Sean Hannity and HIS ilk

[Andy from Atlanta]

Mike,
Could you enlighten us on how you feel about Mr. Hannity?

[B_Buster]

He's a jerkoff.

Some classic ballbusting of Hannity:

He's a jerkoff.

I'll second that.

I can't see how even political conservatives could like this guy.  He's just such a lummox.

I don't personally like Rush Limbaugh, but he is pretty quick.  Glenn Beck is apocalyptically insane, which is certainly interesting to some folks.  But Hannity's popularity, such as it is, I just don't get.

I just joined twitter!   Arrgh.

All I've read are posts about Hannity.

Is that all there is?

Hannity sucks all around but Glenn Beck is the guy that really makes me sick.  I think it's his ability to cry at will that really makes me hate him.  And the way he says complete fiction but couches it in "Why isn't anyone asking these hard questions??"  He comes across as genuinely unhinged.

My wife and I were at the movies and a commercial came on for a special viewing of 'The Christmas Sweater' (his Christmas themed one-man show or whatever) and I let out a loud, reflexive "Aww FUCK this guy!" right in the theater.  It was kind of embarrassing because I'm usually a pretty mellow and passive, but my hatred of this guy momentarily took hold and I just had to let it out.

I heard Jimmy Dore and some Beck scientist do a review of this performance on his KPFK show.

I understand there are a lot of bodily fluids involved.

Was that Comedy and Everything Else?  Their Beck take-downs, and general political material, are pretty good.

No!  I said his KPFK show.  It's tighter, funnier and shorter than Comedy etc.

No, it was the podcast of Dore's radio show.

Limbaugh is quick and has been around so long that most people have acknowledge that he is just a kind of obnoxious loud voice in the radio world. I know very few conservatives that take him seriously. Unfortunately, Limbaugh birthed Hannity. Hannity - unlike Limbaugh - attempts to portray himself as the ideal for the wholesome American man and by trying to present himself as the image of normal, he then tries to make everyone else look like a threat to wholesome Americans.

Then Beck hit the scene and now I don't even know what to do. That man is insane and people are buying it!
