Real America’s Voice (RAV) is great!
Unlike El Rushbo, Hannity also suffers from the fact that he is not funny.
Neither are *ay and *uck.
*ay constantly uses the word “emblematic”.
This Guy has researched the issue and it turns out it is impossible to be funny and to use the term “emblematic” at the same time.
Thinking about making a list of similar words. As a guide to people who would lije to avoid sabotaging themselves when they are trying to entertain at least in part by the use of humor.
Liddy had his own radio show for years.
“Hannity is a parrot, 99% of the time he simply gets the RNC talking point memo of the day and just repeats the talking points verbatim over and over no matter what anyone says to him in an “interview” etc.
He’s not a sharp man, made lots of money being a parrot, but a great intellect he is not.”
^^ THIS. 100% re “Sean Vanity” (as Savage used to call him), and I agree with the poster above who said, “I never learn anything listening to him.”
But do I agree with others on here that Hannity is an example of the one of the “closet liberals of conservative media”? No, I don’t think that he is secretly sympathetic to leftist views. Honestly, I think that label is more appropriate for some of the ladies of Fox News such as Tomi Lahren or “Kennedy” or Arthel Neville whom I suspect conform some of their opinions to what’s kosher to Fox viewers.
“Hannity is a parrot, 99% of the time he simply gets the RNC talking point memo of the day and just repeats the talking points verbatim”
Exactly. It gets comical at times—particularly in this age of instant communications where the morning talking points could be obsolete by the time an evening show goes on the air.
Think about how active it is around here on interesting topics—from the opening post to a few hours later there may be a lot of new and interesting information that has been discovered and shared—sometimes even in direct conflict with the original post.
Hannity was foisted upon the nation in 1996 when he replaced the great Bob Grant on WABC who was fired for his Ron Brown remarks.
I don’t think Hannity is a closet liberal, I was only commenting on Hannity as being a parrot. Definitley don’t believe him to be a closet liberal at all.
Really? You would have preferred Dukakis, Al Gore, and John Kerry as presidents?
Jay Leno tends to do that as well on his car show. I know it’s cars and not politics but it bugs me and he seems to be getting worse in this area with age. I almost never listen to Hannity.
No. Have not read it.
You know what, I probably would’ve preferred to Dukakless over the crypto communist Bush clan.
Apologies. I didn’t mean to imply that you were among those pointing to Hannity as an example of the thread title. I replied to (and quoted) your post because it was such an excellent “executive summary” of Sean. Cheers.

. totally agree
i paused on newsmax the other day and heard Tom talking and the newsmax dude said most of what tom said was wrong
spit
newsmax is the media's mikejohnson
worthless and never to be trusted no matter how big their hat is they ( newsmax )
are all no cattle frauds imho.
No he didn’t. Being a traitor or a fraud is not the same as ideological heresy. The later is a difference of opinion. The former are warmongers spouting conservative talking points while doing not a single conservative thing in their lives, you know, like Lyin’ Ryan and Bloodshot Boehner. There is all the difference in the world between reasonable compromise and sell-out.
Haven’t you seen many of them switch between Fox and CNN? They have people on CNN we used to like on FOX, and now they have “become” reprehensible leftists.
Ever listen to Howie Carr in the Boston area? NOT a liberal.
I do consider myself as a classic liberal/modern conservative. Democratic Liberalism today is the socialist and communist co-oped the name to hide their true identities with thier authoritarianism and neo-socialist ideals. E.g. people who hate capitalism, want socialism/stalinism, but don’t mind profiting off capitalism with the example of college professors.
That’s true to varying degrees
Many are latecomers to Trump
And neocons
And love to virtue signal over race and bash my region to inoculate themselves from charges that conservatives are racist
Very few genuine paleos in the bunch honestly
It is what it is
What amuses me here and always has is the adoration showered on some
Yes Mr Hoover Institute farmer I’m talking about you
“So as much as I hate abortion, it’s not a federal government job to ‘do something’ about that”
It’s murder. That should not be allowed at any level of law in America.
I found A&G unlistenable when they replaced Rush on KONP. Unfunny, contrived, and very little insight or decent analysis.
Perhaps they have improved, but I no longer listen to that station. Kinda miss the morning want ads, though.
