Sean Hannity Takes Sen. McCain To The Woodshed Over Anti-Tea Party Remarks (Video)
MEDIAITE ^ | 07/27/11 | Frances Martel

Posted on 07/27/2011 7:48:12 PM PDT by Cecilia Trent

Sen. John McCain ruffled America’s already disheveled political feathers today with a Senate floor rant mocking the Tea Party’s position on the debt ceiling debate comparing them to hobbits and disparaging them for turning Sharron Angle and Christine O’Donnell into Republican nominees. Unsurprisingly, Sean Hannity had a bone to pick with the senator tonight on those comments, and on his opinion that the Republicans will get the blame for a debt default if they do not compromise.

Hannity came out swinging at Sen. McCain, wondering why the senator had turned on the Tea Party– “why not attack the President?” Sen. McCain corrected that he did intend to attack the Tea Party but that he disagreed with their obstinacy, especially if it would mean a plan like that of Sen. Harry Reid’s– “one of the most flimsy, transparent, phony spending cut things, proposals, that I’ve ever seen”– being put into law. The alternative to Hannity, however, was Republicans “competing with themselves, which infuriates me a little bit.” He noted that the Rep. Paul Ryan plan in the House was a good start, and that “the House Republicans voted to repeal Obamacare,” all things it frustrated him not to see in the Senate.

I wish the camera had been left on him so we could have seen his fake smile turn into white hot anger. You KNOW he was pissed. I’m sure he yanked the mic off and said “I’ll never do this show again!”

“My friends”? I’d love to be in a room with him and say “Who the hell are you talking to?”

Ok Juan, so this isn’t the time to take a stand. You’ve been in Washington for 30 years. Just tell us. When will the right time come?

Wake up you pampered pimpernel. The can has hit the wall.

“Does this make up for all the other times when Hannity kissed Captain Queeg’s ass?”

I missed it. Did Capt. Queeg roll the marbles around in his hand and have that classic Humphrey paranoid look?

“I’ll tell you what; I’ve been very critical of Hannity in the past with his softball treatment of guys like McCain, but Hannity has been on fire lately.”

Couldn’t agree more - Hannity has been at the front line in this battle - he’s had all the key congressman and senators on his show and he’s held their feet to the fire.

Levin has been right there with him as well, and has provided some of the best rallying rants.

The iceing on the cake tonight was Michelle Malkin taking one deep breath and bening mccane over the pickle barrel, and with one massive pelvic thrust verbally sodomize that prick. Good for Michelle

McCain is the reason the budget never gets cut.

When the 1% idea is suggested, McCain states that VA benefits cannot be cut 6% in 6 years.

What he refuses to recognize is that EVERY program needs to be cut.
