A heads-up to those of you who will be protesting in NYC
I broke down and tuned briefly into Hannity's radio show during my ride home from work.

He was trashing the protestors, and encouraging his callers, on the sly, to violence.

With comments like, "Hey, you're just defending yourself if someone hits you first", etc.

He says that after calling the protestors every name in the book, and claiming liberals are the true violent people, and guaranteeing his callers that they will need to defend themselves against the mean, violent liberals who are guaranteed to throw the first punch.

5. not on my car radio
Air America is due to come here (Atlanta), but don't know when.

BTW -- Sean Hannity is broadcast on WSB/Atlanta, which is the best source for traffic and weather reports.

3. He says liberals are the true violent people?
And Fox pairs him with a wuss like Colmes.

That's funny.

4. I could see Brown Shirts acting in this manner.
They are not too far from that already.
I hope the protesters are very careful.
Don't GIVE them a excuse.

6. Bring 'em on!
Wouldn't it be great to have some footage of Freepers beating the crap out of peacful protestors? They can try to beat the shit out of me if it'll help put Kerry in the White House.

8. Negative portrayal of convention protesters was all
over the radio today. They are calling them - all of them - anarchists not demonstrators. They are purposely inciting anger
among their listeners. They want violence. They want to show America that KERRY'S left wing un-American liberals are angry flag burning commies.

Demonstrators, please take MLKs lead and avoid confrontation with right wing nuts. Yell and scream as loud as you can, but don't throw the first punch and don't burn the flag.
