Six Flags is hosting HANNITY.
I'll be calling the Six Flags organization to assure them that I will be taking my children to Cedar Point, King's Island, or ANY park that does not host broadcasts from Right Wing hate mongers.

Also, there is a charity giving scholarships to Iraq war soldiers orphans with a link and phone number (800-329-5454) on the Hannity site that needs to be reminded that when you lie down with dogs...

His poll right now:

Kerry: 69%
Bush: 29%

over 13,000 respondents.

2. Not quite
Tyler said that he will be going to Cedar Point or other parks, not Six Flags.

Btw, Cedar Point just bought Geauga Lake Amusement Park from Six Flags and will rename it Geauga Lake. Six Flags got nowhere when they bought Geauga Lake a few years ago.

9. OUTSTANDING!
I used to take the kids to Geauga Lake/Sea World and they loved it. Nice to know that they won't be part of the Six Frauds, I mean Six Flags organization anymore.

When they bought Geauga Lake it was like they imported every rude, nasty, wise mouthed little shit from the entire country to work there.

13. YAY!!!!!! Geauga Lake was an annual event for us.
One of my uncles was a UAW officer and they had an annual picnic there. It was the only time we could afford it as a family - (12 kids, Irish-Catholics)

5. Martina McBride and Darryl Worley to perform
Ollie North's charity but it actually sounds like a good cause......if you can disconnect why they are dying in the first place.

I wonder how many of the "Hannitized" will hear the "Independence Day" song but McBride that Hannity plays at the top of the hour and realize that it is about a woman getting out of an abusive relationship, yep he took that out of context too.

6. By boycotting the park, we'd fall right into
the trap they've set. See, this being a charity for the families of fallen soldiers, it'd be 'unpatriotic' to oppose. A dignified silence would probably do.
But I'd like to see how much of Hannity's books proceeds go to similar charities.

11. I disagree, silence has gotten
us into this mess. They haven't set a trap and Fearing to take a stand is why we are in this mess. Stand Up! There's nothing dignified about continuing to let the Right get away with their brainwashing, propaganda, and outright lying.

It's possible to protest and still donate to a charity that helps fallen soldiers children.

19. NOT
We're not talking about boycotting one day. We're talking about never going there again. See the difference?

10. Don't bother calling that 1-800 number.
It's Hannity's and North's private baby. They will care less than two shits what any of us have to say.

12. Tyler did you call the 1-800 number?
Edited on Fri May-28-04 08:38 AM by Mel
What did they say? Your right if it's Hannity's baby they won't care about what we say, but Six Flags will if they are boycotted.

14. Haven't called Six Flags yet...Can't from work.
I am going to call them the moment I get home, though.

As to the 1-800 number, it's a direct line to Hannity's and North's pet project (a "freedom foundation" sort of thing AND the scholarship deal). When packaged on the same line, it sounds like a shlush fund to me.

By the way, DO call it. The reciepient on an 800 line gets charged a flat rate for every single call that gets picked up.

17. Family entertainment ????

This is like the Nickelodeon themed areas right. Audiences are covered with bile and hated for their enjoyable day at the park.

Seriously, have these creaps ever LISTENED to Sean Hannity. Political themed broadcasters have NO BUSINESS in fun parks. Not even Air America. People go to these places to ESCAPE from that shit.

20. Not much....
Since Duers are boycotting Disney because of Michael Moore.

Politics and strange bedfellows indeed.
