable for libel. The publisher/ author are responsible for the content of the book. And good luck trying to prove libel anything against a presidential candidate, especially from accounts of events that took place over thirty years ago.

17. He's a symptom.
Of all the closet Klansmen who are finally coming out and saying, 'look, we pretended to listen to you commies and you darkies and you broads for the last 20 or so years, but since we own the place, the truth is, we're just tired of this, it's gotten annoying, so we're going to shut you up and shut you down now, so please, kindly step aside, so us big fat-headed white men can get back to the business of fucking up the entire world and ending life on this planet as we know it'.

This is how joe surgical strike really feels inside, and Hannity and O-Reilly and all the other swarthy studs of spew and sarcasm are the sex symbols of this movement, which proves to me conclusively that their followers are more than a little gay, if they get a Hannity hard-on every time this guy or O'Wrongly bellows.

18. Yes and no. I've decided that Hannity & Limbaugh & their ilk exist
Edited on Sat Aug-21-04 06:54 AM by no_hypocrisy
because of a theme: conservative republicans, neocons, and the silent majority as a demographic are threatened by liberalism, democrats, and progressives. And as a group on the short end of the political stick (as they are reminded each program), they have to be in a perpetual war for their rights. Gun rights. Fetus rights. Christian rights. Property rights.

More 15 years ago, some program director put his finger in the air and decided which way the wind was blowing for a lucrative radio talk show. Something where the prattle need not be witty, but rather simple and "common sense". Something that would appeal to the masses. Something that would get otherwise apathetic nonlisteners to tune in every day and cheer every other sentence by the talk show host.

Hannity is just another inculcation of such a developing entertainment model. Shit for brains? Sure. But it works. He looks no more intelligent than his listeners, and they like that. He's one of them as their spokesman. Consider the organization of his arguments. They are disjointed and disorganized. And when a guest or caller can "out-debate" Hannity, he falls into the bag of tricks known as logical fallacies. Example: instead of trying to win an unwinnable point, he personally attacks the guest/caller and/or changes the subject. This is America, ladies and gentlemen. Your neighbors talk just like Sean Hannity. This is why he is "popular", because he comes from the wellspring of the populus.

21. Samplegirl, I share your feelings. I heard "Some say" several
times last night. Why don't any of their guests ask who in the hotel bill "Some" is?

26. Welcome to DU, JudgeSmales!
The few times I've been forced to catch any of that show, I have pretty much seen only the loud-mouthed Freeper. I just can't stomach this sort of thing, so it wouldn't be worth it to me to put up with Hannity to see Colmes. Buchanan and Press is not so bad. I never thought I would ever agree with anything Pat Buchanan had to say, but he is growing on me. Ever since he came out against the war in Iraq, he has had my attention. Anyway, welcome to DU! Glad to have you with us!:toast:

28. Poor Colmes................I feel Sorry for him
At times in the Past I us to hate him for being so passive an letting Hannity dominate the show. But I understand It is the Right wing Fox news so what can he do. I just wish we had a Chris Matthews or a James Carville to but Hannity an his guest in their place. But this is Fox news so they will make sure that will never happen

27. Why waste your energy on them?
Talking to your dog or a brick wall will accomplish more.

Concentrate on the prize.

29. I have a question
do you like feeling angry and frustrated?

The ONE and only time I watched that loser I wanted to shove bricks through my TV and engage in about two hours of primal screams. That or hurt someone.

My recommendation: don't watch him. Spare yourself. Personally I think listening to that shit pollutes your brain. Seriously. It's one thing to know their point of view (but I get it from reading the internet) it's another thing to actually LISTEN to the punks spewing shit all over your TV screen.

Turn it off, man.
