Columbia U. PING - Anyone see Hannity tell his guest "Do you need help?"

Self

[tuna_battle_slight_return]

Anyone see Bill Hartung being interviewed by Hannity regarding the professor at Columbia? Priceless.

Hartung yells at Hannity, "put your finger down. Don't point that finger at me. I'll give you another finger". Hannity: "go right, ahead".

And then Hartung says to Alan, "Alan, is it just Hannity's show, or do you do anything here?".

I think Hannity asked the guy if he needed or was on medication. I remember Hannity saying, "Do you need HELP"?

Alan, to his credit, said to the guy, "Don't insult my cohost like that" (and Hannity gave Colmes a "thumbs-up"). Pricless.

Another comment was, "I know how you (Hannity) and O'Reilly operate. Trying to scare and dominate your guests".

What a loser. What could have been an interview turned into "must see" TV (watch pathetic liberal loser get hostile towards BOTH Sean and Alan).

I hope they re-run the "interview" later tonight or tomorrow.

Hartung is the Director of the Arms Trade Resource Center which is a part of the World Policy Institute. Here's how to get in touch with his bosses and the donors to that organization:

LOL!

I remember one time, on Sean's radio show, a woman called in to defend the 9-11 terrorists and she gave new meaning to the word hysterical. She was crying and screaming because Sean was tearing down her viewpoint. All she could do between rants was scream about how Christians and The Crusades.

[CedarDave]

As far as the Hartung dude, I freeped him before the other thread got pulled (I didn't know it was wrong... I swear!)

I'm surprised this thread hasn't yet been moved to Chat.

[TruBluKentuckian]

Education: B.A. in philosophy, magna cum laude, Phi Beta Kappa, Columbia University <--- that should tell us everything.

[Gumption]

Boy, I wish my first post had been as right on the mark.

I wish ANY of my posts had been as right on the mark.

Welcome, how long you been lurking?

Let's see if that screen shot survives when H&C is replayed later this evening!

In his spare time, Bill Hartung is a stand-up comedian, specializing in political humor. He has performed at Standup New York, the Comic Strip, and Café Underground, as well as at receptions and annual gatherings of progressive organizations like Peace Action, the Friends Committee on National Legislation, and the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom.

Please tell me you slipped this in to his bio just to see if people were paying attention. To quote a line from Neighbors, Hartung "is about as funny as a gut full of pinworms."

The second @sshole in as many days from Columbia University to show his true colors!

What sort of rat nest are the hiding at that university?

[Anamensis]

I wish Ari would just press a button and their seats would drop them into a pool filled with pirranha.

Oh, you just made me do my involuntary hyena-yip laugh.

[SeeRushToldU_So]

Welcome home, as my namesake likes to say.

[Oorang]

Did you see the way Ollie looked at the MARINES not at the camera...(unlike Jerry)

I know this isn't a Jerry thread, but, my husband was just scanning with the remote and came across the Travel Channel which had "The Gay Riveria" and my husband said "I didn't know Jerry was..." well, you get the idea.

[clintonh8r]

You can almost see Eleanor trembling with anger. Angry white woman! She's such a RATslut I can hardly stand to watch her.

[bolthead]

Eleanor Cliff and most of the liberal media hate Bush so much they want to damage him by lieing about how well we are doing in the war

I'm sick and tired of seeing these characters (especially Alan) spout the mantra that Administration officials kept saying before the war that it would be exceedingly quick and a cakewalk. I want them to provide the statements in full context.

Alan has been saying this for so long he's probably starting to believe it himself.

[Dave278]

I ahve been lurking a couple of days. I think I found the link to this site on Drudge Report. Man I got lucky, found my sig line on the first day!

[lonestar]

Just a bunch of libs

[annyokie]

It was truly "I know you are but what am I" moment. Go Sean!

[honeygrl]

"I thought he was about to take a swing at Hannity. That was really funny. "

What was funniest was Hannity seemed to be trying his best to aggravate the guy even more once he saw how insane the guy was! I was just dying laughing when Hannity kept asking the guy if he liked his book and if he wanted him to sign it for him.

[WOSG]

You misunderstand. This guy was CRITICIZING the leftist professor by pointing out that he wants deaths of US soldiers.

IMHO Hannity was rude to him early on, not too surprised he got rattled and flipped out; I flipped after a minute and missed the fireworks that followed.

A Democrat . . . an absolute shock.
