Keep up the good work Sean!
If you're taking flak, you're over the target!
Bombs away!
No, he did not; in fact, he made it worse.
I don't know where he went. No one else seems to know either. He used to be here all the time, or so it seemed. I liked his posts and agreed with most of them.
"That says more about Sean's inability to handle criticism than it does FR. Hannity acts like an internet noob. Yeah it gets crazy in here but don't cry about it."

I have never seen hannity actually debate some of the more intelligent, better spoken, prepared liberal commentators (i.e. al franken) so I've never really considered him to be the most professional.
I might be wrong, but I think he might be gone because of the breathtaking comments about FR in general, and JR in particular, he used to post on other forums. Really ugly stuff. I'd have banned him a lot faster than Jim did. Jim has a lot more patience than I have.
His immigration stuff was great. I didn't agree with all of it, but he truly knew a lot about the problem.
I was referring to people more along the lines of "Sabertooth", who are always prepared to debate in a thoughtful, temperate manner, even if their views contradict the prevailing sentiment among a majority of FReepers on a given subject.
A few months after "KangarooJacqui", in fact.
Sorry, just trying to help.
bttt
The comment wasn't intended to be "original" and I don't even claim credit for the original barb. Whether it was funny to you, then or now, is really irrelevant because I didn't write it with you in mind. What is apparent, however, is that some people here are wound really tight. Take a deep breath, count to ten slowly, and ask yourself, "Is this really something that I need to blow a gasket over?"
There are never any good ideas for solving the immigration problem, just the same, circular flame wars. I avoid immigration threads entirely now. It just seems too much like sticking your hand into a fire.
No good deed goes unpunished, old friend/foe.
I'm that way with the Creationis vs Evolutionist threads. No win, so why bother?
Thanks. Is Jim saying that Sean's comments caused the traffic at FR to go up? Like I said, I am slow witted today. Robitussin is good for a cold and bad for the brain.
Same here...Some don't understand the complexity of the situation...IE: How many lawyers, judges, time it would take for all the due processes to send ALL the illegals home.
Staying away is just easier....Not that I don't have a personal opinion how it should be handled.
I signed up over at his site, just to see what they were saying, using a different name, than I do here. I just used a throw-away address site to get a name, and then was able to get an account. None of the posts are mine; because I just wanted to lurk. While lurking.........

we had quite a large number of freepers register here today...
I also noticed in reading some of the posts at the freepers site that they acknowledge that the site is much improved over what it used to be....they are not discounting Sean's comments about how it was.
That's called working together. The goal of FreeRepublic and their members, Sean Hannity and like-minded Hannity Forums members is essentially the same. Add to that Rush, Bill Bennett, Laura Ingraham, Hugh Hewitt, Michael Medved and so many other outstanding national and local conservative talk show hosts across this country, the blogosphere (Malkin, Powerline, etc.), Drudge, Fox News.... it's going to take a team effort by everyone in this all out war to preserve freedom and liberty in America.

Just look at the usernames... I'm sure they wanted to cooperate with us... or would you want to cooperate with people like $@#@&$@&#&@! (citing the names would constitute contempt of host ) Laughing
