On Hannity just now, Ed Rendell said he was in talks with Rahm Emanuel about wanting Sestak not to run against Specter. Hannity cut him off while he was in the process of admitting another job offer to someone against Santorum. I can't believe Sean would just cut him off like that. Oops!
He acts ugly. I can’t listen to him anymore either. You’re saying why can’t we be better...do you even LISTEN to Hannity?
Sean got his start by filling in for Rush many years ago.
His Great Great panel went off the rails tonight, I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.
Say “oops upside your head, say oops upside your head!!:
Sean doesn’t listen to any answers to his questions
Agree. I find him most annoying. He’s like a yap dog that goes on and on about the same thing.
He’ll still be focused on Bill Ayers and rev. Wright in 2016. Sean doesn’t seem to realize that didn’t keep voters from voting for hussein obama last time so maybe he needs to find something else.
If anyone can wear out a dead horse, it’s sean.
Now Rush. I love him. He’s original and he’s a real thinker.
Rendell is just a good soldier saying what he is told to say, no matter how stupid it sounds.
Unfortunately, I can. He has the same urges to make the conversation about him that BOR does, but not near as bad. That jumping in just as a lib is exposing themselves as a fraud is annoying - you can see it coming, and then...splatt! They give the rat time to think.
There's good reasons for the saying "He who talks last loses"
Rarely listen to Sean, although early on I attended one of his appearances in Cincinnati. Sean is essentially a Johnny one note ... it's the same thing over & over & over again. What's more, at least the last time I spent a few minutes listening to him ... he sounds bored with his gig ... frankly, I think he should hang it up ... he hasn't had an original thought in years.
I can’t believe Sean WOULDN’T cut someone off. He does it constantly. I love his politics but can’t stand to watch his show or listen to the radio program.
This with Rendell just proves that he’s never listening to the other person. While the other person is speaking he’s thinking about what he wants to say.
I agree. I also notice that Sean will go just so far, but not far enough to REALLY get into the truth. He is what I call one of the “opposition control” media folks. Say enough to keep the conservatives happy, but not too much to let them know the WHOLE truth.
I listen to Medved if anything during that time slot, but no one does it better than Rush.
i agree about hard to listen to
sean hannity. i’ve been complaining about him for a few years. when i listen to him it just seems like he’s been briefed on the talking points of the day. and it kills me when i hear people say he should run for president. i actually believe that at certain times in his career, sean was delusional enough about his tv persona power that he though he could actually be president. But there is something even more mysterious to me about sean....glenn beck has never been on his show, glenn beck’s name has never been mentioned on hannity’s show, and glenn beck never mentions hannity. i have a feeling there is some bad blood there since the time beck joined fox news-—maybe about time slots?
I listen to Rush, Levin, and Beck.
“Hannity just parrots the same 5 talking points over and over. Squawk! Your a great American! Ruth Criss Steakhouse”
and....the great great great american panel, and...”specificity”, and...let not your heart be troubled....blah, blah, blah. fox is going to have to do something about him soon because he’s a turn off
yes, shep is ridiculous as well. i’m so sick of the nightly line up that i started watching hgtv and international home sales.
sean got his start riding the coat tails of newt. when he (sean) had his radio show in atlanta he became chummy with newt and one hand washed the other down here. then when newt became more powerful as speaker, it’s my opinion that he slipped at hint to fox and made sean a shoe in for the show. sean is definitely a celebrity groupie, i agree.
you got that right about blago being a serb. i’m a serb myself and not many people want to argue with me, however, i am a very nice person - but please don’t screw me over because serbs can be vicious, voracious and not afraid of much no matter what the consequences. i agree, blago is going to cook a vew gooses!
Probably had to get a book plug in before break.
you’re right! but what the heck ever happened to kim peterson? did he die from that prostate cancer or just move on? i can’t remember what his nickname was- remind me please
I'm just worn out with his interminable, long winded, overly detailed, wander down several irrelevant paths, laundry list litany of issues, let me play you a sound bite wind up to questions.
Then he doesn't even listen to the answer or adapt to new information or direction suggested by guest or caller. Just return to the same old tired soapbox lecture.
I appreciate what he has done for the conservative movement and don't begrudge his success. But, I find other TV and radio hosts much more interesting and informative. Greta is one that has recently surprised me after the "all Holloway all the time" period. She seems to ask truly well thought out, to the point questions relevant to the guest and circumstances and adapts to changes in the direction of the conversation. Some things that seem beyond Hannity's abilities or interests. It's a shame as he often gets truly interesting guests that I would love to hear their opinion on current topics... if they could get a word in edgewise.
But all criticism aside, sure beats the stenography pool of the MSM.
Ditto! And I don’t usually care what Sean thinks!
