“Regular Guy” Hannity Smears Public School Students – Again

[ccharles000]

Multimillionaire Sean Hannity likes to present himself as a “regular guy” standing up against elitism. But once again he showed his true colors last night (6/5/09) when he smeared the overwhelming majority of Americans who happen to attend or have attended public schools. This is the second time in less than a month that Hannity has sneered at public school students. But later, in the same segment, Hannity got on his hypocritical high horse in order to wax Hanctimoniously about his concern for those in lower economic brackets - when it was politically expedient, of course. With video.

The discussion in the video below was about the May unemployment figures which, according to the unbalanced panel of Mike Huckabee and Fox Business' Sandra Smith, seemed to prove that Obama's stimulus plan is not working. “I'm not seeing any saved jobs, and I certainly haven't seen any created jobs,” Huckabee said with a big ol' smile, like it was the best news he'd heard since Arlen Specter became a Democrat.

“(The Obama administration was) actually bragging,” Hannity said scornfully. “They said, 'Well, we created 150,000 new jobs.' I was like 'Where did you go to school? (he hit the table repeatedly.) You must have been to a government school.'”

Neither of the guests seemed to care that Hannity had just insulted the approximately 90% of Americans who attend or have attended public school.

1. "Hannity Smears"

which is redundant if you think about it.

[Rex]

2. Hannity is a moran, a joke

a total cretin, second only to Billy O' IMO.

3. Compare any of Fox's shows with any of the truly "liberal" shows

like Olbermann, Maddow, Ed, Maher's "Real Time," and what do you see? That none of OUR people are afraid to debate them, not afraid to have them on. But the closest these people can get to a real liberal is Jesse Ventura, who isn't one but has been playing one on TV lately.

I'd call Hannity a weasel, but weasels don't deserve the comparison.

4. Bush, Hannity and the like prove that our 'ivy' league schools

are in need of some serious help. Perhaps, we should just eliminate them all together.

9. Hannity didn't graduate from ANY school, let alone an Ivy.

Shit, his full name could have been Harvard Yale Brown Hannity, and he still would have needed a hefty contribution from mommy and daddy just to get accepted to his local community college.

5. He used the phrase "government school." Is that the new talking point? k+r, n/t

[DrDan]

7. absolutely - neil boorz has been using that term for years

[ColbertWatcher]

11. The stupidity runs deep with these morans. n/t

[DrDan]

6. he is not smearing the students - he is smearing those

that are behind the funding of public schools.

He has been on a crusade against public schools for a long time - encouraging students to tape their classes - trying to catch a teacher espousing any liberal theme.

Just one more push for republican elitism. No taxes. School of choice. "my way or the highway".

8. If hannity is such a "regular guy"

Then maybe he'll let me use his private plane to fly overseas next month. Heck, it's a 15 plus hour trip and I'd rather fly in his first class type jet than in economy class like I'm going to. Oh wait, perhaps a public school educated working stiff regular guy like me has to merely take what he can get and stop wishing for something more.
It's been said many times by many people but I'll say it again. Hannity, kiss my ass! On second thought, I don't want those vile lips touching any part of my body.

10. Sean, don't you have to go build a nest out of your own bile

and then mate with Ann Coulter so you can produce some horrible little abominations that will crawl from the depths of Satan's asshole?
