Sean Hannity asks HOW his followers want to violently overthrow the U.S. Government
Edited on Tue Apr-14-09 01:09 PM by Ian David
How to Punish Hannity for Coup Provocation? Nail Him to a Swastika?



Crypto-nazi hatecaster Sean Hannity’s show has always been a rallying venue for the chickenhawk, militiaman, neonazi and neoconferederate crowds, but as the reaction to the savage looting of America grew and the prospects of an Obama Administration seemed more likely, Hannity grew ever more enraged and desperate, and finally, extreme to the point of advocating extra-political confrontation with “the extreme left” — basically anyone to the left of Julius Streicher.

Hannity had already been exposed as a neonazi sympathizer by The Nation a few years back, which reviewed his relationship with neonazi psychopath Hal Turner, host of his own webcast radio show, whom Hannity often had on to bark racist and crypto-genocidal madness. Still, one assumes, Hannity was just promoting a hypermilitarized fascist political philosophy that he hoped would win fairly at election, or simply finish overwhelming what was left of the GOP and transform America into the theocratic, fascist dystopia the founding fathers clearly had in mind.

Then fucktard Hannity hosted a poll on his website last week, asking his readers which revolution they endorsed: a military coup, armed rebellion, or war for secession. Every choice in the reader poll is clearly a threat to the current, duly and legally elected administration.

(It’s since been taken offline, but it is clearly a culmination of the insane, childish crap Hannity has been clumsily hinting at with blatherings about extra-political confrontation with the Left, as if America had one. His fuckwit-in-arms Glenn Beck dedicated a show to this question recently, again clumsily attempting to paint armed insurrection as a reaction to lawlessness on the Mexican border. Hey, Glenn, if you want to suck your own dick, try yoga and leave us out of it.)

As such, it is clear that Sean Hannity has marshaled his media resources to openly advocate the overthrow of the United States government and the assassination of an elected president, each of which lands squarely in the not-nice category and should get him some major noogies for treason.

4. The least violent that involves the public, Military coup
got the least number of votes. They voted for shooting someone themselves rather than letting the military do it.

23. They know the military is not on their side.
They like to pretend otherwise, but they know.

3. Is this a poll he posted? it looks like a message board to me
so it would be a member of his message board posting that poll, not Hannity himself.

12. Yes, it looks like a message board poll.
Since the admins removed the poll, I'm not sure how you can lay this at Hannity's feet. This would be similar to someone on DU posting a stupid poll and it being removed by mods.

14. If that is the case, you are correct
I do not like it when the right plays this goofy guilt by association game, and I certainly will not make myself a hypocrite and participate in this from the left.

Bill O'Reilly is the only one I know of who tries this crap (uses Daily Kos posts to try to smear elected Democrats)...there is no way I would engage in Robo the Loofah-man's favorite tactics no matter how politically advantageous.

25. Except he, the gang at Fox, VP-contender Palin & so many others are inciting this behavior
They throw the rock and hide their hands - each and every one of them.

There's a reason the moneyed-men are bamboozling the closed-minded, out-right bigots and intellectually-stunted Americans, and it has nothing to do with whatever bullshit they're feeding the masses.

It has to do with control, power, our military and the Treasury.

Those inciting America are well-compensated pawns.

If they believed what they purport, they would have incited taking up those so-called arms over a real hot-bedded issue - that the United States government was/is illegally wiretapping Americans citizens. If they could pin that on Obama, oh boy, that certainly would get the nut's dander up. Rightfully, so!

5. If anyone (and, I do mean anyone) stood face to face with Hannity and
threatened to punch him, Hannity would shit in his drawers.

Hannity is a fucking blowhard coward.

18. Sedition during wartime
Are sedition laws still on the books? During previous wars, such incitement to violence resulted in indeterminate prison terms. I would absolutely support jailing Hannity for sedition and treason.

19. Hannity is a worthless sack of shite.
Look up "douchebag" in the dictionary, & you'll see his picture. He is the poster child for reproductive choice. I really despise that asswipe.

OK, I know some DUers hate the word "douchebag," but it fits Hannity to a T!

32. My how times have changed....
This is the same guy that was telling people, under President Bush, that if you criticize the President you are a traitor as we (the US) are at war. Well, we are still in Iraq. So what's changed? Oh yeah, we no longer have a neocon in the White House. :bounce:

33. I think they are really upset that a black man is our President but won't say it.
I really think that racism is behind all of this. The anti-left emails I have seen all have racist undertones like he really isn't a US citizen, he is a Muslim, he is a narcissist and on and on.

35. And replace the Constitution with what?
How is just a masturbatory fantasy for these troglodytes who place ideology over Constitutional prerogatives. Their pre-Cro-Magnon brains have not developed enough to conceive of what they would actually replace the 220 year old system of government they dream of overthrowing. Would they just revert back to the pre-Constitutional Articles of Confederation? No, that would actually require thought too. Apparently, in their puerile processes that resemble thought, just overthrow the government and God will make all right. :eyes:

39. Because of the first amendment
Like it or not, most of this stuff is protected under the first amendment. It is true that you can't directly threaten the President's life. But other than that, this speech is pretty much protected.

That said, this sort of behavior is almost certainly probable cause for the Secret Service and the FBI to listening in on his phone calls.

42. Does anyone remember Bush saying to Obama about the illegal wiretaps and
related? He said "you will thank me for it later". What did Bush know and when did he know it? Bastard.

43. I dunno, but this has nothing to do with illegal wiretaps
I'm sure that if the FBI and the Secret Service feel that these people are a legitimate threat to the President or the coutnry, they could easily convince a judge to give them a warrant.
