Hannity criticized Obama over comments that Hannity misleadingly cropped

SUMMARY: On his radio show, Sean Hannity twice aired a cropped version of remarks that Sen. Barack Obama made in 2001 radio interview in which Obama stated, "There's a lot of change going on outside of the court that, you know, the judges have to essentially take judicial notice of. I mean, you've got World War II. You've got the doctrines of Nazism that we are fighting against that start looking uncomfortably similar to what's going on back here at home." But Hannity left out Obama's next sentence: "You've got African Americans who are returning from the war with certain expectations in terms of, 'Why is it that I'm now in uniform and yet am denied more freedom here than I was in France or Italy?' "
