Perhaps you might want to thae a few minutes to compose your thoughts so you can explain coherently what this is all about.

I'm just as coherent. I heard the "tail" end of a response from one of the swifties on Hannity tell of being a Freeper and apologize for something.

I need details.

nope, I'm sure you're smart enough to figure it out.

One of the co-authors of "Unfit for Command" is a Freeper. He made a post...supposedly as a satire...where he made some remarks he now regrets. References to "ragheads", saying disparaging things about Islam, and an un-funny (by his own admission) Catholic joke were part of it.

The left is now trying to nail him on it.

I'm willing to forgive him.

Jerome R. Corsi is/was an active Freeper who used some questionable terms for Arabs and had some harsh words about Clinton and Kerry. IMHO, they were rather benign, but they were taken out of context in order to keep the character assasination machine alive.

Frankly, I don't think he has anything to apologize for, nor do I think it is relevent to the discussion of Kerry's service, but whatever.

Look here for more details.

Let's take it one step at a time.
 
I arrived home from work and put the TV and radio on, not paying attention, (listening with half an ear) to either while looking at my mail.
 
I heard Free Republic Mentioned, my radar went up.
 
then
I heard a man talking, not Sean, his guest
 
This man stated that he made comments on the Free Republic using a pseudonym,  quidnunc is a pseudonym and isn't your real name, right??
 
Sean didn't ask his freeper name when I began to listen, maybe it was mentioned, maybe it wasn't, I just don't know.
 
Sean asked a few more questions, then went on commercial,
 
after the commercial Sean announced the names of his two guests, John O'Neill and Jerome Corsi and the title of the book, no more mention of the FR
 
Now I know the names and the title of the book.

I posted the thread in breaking news

 
Herein lies the problem, since I turned on the show in the middle of the interview, I don't know which of the two men were talking about the free republic, sorry about that.
 
I still don't know which one of the two guests was the one who said he was a freeper since I turned on the show in the middle of the interview. 
 
I hope this helps, if it doesn't, don't worry about it.
 
Now the title of the thread is: 
 
Freeper/Author   apologizes for comments made on the FR while on Sean Hannity Radio Show,

 

So now we know a number of things:

 

1. The Sean Hannity Radio Show is on air

2. Sean is interviewing an Author who is also a Freeper and this freeper  apologized for making comments on the FR

He is on Now:

This means that  the author "he"  is on the air now since Sean's Show is a 3-hr. show and who else would be on?  I could have written "the author is on now instead of using the pronoun "he"
John E. O'Neill & Jerome R. Corsi
    
         Now we know who "he" is, it's either John or Jerome and one  of  them is the freeper/author who apologized for making "rag head" and other remarks.
 

"Used pseudonym on the FR, called Muslims Rag Heads and apologized after the left found out that he's an author. He said his comments made on the FR were just jokes and the left should calm down. "

 

     This should be self-explanatory, the author/freeper didn't use his real name on the FR, he called Muslims "rag heads" (tongue in cheek) using his fake name on the FR and is now apologizing to the public, (on air on the Sean Hannity Radio show),  for doing so and said he was just joking around.
 

This is all I heard since I just turned on the Radio in the middle of the program and didn't hear the introduction.

 and what I had explained in the post was what  I heard and if you wanted to hear more of the interview all you had to do was click on the link I provided.

Hope this explains my incoherency.  Sorry for the confusion.
