As long as people like Sean Hannity are given the opportunity to shove brainless rhetoric down the sheeple's throats we are screwed. He needs to be replaced. I'm serious. I was listening to his show yesterday out of curiosity, and he was trying to make a case against Obama and the democrats. This is how he did it.
First, he played a dozen or so clips of various democrats who were verbally chastising republicans for "celebrating" the fact that Obama was unable to get the Olympics to Chicago. My first thoughts on that are that it's actually pretty petty to celebrate such a thing. Regardless, he played the clips of Democrat's rhetoric which really made the republicans seem immature. He didn't even offer a counter argument or anything.
Second, he tried to make Obama seem like a hypocrite, by playing a few clips of his so-called "America-hating" speeches. The clips were short, and consisted of extremely Libertarian talking points (one clip even had obama talking specifically about protecting our liberties). If I knew nothing else about Obama then the clips Sean Hannity played I would vote for him in a heart beat and feel pretty damn good about it. It doesn't even make sense.
What the FUCK is going on?
