      Hannity didn't go to school at all...


      (IMO, it's not an insult, it's just a joke he tried to make but failed.)

        Exactly. He calls Obama an elitist over "mustard" and he, who didn't even finish school goes and says something like this, literally days after the mustard hype. Hannity is hypocrisy at it's best.

      Whoops. Great American hates our public schools? Prefers Catholic pedofile teachers UNPROTECTED BY HATE CRIME BILL!!!! Another GOP Talking point.

      God it just gets stupider and stupider. "Obama Debt" Where were they when the rest of us were freaking out about the war costs?

      I think he should have takend a Ryan Seacrest job. Then again I heard him wondering why Guns N Roses weren't playing, so maybe not.

      It's "government school," not "public school."

      The proper response to that is: "Yeah, Sean; I went to public school -- and I GRADUATED!!!"

        From the man that couldn't graduate from a public school, that was pretty rich, I assume Hannity's audience base is dumb enough to let him slide off on this.

      Well, see, the Troglodytes have been trying to put a stake through the heart of the Public School system ever since the mean old Government made their children go to school with colored children.

      Then, to add insult to injury, the mean old Government made them stop using public school time to indoctrinate other people's children into Christianity. The nerve!

      Do you really think people like Hanniterd support vouchers so that minority children can go to private schools? Really?

      I don't care that Sean Hannity is on the TV, with his own show... but what I do care about is that Sean can make such inane and stupid and ignorant observations... and yet call himself a journalist.

      His show is pure unadulterated opinion! Nothing more, nothing less. As far as I'm concerned all of FoxNoise can stay on the air til the end of days... but in the interim, I firmly and absolutley believe that the FCC needs to pass a regulation that forces Fox to put down the fascade of "Fair and Balanced" and "We Report, you decide" with... "This is not a news channel... this is an opinion channel"

      This is not in any way a form of supression or restriction on Fox's right to free speech... they can say what they want, whenever they want, however they want to... but since they are part of society, Fox should be held to account in that they should be forced to call themselves exactly what they are!

      An opinion channel!

      Or at the very least... seperate the news from the opinions like it mostly used to be pre-1980's

      MediaMatters will not allow posts that logically dispute their attemt to discredit Fox News. This site seems obsessed with Fox. Is it their sole purpose to diminish one news outlet? This tells me they are very afraid of the impact Fox has on the Liberal agenda.

        MMFA does not have to discredit FOX NEWS. FOX does a very good job of discrediting itself.I have watched FOX enough to see that it is a propaganda organ for the far RIGHT WING of the REPUBLICAN PARTY.

        Actually, they're concerned with the way FOX is dumbing down a significant percentage of the electorate.

        Since Media Matters' stated purpose is to expose Conservative Misinformation, and FOX is the leading disseminator of that misinformation, it is only natural that FOX would show up daily on this site.

        See? Simple logic. You Righties should try it some time.

        It tells me that Fox News is a major source of information distorted to serve the FAR right agenda of some very wealthy people who are determined to treat us like mushrooms. Time and time again, when I seek out the actual source of some sound byte, I find that the quote in full is completely the opposite of what Fox has reported.

        Fox is the primary provider of conservative misinformation. I would point to Limbaugh and other talk-radio conservatives as other sources that MMfA has documented. Furthermore, there are journalists at the broadcast networks as well as the other 24-hour news networks that have been criticized by MMfA, including MSNBC (Joe Scarborough, Chris Matthews and Pat Buchanan, for example).

      Sean went to private school and still came out stupid. He failed in the seminary, and he failed as a business owner in construction. He couldn't hack it in college because of money issues, but I know plenty of people who had money issues and still graduated.

      I hope every teacher and parent throughout America, sends Fox News and Sean a loud message that there are good public schools out there.

      The debt has increased for every POTUS since Geo Washington. The deficit goes up and down from year to year, but, the debt has increased for every Prez. Debt and deficit are two totally different things. Look it up.
