Funyy how Scarborough takes a shot at Hannity.
Hannity's a pretty easy target. Yes, he seems to be a nice guy and his show is popular, but he has he tendency to be a bit, shall we say, repetitive. His idea of "argument" is to cite the same litany of talking points over and over, and he repeats bits ad nauseum. To quote my grandfather, Sean Hannity "couldn't ad lib a fart after a baked bean dinner".
He (and Dr. Laura, for that matter) should do the same thing: they really just get a variation on about 10 or so calls, e.g.: "Bush Sucks"; "Bush is great"; "Democrats are evil"; "Thank God we're in Iraq"; Will Hillary run/win?". He gives the same answer each time. He could work in lots more callers if he would just designate each call type with a number, and each answer with a letter. Like this:
Cue Theme Song:
Let boredom ring!
Let the white trash sing!
Let the whole world know, for three hours,
It's endless bickering.
Droning on and on,
Though he's "right", he's wrong!
He just might be gay,
Might wear a toupee',
It's Hannity today!
Hannity: Hello, how are you, welcome... As we roll along...time to go to our busy phones. Phil from Sacramento, you're on the Sean Hannity Show.
Phil: Seventeen, Sean.
Hannity: "Q", Phil.
Phil: Sean, you're a great American.
Hannity: No, Phil YOU'RE a great American. Let's see, who's next up? Marlene from Bismarck, you're next on the Sean Hannity show.
Marlene: Sean, I'm so nervous. I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed seeing you at the Cross-Eyed Cousin-Kisser music festival last weekend in Minot. You were great! When you hiccuped every time you said "Ted Kennedy", that was priceless!
Hannity: Thanks, Marlene. You know, we couldn't do it without you. What's on your mind?
Marlene: Six!
Hannity: "F", Marlene. And, hey, we're doing an appearance in Fargo on the twentieth, with Ted Nugent, Bill Bennett, and Martina McBride. Hope to see you there! Now more than ever, three hours a day, that's all we ask...
