I heard both days of conservation. I don't believe for one second the father was as conservative/moderate as he claimed. I noticed both he and his daughter had the same distinctive liberal/radical debating style.
Every time Hannity ask a point of reference question such as do you support the war effort to remove the Nazis they would squeal in shocked disbelief "excuse me?"
Neither one was used to having their world view questioned. For them a substantive debate between to radical points of view would be should felons be given the vote while incarcerated vs giving the vote to illegal aliens. In the end both win out.
They are only used to talking with each other or the intellectual lazy, who would much prefer talking about Nipplegate at the Super bowl. Needless to say they have come to see themselves as superior to everyone else, a real debate throws them off. You can always tell by "excuse me?".

Or they would repeat Sean's question back to him verbatim, with an "excuse me?" tone at the end. Particularly the daughter, she clearly had never had anyone challenge her core beliefs before - all she could say to Sean in response was to mockingly say "Wow! Isn't it interesting that I'm 19 years old and I'm making you mad!"

The knucklehead father reminded me of John Walker's father - remember the "American Taliban"? His father said that he'd let his son explore ideas on his own - everything is relative, don-cha know. No clear-cut right vs. wrong. Look what happened to the kid.
