FOX's Sean Hannity fundraising for Rick Santorum
Sean Hannity, co-host of the Fox News Channel's Hannity & Colmes, is apparently no longer content just to ask Rick Santorum softball questions every time he shows up on Sean's show. Hannity will be in Western Pennsylvania tomorrow to attend a fund raiser for Rick.

2. Good for him.
Santorum is going down and he's going to be taking Hannity down a peg as well.

8. yes but it's just because they have to counter the Librul media monolith
I mean we own the courts, the media, everything. They have to do that stuff just to keep pace.

10. I actually had a guy tell me
with a straight face that talk radio is the only thing that Conservatives have any voice in right now. He said liberals own the media, the courts etc. His example of a liberal running rampant in the media was Wolf Blitzer, haha. Now, keep in mind, this guy telling me this is homeless. He sleeps out in a dry riverbed every night and listens to the radio. He's a big O'Reilly fan too. My brother had to tell him about Billy's little phone sex/falafel problems, haha. If that isn't warped though, a homeless RWer. I thought I've seen nearly everything. :)

26. beats cuddling with colmes....

Now whenever Blitzer is on tv I always look over at my brother and rail on about how liberal he and the rest of the media is, lol. I do a solid impression of a RW tirade. :)

4. He Also Said He'd Raise Funds For Joementum!
I can't believe I read recently that "every state democrat" in the legislature in Connecticut is supporting Holy Joe.

Hannity endorses him, that ought to be enough to sink any Democrat!

6. Why does Santorum need a fundraiser?
If he needs money, why doesn't he just dip into the bank account of his 'charity', like he's being doing up til now?

7. Sean's quite the great American, isn't he?
Perhaps he'll bring Jesus Christ On A Trailer with him, like when he was campaigning for Terri Schiavo's feeding tube.

13. Ok, naive question...
Isn't it inappropriate for journalists to campaign for a candidate? I realize the irony of calling Hannity a journalist, but I know newspaper employees (not reporters) who are clearly told that they cannot have bumper stickers or other campaign material, and that they cannot attend campaign rallies -- in order to appear objective.

17. Sounds like the ethical thing to do.
But if you work for the fair and balanced network, it is a given that you will not favor one candidate over another.

Wait that isn't what Hannity is doing is it. So much for fair and balanced.

Probably just recruiting him to replace Colmes as his liberal co-host when he loses the election.

20. the fuck you say
Edited on Sun Feb-26-06 09:47 PM by CatWoman
nice pass you're trying to give that big mouth asshole, tho.

How's that for "objectivity"???

"I'm not a journalist, but I play one on tee-vee" is no excuse.

24. Think of vulgarity as the little sprinkles on your ice cream
not needed, sure -- but it does make for a better finger licking experience.

No?

Of course, I don't like sprinkles. So I'll just stick with four letter words.

I sure as fuck don't see Dowd, Krugman, Will and/or Colmes raising money for candidates.

thinking like yours is what's wrong with this country.

You forget that it's all about telling the truth. I don't expect rightists to claim "objectivity" -- that word doesn't belong in their vocabulary.

Krugman tells the truth. He doesn't have to wave a flag yelling "over here!!! I don't have to be objective because I'm a commentator!!!

What planet are you on?

But, wait, maybe that's what Fox means by "fair and balanced"? ya think???

Is one man's objectivity another man's truth? Is that what you are trying to present here?

25. By George, I think I've got it...
Of course, thanks to King George, I understand that 2 + 2 = 5, up is down, black is white, civil war is a good thing, etc.

exhorting people in the various states to go out and vote for Bush.
