Well it didn't take long


apologies if this has already been posted but...

anybody catch a segment on Hannity last night? I was surfing, getting whatever storm coverage I could, and stopped on Faux News (I know, my bad). At that particular point in time, Hannity had a Christian family on his show, whose family member had been killed in the storm. The dead individuals father, brother, and his brothers two teenage daughters. They of course blamed Obama was responsible for their loved ones death. Claimed that the White House "cancelled orders to save the man's life". Of course they were a good Christian family, and "forgive" Obama. Hannity of course chimed in with commentary of "How can you forgive? I'd be outraged!!"

Now of course I sympathize with the death of their loved one. But while the body is still warm, they gather together on public airwaves and politicize their loved one's death, making outlandish claims without a shred of evidence, because they don't like the president? Sick fucks! And of course Hannity is all too eager to give them the proper forum, though that is hardly surprising.

Had to keep surfing at that point, as my stomach couldn't take any more. Anyone else catch this? Or was it a bad dream on my part?

(Just like what Heckuva Job Brownie said).

It seems to me that RWers will soon be speaking pure gibberish, free of any restrictions placed by logic or grammar.

They can't pick and choose and split and divide what tragic events are God's will and which ones aren't. If things monstrous men do to other humans are considered God's intention then the death of their loved one should also be considered God's intention. I'm so sick of those two faced hypocrites. STFU Hannity, you are a despicable predator.

12. You are correct. The segment was with family

of one of the ex Navy Seals killed in Benghazi. Hannity played the father like a violin - Mother says that Hillary Clinton "lied to her", etc. etc. Just more beneath contempt performance by the great schmuck of Hannity.

And that's if I ignore the fact that they supposedly lost a loved one only hours ago.

Anyone care to translate from RW idiot-speak to English?
