"'You are the worst excuse for a journalist I've ever seen'"
In an epic interview for the ages, a Democratic congressman unloaded on Fox News anchor Sean Hannity Tuesday night with a non-stop verbal assault on the popular host.
Hannity opened up a segment on President Obama’s tactics regarding budget issues by saying, “Our alarmist in chief, President Panic himself, he did not feel the need to be at the White House today, nor did he think it was important enough to visit Capitol Hill and try to hammer out a bipartisan solution to the mess that he himself has put the country in.”
He showed a montage of recent Obama remarks with a soundtrack of ominous music behind it.
Hannity then introduced U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., the first Muslim ever elected to Congress, who took little time to insult the program’s host.
“Quite frankly, you are the worst excuse for a journalist I’ve ever seen,” Ellison told Hannity at the outset.
“What you just displayed was not journalism. It was yellow journalism. It wasn’t anything close to try to tell the American people what’s really going on. It’s just shocking to me.”
“Yellow journalism?” responded Hannity. “To play Obama in his own words is yellow journalism?”
Ellison tried to label Hannity as a champion for Republican causes, saying, “You are a shill for the Republican Party and you alibi them constantly. You alibi them 100 percent of the time.”
“I am not a registered Republican. I’m a registered conservative,” Hannity explained.
At one point that became somewhat comedic, Ellison told Hannity, “You said I could rant, and I am.”

“Oh brother, who writes this stuff for Hannity? “
On which issue is he a liberal?
Hannity should have asked her when michael moore changed to the Republican party.
Yep if the pubs don’t start daily slamming obamma and his minions as liars who are trying to destroy our country we have lost..the truth works all else is bs..
liberal? What are you talking about liberal? That word is not in the comment you responded to.
See : #39 for a list,
Epic??? I turned off Fox for the night in the middle of thie “epic”.
Keith Ellison is proof that one should.....
“keep his mouth shut and be thought a fool, than to open it and remove all doubt”.
I turn the station when Hannity uses his standard fall back reply: Oh that’s right, Republicans want dirty air, dirty water, etc...I just scream in my car when I hear it...like nails on a chalkboard. He just repeats that crap every day.....
I switch the station on the car, or on the TV, every time they start talking over each other. It seems that I am doing that more and more often.
There is underway a coordinated multi-front effort to brand "Republicans" as enemies of the State and good public order.
This effort is progressive, it is escalating, and there is no reason to believe that it will end any differently than such processes have ended before, elsewhere in the world, many times now since 1792.
That’s because there actually is the Conservative party in NYS. I reregistered as a Conservative.

Gobbels = Goebbels? ;)
The hypocrisy of the left in this country -- as well as their abject, very public hatred of Americans and America -- really angers me!
Indeed!
This jerk ellison is first a holder’s person looking for his reparations and second a dirtbag muslim.
Jesse Ventura, alfranken, lamebrain dayton and this goat pill, what the hell is with Minnesota voters????
I knew where we were then and I have not been wrong yet.
It's coming.
That is what he gets for having the son of a bitch on. Wild animals attack.
Why do we even bother trying to talk to these traitors? You will not convince them that they are wrong; we are not going to change our minds.
Hannity would get better ratings banging his head against a wall than this crap.
