      Back to the old soviet boogyman... Well, since I am a fearful person, and I know soviets are bad, I shall heed Hannity's hollerin' and do my best to stay with my uninsurance that, remarkably, is free in our capitalistic utopia we call 'America'!

        Yeah, really! If these cons don't see that our unregulated markets have landed us in deep doo-doo, I may have to carpool them all down to Lenscrafters for some eye exams!

      Just look at those slackers making 8 grand or less. They should be ashamed at how little they pay in taxes. Are you kidding me?

      Sean probably drops 8 grand a month at strip joints.

        No, and it's totally unfair to think that they do.

        They sit around a big table - with limpaugh at the head - and carefully go through the Rove/Rush 13th edition dictionary and choose which buzzwords they string together. Then, 2 or 3 of them take Hanniturd aside and - using flashcards - drill him until he can't forget. Once limpaugh has used the buzzphrase on his show, that's the cue for them to start squawking.

        It's like a warehouse full of turkeys. Eerily so.

      i wonder what kind of teabagger protest would emerge with a distribution of wealth chart. fox's save the rich campaign is running thin, there are only so many indefensible positions they can hold at once.

      Why is Hannity calling in to Fox? Can't he just save this for his radio or tv show?

        Maybe they are so hard up for guests, they take turns going outside the studio and calling in. They have spent a lot of time interviewing each other, for a long time now.

      Hannity supported the Iraq war because it's patriotic to defend America. So, let's spend a trillion dollars and thousands of American lives and hundreds of thousand of foreign lives. That's good and okay to DEFEND America. We should all be happy to pay our taxes for that effort.

      To provide health care to those same Americans and make sure they are covered when struck with illness, that is not patriotic. That is evil.

      So to defend Americans is patriotic. To insure their health is evil.

      I don't even buy this hypocrisy. Hannity, Beck et al are in the business of catering to fear and hate. They spew nonsense that contradicts itself all the time, but it sells ads!

      I don't even have to hear this BS to know that republicans make me feel ashamed of being white. How asenine these pundits are.
      My God, socialism must be from the Anti-Christ!
      Look, I felt proud that Obama got elected. Then these racist jerks keep on doing the same thing over and over-race-baiting to make their point.
      Screw Sean, O'Reilly, and the rest of the bimbos at Fox. Are they ever going to wake up? I think not until we CALL THEM AT IT!

      I noticed that HANNITY is still pushing that line that the rich pay the majority of the tax burden which is nothing but a load of garbage. it is middle class that bears the vast majority of thetax burden. the rich have enough loopholes to sail an aircraft carrier through.
