How can someone who consistently lies claim to be serving either his country or his party? And yet Sean Hannity is looked up to by millions of listeners each day who call his show and proclaim, “Oh, Sean, you’re a great American”. PLEASE!
Hannity is nothing more than a liar. He doesn’t report news, he doesn’t even comment on it very well, he makes stuff up, and his listeners suck the right-wing koolaid in through their audio IVs.
His biggest lie of late has been repeating over and over again how President Obama lied about cutting ear marks. Earth to Sean. The President never promised that. Your candidate, John McCain did. So, you’re basically saying the President is a liar because he didn’t keep McCain’s promises.
But, hey, don’t take my word for it, here’s what Hannity has been spewing.
The following is from the March 11 edition of Fox News’ Hannity: as reported by Media Matters.
Hannity said, “Barack Obama, in the debate with John McCain, said, “I’m going to go line by line. I’m going to eliminate all the earmarks.” Now, I think politically speaking, Barack Obama had a golden opportunity to stand up to his party and say, “I’m a man of my word, I promised the American people, and I’m going to keep it.” He didn’t do that. Was that a big mistake?
“If you say, “I’m going to go line by line, I’m gonna eliminate bad programs, I’m gonna eliminate all earmarks,” that seems to me like a broken promise.
“But is it petty if Barack Obama says, “I am going to go line by line and eliminate earmarks,” and the first bill he signs — 50 days into his administration — he signs a bill with 9,000 earmarks? That’s a broken pledge.”
Oh Sean, Sean, Sean, Sean. If McCain makes the promise; which he did; then how is it Obama’s promise? He – Obama – never said it. Therefore Mr. Hannity, you’re a bald faced liar.
Oh, and by the way Mr. Hannity, if we’re going to talk about broken promises, when are you going to be water boarded for the families of our fallen soldiers, like you said you would be?
