Does anyone else think Spidey is just one of Butterbean's alt's?

I can't decide who has less common sense.

Sean Hannity gets irate with a guest. Fast forward to 2:00.

Hannity looks and sounds like a teenager who took too much nandrolone and is having a bit of roid rage. Why do Americans watch such nonsense? Or, is this a show for guys on steroid overdoses?

First of all, he ruins any points he is trying to make by yelling and calling names. If any of his points are valid, he's destroying them with his conduct.

Secondly, he isn't effectively rebutting anything because he is yelling and being overly aggressive, something he learned at O'Reilly's feet.

Finally, the subsequent events, as several posters above have noted, have made Hannity look like he wasn't paying attention for the last year.

Thanks for posting this link. Now I understand, yet again, why I don't watch Fox Spews and Cartoon Network.

Why are we wasting our laughter on an idiot like Hannity? While missing the point

Because in 46 more days we, the American people, must answer all those future questions.

Now, boys and girls, which major candidate for President on 9/15/08 said, "The fundamentals of the American Economy are Sound?" ( hint. The answer is John S. McCain )

Does that sound exactly like Hannity to you?

I'm starting to believe that wingnuts are like alcoholics or drug addicts.

When an alcoholic ingests alcohol, it sets off an irrational craving beyond their ability to control, a destructive interplay between chemistry and consciousness. In that altered state, they'll immediately go into denial if confronted. That denial fuels more drinking, and the circle is complete, reinforcing itself. The only thing explaining it is the mental defect/ disease model.

It's the same for Wingers, except it's rhetoric that sets off the mental imbalance. They love it, crave it, and the feeling it gives them. Hannity is about as rational as 'roid rage, but he satisfies that craving in his audience, even as he creates it and suffers form it himself....

He's just pannicing as he knows that things like the economy tanking will cause the voters to concentrate on the issues which is definitely in Obama's favor. If it's about issues then the fact that McCain was a POW and Palin is a Soccer Mommy will be irrelevant to the voters which spells doom for the Republicans.

No instead he's all over Palin giving her softball questions which point the blame at Obama from the get-go.

FOX news is pretty much the most biased news station I have ever seen. It should be looked at with the same credibility level that Comedy Central's shows have, except that Comedy Central's shows are at least somewhat funny.

See, that's the difference. He looked like a GREAT AMERICAN to me.

Why? Because he is unable to see or say anything wrong about his country?

That's only the case because he has a Republican president that he would be bashing if he actually talked about the facts that you seem to think he stated.

Hannity: Unemployment in this country has been lower than in the last four decades
Fact: Kind of true if you ignore that unemployment when Bush took office was 4.0% (annual) and the 90's were only worse because Bush's daddy and Reagan's economic philosophies (which Jr. adopted) were crap. When Clinton took office, unemployment was at a 7.5% rate. When he left office, it was 4.0%.

Hannity: Economic growth in the last quarter was 3.3%

Fact: true...unless you adjust for inflation. Since Bush/Republicans took over, GDP has averaged ~1% growth per year. Click Me!

Hannity: Interest rates and inflation have been lower in the Bush years than they have been in the last 3 decades.

Fact: Wrong on inflation rates and I couldn't find historical interest rate data.

Hannity: You are trying to convince the American people that something is wrong

Fact: The American people are already convinced.

Super pretty please let Hannity keep telling people watching his show that the economy is great by pointing to unemployment and "growth." When the news shows before and after his have 30 minute segments on century old banking institutions failing and government bailouts of the world largest insurance co's, people might start to wonder what prescription he's abusing and where they might score some. "The fundamentals of our economy are strong" and "people are whiners" is already chipping away at Mac's numbers, so by all means, keep preaching fantasy and hopefully just enough people will wake up to make a difference.

I'm also pleased to see Hannity and Rush under fire.

They weren't touched by the Dems in 2004.

Sean Hannity once again shows what a partisan hack he is. FOX news really needs to be abolished.

A partisan talk show host, talking about partisan politics on a political talk show? YOU DON'T SAY! He should be fired immidiately and replaced by a sensible, non-partisan intelligent journalist whom will report the news factually correctly and without political spin. Someone like, oh say, Dan Rather! Or Keith Olbermann!

If he has nothing intelligent to say then his approach is just fine, though I'd be in favor of firing him in that case.

If he has something intelligent to say then he should calm down and present his arguments like a grownup, not like a ten year old with a whine on.

To manowar821,

Who is running for President, John S. MCain or Lee Cowan?

Who is more worth discussing, John S. McCain or Lee Cowan?

When both John McCain and Sean Hannity are making the same basic statements on the economy, it links them together on this thread which is about the economy.

Please tell this board why Lee Cowan has any relevant place on this thread and why you felt compelled to inject him in as a total irrelevancy regarding anything to do with the economy?

I agree that Hannity is a partisan hack but the station that most needs to be abolished is MSNBC. The whole crew over there are major league partisan hacks. Mathews has an orgasm when Obama speaks, Olbermann has BMDS (Bush/McCain Derangement Syndrome), and Maddow is a republican hater with an agenda, (never has a republican on her show ..... or if she does they are morons set up by her). Those shows are so obviously one sided it's embarrassing! I used to watch Mathews Hardball show and considered him somewhat fair until about 6 months ago when he seemed to go off the deep edge, (caused somehow by Olbermann?).
I rarely watch either channel for news anymore ...... hopefully they will go back to mainstream issues after the election ........ I won't hold my breath though.

Get rid of both. No one needs Partisan Hack Networks of either sort.

Questions for you:
  1. What planet are you from?
  2. How many minutes ago did you arrive, here?
  3. How bad are things, there, that would make you think that? :roll:

The Topic of this post is "Hannity blows up"
Topic Summary is "great video"
Topic Body is "Sean Hannity gets irate with a guest. Fast forward to 2:00."
Relevance is two ppl fighting in the video
Nowhere does it mention or point to Economy, BHO or my master McCain then WHY THE FVCK does your post even exist??? This is what happens when you dont put down the kool aid even while typing.
I hope this is a explanation is enough for you and the board (by which, I am sure you mean your BHO zombies friends).

...and Mr. Red Dawn - I am sorry to run the reality in your face :p

* reference kool aid? - check.
* uses multiple question marks? - check.
* mentions the term BHO? - check.
* worships FOX news, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, rides Rush Limbaugh's jock, and has an alter with Sarah Palin in his house? - check.
* is a traitor to America and everything it's founding fathers stood for? - check.

The Jon Stewart Show and Colbert Report do make fun of both sides - seems like more recently. Granted, it's usually the right but maybe it's just because it's so easy the past 8 years. ;)

Wow you must be some kind of mind reader? I didnt say anything about this country of its founders but you still found out that I am a traitor.
or is it just another left loon cornered and responded with uncontrolled blabber just like his master... hmmm... wonder which one it is...

Edit: You forgot Glen Beck
