Hannity is a self-loving blow-hard. He just adored himself, and adores being adored. And sometimes he does a poor job with smart liberal interviewees. (Robert Reich has embarassed Sean on occasion, and a smarter host could have handled it.)

Sean is more pretty-boy than brilliant.

O'Reilly is obsessed with teen sex, and is not a conservative (he will jump for populist big-government plans when they appeal to him.

Hannity is most like a politician, Savage is least.

Basically, Sean is a Bush-bot of the worst order.

And that's why he can't handle the criticism he sometimes gets on FR. .....his skin is way too thin, his ego way too fragile.

Right on, Hannity just keeps going over the same talking points over and over with seemingly no thought behind them. Compare anybobody to Colmes and they come out brilliant. What tips me off on his intelligence, or lack of it, is the lack of presence of any noticeable sense of humor or irony in his schtick, let alone satire. He gets kind of grating from time to time and ALWAYS will argue any point with a lib, even those points which are patently untrue spin and only designed to get the conservative debater off point. He seems to fall for this too often.

O'reilly is just a joke. I actually find myself rooting even for some libs when they pop his ego bubble on the air. He doesn't do enough research on his conservative positions and makes it an embarrasment to even be associated with him. He's just too full of himself and not really a champion of any issue anymore. His respect for people is more based on whether his targets agree to appear on his show rather than the character of those he interviews. His constant praise of the integrity of Charles Rangall sticks out in my head.

Those who have seen Hannity in person would not agree with you.

Savage is just that: savage! If you like that style.

"Hannity is self-loving..." I agree. He, more and more, on his radio show, whenever possible, if he can slip it in, when the situation warrants (and even when it doesn't!) always manages to bring the discussion, topic etc. back to himself...I find it very tiresome. He usually couches it in some kind of humorous, self-deprecating way but, no matter, the purpose is the same: Sean, Sean, me-me-me.
I see lots of personal faults along these same lines with Rush, too. I still am a pretty dedicated listener to both tho'.
My current fav's: Laura and Michael Medved
Would really like to hear Mark Levin's show--sounds like my cup of tea. No fuss-no muss straigtforward political talk.
