In response to the previous article Sean Hannity continues demonization of Ron Paul, calling his supporters crazy , youtube poster SaveOurSovereignty3 has posted the full audio of the Ron Paul caller, George from Chicago, who managed to orchestrate a skillful masterpiece in calling Hannity out for being a "spokesman for the merchants of death". Hannity had called Ron Paul nuts a few weeks ago while interviewing Chuck Norris, and had smeared Ron Paul continuously during the 2008 presidential campaign, claiming that the 9/11 Commission report and CIA admissions were 'conspiracy theories'.
Hannity began the Monday, December 14th, 2009 segment by reading an article about a bill sponsored by Ron Paul, not missing a chance to denigrate Congressman Paul and his "followers":
Hannity: "'A Republican and Democrat have put forward legislation that would rescind the automatic pay increase lawmakers are slated to recieve in 2011'. Ron Paul- yes- and by the way some of Ron Paul's followers are nuts but Ron Paul I like him , I like him a lot of the times. We got
George in Chicago WLS , George hi."
George: "Hi Sean, maybe President Obama should stuff you into a bunker and call you an ememy cobmatant..." Sean laughs and they then proceed to have a discussion about Khalid Sheik Mohammed, with the caller continuing "if you concede that the federal government can hold whomever they want then youre conceding that President Obama can hold you and [Mark] Levin and throw you guys in a bunker and call you enemy combatants."
Hannity: "Are we gonna be held in the same bunker or do I get my own private bunker?"
George: "I dont know, but you should check out Sibel Edmonds, who that guy was just talking about before you..
Hannity immediately cuts off the caller's reference to Edmonds and begins discussing military tribunals , with the caller skillfully interrupting "..yeah and we have the most corrupt govenrment in the world, the biggest world empire.. and you're a violent imperialist."
Hannity: "I'm a violent what? Whats violent about me?
George: "Because you love death destruction and murder, you're a spokesman for the merchants of death Sean Hannity. The military industrial complex owns you- it's time to wake up and be a Ron Paul Republican".
Hannity: "What is the military industrial complex?
George: "Raytheon G.E., I could go on and on with all the- Northrup Grumman, I mean you can go on and on, you act like the pentagon isn't the biggest socialist part of our government Sean."
Hannity: "They own me; is that what youre saying?"
George: "You're a spokesman for the merchants of death."
Hannity: "I'm a 'spokesman for the merchants of death'. And what do you suggest that we do, do we not have a national defense?
George: "Certainly, but they shouldn't be controlling our government the way they do now".
The caller continues to lead the dicsussion by bringing up big corporate welfare.
George: "You think Raytheon is free? Do you think those guys don't get massive tax benefits?
Hannity: "I think the fact that we have great companies that create great, uh, defense weapons that keep us safe is fantastic. yeah, i think its wonderful. So I'm part of the industrial military complex that you discuss. Because I believe in security and safety and liberty and freedom and everything else that is associated with it.
"Folks, Ron Paul for president, trust me. This is.. this .. this is part of what you get. and i like Ron Paul, and Ron Paul's right on a few things. but he's not right.. some of his followers are nuts. uh.. yes that will get a lot of play.
"Folks this is where my buddy Neal Boortz gets into trouble. Neal Boortz says he's for a national defense and he is for the war on terror, and he's excoriated by members of the libertarian party when he single-handedly has done more to advance libertarianism for the last 30 years than anybody I know.
"And it's sad that you get these quote extremists that fundamentally dont understand that they dont even have freedom of speech but for a military complex".

So much for Hannity. I find it odd that as a Conservative all I had to look forward to from Rush AND Hannity was "The November 2010 elections and God forbid a 3rd party". November 2010 is WAY too late. and we keep voting in the same Republican scumbags along with the Democratic Scumbags.
The combination of our blindly following the Dem-Rep two party charade and counting on "voting" to change things has gotten us NOWHERE!!!!! Correction it has gotten us less than Zero! How the F--- bad can a 3rd party be than THIS!!!
Hannity is an assclown, nobody is really buying his BS anymore.
My name is Alexander Snitker. I am the Libertarian candidate for the US Senate. If you are reading this thank you for giving me a few minutes of your time. I am trying to fight the 2 party system and I need your help. Please log onto my website and read over my ideas and ask yourself one question. Would you consider voting for me?
Now I know that there are people that will say “We cannot split the vote but I like what you have to say” or “ A third party candidate doesn’t stand a chance” or “ I will not be able to get even footing against my competition”
What if I had a plan to show that there is enough support for me to WIN?
Well today is your lucky day because I have a plan to overcome the objections above. If I can get 2,000,000 subscribers to my weekly campaign newsletter that would consider voting for me it would get me the even footing that I need.

Sean Hannity and fellow jack ass Mark levin interpretation of the first amendment "Freedom of speech only to those that agree with them". The people that listen to these type of idiocy need to wake up and think for themselves. Your gullibility is making them rich. Ratings and book sales is their sole agenda. They could care less about you or this country
How can Hannity simultaneously believe in "security and safety" and "liberty and freedom" since they are mutually exclusive things? Oh yeah, because Hannity is the one who is "nuts".
IMHO, why just a third party? For that matter, why any party? We really have only one party because they act the same regardless of what they call themselves. None of them (save for Ron Paul) defend or support the Constitution and that is why we, today, don't have the freedom and liberty spoken of in that venerable document. They all, with exception of one, are the touchy/feely critters that spend us into oblivion, collect their massive pay checks with automatic pay increases, avail themselves to the perks of government and the lobbyists, almost never lose money in the stock market and set themselves up for a very lucreative post-government career after looting the taxpayer. It should be clear to everyone here on this topic that our vote is a useless exercise in futility. Some body of elites run whoever is elected. Nothing ever gets done the Constitutional way and that is why Ron Paul is so often on the loosing end of legislation he proposes even with 317 cosponsors.
Hannity's always deep-throating Israeli schlong
I hate neoconservative pundits like Hannity. And neoliberal pundits like James Carville. They're political pimps.
Hannity is a foolish neocon. He thinks calling himself a "Reagan Republican" is some great honor. Mr. Reagan was a HUGE government spender who created unprecendented debt, dramatically increased foreign aid, the costly (both in money and liberty) war on drugs, doubled the Depts. of Energy and Education after vowing to eliminate them while running for president, increased trade barriers and dramatically increased the federal workforce.
Little is truly conservative about Sean Hannity. He is only conservative in the Kristol version of conservatism.
Little Mr. Hannity is a moron. He's really too stupid to engage in a conversation. He started in Atlanta and I heard his first conversation with Newtie Fraud Gingrich. I thought that little Sean would wet his pants. He truly knows nothing. He's a parrot. If that other jerk Limbaugh says something, he accepts it as gospel. Now he thinks he's smart, too. Incredible, you couldn't write this stuff. As for Boortz being a "libertarian", it would be like calling me a vegetarian because I don't eat meat on Friday. Boortz, like Hannity, Limbaugh, et al, is a neocon --- even though he realize it.
I wrote the first comment.I Am MORE than dissapointed with Limbaugh and Hannity And Levin. Together they could have stopped this insanity that is the Liberal/Communist bankster takeover of our country, WITH implicit Republican support.
BUT Mark Levin is right about the 1st amendment and other constitutional issues. I have found profound censorship on Liberal Websites and Blogs. In addition to the MSM and all we know about how they trash EVERYTHING Conservative and lie and Bias the their reporting.
I believe in what Hannity, Limbaugh and Levin SAY about our Constitutional Republic. I am just FED UP with what they offer up as solutions.
Why is this guy still on the tv and radio? Are we not MEN? Is this not OUR COUNTRY? He gets a one-way ticket to IsraeLie, or we cut his balls off and release him. What's it gonna be Sean, you traitor p.o.s.?
Please don't link to Alex Jones's site. Alex is a propagandist and he undermines Dr. Paul's message of freedom. It's a pity so many have bought AJ's whole act hook, line, and sinker. They are the real sheeple in this country, moreso than even Obama worshipers.
EVERY channel on tv is owned by the worldgov't Cabal. Beck,all of them are just paid sockpuppets. Spread the word on Ron Paul!
I'm a Ron Paul supporter, but Hannity is right. Some supporters ARE nuts and they DO give Ron Paul a bad name -- and are the reason his movement doesn't seem to go anywhere.
If libertarians could only learn not to eat their young....
Ron Paul supporters usually have some semblance of the big picture.
This is America. There are lots of 'nuts' in this Country. Ron Paul supporters, Obama supporters, Ralph Nader supporters, right-wing, left-wing -- what difference does any of that make? I see nuts everyday talking and texting on their phones in rush hour traffic. I think these people are nuts. And some of them even have praise to Obama stickers. So should we say some of Obama's supporters are nuts? I think we should. After-all, look how most of them supported health care reform without even knowing the details, only to have most all of the proposed reforms shot down, including the beloved public option.
I think this guy has valid points. Sean Hannity is a spokesman for the merchants of death. After all, he was a huge Bush supporter and supporter of things like Patriot Act and torture.
I'll tell you what I think - I think Sean Hannity is nuts. He's absolutely loony. Better yet I think he's a f'in putz. Why does anyone listen to his show in the first place? He's an AS
To start, im not an activist or college educated. second,I have nothing against them. I do know when I see and hear a dirty little boot licker(s)and I really hate to give that dirt bag(s) any pleasure in hearing his own name. sean h. makes me sick to my stomach along with those other yahoos at fox.. I realize Ive just slipped 10 rungs down the E ladder just saying that <name> wake up america!!!!
Hey, it's snowing in a lot of the country. If any Ron Paul supporters see Hannity, be sure to tag him with a snowball like last year.

Hannity is full of Israhell spuge. Bet you he takes it up his rear...
Good for Hannity! We have far too many leftwing nutballs in our Libertarian movement, posing as "Libertarians," when they're really Movon.org/ACORN types. They just use our word "Libertarian" cause they think it's cool.
Libertarian means Pro-Defense, not Pro-Surrender. We Libertarians fiercely oppose Islamo-Fascism and support the Military. We come from Goldwater, Ayn Rand, and Milton Friedman all three who supported a strong policy against the Soviet Union.
Hey leftwingers, how about kindly getting the hell out of my Libertarian movement.
Eric Dondero, 25+ Year Libertarian Party member
Blow it out your bottom, Hannity. Your kind of crazy makes my scalp ache.
Eric Dondero? I thought you were the leper of the Libertarian Community. It seems everytime you post on NolanChart, LibertyMaven, Reason, et al, people just laugh at you for being an insipid pro-death tool who's afraid of some cave dwellers. It's ironic you rail against the liberals (still stuck in the left/right paradigm I see), yet you're just like your liberal hero Madeline Albright who thinks the Iraq war, that's taken about half-a-million dead Iraqi children, was "worth it"!
... how quaint.
Correction: "that's taken the lives of half-a-million Iraqi children."
Clarification: A hyperbole, sure. I doubt the numbers are that skewed or bias, though. And before you spew your drivel, I'm sure 99% of those deaths were not intentional, but when I see the effects of depleted uranium on these kids and newborns, it disgusts me to see chicken-hawks like you call for the continuation of what's ultimately, a perpetual war. You're arrogance is beyond me, but history is not, so keep digging, cause the Great American Empire will be joining all the graveyards other failed empires that died in Afghanistan (Vietnamistan).
Sean Hannity is being a baby. He's a well-to-do, high brow FOX newscaster who can't get beyond the way Ron Paul supporters questioned and taunted him on the street last year. His ego is so bloated that it would fill a large auditorium. Grow up, Hannity, you infantile jerk! This isn't just about your hurt feelings and most people are tired of having you mix your vengeful feelings about Ron Paul with what is best of the country.
Give Sean a break. I really think he's trying to be conservative and he truly thinks he is standing up for conservatism. Glenn Beck used to be the same way until he actually read what the founding fathers had to say. Then he "woke up" and realized Ron Paul and the FF were mirrors. Sean will wake up too someday. Until then, at least he's right 90% of the time. Most importantly, the constitution calls for a strong national defense, not a national offense.
I think we should test out our new "United States does not torture!" waterboarding technics on Sean Hannity. He's just such a huge supporter of these wars and all the pro-war Neocons, so I'd really like to see him get down and dirty in the blood and guts of it all!
P.S. Don't be scared, Sean. It won't hurt as much as those big, bad snowballs those nasty people threw at you because you wouldn't shut your mouth up about how Ron Paul supporters were such terrorists! ouch! Mommy!!!!
This is why I despise most conservatives. They claim Obama is a socialist, yet fall over lockstep for national socialism.
hannity has "big truck syndrome".
i also would like to take this oppurtunity to laugh at Eric Dondero's existance. He's got to be the most famous troll alive.
Seriously? Hannity doesn't know the term "military industrial complex?" It was Republican President and former General Dwight D. Eisenhower who coined the phrase in his farewell address, as he warned us about its growing power.
I remember Hannity a while back wasn't even familiar with the definition of what a neoconservative was. What sort of political analyist is he?
Sean Hannity loves big government! Sean Hannity believes in the American empire, with troops in over 145 countries. Military nation building is the most extreme big government policy possible.
Hannity and most everyone at Fox (except Andrew Napolitano) lost all my respect during the 2008 campaign. Obama has half the country suckered, and Hannity et al have the other half suckered. We're doomed...
Sean Hannity will follow the money & ratings.
Nothing wrong with him that a good, through reading of The Declaration Of Independence, the US Constitution and Bill of Rights won't correct.
KSM has the same "rights" as any US Citizen.
That's because his rights come from his Creator - and not the US "government".
The Declaration of Independence is part of the Us Code and is classic Thomas Jefferson & James Madison. It doesn't matter what the Supreme Court has rule. These are the same folks who ruled Dread Scot had no rights and ruled for slavery.
Hannity will "wake up" as soon as his listeners MAKE him wake him up.
I quit watching Hannity the kook when I saw he had pathetic Ralph Reed, the unconvicted crook and phony Christian, on his show as a "conservative" voice. What a crock!!
Sean is VERY aware of his local benefactors!
Take a look at New York's ethnic/financial demographics and you'll understand his slavish devotion to our Mideast foreign policy.
He even formed "Social Conservatives for Rudy Giuliani" during the 3008 primary race, in full knowldedge of where "America's Mayor" stood regarding sodomy and pre-natal infanticide.
Believe me, he knows who to "suck up" to!
It appears to me that the nuts have won. Ron Paul supporters nuts? I don't think so, but then the reason the nuts have won is that the real patriots are not known for who they really are. Of
course those would be the Ron Paul people.
The only "message" Sean will ever understand is the one without any dollars attached to it. Like, say, a pink slip because there are no ratings to support him. So long as he has goof balls listening and cheering him on you can count on his continued belligerence beaming from sea to shining sea. That's the true price of freedom, something Sean has a hard to admitting, that in a free country you're going to hear, and see, things you don't like. If you or I haven't the freedom to say, "No", then what imaginary "freedoms" does Sean and his ilk pretend to defend? As I've told friends and family, I guess the only freedom you have is the freedom to shut up and do as you're told. That, in a "nut"shell says everything.
Look folks, Sean Hannity will "never" allow the truth to sink in if it exposes anything dirty about the party he has undying loyalty towards which is the Republican Party. He doesn't get it that both parties have become one in the same. The republicans may holler once in awhile that they are for this or they are for that, but truth be told.........anyone who dismisses the constitution as a way to run our government, is not being truthful when they say they love freedom, liberty & all the benefits that go with it. This is the same Sean Hannity that thought George Bush could do no wrong....so what do you expect him to be like? Why do you think he has the same old retreads on his show all the time? The Hannity's, Gingrich's, North's, Rove's, Cheney's and William Kristol's of the world have one thing in common. They will not let anything get in the way of their agenda. Just look up the PNAC and see who authored it and what it's purpose was. Ron Paul represents everything they despise.
I don't understand how someone like Dondero can equate "Libertarian" with a sense of identical unity - to the point of telling dissenters from HIS view on foreign policy to "get out". The essence of libertarianism, the heart of Libertarianism (cap-L), is non-aggression - totally antipodal to this "take my top-down orders or get lost" attitude and the stationing of US troops in more than 170 countries worldwide (as boasted weekly during statist NFL broadcasts).
If that is libertarianism, I'd like to station some of my own heavily armed watchmen and killer drones on Dondero's property 24/7. For my own self defense, of course.
Hannity is a water carrier for the republican crime family as Keith Oberman is a shill for the democratic crime family. These pablem spewers play the same two party game as our supposed representatives. It shouldn't be a secret both despise the people that crash the party with the truth.
Sean Hannity is quoted:
"Neal Boortz says he's for a national defense and he is for the war on terror, and he's excoriated by members of the libertarian party when he single-handedly has done more to advance libertarianism for the last 30 years than anybody I know."
Huh? I'm a small-l libertarian, and for many years I've spent lots of time -- too much time, my family would say -- reading and writing on libertarian websites and discussion groups. And I almost never run into anything about this Boortz character.
Indeed, about all Boortz is known for (at least among those who don't listen to his radio show or whatever it is he does to put out his message) is that he's a big war whooper (against countries on the other side of the world who never attacked us) and promoter of a national sales tax.
In other words, Boortz is to be a self-styled libertarian specializing in promoting positions antithetical to libertarianism. Can you spell the word "shill," gentle reader?
Hannity is always telling about how Catholic he is. Well, he doesn't know his
Catholicism very well. When a Catholic or anyone else spreads a lie about
someone, he is commiting murder. Yes, murder to ones reputation etc.
He is always telling how Machimadid or what ever his name is that he
stated that he wanted to wipe Israel off the map. This man never said any
thing of the sort. Hannity lied! I have the speech and I can forward it to
anyone that wants it. Hannity should check his sources before he commits
murder against anyone and I have no love for this Iranian.
Another thing. This president of Iran does not have any power. He cannot,
I repeat, he cannot send any bombs or any type of weapons to Israel. He
is only a figurehead.
So, according to the Catholic religion, everytime Hannity tells a lie about
anyone, he is guilty of murder. Maybe not physically, but, against his
reputation and that is the same thing as murder. Check with a valid Prie
Ladies and Gentlemen ... every single one of these "talk show" personalities (televised or otherwise) are paid to entertain you.
They are lying to you and have been for decades.
You have to be smart enough to empower yourselves, while stripping away theirs by turning them off and letting their ratings drop.
They deserve to be unemployed, it would be better if they were.
Do not take sides. BOTH sides are wings of the same bird and the debate is rigged.
Hannity is a two party fraud scripted actor. He never, ever, strays outside the phony "left/right" parameter of approved Beltway "debate". His "conservatism" is nothing more than worship of the gargantuan federal military and its attendant police state "intelligence" organs mixed in with cynical appeals to white middle class tribalism that have little, if anything to do with "small government".
It is the job of people like Hannity to render conservative and libertarian movements impotent by misdirecting their anger at big government to convenient scapegoats like illegals, or "welfare queens", or insignificant bogey man organizations like "ACORN". Anything to keep the focus of the Empire or the MIC.
He is a stooge of DC oligarchs and the corporate parasites of the MIC that wouldn't exist but for government spending.
hannity calls ron paul supporters nuts b/c he fears their passion...when you're right and you no longer hypocritical or incongruent, passion is born. it is the passion that hannity (right) and krugman (left) call nuts. Long live Hans Hoppe!

I ran across this in an RSS feed. Who the hell is this guy, LOL!!!! Sean Hannity is for the sheep. You will never see a judge execute the arrest warrant he issues. You will never see Sean Hannity accept the responsibilty of his work and effort is used to kill with impunity. He has others do his dirty work for him...
Stop participating, hence stop funding tyranny. I began developing my very own talents and resources, even though they are frowned upon because I am not licensed, or approved of by some gang calling themselves government. I trade my services for the things I need and want. I don't steal other peoples money.
Pay no attention to Hannity. For years he has been trying to get Joe Leiberman to become a republican. Imagine that-one of the most liberal Senators ever becoming a republican just to get a majority. I suppose that ol' Joe would just throw away his values and vote party lines. Is Hannity that stupid? You bet he is!
Hannity is the 'nut' as obviously he doesn't understand the Principals of the Constitution. He needs to go back to school.
