Rude Democrat Peter Johnson Jr. keeps cutting off Coulter in Hannity debate. On last night’s Hannity, the top story was a discussion of the insanely invasive TSA screening procedures, so what better guest to have on than Ann Coulter to tell it like it is? Her debate opponent? Democrat Peter Johnson Jr., a lawyer and a familiar face to anyone who’s been watching Fox News Channel for the longest time, seeing as how he’s been providing mostly legal analysis for the network since 1997. However, a funny thing occurred—as it does with all Democrats, it seems—when the debate about the TSA screening process inevitably turned to profiling Arabs and Muslims: Johnson Jr. turned into a hostile, rude and harassing aggressor, refusing to let Coulter get a word in as the "debate" progressed.

I saw this and am so glad you posted it. What was nauseating was how wimpy Sean Hannity did nothing to control Peter.
Makes you wonder if Hannity, perhaps the least talented debater on air, wanted Coulter, one of the most, to get taken down a notch. Just sayin...
We rarely watch Hannity, but happened to see Coulter as we scanned channels and usually enjoy her. However, this ugly little man kept shouting and interrupting her while Hannity sat there like a mute. We switched channels. If Fox keeps this up, they won’t top the ratings long.
When Britt Hume and his wife... who was News Director left... fox of old died.
LLS
Hannity does the same thing on his radio show to the point that I can’t stand to listen to him...Why didn’t he shut his mike off? The guy wouldn’t shut up...
This TSA thing is unreal.
I’m a physician. I suggest everyone read about these scanners. There is some evidence that they do disrupt your DNA. Maybe they don’t, but I’m not chancing it. I went through one of those a couple weeks ago, and afterwards the guy still pats me down with the back of his hand.
I will NOT go through those scanners again.
This is totally rediculous. Have you ever traveled to Europe? They’re watching you from the time you check your bags....
They have you profiled.
Midway airport in Chicago is the worst of them all. It will take one hour to go through security on a light day.
They have the technology to scan our eyes....why not issue frequent safe travelers a prescreened security pass. You simply go through an eye check that verifies who you are and your background?
We are no safer now than we were ten years ago.
Britt Hume has left Fox?
I listened to Hannity a few times on the radio. When he got an intelligent caller from the left most times he seemed to aggressively miss the point and always came off sounding dense and unable to understand just what the caller was saying. I could not listen to him continually being bested by leftist callers, not because they had better logic, but because Hannity always missed the point.
Ridiculous.
No, I thinks it’s the case that he stepped down from Chief of the Washington news bureau. He also gave up his chair on the 6:00 report, turning it over to Brett Baier. He still contributes to Fox but I think he’s moved into semi-retirement.
What is rediculous, my idea?
I didn’t know this character’s name, but he has been instant mute button material for years, as he was last night. Caught enough of it listening to Coulter to know what was going on, and he was a total jerk and smart ass. Stop listening to any of it about half way through.
He was DISGUSTING!!! Positively VILE!! I will NEVER watch FOX while he is on again....NEVER! AQnd Sean should have shut him up while Ann was talking!
Got you. I tend to agree, but you can’t get an intelligent debate on that show sometimes.
Kristin Powers is the world’s worse though esp when she happens to be hosting.
I’m traveling early on Thanksgiving Week, but I expect to be going thru security Atlanta early and delays. I plan NOT to go thru the scanners. I believe I have that right.
Has anyone opted out of being scanned? If so, what happened?
I saw it. It was horrible. All Hannity had to do was say, “please stop”.
Hannity has made several apologetic statements about the TSA policy. To me, the guy frequently places himself on the wrong side of the establishment vs. the people battle.
In addition to Johnson being flat-out rude (when the right buttons are pressed, liberal pukes ALWAYS show their true colors) I just couldn’t wrap my brain around the way the guy is thinking.
It’s not only okay for kids, women and innocent people to be felt up by whoever the Government says (and seemingly fined $11,000 if you decline to agree), this nimrod is firmly convinced this is a GOOD thing.
We truly live in two Americas... and one of them has completely lost touch with reality.
Because the point of it is humiliation and to get the population used to that kind of government treatment. It also effectively trashes certain provisions of the Constitution will be expanded to the general population with aggressive molestation at random roadblocks and such in due time. These machines are apparently already showing up in courthouses. They will come to schools eventually. This is a totalitarian society's response to foreign threat. Israel's response is aimed at safety for flying. The American approach is aimed at humiliating and intimidating the population. It is NOT designed to catch terrorists. That is only the excuse. Consider that burka clad presumed women are apparently exempt- Napolitano refused to answer a question about that. One can hide a lot of ordnance under a burka. Actually It would be advantageous to the government if a bomb got by TSA (perhaps in a burka) and dropped a plane. That would ramp up the TSA/SS/KGB approach tremendously.
Netjets. Hannity has already mentioned that private option. He may not have Rush’s fleeet of jets, but it seems he does fly private carrier.
Many in the paid class of talkers and commentators seem to take the “Let them eat cake,” that being the cake of indecency, indignity and debasement, and for we have not any due of the bread of decency and respect in their eyes, viewing us from their lofty eyres.
I said the same thing back during the first Gulf War. I was flying commercial several times a week back then. The big security illusion back then was checking your bomb, er, uh, I mean bag at the curb.
The latest rage amongst mooselimb suicide bombers is to insert the bomb into the anal orifice. This was already done in Saudi recently. These full body scanners won't detect bombs inside the body. "Anal bombs" are what is coming, but the TSA is insistent on spending tens of millions of dollars on these full body scanners (thanks to Skeletor, AKA Chertoff who now represents the company who manufactures them).
If you want to see how real security is supposed to be done, not a security illusion like we get from our glorious TSA, travel to Israel.
In the immortal words of little Tommy Daschle "You can't professionalize unless you Federalize!"
I won’t watch any program that has him on, it was disgusting and the little worm thought he was being so cute. Hannity allowed it, that was even more disgusting and I’m not a Hannity basher. I was very surprised to see how little he can control his own program.
