Agree. I am no longer spending my 'three hours a day, five days a week' with him.

Hannity did cross a line didn't he?! That's the one where a talking head or politician thinks that it is advantageous to put the welfare of the troops in the field at risk to make a relatively minor political point.
It's the antithesis of patriotism.
Didn't this guy grow up a Democrat though? He's gonna' have to get over that stuff.

3. Puke!!!
Edited on Fri Mar-10-06 09:34 AM by Dawgs
"He will tell anyone who will listen about the brilliance of Ronald Reagan. He tells us he is a “World War Three” veteran and that Reagan won the Cold War without firing a shot. For Father's Day a few years ago, I even got him a license plate frame that reads: “World War III Veteran......Reagan Won the Cold War.”" -- this is from the original OP post, not what Hannity said.

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

When will someone finally make a movie showing how the Cold War ended?

Geesh!!!!

Didn't that term, "seminar Caller"
come from the great one, Rush Limbaugh? hannity is a fraud; an impersonator.

There is no one who really can compare to Rush Limbaugh. The man is right over 95% of the time in his predictions and analysis, plus he is vastly more creative, informative, and entertaining than all the other talk show hosts. I am very glad that we have Rush Limbaugh on our side.

6. Now that bit about Limbaugh is funny!!!
"He's right over 95% of the time." They got that figure from the same place Limbaugh gets his--straight out of their overindulged, misshapen asses.

23. Isn't he having a problem with flatulence?
If I was trapped with Rushblo, I'd agree he was right just to get the heck away from him.

It's amazing that he still has as many sycophants as he does. I guess all his remaining fans are drug-addled gas bags too. :D

13. I suppose that the one time that he was definitely wrong was when he
didn't realize that abuse of Oxycontin destroyed your hearing. And that has to severely outweigh the times that he was right, which I am not willing to concede.

I always thought Hannity was the biggest creep, but obviously there is much worse out there! :freak:

8. I've noticed that they are diving behind Reagan for cover
Now that bunnypant's popularity is cratering, RW'ers are talking about Reagan more. Apparently, "Face of Evil" ran on TV last month and got them all excited.

15. That's not the way it sounds to me.
It sounds like Hannity came out against the port deal, contrary to Dear Leader's wishes, which automaitcally makes him a tool of the Democrats. As if no-one over here claimed that being against the port deal was anti-Arab, racist, short-sighted, silly, etc. They think that UAE might retaliate because of the deal's collapse, by closing off support for US troops.

Myself, I think that's proof of just how good friends the UAE really is, leaving me in the position of (gag) agreeing with Hannity.

19. I'm a lttle dense this morning, not getting the analogy.
Is the girlfriend Dubai, or Hannity?

The Dubai royals know what matters to this administration - money. They were financiers for OBL and other terrorists through BCCI and BCCE; on such good terms that they visited his terror training camps in Afghanistan. We know all that, of course, because the CIA was funnelling money to OBL and the mujahdeen through BCCI in the 80s, before Kerry's investigation shut down that conduit. Now they're saying, if you don't let us have this contract, we don't need to help you fight terror, as if that was a priority with them in the first place.

I don't believe that autocratic dictatorhips with a history of animosity toward democracy should have any say, in the slightest degree, over the security of our ports. Of course, that statement applies to Bushco, too.

22. my point is that the UAE
is actually the most progressive of the Arab states at this point (yes, it's a hereditary monarchy, but they are, in fact moving towards elections, they are having them next month, in fact, for half the seats on the governing council. the other half will be appointed by the 7 emirs). but besides all that, we talk a good game about working with Arab states, and not being at war with the Arab world, but with an extreme faction (that the rulers of Dubai aren't big fans of either, by the way, the other emirs might be more sympatico, and there are certainly crazy relatives, when you have 250 cousins, SOME of them are going to be idiots, right?) Dubai has eliminated the Madrasses, where Muslim fundamentalism is taught, for instance) Yes, they are businessmen, and they haven't always done business with the right people, but then our hands aren't exactly clean in that respect either, are they? I think that, like much of the world, 9/11 was an awakening for them, it's one thing to tolerate a bunch of whackos who are targeting government buildings and military targets (like the Cole) it's another when you realize they are mass murderers of civilians completely unconnected to governments. Look what happened to the IRA, for instance. in the late 80's and 90's, they killed many more civlians than soldiers, and their support from abroad, especially in the US, dropped like a stone. in 1990, you could find IRA friendly bars in Boston and New York. People who helped raise money for the 'cause' but would never think of supporting 'terrorism'. Same with ETA in Spain. Once you start killing civilians randomly, people realize that it's not some romantic war, it's just plain murder. People have incredible blind spots, and everyone likes the underdog. Check out the romanticism of Che Guevara in the US now, people wear Che shirts, thinking he was a romantic freedom fighter. Which he was, except when he was a brutal enforcer who had no qualms about killing people to make a point. Were the people at O"Malley's Pub in Boston (fictional location) who threw a twenty into the hat when the Sinn Fein guy came along evil? or simply naive? anyway it's not relevant here.

Of course Dubai is pissed off at us, we just told them that they aren't welcome to do business here. For five years, they have done everything we asked of them, and they aren't really our type of people after all. There may have been legitimate concerns about the operation, but the reaction was, to the rest of the world, racist. It wasn't about a foreign company running the ports, it was about an Arab company running the ports. Now the average Tom, Dick or Harry may simply dislike foreign companies doing it, and had no idea, but you know Chuck Schumer knew that foreign companies do most of the port work in the US. And he didn't care until it was Arabs (and I don't really think he does care, it was simply politics) but our internal politics certainly look awful to the rest of the world now. If you were the UAE, where would you spend your money now? in the country that just told you, very publically and very humiliatingly, to fuck off? I wouldn't.

20. Another lovely example of projection:

Always trying to fob their shit off on us.
