Baracknophobia: Hannity, Bachmann, And Beck Terrified Of Obama - Video »
Posted By TimALoftis 8 months ago in Political News
Jon Stewart took on people "speaking crazy to power last night." Rep. Michele Bachmann recently said that President Obama is going to put our children in reeducation camps, and Sean Hannity congratulated her for her crusade against tyranny. Stewart followed this clip up with a litany of moves the Bush administration made to reduce American freedom, transparency, and state's rights, and said the pair were confusing "tyranny" and "losing."
But that's not all: Andrew Breitbart went on Sean Hannity's show and blamed Obama for his kids' school using the term "Potato Day" instead of "St. Patrick's Day." Stewart pointed out that this request probably didn't come from Obama himself, and that Potato Day is much more offensive than St. Patrick's Day.

Hannity was so funny, saying "tyranny"...he's a laugh...I really think he could be a comedian...
And Stewart's right...the Republicans have to pace themselves....they're going to get awfully tired of talking this way for 8 (count 'em, eight!), long (ever waited for a 1/2 mile long train to pass that's going 2 mph?) years...
Get used to it, Republicans/conservatives...! -

By succeeding you mean that you agree with the huge increase in government as well as the $2 trillion deficit plus this year and an ongoing $1 trillion deficit on into the future. If that does not scare you after the way you lambasted Bush about his miserly by comparison deficit then you have your head in the sand. Then he wants a carbon tax that will raise taxes on absolutely everyone. Companies will leave here and go to where the tax climate is better. I take it you are all gung ho about these things. Well they scare me because it puts our great great grandchildren into hock to pay for Obamas fantasy about how this country should be.

It is getting very dangerous in America. Perhaps it is time to ask whether those who finance violence are subject to arrest for treason.

Glenn Beck and the Rise of Fox News's Militia Media
.... "Go Kill Liberals!"
I wonder if Glenn Beck knows who Jim Adkisson is. Adkisson made headlines on July 28, 2008, when he brought his sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun into the Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee, and, after whipping it out of a guitar case, opened fire on parishioners while a group of schoolchildren performed songs up by the altar. Adkisson killed two people and wounded several others.
Adkisson, a 58-year-old unemployed truck driver, brought 70 shotgun shells with him to the church and assumed he'd keep killing until the police arrived on the scene and shot him dead as well. Instead, some members of the congregation were able to wrestle him to the ground and hold him for police.
When investigators went to Adkisson's home in search of a motive, as well as evidence for the pending trial, they found copies of Savage's Liberalism is a Mental Disorder, Let Freedom Ring by Sean Hannity, and The O'Reilly Factor, by Fox News' Bill O'Reilly. They also came across what was supposed to have been Adkisson's suicide note: a handwritten, four-page manifesto explaining his murderous actions. The one-word answer for his deed? Hate. The three-word answer? He hated liberals.
The only way we can rid ourselves of this evil is kill them in the streets. Kill them where they gather. I'd like to encourage other like minded people to do what I've done. If life aint worth living anymore don't just Kill yourself. Do something for your Country before you go. Go Kill Liberals!...

They really do sound psychotically, clinically depressed,
Reply
but Hannity has had to elevate and maintain his obsession with Obama because if he let it go he'd have to admit he was on a bender since March 2008..
(once the 18 month "stop Hillary express" ended)
It's like he keeps drinking to prevent a hangover!
He's SUPPOSED to be a "fair and balanced" newsman..The only one who has used THAT term more than him in the last 2 years is O'Reilly, and at least Bill is only 88% skewed in fairness..
if you look at any of Hannity's past 100 programs (you can go back even further and it will still be evident) he has always thrown anti-Obama mutterings and snide re,marks into every program..No matter what the topic..(even the week Paulson was under fire in August) he's obsessed.But since the election and he can't cause much more harm he's as funny as hell! -

Sean Hannity is right. He knows what he's talking about. He doesn't sound like the brain dead drones U hear on CNN and NBC and the rest of the nazi liberal media. Of course U can't explain that too fast to the average nazi liberal. The information processes too slow due to the appalling arrogance and blatant stupidity they demonstrate daily.

Well!

That isn't very nice of you.
'Appalling arrogance'? 'Blatant stupidity'?
Oh well.
The measure of a man, is not in who he hates;
but in who he admires.
You admire Mr. Hannity, and we will take our measure of you from that.
And to be fair, we should measure Mr. Hannity by those who admire him.
Ok; now I am not being nice. -

And if they tell, - will we listen?
And if we listen, - will we believe?
And if we believe, - will we also tell?
And if we tell, - will you listen?
And if you listen, - will you believe?
And if you believe,
- won't you still deny it because truth is what ought to be
true not what merely happens to be true?
I bet I would.

That is hilarious! No, they're not afraid of Obummer but they are terrified that his policies will destroy our country. John Steward is an Obummer sock puppet. Get over it liberal progressives none of us are afraid of wimps like you and your hero Obummer.

So, your method to solve the economic crisis is to??????
Reply
Do what???
You don't think we should spend money????
Oh that's right, you and your gang didn't even think we had a problem until
last fall...
Not afraid??
Cong. Bauchmann sure stirred up some pretty frightening scenarios...
Sean ate bit up like a full course meal..
All Stewart did was show the clips...
Someone has to expose the truth,..
(at least Stewart entertains us)
Oh yeah, and when Stewart was warning us what an ass Bush and most of his administration were, that is probably when you started hating him..He was wrong?????
Ahhh...NO..You were wrong THEN and you're compounding it now
(not that we;re surprised)

You know something? I can remember not so long ago when the Dems were frightened by the sitting president. There were lots and lots of things that were said my many many people on the left that sounded pretty crazy! Hmmmm. Isn't it funny when the shoe is on the other foot? The Dems had best get this out of their system as they face a certain landslide loss in the mid-term elections. Just keep it up, Obama. With each passing day, you certainly guarantee Republican gains in congress in 2010. Just think, what in the world will you do when you are unemployed in January 2013? Think about it.

I agree 100%. Keep apologizing Obama. You had a chance to really make a difference. But you are blowing it!!

On both Mr. Obama's performance and policies, independents are starting to look more like Republicans. For example, the most recent Fox News poll (taken March 31 to April 1) found that Mr. Obama's job approval among independents has fallen to 52%, down nine points from the start of March and down 12 points from late January. Over the same period, the number of independents who disapprove of Mr. Obama's performance has doubled to 32% from 16%.
The same poll also found that 76% of independents worry that government will spend too much to help the economy; only 12% worry it will spend too little. Independents oppose Mr. Obama's proposed budget by a 55%-37% margin.
If independents continue looking more like Republicans, especially on deficits, spending and the economy, Mr. Obama and congressional Democrats could be in for a rough ride.

Well I live in Cali. I have to agree, people be afraid of this man, President Barack Obama...coming to a town near you...to clean up corruption!

Corrupt mortage companies and banks who cheated people with bad loans under the Bush Administration are starting to talk to people & correct the bad loans they were permitted to extend under the Bush Administration.
Governor Arnold stepped out of the gym he was hanging around in, and had to submit a budget proposal accounting for every $ he was spending on his "buddies". Apparently, Arnie was giving kickbacks to State employees, whose practices are now under scrutiny & being investigated.
State employees who were abusing their power & harrassing small business owners under the Bush Admnistration, have suddenly stopped doing so.-

The Pew Research Center reported last week that President Barack Obama "has the most polarized early job approval of any president" since surveys began tracking this 40 years ago. The gap between Mr. Obama's approval rating among Democrats (88%) and Republicans (27%) is 61 points. This "approval gap" is 10 points bigger than George W. Bush's at this point in his presidency, despite Mr. Bush winning a bitterly contested election.

What's wrong with a simple understanding of the fact that we just don't like his policies.
This article is garbage.

We don't yet know the price Democrats will pay for Mr. Obama's fiscal radicalism. But we do know that no presidential hopeful in our lifetime has made bipartisanship more central to his candidacy and few presidents have devoted as many eloquent words to its importance. Yet no president in the past 40 years has done more to polarize America so much, so quickly. Mr. Obama has not come close to living up to his own standards. It took him less than 11 weeks to achieve the very opposite of what he promised. That, in its own regrettable way, is quite an achievement.

seems Beck, Hannuty, Bachman etc have all suffered a psychotic break of sorts.
Reply
tyranny, facsim, blah blah blah
the more people like Beck, Hannity and Bachman use these words, the crazier they sound, especially after their blind obedience during 8 years of Bush sh*tting all over the constitution, rolling back things like habeas corpus, the "legitimizing" of torture, and pushing ideas like the Unitary Executive Theory, which is an obvious move towards facism and about as unAmerican as you can get. -
