I didn't hear that part of Hannity but it seems to me that problems like Freepers "eating their young" can be taken care of with aggressive moderation. It's hard to find time to weed out all the wacko's in a place as big as this, though. From the parts I see Free Republic is as great as it ever was, in my opinion. You're always going to get some weird posts. I'm sure some people consider mine weird!

Here's a weird thing about Hannity I wonder about. It all starts back in the Clinton days. I wanted Congress to impeach Clinton for Treason, Rape, Filegate and Travelgate. But Newt Gingrich refused to allow the Treason and Rape charges to be brought up in Judiciary Committee Hearings. And I know many others were writing and requesting this. Mind you, this is not the actual impeachment, just the Judiciary Committee hearings. Why would Newt do this, I wondered?

Larry Flynt claimed that he was blackmailing members of Congress who were having affairs so they better shut up! But no, that could not be it, I thought. Finally, Newt Gingrich inexplicately resigned. Later we found out he was having an affair with a young staffer! Was he being blackmailed? The next House Speaker, Livingston, also refused Treason and Rape charges, also crashed and burned due to many affairs. Was he also being blackmailed? What about Dennis Hastert? Why did all three Speakers refuse to allow Treason and Rape charges to be explored in the Judiciary Committee Hearings? That is what I would like Sean Hannity to ask Newt Gingrich, Livingston or Dennis Hastert when any of them are on the show.

Maybe Hannity already asked and I didn't happen to hear it, though. Anyone know?

Maybe Sean just had a bad day and one of the Freepers post hit him the wrong way. I am new here, but it seems to me most posters hold Hannity in high regard.

Who knows, maybe there are moles from the DU that are undermining the FReeper site just to keep radio talk hosts from talking about the strength in numbers that this site seems to have. Not to mention the Commitment to reelect GWB.

In due course, I am sure we will all get over it!

Our common goals to reelect GWB are too important to the future of our Country. United we stand, divided the Country to goes to hell in a hand basket.

*You know, I'm not going to name names, but there are a few freepers who seem to make a hobby of bashing certain conservative radio hosts*

Yep, I witnessed it just yesterday in a thread. And they get pretty defensive about it whenever anyone calls them on it, too. What cracks me up is what you mentioned, having nothing but scorn for Rush, Sean, or Levin yet spending the *hours* and *hours* many of them obviously do listening to every word they say. I wouldn't waste five minutes with a radio host I didn't like, but they can cite chapter and verse from practically every show ever aired. Odd, to say the least.

"Err America is down to ONE radio station LOL!"

Now, is that any way to be? Here are these poor morons people trying to go make a go of it with no inferior talent while having to pay their own way when everybody knows that the media is skewed to the right and is funded by big oil. Where's your compassion? Hehehe....

Was the 800+ thread pulled because it proved Seans point?

Frankly the thread was a complete embarrassment to FR.

Yeah, I caught a few minutes of the thread but didn't jump on. Reality is that FR is no place for the thin-skinned. I've been chewed up and spit out a few times but its part of the territory. I don't know much about the "good ol days" when it was a small group of Clinton slayers but I like to think that I'm a part of that somehow.

Sean is all right. I look forward to his radio show and stream it in sometimes and even try to tune it in after hours to get the delayed feed. Hope he keeps it up.

Indeed Free Republic is not for the thin of skin.

It's a very rough and tumble site with a lot of personal attack wolf packs.

Watch...

Count me in as a Hannity fan (as well as a Rush and Mark Levin/The Great One fan).

I've been really busy this week and missed Sean's show about "FReepers eating their own", and didn't get a good look at that pulled thread about Hannity. Can someone clue me in with the details of what Sean said on the air?

I have a hard time believing he is swearing off FR forever because of a few stupid comments directed at him...

I am not real sure, nutmeg. I couldn't believe it got to 800 posts, but I didn't read much of it. Meant to get back to it, and then it was gone. I gathered that there was an on-air reference to internecine warfare on the site, and some people leaving.

SSSSSSame here. With my new job I can't listen to Rush but get off in time to catch the second hour of Hannity on the way home. The first hour (or a best of) is replayed in the hour between Sean and Tony Snow. My radio shuts itself off after Tony when Alan Colmes comes on. Saw Sean in KC last year and his live show is awesome.

Why did Hannity insult freepers the other day on his radio show? Kinda bit the hand that fed him imo.

www.terrisfight.org (plug for Terri - she needs national grassroots help again).

I'm no talk show host or anything but I'VE PROBABLY BEEN FLAMED MORE THAN SEAN HANNITY here at Free Republic. If it's really bad, I hit the abuse button. Otherwise, I WEAR em down or ignore them. Now I'm glad I haven't purchased any of his books. He's too sensitive but he can dish it out.

There were over 600 threads dedicated to Terri Schindler-Schiavo who they were going to starve to death in October of 2003. There were over 80K posts and we're still trying to help Terri at www.terrisfight.org.

Sean Hannity needs to know that we are not even working on GOP campaigns because we're still helping Terri. The GOP isn't helping her and she's in dire straits again. Why doesn't Sean do a show about Terri again? HE NEEDS TO DO AN UPDATE on this very special Floridian while there's still TIME. She was not saved in the fall. They're about to try to starve her again!
