This shocked me. I've heard Hannity in the past speak highly of us. I wonder what's gotten into him?bad shrimp inside and a big head outside

There is nothing wrong with diversity of opinions.Not at all. However, Sean's observation is that this is happening less and less on FreeRepublic. When he said that some FReepers have gotten so that they, "even eat their own" I think he has a valid point. I've seen it happen.

"...we were USED to get conservatives elected, and now we're being dropped like hot potatoes." Based on a single self-serving comment from Hannity?! Nawww...even if they wanted to jettison us, which I doubt, I don't think they could pull it off. FReepers are here to stay!!

What a great paragraph..
"Environmentalists also have argued that since the United States is the largest emitter of CO2, the greenhouse gas of primary concern, it should take the lead in reducing emissions of greenhouse gases. Unfortunately for their argument, it turns out that the U.S. is in fact a leading "air filter." According to an October 16, 1998, article in Science, North America removes more carbon (about 2 billion tons) from the atmosphere than it emits (1.5 billion tons) each year. One reason is the tremendous regrowth in the eastern U.S. of forests that act as carbon sinks, removing CO2 from the atmosphere."
Thanks again.

If Sean has not listened for two years, how would he know what is going on here?
Just because there is some who do not agree with me, doesn't keep me from having my say.
For the most part I find that when people here are proved wrong they are just as quick to apologize.

Thanks for pointing that out. Some FReepers did the same thing to Rush as they are now doing to Sean.
Thereby, making Sean's point valid, IMO.
p.s. I am not saying that people cannot express their displeasure at his comments. I'm just saying, "why are so many turning on Sean (attacking) because he made a valid observation about some FReepers?"

Dont forget, when Hillary was just toying with the idea of running for the Senate, Hannity claimed HE would be in the front lines protesting her, following her around, making sure the world knew who she was and what she was up to.
Hannity NEVER once showed up for the Freeps we did of Hillary.
Not One!

To: cicero's_son
But we're not. 99.99% of the literature on "global warming" is no more scientific or valid than early 20th century theories on physiognomy. It is a pseudo-science in the service of a political ideology. Cicero, I think you've got your mind set on an opinion, serviced to your own political ideology, and nothing is going to change it, not even mounds of data. I am an engineer so I do know about science, I am fluent in the logistics of data collection, and what I'm seeing does indeed point to the consensus conclusion. If you're not willing to take the conclusion of a metereologist (and one of our own at that), we're just going to have to leave it at that.
To: 1Old Pro
Hannity is wrong, yes there are threads that get a bit nasty, but there are many more threads that have great discussions and threads with lighthearted fun. Also, if you ask for advice on non-political issues, freepers are very generous with their help.
The problem with Hannity which has been well documented on this thread, is that his show just isn't that good, especially after listening to other talk shows during the day. He completely lost it on election day, believing the exit polls, he should have known better. Personally, I enjoy listening to Bill Bennett, Laura Ingraham and Hugh Hewitt.
To: beyond the sea
Several months ago I ripped into someone here for dissing Sean. I spent a considerable amount of my valuable time defending Sean on that thread because I respected him and thought he deserved better. Never again. And whoever that FReeper was I dissed, I send my most sincere apology. I accept your apology.
You wouldn't happen to know where I can find that, do you? A keyword, maybe? I can't find it. Do you remember how long ago that was? I would estimate about 6 months, but that's just a guess. Was Sean the main topic of the thread?
To: Broker
Hannity's summary of how we degrade, belittle and ridicule each other has been my experience too. Ahhhh grasshoppa.....the Left has effectively used ridicule against conservatives for decades (entertainment industry, academia, etc.,).
Don't slight the power of ridicule.....we conservatives may be slow to catch up, but when we do.....look out. Its a powerful tool I don't want to leave out of my kit.

Hey bts...how do you come down on this Hannity thing?? Well, I think his little display yesterday showed me something I really did not expect from him. It was SMALL, if you know what I mean. It was catty, and served him poorly.
I can't listen to him for more than about ten minutes because of his nasal voice and relatively vacant mind, but I do understand that he was a substantial help getting G.W. elected.
No matter though, yesterday he made clear a petty side of himself that some had not seen so clearly before.

By the way, Sean comparing his level of thinking and his new "board" to FR is like a utility player for the early '60's Mets comparing his baseball skills to Ted Williams in his prime!

Ditto to your observation.
I acknowledge his help in the election but can't watch him and the skull for more than a quick drive by clicking.
