Congressman Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) had an amazingly heated discussion with Fox News's Sean Hannity Tuesday evening.
At the beginning of the six-minute slugfest, Ellison called his host "the worst excuse for a journalist I've ever seen" leading to a truly ugly encounter that culminated in Hannity ending the interview by saying to his guest, "You are a total waste of time"
Hannity isn’t a journalist he’s a political commentator. Not knowing the difference proves Ellison’s pathetic stupidity.
I’m sure he get’s all of his news from the Daily Show.
Scary is that Ellison is correct about Hannity “not being much of a journalist”....scary I am saying that about Ellison
Maybe Ellison should have just said he was an Illegal Alien, and he would have got Hannity Amnesty
I’m surprised the people in Ellison’s district didn’t elect a Nazi to Congress during World War 2.
I don’t know what’s going on here in Mn, but I’m sick of it. Getting involved by invite from my State Senator.
Hannity is not a journalist, asshat.
Liberals/marxists will butcher Hannity and his fellow travelers like hogs the minute they get the chance...you know what they say about ‘nice guys’...
I saw the exchange and agree with your assessment. I have been wondering if whether or not Hannity is a shill for leftist causes. He puts on the leftists who always manage to get their talking points out to the viewer. FOX may be a subtle leftist station.
I saw a few minutes of it. Ellison is a complete idiot. Shows how stupid voters are in MN. I wish they had been face to face and Hannity would have punched him in the face.
I know that the old socialist/marxist/communist Democratic Farmer-Labor Party still has some remnants there but the state is producing little Karl Marx’s faster than we can uncover them.
When the Democrats merged with the Farmer Labor Party, the latter brought in a lot of Commies. Gus Hall, the longtime CPUSA presidential candidate, was from around Duluth. Hubert Humphrey drove most of them out. But now they’re back.
I left Minnesota a year and a half ago to return to Texas. Minnesota is hopeless.
“By letting the idiot raghead rant on Hannity let Ellison destroy himself forever.”
Spot on! When someone is destroying himself on national TV, the first thing to do is not to interfere.
Hannity did an excellent rope-a-dope with the Minnesota muzzie.
Ellison. Franken. Ventura. Minnesota. ‘Nuff said.
You forgot voter fraud, crooked secretary of state and biased state supreme court judges.
Hannity was a fool to invite this this person on the program. He should have known better. You don’t argue with rapid skunks.
rapid = rabid....
From my short law enforcement career one thing I learned, when questioning someone just let them talk. The more they talk the more they incriminate themselves, I suspect allot of useful ammo came from that long winded rant.
I must have been watching a different program. Letting that dude continue to speak just reinforced the fact that he had very low IQ and could not participate in an intelligent conversation.
Out Country truly is doomed with folks like that as elected representatives of the people. Ask yourself this question. If every member of congress and the senate had the mindset of that guest, what do you think would happen to anyone who was not supportive of the current administration. Scary times.
That is why Hannity has so many liberal guests, because he does not make them into the fools they are.
you can not argue with a fool, you have to
hang up.
Keith Ellison is my rep. his office is less than a mile from my house.
I humbly apologize to the world for not working hard enough to keep the jack a$$ out of office. He is the worst excuse for a congressman I have ever seen.
When I call his office to voice my opinion they just blow me off, even his staffers are a-holes.
Below is the receipt for payment!!!!!!!!!!
At least 618,000 Americans died in the Civil War, and some experts say the toll reached 700,000. The number that is most often quoted is 620,000. At any rate, these casualties exceed the nation's loss in all its other wars, from the Revolution through Vietnam.
The Union armies had from 2,500,000 to 2,750,000 men. Their losses, by the best estimates: Battle deaths: 110,070 Disease, etc.: 250,152 Total 360,222
The Confederate strength, known less accurately because of missing records, was from 750,000 to 1,250,000. Its estimated losses: Battle deaths: 94,000 Disease, etc.: 164,000 Total 258,000
The leading authority on casualties of the war, Thomas L. Livermore, admitting the handicap of poor records in some cases, studied 48 of the war's battles and concluded: Of every 1,000 Federals in battle, 112 were wounded. Of every 1,000 Confederates, 150 were hit. Mortality was greater among Confederate wounded, because of inferior medical service. The great battles, in terms of their toll in dead, wounded, and missing is listed on this site:
The Ten Costliest Battles of the Civil War.
Slavery was and is an odious and sinister institution and the blood and death was necessary to remove this evil. This evil was like a cancer eating at the soul of the nation and had to be excised from the nation for its survival. The price was high and it was necessary. It should also be noted that it many countries that share Mr. Elision's religion that slavery is still practiced. Reparations have been paid, and it was paid in blood, death, injuries and carnage.
PS I visited a very old cemetery in Massachusetts and was looking at the gravestones. I noticed a peculiar pattern in the deaths. Many women of child bearing age and young men. The pattern of young men's death puzzled me until I looked at the dates. These were men that probably died in the Civil War. The debt due to slavery has been paid in full.
