Wasn’t it Sean who was stealing his audio soundbites, where Rush had his staff insert watermarks of cuckoo clocks and Ted Kennedy yelping “Hello?!” in the background a few years ago? Rush never said who was stealing his material but he said it was a nationally syndicated host that followed him.
The author of the song (don't recall her name, not Martina singing it) has said it is a pro-choice song, the independence of women from all men because she can choose to remove evidence of him, re: the child she carries, from her womb.
It has nothing to do with American Freedom (and the "roll the stone away" line is outrageously insulting to boot). She was one of the libs all incensed during the 2008 campaign when the McCain/Palin people played it at their rallies. It's not in any way about American Freedom, that Hannity continues to use it shows he knows nothing about the song as well.
And every time Sean plays it, she donates the royalties to Planned Parenthood.
You are absolutely correct. I get to catch Bob on Sundays-12 to 2pm. As Mark Levin says, “Bob, you are the Great One” and that clip is played on WABC, I think at the beginning of Grant’s show.
Martina McBride and the song is about spousal abuse.

Thanks for posting.
Then actually it should be Rush's theme song. (sorry, couldn't help it). I've been divorced twice, so I shouldn't talk, but have learned enough not to do it again. I make bad choices in that department. Now I'm talking about my self, more like Hannity. I can't win.
LOL. Well, many of us are guilty of bad choices. I’ve made a few of them, none of them involved getting married. :)
A lot of people on this forum over the years took Hillary Clinton to task for saying “you know” regularly. Take a few minutes and count how many times Sean says “you know” in a 2-minute period. And he is literally driving me bonkers by his continual use of “literally.”
none of them involved getting married.
I checked it out to hear an account of the Rush wedding. After a minute I turned it off because it was all about Hannity.
“I guess that makes you a great American...”
LOL.
That’s probably the one thing I enjoy about listening to Hannity. Every time someone says “you’re a great American” he parrots them and responds “you’re a great American” like a trained Rat. Weird.
FOTFLOL
It's not my music, I've never heard the whole song so if it's about divorce, same insult with the "roll the stone away" line -- that analogy is outrageous to use in that instance as well.
Thank you!
“”I checked it out to hear an account of the Rush wedding. After a minute I turned it off because it was all about Hannity.””
Same here...did he ever discuss the wedding? Couldn’t stand to watch more than 3 minutes of it. I hate rambling and that’s what it was...
Not quite, he song is about domestic abuse sung from a little girl's viewpoint. Here's two lines from the song:
"She tried to pretend he wasn't drinkin' again, but daddy left the proof on her cheek
I was only eight years old that summer, and I always seemed to be in the way"
The mother resolves the abuse by burning up their house, killing both the abuser and herself and making the girl an orphan:
"Well she lit up the sky that fourth of July
By the time that the fire men come
They just put out the flames and took down some names
Sent me to the county home"
Just one more example of endlessly depressing, mind messing country music. I don't know why Hannity uses it. Except maybe it just sounds good until you look at the whole song. Ditto for "Born on the 4th of July" by Springsteen.
