Hannity is a wanna-be. He mimics Rush and Levin. He is a completely unoriginal parrot. You can play 15 minutes of his show in a continuous loop and people would be unable to tell the difference.
I don't listen to Hannity much anymore, mostly because my schedule no longer allows it, but IMO he puts on a good show. Sure, Rush is better, and I've been listening to Boortz since I was kindergarten.
But like him or not, he hit the airwaves on the absolute right day to bring a conservative message to a country that desperately needed as many conservative messengers as she could get.
Sean is great. He is more chearleader then debater though. He dosen't call people on not giving true facts or fallacies in their logic, but just calls them really bad. That has a place though, I think. I think its good to get the pure emotions going sometimes as long as I get my hardcore logic in with Rush, Levin and reading Coulter.
I remember when he was beaten like a drum in a 'debate' with Janeanne Garofalo. It was embarrassing to listen to Hannity utterly unable to come up with a counter-argument that didn't involve playing old sound-bites of Al Gore.
Pathetic. Haven't listened to the little dimwit since.
While I like Sean,Rush is EVACTLY RIGHT when he descibes his show as"PREP"for other broadcasts!
Every time I tune in I think I'm listening to a repeat of yesterdays show - same patterns, same emphasis, same questions to the same guests, same jokes, same promotions, same tour to same citys....
Levin, on the other hand, I just love.
