I guess that would include one of Sean's "dearest, best friends", TONY SNOW, who posts here frequently, and posted the sad news about his being diagnosed with Colon cancer right here on FR yesterday.

This is Sean promoting Sean... what else is new?, except this time, I think he has gone over the line.

Time to get the dirt out on Mr Hannity !!!

[506trooper]

Dang! Had a Dr's appointment and this puppy doubled in size in the time I was gone.

Since we're all on someone else's fringe, someone tell me if I have to move right, left or stay where I was in order to fit in.

Just kidding, I can find "any key" on my own.

[plewis1250]

Let me tell you... I used to think he was an alright fella... This... this is the last straw... I couldn't stand his radio show (he likes to cut people off) and his TV show he is almost as bad. I hope he takes the ultimate in FLAK for this betrayal... Sean... we'll miss ya ma- no we won't... hasta la vista... baby....

About this thread, Ben Stein would say:

Wow.

First, it was buy my books. Then it was "all of these liberals are my friends". Now it's come to MY website. Egotisical jacka$$,

Sean knows that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

Not only did he plug his own version of FR, but he promoted FreeRepublic.com as well. Rush does the same thing occasionally. I'll bet that FR's hit counter goes through the roof today and we gain quite a few new FReepers and lurkers from Hanity's backhanded plug.

That said, there is some truth in Sean's criticism of FR. As we've grown, the bomb-throwers, trolls and hair-trigger moderators have made FR a less friendly place for infrequent users and lurkers.

The shear volume of posts and the quirky navigation structure makes it a challenge for beginning FReepers to enjoy FR the way veteran FReepers take for granted.

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery and FR has been "faltered" by some of the bests (Drudge, Rush, Lucianne/Trixie, Mike Reagan, Savage, etc.) when they think they can do it better. Those of us that stick around despite the occasional rough edge, know that FR is in a class by itself and is unlikely to be overshadowed by any of it's "bastich" children. ;)

Hannity bashes Free Republic

Well I guess I'm going to have to email FOX and ask that they change the show to "Buchanan and Colmes"

[Aarchaeus]

So? Seems like a pretty good fringe to me.

Sean has become to taken with himself...I stopped watching or listening some time back.

[Virginia Queen]

Actually, Sean has never been and will never be in the same class as Rush or Tony Snow. I heard Mark Levin on Rush today - talking about his book and it is amazing how much more he could say than he did on Sean's show the other day. Sean never shuts up, and the same phrases keep coming out of his mouth over and over again. Many days I have to shut him off; other days he is okay. I was really insulted by his comments today. My intuition tells me that his was the voice of someone who's feelings had been hurt by something he read at this site. If there was some way I could prove it, I would make a bet on it. So instead of remaining, he took his little red wagon and went home.

Bump!

[chemical_boy]

I have a PHd. in Chemistry...yup i'm from the fringe

[ChicagoRighty]

WOW! What a mistake!

[DoctorMichael]

What did Hannity say exactly? I was busy at the time and away from my office radio so I have no idea what happened.

Is there a transcript? Tape?

Franken: USO tour in Iraq 'very moving'

Al Franken has been to Iraq, has Hannity?

[handk]

Hannity is a shill and a liar. Once he had a caller on his radio show, very articulate, who wanted to discuss an organization known as "People for a New American Century" (pnac.org).

Hannity accused the caller of being a "right-wing conspiracy nut" and "there is no such organization"; at which point the caller was cut off.

Hannity flat out knew he was lying because William Kristol is the President of PNAC! How could Hannity not know that PNAC is real?

Furthermore, if you visit their web site and check out the governing members, it's a lot of people nationally known, people (talking heads) who are favorites on the various news programs.

Hannity is phony and duplicitous.
