The Hannity/father/daughter debate is just awful. A meeting of the minds it ain't.
Listen to Michael Medved a mush more intelligent national talk show host who is on live from noon til 3:00 pm pacific time.
I was positive this was another "Air America" thread, although, whittling down only one bad moment since its inception would have been a behemoth task to undertake.
Someone would actually have to tune in for it to be considered 'radio'.
So, let me get this straight.
If a tree falls in the forest and Al Franken talks about it on Air America, does it make a sound?
Fortunately, I only heard some of it...enough to know that she sounded like a fascist ;-)
They even got Noam Chomsky name involved, and I doubt either has ever read more than a few lines of his writings.
Hannity had a set answer to all the points within his debate range. Chomsky is a commie jerk but Sean Hannity isn't well read enough to debate his writings.
I laughed today when Sean tried to list some of the history books he's read. He couldn't remember the name and/or author of most of them; those he could remember sounded as if they written for seventh graders.
That conversation started yesterday, of course, when a lady asked Sean to list some of the books he consulted while writing "Deliver us from Hannity." He couldn't name a single title.
Please, Sean push the mute button when she starts to screech!
I started reading that book, and never finished it. It was so obviously ghostwritten that it wasn't even funny. The least he could have done was hire a writer who would try to sound like him. No dice.
"I couldn't understand why Sean would give her all the air time he did."
That is always the problem with Sean, he gives over his air time to the most abysmall (sp?) people, and most of the time they don't even make for good radio.
I like Sean Hannity, how can I not like him? He's a loud-mouthed Irish-american from Franklin Square, he's like my home-boy. And he is pretty well educated, he often talks about going to the Seminary HS (whatever one it is, but my Presbyterian hubby from New Hyde Park knows it), and you can tell he's got a good, astute, Catholic education on many subjects. And his book is, or appears to be, judging it just by opening the covers, a REAL book. It might be bad, but at least it's real. No HUGE print, no WIDELY SPACED paragraphs to fill up space. NO PICTURES!
But I think Sean is a wee bit to enamoured of himself. On the other hand, I don't think the whole right-wing can be comprised of "intellectuals". So Sean should talk more, and let the left-wing idiots seek another venue.
