I would like to think I'm a fairly empathetic person. But I must admit....

...I don’t feel an ounce of sorrow for Sean Hannity in the least.

I will cherish whatever just desserts that despicable little man gets served upon him with the utmost level of glee, like a kid feels on Christmas morning.

Welcome to the jungle, Sean. We’ve got fun and games.

He will now cast himself as a victim of the special prosecution, targeted by th "deep state" because he speaks truth to the evil forces of... You get what I am saying.

Fox News doesn't live in the same journalistic physics as everyone else.

committed a crime? I would love it if he does, but it sounds like you might be jumping the gun a bit...

there is criminal activity in Cohen's representation of Hannity, the taint team won't allow his file to be opened.

9. I'm wondering about Hannity's denial

He claims he was not Cohen's client. Does that mean neither he nor Cohen can invoke attorney-client privilege for anything Mueller and crew discovered, including tapes of conversations? If so, things will get interesting.

But in any case, I don't see where Hannity's job is in jeopardy. He's a whore working in a journalistic brothel, for chrissakes. Unless he's told Cohen that he hates what America used to stand for -- except for El Amendment Dos -- and wishes we'd incorporate with Russia, Fox would most likely keep him in the fold.

(All he has to do is deny, deny, deny, and invoke the horrid "Deep State" as the source that fabricated all of his troubles.)

I had a trooper do that to a guy who did that to me. I do have some empathy for that guy.

But Hannity? Can you claim sympathy when you are still laughing? Enquiring minds want to know.

he's still Fox Golden. There might be three or four Fox viewers who understand the significance of the connection or lack of connection between Hannity and Cohen.

13. Let IQ45 hire him for a WH job. Hannity is wealthy.

Probably ready to go do his own thing if he can't be effective for Faux News any more. His buddies like IQ45 might miss their mouthpiece, though. He won't be as valuable to them.

The thought of empathy or compassion re Hannity never even occurred to me! You're CLEARLY a better person than I in that arena!
