Sorry, I disagree, I believe it can be very constructive.... if the person can assimilate the suggestion.
Pointing out that someone may come off as self-righteous may be hard to take, but nevertheless it can be true. Let me honestly ask you, have you ever found it harder to listen to a person's argument or point of view when they came off as self-righteous and all-knowing? Yes? There is a natural tendency to pull away from a seemingly arrogant person.
Sean is in the business to influence people over to our side. It is important that he do it well. Being seen as sanctimonious does not help to influence people. In fact it works in the directly opposite way. Imo, we can not afford our "spokesmen" to come off that way........ especially with Hillary hanging around the corner.
Is anything funnier than Sean remarking on his own humility.

I don't get it. You say it's important to come off the right way. Sorry, Rush comes off as arrogant, Hannity does not, whether either of them means it or not. And if you can't tell that for sure, look at the liberal reaction to them. Rush has been and is consistently attacked as a jerk; why is he the 1 that still gets all the attention by Joe Schmoe Lib? Cuz his personality extra irritates them. Hannity only somewhat gets such reactions by libs (that surely is mostly accounted for the fact there're ALWAYS going to be complaints by the enemy just cuz they disagree).
