Not So Fast: Hannity Not Leaving New York Quite Yet

[DonViejo]

CATHERINE THOMPSON – JANUARY 22, 2014, 7:09 AM EST

Fox News host Sean Hannity isn't about to pack up and leave New York in a huff for a more conservative-friendly home -- yet.

Hannity threatened to relocate on his radio show Monday, after New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said last week that there's no place for "extreme conservatives" in the state. But he told fellow Fox News host Greta Van Susteren on Tuesday that an immediate change isn't exactly feasible.

"I think people might have interpreted it that I'm leaving the next day. If I could I probably would, but I like to consider myself a responsible person," he said, adding that by his count over 100 people depend on jobs at his radio and television shows to pay their bills.

Hannity said he and his wife are seriously discussing leaving what he called the "United Socialist State of New York," however.

1. He backed away from being waterboarded, as well.

Miserable little chickenshit.

2. Well, guess NY isn't so bad afterall, Texas does not want him for sure.

4. Last night Hannity told Rick Perry he would be honored to become a citizen of........

The Republic of Texas.

5. Hannity is not capable of telling the truth

I am not surprised by haanity telling yet another lie

6. Hang on, let me make my surprised face....

7. So Sean is now a hero

staying and suffering in NY to protect those 100 jobs, see he is a job creator, a true Repuke hero. And I too am waiting for his waterboarding promise.

11. Yeah, you gotta love how they do that - create a crisis,

and then SOLVE it! Making yourself a hero! Woohoo!

8. '...I like to consider myself a responsible person," he said,'

[Beacool]

9. Hannity is a RW kook, no doubt about that.

But I've heard that when he's not bloviating his usual nonsense, that he's a decent guy (unlike arrogant a-holes like Limbaugh and O'Reilly). So he might really care about the welfare of his staffers.

10. I'm sure Slanthead would be heartily welcomed here in Ohio by the knuckle-draggers.

12. At least he's consistent.......

All bullshit........ALL the time.
