Can't view the flash, but Hannity is a douche. At least the RP nutz are doing something useful!

:laugh:

Some other clown posted this video in another thread. It's sad, because behavior like that only reinforces the anti-Paul stereotypes and completely detracts from the issues which Paul and his supporters (most of them, anyway) are so concerned about.

Who gives a shit? Ron Paul should be judged on the validity of his political positions, not the behavior of a small group of his supporters.

LOL.. who cares? There's fringe assholes supporting any candidate. Is this the worst you can find on Ron Paul?

Sean Hannity deserves a couple snowballs..

Hell.. the Ron Paul supporters did nothing worse than Bill O' Reilly at Obama's rally..

Did you even watch the video? All they did was follow him on the street and jeer him. OH NOES!

Let them have something tangible against Paul, shoosh, you know how hard it is to pin down a man that hasn't changed his views in over 20 yrs? Give them a break!

I agree. H&C gave The Chief Loon way too many interview blocks, at least one was over a half hour. What a waste. They gave him the most individual face time (cumulatively several hours) of any of the Fox shows and (probably) most of the other News/Commentary on the other channels.

So, Hannity's been suitably punished by the usual suspects and now all we'll see is the video of the group of short-sighted thugish idiots over and over again representing the common mob of RP2 supporters.

And, as far as "There's fringe assholes supporting any candidate;" That may be true, but you don't hear much about 'em (I haven't anyway). Aside from Obama's phone bank being eight seconds late to ID the call source (per the HRC camp)... the complaints have all been regarding the RP camp and their operating practices (or at least the practices of the rabid supporters).

Good Job, Thank you, whoever you were. You are the candidate's worst enemy, and somehow, that's fitting.

I don't even care about Ron Paul but this is very true. Seems an awfully large brush is being used here to tar his supporters.

To be honest I just wonder what Sean Hannity felt like when people were screaming stupid incoherant crap at him for once instead of the other way around.

Oh no--make it stop, Ron Paul Bots dumping on Hannity. Ass holes meet ass holes.

I almost feel sorry for Hannity for being mistreated. But I just could not find my world's smallest violin to play hearts and flowers.

When you dish it out, be prepared to take it. What goes around comes around. Hannity is a public figure who must meet public licensing requirements, the protesters have no such restraints. They have drowned out Hannity right to free speech but only after Hannity started it first.

Pardon me if I don't defend Hannity like I would someone who was simply being treated unfairly because their message was merely unpopular free speech.

He made his bed and now he can lay in it. Somehow I doubt he will learn a damn thing. But after all the hero worship he gets from his fanbots, it must be bitter tea to discover its also has a down side.

"Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market, individual liberty, and the end of welfare and affirmative action.... Given the inefficiencies of what D.C. laughingly calls the "criminal justice system," I think we can safely assume that 95% of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal."

Pretty easy actually.

Can you show me where Hannity chases people down in mobs and screams at them?

I'm no Hannity fanatic and I haven't seen his show in a long time, but come on.

Hannity showed composure and did the the right thing by ignoring those buffoons...which caused those paulbots to get flustered even more, I bet they voted in TWICE as many online polls that night - hannity got his! keep going against the grain, you rebel paulbots you! :laugh:

TBH...I find it disturbing that people can get that riled up over a person like Hannity. He is a complete moran and as someone else so eloquently put it...a doucebag. I think that the crowd's following him all the way to the door of his hotel is a little overboard even if they have the right and as they might feel the obligation to voice their disapproval.

I do find the irony of Hannity facing a mob of people as rabid as he tries to get his audience pretty amusing however. :)

Hannity is the asshole that he is because he doesn't spend much time in a bar.

In reality only one-eighth of those [Longshot] Ron Paul supporters are actual humans, the rest are computer generated holograms made by minuscule number of [No-Hope-For-Presidency] Ron Paul supporters who also happen to be uber haxX0rs.

This is kind of like bitching and moaning about a mob attacking a neo-nazi. The sane response is a laugh and possibly some cheering.

There's always one, though, I guess.

Good, then explain why anyone should support someone who withdrew from a spot on Neal Boortz's national radio show?

Huckabee showed, Terry McAufflie (Hillary's campaign manager) was even on!

Now Paul went on some less known non-nationwide shows.......


I guess he is just like his supporters, avoid the hard questions or tough minded people

I, for once, agree with you. Hannity is just a pretty-boy wannabe Rush Limbaugh. Not quite as bad as Coulter though...

IDK that Ron Paul "ran scared" because of him. Meet the press guy is pretty tough and he went on there.

But heres Neal Boortz (for those who dont know, I didnt) and a Paul supporter:
