Default Sean Hannity

I very rarely get through my drive home listening to Hannity without changing the station to NPR or some other outlet. Not so much because I disagree with him, but because the liberal callers he engages in dialogue with are so moronic. It would be funny if he did it once in a while, but he does it almost every day.....Hey Sean... We already know these people are stupid....it is not funny or entertaining....get real guests with something to say more often.

This is the same reason I don't come on PW much anymore. Without naming names I have to say most of the prominent left wing posters are just as stupid as the Hannity callers. They are completely unarmed in a battle of wits and it is almost pointless to deal with them. I used to think engaging in polemics with them was a good way to influence the thinking of middle of the road people, however there are almost no middle of the road people on PW; PB or any other political forum sites I have been to.

I never heard Hannity let the opposition finish a sentence. Call up and agree with him and you're a great American.

That's pretty much the same with any talk show host right or left, I think. There's a couple of exceptions. Michael Medved is pretty sweet with the Progs, but he bogs them down with facts until they're going "um, um..." then hangs up.

I've never heard anybody attempt it, but I wouldn't be optimistic on my chances of dropping right wing talking points on that Commie psycho Mike Malloy's show.

I don't listen to Hannity that much, so I still get a kick out of his put-downs of left wing callers. I like when they call up, and pretend to be right wing, or independent, and Hannity sees through them before they complete their first comment, and before the end of the call he's talking to them about "Your guy, Obama".

Hannity's not even the worst. Try going to YouTube and looking up Michael Savage. He's a terror on those poor progressive saps.

Saying you do not listen to Hannity because the callers are stupid is like saying you do not want to go to hell because the chairs are uncomfortable.

Trust me, the chairs are the least of your worries in hell.

I hear Hannity on his radio show every now and then. I normally listen for a minute or two just to hear what wild, uneducated, rightwing babble he is spewing.

Trust me, the leftwing callers are not what you should be upset about.

I tried to call Hannity a few years ago on his radio show. I forget what the topic was, but Hannity had just said something ridiculous and I felt compelled to call and did, though did not get on the air.

If I am going to listen to bias conservative radio, I will go with Limbaugh or Savage. Sure, they are torch-carriers, but unlike Hannity, they have a sign of intelligence and not a barren, wasteland of stupidity like Sean.

I'm going to take this opportunity to, once more, pimp my favorite radio talk show.

This is the best bar none, and as you can see at the link they have podcasts of all the shows, so you can listen to them at your leisure.

FM NewsTalk 97.1 - St. Louis

She's grassroots, tea party though, so be warned.

I have seen her before on CNN, though cannot recall any of her specific points. She is an attractive woman.

If that site streams live, I will check her out one day.

There's a listen live box at the link I just gave you, but if you just want a taste, go to that link, and click the box that says "Jobs report does not make sense".

On Fridays she has this great feature she does called "Mailbag of hate" where she reads hate emails she gets from Progs in funny voices. I love it.

On one of those boxes (the end of the broadcast she does from CPac), she does this hilarious thing where she shows Joe Biden ("Gonna put y'all back in chains") the correct way to do a Southern Baptist Preacher voice by reading out the ingredients of a bag of Cheeze-its in Southern Baptist preacher-speak.

Oh Rush is pretty good with Liberal callers, especially if they are civil. He generally destroys their arguments, such as they are, but he tries to do it politely as long as they don't get wiggy. It's not uncommon for him to plead with them to think as opposed to simply arguing with them.

Mark Levin on the other hand, and I like him, makes Hannity look like a patient, gentle humanitarian ministering to crippled, but cherished minds.

Aping urbanity,
Oozing with vanity,
Plump as a manatee,
Faking humanity,
Intellectual inanity,
Journalistic calamity,
Fox Noise insanity,
You’re a profanity,
Hannity.
