The hit on Patriot Radio happened when OKC occurred. Mainstream folks started staying away in droves, since too many of those guys either had some sort of connection with the militias or were too sympathetic to McVey. McVey did more to hurt Patriot Radio than anything the MSM or Clinton could ever do.

I was just on the Hannity message board and it seems a big source for a lot of the problems is that TLBSHOW who was banned here is stirring up a lot of anti-FR trouble.

"Free Republic is childish. Come to MY board instead".

ROFL!!!
I haven't posted on his board in months. If FR is childish, Hannity's board is infantile!

I would like to officially ZOT this thread. The DUmbasses are having too much fun watching us. They are jumping to all the typical BS conclusions.

"Actually ALOT of what Hannity said is true. Alot of that stuff does go on around here.

Like the idiotic arguement over Sponge Bob, Kid Rock, Sean Hannity..."

Fair enough, and I agree. We will have a share of that being there are so many of us here. It's not a big problem though.

But he didn't have to go and eat his young.

Fine, but he's a big boy and should know that not every kook-ball who identifies as a Freeper and emails him with some policy position from Mars is a reason for "signing off" of the best conservative political community on the internet.

I can't wait until he starts to get the kooks on his site.

Thank you, mw.

I would honestly like for Sean to elaborate on his comments. Maybe he will, I hope.

He is a total intellectual lightweight. Can't win a single argument with a liberal on any topic. He ends up getting nasty, petty, and personal, which only makes conservatives look bad.



I completely agree with you. I end up changing the channel when he attacks his guests- TV or radio. I'm honestly ashamed he is a spokesman for conservatives/Republicans. I've tried for years to be a fan of his- but when push comes to shove- Rush is the best, hands down.

THE TEN DEADLY SINS

First, I heard every word uttered by Hannity this afternoon.

Second, the quotes commented here by freeper listerners are NOT taken out of context.

Third, Hannity did NOT "mis-speak". He was primed for this, his rant came out easily, and his criticisms sounded carefully thought out and semi-rehearsed.

Fourth, we're accused of "eating our own" while he's eating us.

Fifth, we are considered "childish" while he verbally cavorts with Flipper and the breathless young married women phoning his show. Probably a good 75% of his actual radio show is immature fluff instead of what conservatives tune into him for.

Sixth, his diatribe was NOT a "cheap shot". It was an expensive shot, carefully calculated and contrived to turn conservative folks away from our site and turn to his commercial site instead.

Seventh, he DID hurt FR in spite of comments to the contrary. This show went out all over the country and harmed our reputation. From now on, Hannity's comments will be quoted and re-quoted by those saying in one version or another, "FR is so bad, even Hannity won't read its forum". The evil that people say lives on after them.

Eighth, Sean doesn't like our "petty squabbling". Our major squabbling must really do him in. What does he want, an Elsie Dinsmore/Casper Milquetoast forum? Everyone agreeing with everyone else?

Ninth, if we are "fringe", why does he consistently give mouth time to the Rangels and Lanny Davis's of this country. If they are not leftist fringies, I don't know who is. These propagandists become more "well-known" and humanized, thanks to Sean and his proclivity for booking questionable guests. Not only that, he calls them his dear friends, kisses their fannies, and invites them back again....and again....and again. A liberal guest now and then is no big deal, but Sean goes over the edge. Let these lefties, socialists, anti-American and anti-war guests go beg Err American to book them so they can spread their agit/prop to the gullible listening to that network.

Tenth, in a real Clintonian tactic, Sean tries to hedge his carefully calculated slams by stating he meets "some" good freepers at his concerts and book signings. I guess the good ones are the ones attending his commercial events. The rest are chopped liver.

Sean has lost me until he publicly apologizes to JimRob and the people on this forum.

Frankly, he disgusted me beyond belief today.

Hannity isn't good enough to handle a three hour show. Doesn't cover enough material. Same for Savage. Listen to 15 minutes of either show and you've heard it all.

If Vannity really wants to see some fringe activity, he should go lurk on Usenet for a while, then come back here. He might have a more reasonable opinion then.
