2. Yes, it's on, and Hannity is calling for Obama to drop out of the race
and resign his Senate seat immediately.

8. fuck his racist ass, the same Hannity that defended cops who sodomized a prisoner
a black prisoner. Oh yeah and he also mocked the victim openly on his radio show.

92. I remember that
I used to listen to his radio show and he even had the cop's father on every day to speak about the trial. Sean defended that cop up until the minute he confessed.

109. he really is a cruel disgusting piece of shit and since he proclaims his faith in
God he better be prepared when he shuffles off this earth to meet the vengeful god he proclaims to believe in.

155. And you can practically
divine what he's going to say next. Just think of what would be the most insidious, right wing, assholish thing to say and lo and behold, it's the next thing out of his mouth. He disgusts me. Weirdly enough, he was much different before he went national. I listened to his show and knew he was a conservative but he often had liberals on his show and was always respectful during interviews even while disagreeing. He allowed calls from liberals and didn't interupt. Then he went national and insane all at the same time. His transformation was almost overnight into a wannabe Rush. He really sold his soul and I agree he's got a lot to answer for in the afterlife.

because he believes that Obama believes exactly as Wright and is a traitor.

I'm on the east coast and they haven't interviewed Sen Obama yet on my cable. Though I have absolutely no trouble believing Hannity would say any of that.

made me nauseous as usual. I can't even remember the last time I had fox on in my home. I have a lot of faith the the senator is going to wipe the floor with sean, boortz or any other right wing asshole that speaks.

10. I thought "I will watch this one night, just this one night
to see how Obama handles this lion's den."

But Hannity and Boortz are already putting me over the edge. I may not make it.

First they're claiming to show "footage you haven't seen" of Wright saying even MORE incendiary stuff, then they're going to rerun their "EXCLUSIVE" interview with him from the past, before having Obama on.

They barely let their token black female speak a word in Obama's defense before accusing her of rudely interrupting them and deriding her by calling her "Chatty Cathy."

is THIS what passes for normal Fixed Noise programming????? It's worse than I thought!

Hannity is saying Obama is unfit to be president or senator and that he should step down as senator. Saying this will end his campaign.

Sean Hannity is such an arrogrant fucking ASS HOLE

6. Im brave, Im watching it.
They are about to re-air their interview with Wright, then talk with Obama. Hannity is spewing filth as per usual. Funny though, even Neil Boortz was semi defending Obama. However, the jerk called the woman(forget her name) who was defending Obama a 'chatty cathy' and asked if shed be quiet long enough for him to talk.

107. it's the Bad Cop, Worser Cop thingy.
I don't watch Fox but gather that it is unwatchable.
after all, this is the news network that won a suit to defend that they can Lie about news. I forget the details, but I'm sure many here know about that nugget.

If Obama gets a word in edgewise against these vultures, he'll do fine.
what a contrast.

human against numbskull zombies.

67. Not a bad idea actually, he gets to see the tone of the show, plus
you know Slanthead is going to say the same stuff over and over, he can get prepared and take control of the interview. He'll be fine.

72. It's like "icing the kicker" in football - make them sit there for a long
enough time that they start to develop anxiety...one of Hannity's masters probably ordered this approach.

60. It just occurred to me that this show is a risk for Obama
Obama needs to just passively denounce, reject, etc., etc.

But Hannity might say things about Wright's comments that Obama cannot agree with.

For instance, it doesn't help Obama to say Wright is a racist, or to say he is not a racist.

So there's no upside to going on a show where you might be asked, "Do you distance yourself from these racist comments?"

And God help us all if Obama got dragged into whether the 9/11 comments constitute "hating America"

Edited on Fri Mar-14-08 09:28 PM by Patsy Stone
I thought he handled the mine field brilliantly. He said exactly what FOX hoped he wouldn't -- that if he had heard it repeatedly he would have left the church. He brought in the fact that he was a Christian, which will make the people who regulary watch FOX and think he's Muslim very confused, and he remained unflappable and charming through the whole thing.

100. Garrett is acting like a lawyer.
"DID THIS MAN OR DID HE NOT OFFICIATE AT YOUR WEDDING?"

"Yes."

"DID HE OR DID HE NOT BAPTIZE YOUR CHILDREN?"

"I'd like to point out that--"

"ANSWER THE QUESTION! DID HE OR DID HE NOT BAPTIZE YOUR CHILDREN?"

"Yes."

(withering look) "No further questions, Your Honor."

OK, it wasn't THAT bad, but it was close to.

Nothing wrong with tough journalism, but this was slanted stuff, just as much as any attorney in court on cross-examination.

Maybe Obama refused to be interviewed by Hannity since he knows he always interrupts people he disagrees with? Or maybe just a timing thing? Anyway, Obama did a good job.

85. What's Sean Hannity's version of black American history? Shouldn't that be called into question?
If he is going to set himself up as the ultimate arbiter of how black Americans should feel about their history, shouldn't his knowledge of it be tested?

C'mon Sean. I'm sure you know more than me about slavery and Reconstruction and 100 years of Jim Crow and sit-ins and everything.

Please impart your wisdom, so we can assess your judgment.

112. Wow. Obama nailed that. + What happened to Greta Van Susteren's FACE?
First Obama. That was a great interview. He did MUCH better than Keith's interview, IMO. Made it known that had he heard such rhetoric repeatedly while he was in the pews that, yes, he would have left the church. Plugged that Wright helped him "find Christ". Very plain-spoken, very believable. It will go over well. Of course, the Fox minions are waiting for the panel to digest it and tell them what they should think about it.

Now to Greta Van Susteren. WTF? She's had so much plastic surgery that she can now barely open her mouth. She and Cindy McCain must have the same surgeon. Frightening.

141. A presidential candidate cannot win the presidency
if the only way they can compete is by eliminating the competition. Candidates have to shine on their own. If you don't have that shine at the right time in the right place and maybe at the right astrological moment (who knows), you don't win the presidency.

So, when you see a candidate's campaign being driven by the singular objective of trashing their opponent so voters don't have a choice, they always lose.

That is what I see when posters want, so badly, for Obama to fail. Obama did great, and all of this is good practice for all the crap that the Republicans will throw at him in the general election.


GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alan asked her why McCain isn't distancing himself from his own crazies, and then she blames him for asking the question and says he's biased for Obama.

Wow... I'm glad I don't watch this shit often because I think brain cells are dying at an accelerated rate.

140. All I can say is this:
Thank God they at least HAVE a Dem strategist on here.

Morgan to Colmes: "You have a CLEAR bias for Obama."

Go Colmes! At least he's shown SOME guts.

No question: watching Anderson Cooper after this is going to feel like taking a Karen Silkwood shower.

138. What's in the Daily News?
I'll tell what's in the daily news.
Story about a guy who bought his wife a small ruby,
With what otherwise would have been his union dues.
That's what's on the daily news.

What's happening all over? I'll tell you what is happening all over.
Guys sitting home before the television set who used to be something of a rover.
That is what's happening all over.

(I think we could all use a musical interlude, no?)

149. Why it's good old reliable Nathan!
Nathan, Nathan, Nathan Detroit!
If the size of your bundle you want to increase
He'll arrange that you go broke in quiet and peace
In a hideout provided by Nathan
Where there are no neighbors to squawk.
It's the oldest established permanent floating
Crap game in New York.

148. That was an extremely weak performance by Obama
Sorry, I have to call it as I saw it. Reeked of dishonesty, too. NO WAY after 20 years and all that "Black Liberation Theology" crappola did Obama not know Wright's rhetorical tendencies.

I was hoping he had some knockout defense under his belt. Didn't happen. He looks like toast to me.

157. He looked like a stuttering deer in the headlights
Just being honest. I'm NOT enjoying this, trust me. I see him as our candidate, but he's no longer electable. And I personally NEED a Democratic president in a serious way.

162. I think Sen Obama was fine but
was hoping for more. He sounded very defensive. I realize it's hard not to sound that way under the circumstances of a hostile interview so I don't know what I was hoping for but I just felt he should have been able to shame these guys into asking hostile questions in the first place. I think his pastor is a clown (I make no distinctions between right wing and left wing religious freaks). The Rev Wrights out of context quotes are going to scare the shit out of a lot of people - the kind of people called Reagan Democrats.
