Remember Saddam's Bombmaker, Khidir Hamza?....
You know, that guy Sean Hannity kept referring to - to try and scare his nitwit listeners into believing the Iraq lies?

Hamza made a career in the US out of providing bogus intel to the PNAC crowd who found him to be a "useful idiot" (my word).

Well according to the Independent newspaper of London, he has been "sacked" as a witness against Saddam Hussein. It appears he isn't all he trumped himself up to be.

So Sean Hannity, do you feel like you've been duped?...

I doubt it. You're actually part of the propaganda machine that feeds this garbage to, if its possible, people who know less about the world than you do.

here's the link to the story-

1. Hannity's not smart enough to realize he's been duped. n/t

4. He just reads what he is told to read
and he doesn't read too well.

I literally have yet to hear Hannity actually read straight out anything, such as newspaper articles, without stammering and screwing it up. Suddenly he appears on TV and has a radio show (he apparently for some reason HAS worked in radio for a while)..obviously just another voice to spread the BIG LIES.

2. I read his book when it came out shortly after 9-11
I thought the timing of the book release was oddly opportunistic. I gave the book to my dad (who worked in nuclear energy for years) to read. He thought the guy was full of crap, wildly over-exaggerating. My dad's politics are FAR to the right of mine, so I found his take on Khidir Hamza very interesting.

3. More Evidence to Send My Local Wingnut Twit
Not that he can be swayed by any amount of sense.
