The Rocky Anderson/Sean Hannity event drew plenty of attention over the weekend.
An exclusive statewide KSL-TV poll by Survey USA finds most Utahns favored one of the two contestants in the Sean Hannity/Rocky Anderson debate.
Of 800 Utah adults polled by Survey USA, 46 percent say they watched or heard coverage about the event and 54 percent say they did not.
Of the 369 Utahns who say they watched or heard about it, some judged Anderson the winner. Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson said, "Given the scale, frequency and moral depravity of these outrages, President Bush must be held to account through impeachment and removal from office, if we do not call for accountability, we are complicit."
But largely conservative Utah liked what the conservative talk show host had to say more than the progressive Democrat from Salt Lake. More than half of those surveyed gave the nod to Sean Hannity. Only 24 percent of those surveyed said Rocky won.
Fox News Personality Sean Hannity said, "Did you in all of this talk about impeaching the president, all the platitudes, did you hear any solutions on how we're going to win the war on terror against people than want to destroy our cities. Did you hear anything about how to help our president win a war after one of the worst attacks in American history?"
When asked if the debate had changed their mind, the vast majority of those surveyed, 84 percent, said "no." Just 13 percent of the people said "yes."
The crowd Friday night resembled one at a World Wrestling Entertainment grudge match more than a presidential debate.
We asked if the rowdy and disruptive behavior was distracting, 73 percent say it was distracting, and 20 percent say it actually made it more enjoyable
Good thing he was debating a tree stump.
Oh God help me! I live in SLC {{{{{shudder}}}}}
Oh, I like Sean. He’s pulling the right direction. But beating up on Colmes is like beating a retard. After a while it gets to you and you can’t watch.
Notice how this is ordered: They first mention that “some” thought Anderson won. In the last part of the next paragraph, they actually report that more thought Hannity won. Now, the winner in most things (sports, politics, you name it) is almost always mentioned FIRST. That is, unless the author is writing about the author’s preferred or “home team,” then they of course get mentioned first...
Stupid liberal fool — OK, where is that bucket of kool-aid ??
Is the debate on youtube?
It was astoundingly amateur. Both lightweights. And Rocky? How did he ever get elected? Poor Ken Verdoia lowered himself to be in the ring with these two idiots. Quite the embarrassment for Salt Lake City. Good thing it wasn’t televised nationally.
I was surprised to see Ken Verdoia featured so prominantly in the PBS Doucumentary last week.
Did you watch it?
Don’t say the “M” word. I swear, I am being followed.
Ahhhhh....Thunderbird coffee in the morning!
And yes, I watched the special that has been driving the apologists up the wall. I am certain that some eyes have been opened. Dear wife’s sisters are quite a bit less defensive than before; just don’t want to talk about it.
I’m having Folgers. Ahhhh..uhhh..unghhhh.
This is one of the most enjoyable of the sins....come to think of it, they’re all pretty good, that’s what makes them sins. LOL
Good coffee in the morning, 3-4 ounces of any brand of good Tequila(or bourbon or vodka or scotch or gin) in the evening. Keeps the Binger running smooth. My sins are not sins, they are pleasures. I guess if old briggie figured the same way he knew he could really control people if he could convince them to obey section 89 in a new way. He pulled it off with many of them. Not himself though.
