I'm not the biggest Hannity fan, but what he just did to Paul Begala was a work of art.
Begala started off with his "Bush is a liar" rhetoric, and Hannity read him a bunch of quotes, to which Begala said were lies, lies, lies.
Then, Hannity told him the truth, that all the quotes came from John Kerry, not George Bush.
Begala was caught so read handed, that he actually said that Kerry's mistake was in believing Bush's lies. Then he tried to attack Hannity for inviting him on his show and lying to him.
I have to give it to Sean Hannity this time, he made Begala look like a blithering idiot.
Fine, but I never said that. I say Hannity is a pussy for turning down a ride with the Blue Angels. That is the beginning and the end of my problem with him.
You will need to reconsider your opinion of Hannity."
For some, Hannity can't win.
The guy hammers away 24/7, the Left hates him, but yet he never accumulates quite enough "style-points" for the intellectual "elites" at FR.
No, I don't dislike Hannity for his commentes about Freepers. I'm sure that some of them are well deserved. Heck, I don't dislike Hannity. Like I said, I think he's a nice, sincere, honest, and good guy. But all too often when he debates liberals, I think he fails to address their points and I come away from the encounter with the feeling that he got his clock cleaned by the other side. That said, I think he's a great interviewer. I simply thing he's a poor debater when he's up against a clever opponent. Your experiences listening to him may be different but that's been my experience. And for the record, I think Rush Limbaugh sometimes has the same problem with callers. I think Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, and a handful of other talk show hosts are much sharper when debating with callers and guests.
Why not?
Well put. Thanks
Ok I will allow Star Trek conventions but Comic Book shows are out!
Darn it. I meet a lot of interesting people there and a few of them even talk. lol
No way, most of the time they just look at their feet as they shuffle along.
Ok, how much time did you waste playing D&D?
Probably right. I always considered Hannity talk radio "training wheels". New conservatives should listen to him for a few months, and then graduate to Medved.
Never got into that. I was too busy with Everquest (spelling?)
Well, gee, why watch it then?
Do you have to like every conservative, agree with every move they make in order for them not to get derided by you?
Just let us know and let Fox know WHO you like, and get your views of how you want all airings to be handled. Gee, maybe we should just let you do the work too, get on the air, research, advertise, travel to events, organize events, line up guests, interview, and debate them and, of course, keep the ratings up same as the no-good Sean and Bill do.
What other talk show hosts meet your acceptance criteria?
Everclear MMmmm
Heck, I didn't know what it was. I just heard someone mention it. lol
