Rush went to Afghanistan for a few days back in February. Sean hasn't gone overseas yet, but this coming Friday July 8th he is holding his third annual Freedom Concert at Six Flags in Jackson, NJ. The proceeds goto fund college scholarships for the children of our fallen men and women of the Aarmed forces since 9/11. This event is in concert with the Freedom Alliance.
I stand corrected (about Rush anyway). I agree that what Hannity is doing is a good cause, but he'd have more credibility with me if he did something which required him to put his a$$ in danger, like the troops are. It's easy to be pro war from a tv/radio station thousands of miles away from the war zone. He should do his show from the green zone for a month if he wants to show support for the troops.
/end rant, I just hate armchair quarterbacks
----------------------------------------------
Here's the crux of the problem many of us have with Hannity. His act relies on his "You're a Great American" flag waving, chest thumping super-patriotism...and his condemnation of anyone on the left as being anti-American....but he never puts any skin in the game. Say what you will about franklin and some of his cronies, at least they've been there. That may be all there is to respect about them but it's no small thing.
Hannity's annual concert is a good thing but he benefits as well and gets to talk himself up about it for weeks.
Besides, your statement that he hasn't gone overseas "yet" indicates that you know of some plan that he has to do so, do you? What is he waiting for? The war is in its fourth year.
Hannity needs to go to visit the troops in Iraq. He needs to live up to his "Your a great American" mantra. Savage needs to go over to Iraq also.
Less talk, Mo Walk.
