A classic expose of how the Right/Bad Left/Good or vice versa emotional manipulation goes down. Not they expound on how the Foxies play on fear, but thru the article they turn it around to how the Left is just as fearful laden. This is what makes things just that much worse, and bodes bad for the future...

    The funny thing is that Sean Hannity stars in Atlas Shrugged! What What What? Hannity is definite spinster of information & that is what his show exists for, to mingle truth with lies & steer folks toward a certain conclusion. Masterfully done. Notice how in 2008 when Ron Paul was running for president, Hannity lambasted every idea Ron Paul had. Now, years later as Ron Paul's ideas have gained much popularity, Hannity acts as though he is a supporter of such ideas & always has been. He never mentions Ron Paul of course because that would smear egg in his face but he acts like he is a stalwart of economic & civil liberty. In this way, he can steer new converts or wannabes to the liberty movement into thinking that he is on their side. You watch, Hannity will steer them toward someone like Jeb Bush for president-lol. I say LOL but it really isnt that funny. Its sad. But what is Hannity doing in the movie Atlas shrugged anyways? He is a fake. A phoney. A charlatan. And I mean that in the realist possible way. I am not making fun, but stating fact.

      I agree, Hannity is a screaming Republican agent. If it is not in line with his party, it doesn't exist. He might as well move to CNN (Right) when they create it.

        I agree. Hannity is a water carrier. I've stopped watching his show except for some rare instances when he has an audience participation format. Most other times, I can't stand the obvious lack of critical thought.

        However, Megyn Kelly has more than made up for him. She is smart, inquisitive, fair, tenacious, and easy on the eyes.
