This Is Not A Democracy, It's A Republic........
I don't really care for any of those guys involved in that scuffle, but I think it's pretty clear that Hannity ended up looking like the bigger prick.
I mean, the guy is a professional pundit, you don't call up a colleague's job and start talking about their guest's wife and telling him how stupid he is for having his own opinion. I thought Alec handled it about as well as he could, though he did revert to the name calling. Obviously Hannity was going for shock and was trying to provoke something people would talk about.
It's all pretty childish, you're right about that.
What's more entertaining are some of the conservative ads on that righty Web site you sent me to.
Glad to provide you with fun.
But, Hannity didn't start the name calling. And he admitted to being sucked into it. Alec on the other hand acted like an ass, then just walked away. Again, P*SSY.
Wow, talk about irony and the pot calling the kettle black. Hannity has has a boner for Baldwin for months and was clearly the attacker.
Hannity has made a career out of choosing one or two things people are quoted as saying and then asking hardline yes or no answers in an effort to back other guests into a guilty corner. He does it ALL the time. Every night.
For instance: On the February 20 edition of Fox News' Hannity & Colmes, right-wing attention whore Ann Coulter claimed that Democrats "have affection for terrorists." When challenged by syndicated columnist Arianna Huffington, also appearing on the show, co-host Sean Hannity refused to say whether he agreed with Coulter's assertion.
Coulter made her comments during a discussion of a post on Huffington's weblog, The Huffington Post, by actor Alec Baldwin, who wrote that Vice President Dick Cheney was "a terrorist." In response to Coulter's assertion, Huffington adopted an occasional practice of Hannity's and challenged the Fox News host to answer "yes or no" to the question of whether he agreed with Coulter. But when Huffington turned the tables, Hannity refused to give a straight answer. Hannity has been known to confront guests with "yes or no" questions that oversimplify, misrepresent, or divert attention from the issue at hand.
HANNITY: Yes, I mean, but they are a party, frankly, that is an appeasement party, that is pre-9-11 in their thought process, and they show themselves every day to be weak on national security.
COULTER: I think it's more than pre-9-11. I mean, they do have affection for these -- for these terrorists.
HUFFINGTON: You know what, Sean? Sean, let me ask you something.
HANNITY: Hang on a sec.
HUFFINGTON: Sean -- Sean, let me ask you something.
HANNITY: OK, you ask me.
HUFFINGTON: Do you agree with your guest, Ann? Do you agree that Democrats have an affection for terrorists? Do you agree with that?
HANNITY: Do I agree?
HUFFINGTON: Yes or no? It's a yes or no question.
HANNITY: Arianna, I will answer this way.
HUFFINGTON: You know what, Ann? You're just completely exaggerating what Robert Wright wrote in that column.
HANNITY: Arianna, I'll tell you what I believe. Your party has undermined --
HUFFINGTON: And Sean is not backing you up here.
HANNITY: Your party has undermined the war on terror every step in the way. They are consistently, repeatedly, almost on a daily basis, not only wrong, but they're hurting the war effort. They're hurting our troops. They're hurting our commander in chief. And you know something? I think you're hurting yourself politically as a result of it.
HANNITY: So Alec Baldwin by calling Vice President Cheney a terrorist is following that model?
HUFFINGTON: You know what? How many times are you going to say that? Would you like to go through a litany of the toxic statements made by your other guest, Ann Coulter -- I would just like -- you know what, Sean? For you to suddenly be so, so incredibly h
HUFFINGTON: I would just like -- you know what, Sean? For you to suddenly be so, so incredibly hypersensitive about what Alec Baldwin said, when you've allowed Ann Coulter to be on your show and say things --
COULTER: And that's really outrageous.
HUFFINGTON: -- that are so unbelievably toxic about --
HANNITY: She's right here to talk to you. You're debating.
HUFFINGTON: -- sending liberals abroad -- yes, exactly -- sending liberals to Guant
ánamo, having televised torture, sending daisy-cutters to the Middle East.
HANNITY: Let me go to you, Ann --
HUFFINGTON: These are all completely sane, moderate statements made by Ann Coulter. And I have not seen you distancing yourself from those toxic, extreme statements.
HANNITY: Well, why don't you talk to Ann, considering she's right here? You can talk to Ann.
HUFFINGTON: Because I'm asking you. You're asking me if I'm backing up what Alec Baldwin said.
HANNITY: I gave you my answer. I told you. I think your party is become -- led by Al Gore, and [House Democratic Leader] Nancy Pelosi [D-CA], and [Sen.] Hillary [Rodham Clinton] [D-NY], and Kerry, and Howard Dean, who hates Republicans, 'cause he says so -- I think your party has been taken over by you and the extreme left. I think you're weak on terror. I think you have a pre-9-11 mentality. You've undermined the president. You've undermined the troops, and your hate-Bush mentality is not winning you any friends among the American people. And I think it's destructive towards our troops and our country.
Not remotely the same.
This was Huffington Vs. Coulter. Then she dragged Hannity in. He answered the question, and didn't storm out like a wuss. It was a different type of "argument".
Ann and Hannity are both Republicans. Alec is not. Hannity clearly lays out where he's coming from. It would be like Colmes jumping in when Hannity is on a roll. Nope not the same.
And Baldwin got WAY personal, getting into his past and such. Hannity was attacking a current issue.
Face it Baldwin can dish it, but he can't take it.
"Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately."
-Alec Baldwin
"These idiots might get us all killed, sooner or later. But Bush gets a pass because of these incompetent, gutless cowards like Hastert and Frist who believe their loyalty lies with Rove and not the American people."
-Alec Baldwin
"How about...a lying, thieving Oil Whore. Or, a murderer of the US Constitution? No wait! Try...the worst Vice President in US history? Anyway, let me work on that."
-Alec Baldwin (apologizing)
Do me a favor, too, when you have a post like the two above, you could just provide a link, it would be easier for all those involved.
So when Hannity goes full throttle he is a “prick”?
But when people stop a city in its tracks and wave flags of another country it is people being “passionate”?
Another example of how when the right puts any emotion in to something they are a$$holes, but the left is just looking out for people. Kind of like the lefties in San Fran calling a group of Christians fascists?
Give me a break. Screw your Goddamn heads on straight and realize that “freedom of speech” goes both ways! You do not have a monopoly on it. All of you should spend some time in the military, then you would have a real and true understanding of “freedom of speech.” Learn some respect and responsibility.
I would have shot that vanilla baboon known as Sham Trannity myself and throw bricks at Alan Colmes. That nut has never been in the service or learned how to use a gun and plays this so called Republican values. He should be thrown in the back seat that elitist prick. Someone should call Hannity's vanilla ass of his and curse him out for being an unpatriotic American.
Well, the point was that Hannity has a rich history of not playing fair in interviews and was clearly out of line for calling a colleague's talk show to attack Baldwin.
The main point, however, even though you missed it, was that Hannity is bumrushing Baldwin for outrageous statements yet sucks the teet of Ann Coulter (I know, I'm throwing up in my mouth thinking about it) while she spews hate, lies and right wing propaganda like Karl Rove on PMS. It's a double standard, whether you're republican or democrat or whatever, it doesn't matter.
For the record, I don't think Alec Baldwin's statements were that far off base, either. Maybe a little harsh and definitely "unpatriotic," but not far from the truth.
Also, it's not a crime to be unpatriotic. It's also not a crime to criticize our administration in a time of war. And criticizing the current administration and how they foreplayed us into a winless war sure as shit doesn't mean you're unpatriotic or don't support the troops. I don't smile when my boss gives me extra work because he was too lazy to do it.
Oh, and point taken about providing a link next time.
No Pete, it is not a crime to be unpatriotic, it just makes me want to smack those that are(unpatriotic).
Ann Coulter, while I actually agree with some of the things she says, is just too extreme right for me. It's not that I disagree with the things she says, always, it's how she says them. Just like Baldwin.
Except Ann is a professional pundit, and Alec is just a loud mouth, elitist, third rate actor. The only thing he's ever done I liked is the "Shweaty Balls" skit from SNL.
The image of Coulter and Hannity engaged in teet sucking has ruined my lunch, you big boob. Let's not do that again.
Oh, and Anon....you're a bit of an idiot aren't you. Quick, you're late on your meds.
In MdConservative, does:
Md = mad, like crazy mad?
Md = mad, like pissed-off mad?
Md = a right wing nut from Maryland?
At any rate, Hannity is not a prick because he's going full throttle. Hannity is a prick because he's a professional broadcaster and pundit and yet goes on a colleague's show and talks about a guest's wife and acts like a child. He'd lose his shit if someone acted that way on his program to one of his "righty" guests.
And, yes, I feel the same way about Jon Stewart going on shows and picking fights. Be professional, people. It's hypocritical to be so critical of the White House and yet go on TV/radio and act like a jackass yourself.
I bet Ann Coulter has "Schweatty Balls."
Your argument about Ann having a green light to say what she wants just because she's a professional pundit is ridiculous. The only difference between her outrageous remarks and Baldwin's is that she should know better. But her paycheck and, frankly, her relevance comes from her loose mouth and shock value. Coulter=Stern.
I also take exception to you calling Baldwin a third-rate actor. Now, either one of his brothers, sure, you're right on point. But Alec is definitely considered to be on the A list, whether you like him or not.
How about a post on the new evidence that Bush was going to war no matter what? Gotta love that one after arguing for so long in his favor.
"It's not that I disagree with the things she says, always, it's how she says them." What green light did I give her?
Huh? What post on Bush?
Do I need to do this again?

"Except Ann is a professional pundit, and Alec is just a loud mouth, elitist, third rate actor."
I took that as you justifying her remarks.
Oh, I just recall several posts in which you were justifying our invasion of Iraq, that's all. I thought the new story about the emergence of the White House Memo confirming the Downing Street Memo and the new information about Dick Cheney ready to invade Iraq in December 2000 was interesting.
But that's just the liberal media talking.
Last I'd heard the Downing street memo was outed as a load of bullpuckey.
All I really want to say is: Baldwin is a shmuck. Hannity rock on!
Exactly.
"In MdConservative, does:
Md = mad, like crazy mad?
Md = mad, like pissed-off mad?
Md = a right wing nut from Maryland?"
I would assume that would range on who you would ask. My intention was just "a right wing nut from Maryland." But like all people, I can get pissed off.
All parties involved got what they asked for. Liberal or Conservative they all acted like a bunch of high school boys after a football game. I cracked up though when I read the "butt-boy" remark. What strikes me though-is maybe 90% of the time, when a liberal is asked a question, or, asked to back up a comment, he/she will get all huffy and refuse to answer. It's because they can't get their facts straight. -On a side note, my mom will listen to Sean Hannity just to get her "blood pressure" going as she would say. This is why I love watching/listening to political programs.
The bottomline here is that Sean Hannity is a political pundit, and Alec Baldwin is a washed up actor who is trying to gain attention with his liberal b.s.!
Seriously Alec, leave it up to the professional liberal hacks to spew your b.s., stay out of it, you're an actor, and your an idiot.
Hannity/Limbaugh '08
By the way, how did construction worker became a news anchor at Fox News.
Sean's not my favorite, but I prefer any conservative over a liberal, so Alec "You Haven't Left The Country Yet?" Baldwin won't get any awards from me. I have noticed a proclivity toward unwarranted ad hominem attacks by the left.
It's the old double standard. Do as I say not as I do. The left can do and say any disgusting thing they want, but if a righty does it, they flip out.
And Vice Versa. Don't paint the right as the deity it wants to be. It's the right that's making "he said, she said" a major part of its platform.
Bullpuckey Pete. In fact, that't one thing about our right slanted elected officials trhat pisses me off. They DON'T speak out nearly enough.
The left slanders all the live long day, and Bushco., just kinda sit's there and takes it.
One side fights with Marquis of Queensberry rules and the other side is the nasty, do-or-say-anything-to-win street fighter.
That's one reason I give Anne a lot of latitude. She tries to even up the deficiency on our side.
"By the way, how did construction worker became a news anchor at Fox News."
By living in America. I am sure it is along the same lines as say someone who grew up down south and thought they would grow up to be a pianist, then ends up as Secretary of State.
I found this loon talking about Bush again
Pillaging the Treasury and the Constitution: Bush is No Conservative
PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS | March 29 2006
President Bush passes himself off as a conservative Republican and a born-again Christian. These are disguises behind which Bush hides. Would a Christian invade another country on false pretenses, kill tens of thousands of innocent civilians, and show no remorse or inclination to cease the aggression?
Long-time Republican policy-wonk Bruce Bartlett recently published a book, Impostor, in which he proves that President Bush is no economic conservative, having broken all records in spending taxpayers' money and running up public debt.
Were Bush merely another big spender, his presidency wouldn't differ from other pork barrel administrations, but Bush's radicalism goes far beyond spending. Bush supports outsourcing American jobs, and he has taken an irreverent approach to the U.S. Constitution.
Bush bears no resemblance to a political conservative. A political conservative does not confuse government with country. Patriotism means loyalty to country. Bush, however, demands allegiance to his government: "You are with us or against us!" Critics of the Bush administration are branded "unpatriotic" and even "treasonous."
Loyalty to country means allegiance to the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and the separation of powers. It does not mean blind support for a president, an administration, or a political party.
The separation of powers and civil liberties that were bequeathed to us by the Founding Fathers are the protectors of our liberty. Bush, who swore on the Bible that he would defend and uphold the Constitution, has made it clear that he will not let the Constitution get in the way of expanding the powers of his office.
Bush has over-ridden a number of protections in the Bill of Rights. The right to assemble and to demonstrate has been infringed. The Secret Service now routinely removes protesters from the scene of Bush political events. Many unthinking Americans go along with this authoritarianism because they don't agree with the protesters, but once the right is lost, everyone loses it.
Bush has ignored habeas corpus and claims the unconstitutional power to arrest and detain people indefinitely without a warrant and without presenting charges to a judge. This is the most dangerous abuse of all, because whoever is in office can use this power against political opponents. Many unthinking Americans are not concerned, because they think this power will be used only against terrorists. However, as the Bush administration has admitted, many of its detainees are not terr
Bush has ignored habeas corpus and claims the unconstitutional power to arrest and detain people indefinitely without a warrant and without presenting charges to a judge. This is the most dangerous abuse of all, because whoever is in office can use this power against political opponents. Many unthinking Americans are not concerned, because they think this power will be used only against terrorists. However, as the Bush administration has admitted, many of its detainees are not terrorists. Most are innocent people kidnapped by tribal leaders and sold to the U.S. for the bounties paid for "terrorists."
Bush has refused to obey statutory law, specifically the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Bush claims that as commander-in-chief he has the right to ignore the law and to spy on Americans without a warrant. Many unthinking Americans are unconcerned, saying that as they are doing nothing wrong they have nothing to fear. This attitude misses the point in a large way. If a president can establish himself above one law, he can establish himself above all laws. There is no line drawn through the law that divides the laws between the ones the president must obey and the ones he need not obey.
FISA does not interfere with government spying for national security purposes. Secrecy is protected, because the court of federal judges that issues the warrants is secret. Moreover the law allows the government to spy first and then come to the court for a warrant. The purpose of the warrant is to be sure that the government is spying for legitimate purposes and not abusing the power to spy on political opponents for nefarious purposes.
When presidents sign a bill passed by Congress that they think might be interpreted in ways that could impinge on the powers of their office, they add a "signing statement" to protect traditional presidential powers. Under Bush this practice has exploded. Bush has used signing statements considerably in excess of all previous presidents combined. Moreover, Bush uses the statements not to protect president powers, but to nullify acts of Congress, such as Republican Senator John McCain's law against torture. Bush is using signing statements to turn the presidency into a dictatorship in which the executive is not accountable to laws passed by Congress. The next step is simply to announce that the executive is not accountable to elections either.
Bush's government is the first in our history in which there are no dissenting voices and no debate. Uniformity of opinion is more characteristic of a dictatorial government than a conservative one. Bush's government is all of one mind, because all important positions are held by neoconservati
Bush's government is the first in our history in which there are no dissenting voices and no debate. Uniformity of opinion is more characteristic of a dictatorial government than a conservative one. Bush's government is all of one mind, because all important positions are held by neoconservatives.
Neoconservative is a deceptive term. It means "new conservatives," but there is nothing conservative about neocons. Neoconservatives believe in imposing their agenda on other countries--the antithesis of American conservatism.
In short, real conservatives believe in conserving the Constitution, government accountability, and civil liberties, and avoiding foreign entanglements. Judging by its behavior and its statements, the Bush administration stands completely outside the conservative tradition.
Yes, Neo KON, I've covered that in my letter to the president.
[shaking my head]
Anyone that feels POTUS has violated the law with the NSA-TSP I regard as ignorant.
Beyond that it is tough to continue reading.

Amen to John Conner a REAL conservative not to you Bushites. I dare you call him a liberal....and take that Sean Trannity (bitch slaps him) "GOD DAMN ASS MILK MONKEY!"
I am going to be on his show and deficate him. He loves that as very much...
I just took a dump already and need to practice on it for Hannity Show since he likes his turd warm...
John Connor isn't a liberal, he isn't anything but an extremely insane NUT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anon, please, find your meds.
Now let's talk about the Bohemain Grove: aka all male queerfest since our supposed leaders are one in the same...what about the cremation of care? The mock human sacrifice during the babylonian era?
In Spy Magazine there were leaders who are members of this devil worshipping sausagefest such as Bill Clinton, Bushes, Kissinger, Nixon, David Gergen who was interviewed and acosed Alex Jones who said it was None of His DAMN Busniess. Even on the Washington Times he said He wouldn't Bollock Naked...
How can you call Bush a conservative even though he's not part of the conservative values along with Clinton who is not part of the liberal values. They are both part of the 1 percent wealth elite.
I commend you for being part of the Bushite log cabin cheerleader...and strip off that so called Republican bullshit

Ah, lovely, keep it up p*ssy boy. You just keep Anon posting, don't worry, I won't delete it, just show's what your kind is like.
I know you are used to it, but you are mentally disturbed.
Oh, by the way, I don't worship Satan, as I'm an athiest. The only thing I worship is a nice ice cold beer after I leave the office on a friday afternoon.
And once again, for all you F*CKTARDS too stupid to read:

Jenn says:
"You, Mr. President, are just like any other politician. Your flip flops aren't as conspicuous as Kerry's were, but they are just as bad.
You spend money like a drunken sailor on shore leave, you pander to Vicente Fox, and you have the verbal skills of a hamster on crack."
So fuck off Anon p*ssy boy. ; )
After that drivel you are sound like a mentally disturbed girl...
Well good I am very happy that others should read about this administration and the country ran by the elite...
I read your letter which had good points but now it is invalid and undervalued
So if you had this thought about the president being a flip flopper and working with the oliogarchial big wigs of the globalist syndicate then why do you blindly follow him and these gatekeepers like Hannity, Coulter, Malkin and O'Reilly and G Gordon Liddy since most of them are Cheerleaders...
Now you should stop skirting around and stick with the topics I am presenting.
"Now you should stop skirting around and stick with the topics I am presenting."
Last time I checked this is her blog. Hence, you don't pick the topics she does. Maybe if you didn't decide to go anon all the time and let her know your blog she would respond to the topics you pick.
Until then... Why bother talking to you. Me speakie common sensey, you speaky ignoranty.
mdconservative: be gone that does not concern you...
***Hannity(Makes me laugh and I agree with him often), Coulter(Speaks the truth more often than not, just rudely), Malkin(The girl has got skills) and O'Reilly(funny man) and G Gordon Liddy(Don't care about him)...
The Bohemian Grove crap is tired. You want the truth, the real truth about the Bohemian Grove, I know the truth, can you handle the truth???????
Oh, and MD, thanks, it is my blog, why is it the lefties can never even keep close to the topic of my post?
Despite your acute efforts of response you love to skirt around yourself and not answering the question. I can care less about those gatekeepers.
In this mirage there is a left/right...in the real world those definition are obsolete
Now let's get back with the Bohemian Grove discussion...
You, Anon, whom I have now dubbed P*ssy Boy, because you can't even manage to make up a name for yourself like Pete, who changes his name after geting pissed at me and stormimg off, need to get help.
So, again, I give you this, but you need to beg first...."You want the truth, the real truth about the Bohemian Grove, I know the truth, can you handle the truth???????"
Ooh very heated exchanges here. Liberals and Conservatives... They all have their own agendas
Who doesn't?
Ah well that's the art of being an Anonymous I am just an entity not a person. I am a shadow without a face or an Identity...walking around behind the blackest areas of buildings I observe, sense and see the lies about this government their gain of these events.
Am I pete how about no. I do not speak for him or his kind. Pete's sentiments are as petty as yours and have no clue what's going on. I've read about the voting and both of your parties are hijacked by Illuminati satanists.
I know your kind and obviously you are attempting to entrap me. Why should I beg to you because you are a woman or some trifiling mortal feeling omnipotent to others and blind yourself with all of that flouride induced called your mind by treating people whose views are different with nasty adhomenem attacks and slithering through the questions without directly answering without your reasoning.
Oh, well, guess you can't handle the truth. Better luck next time.
there you go again just slithering through the questions...
Maybe, just maybe if you weren't so insane, and just typed out a simple question me could respondy!
There you go again with those adhominem attacks...but that has to be your petty job as a Bush Cheerleader/Gatekeeper
Your question? Not statement...question. YOu said you have one.
look at the initial challenging one...
I've posted it initially about the bohemian grove...
I know you did block my other post on the McKinney!
What that you just took a dump and want to smear it on Sean Hannity?
You remind me of this person who posts on an anon ,message board I like to frequent. She is a complete idiot.Yes, you are both very similar.
Stop the subterfuge, ask the QUESTION, point blank, and I'll humor you by answering.
Sorry was I talking to an octopussoire? Was I hearing a scream and curls of a beast that snares one like a flytrap and please lay off that Daisani really I think your cognitive skills are those of the Cro Mangon.
Here is an Idea how about inviting Sean Hannity over too the Queerfest oops I mean the Bohemain grove, strip everything off his pride and joy and sacrifice him to the cananite deity moloch. I am sure they would be happy to do that and cannibalization is a practical trait...
Oh, well, I guess you cannot actually form a real question. Pity. You were fun in the same way genital herpes must be for those that have it.
I refer to your latest discharge of plebeian verbiage; in which, you have proven, once again, that there is no such thing as unutterable nonsense.
If brains were gasoline, you wouldn't have enough to run an ant's go-kart around the inside of a donut. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself on the Internet. However, I'll consider letting you have the last word if you guarantee it will be your last. As Robert Wilensky said: "We've all heard that a million monkeys banging on a million typewriters will eventually reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. Now, thanks to the Internet, we know this is not true."
If that post was intended as a joke, you forgot to include the punch line. Do yourself and everyone else a favor: take a fatal overdose of your medication.
Now, why don’t you climb onto that Special Needs tricycle of yours with the fourth wheel attached for extra-ensured retard stability and pedal your ass down to the sports field and do some “outdoors” stuff for a change. Hell, if you don’t like it, you can always offer to lick-clean the jockstraps.
was your octopussoire snarling again?
I'm sorry have you located your balls yet? Please don't bother until they are firmly in place. Smooooooooooooooooches
You just kissed a sweaty pulsated lesbo's flytrap and it bit your big injected lips off...
and I don't care abous Susan is she your other lover does Ann Coulter know you are cheating on her?
