| #12 They put Hannity after Rush here locally, but I'd rather they dropped him for more Michael Berry. |

| #10 Hannity is a whiner. "Look what the left is saying / doing / plotting now! No fair!!" When Palin (full disclosure, I'm not a Sawah fan) put a bullseye on a piece of campaign literature, leftists screeched as one "Incitement to violence! Cast her out!!" When Obama said "They bring a knife, we bring a gun," the left grinned and nodded as one. When lockdown protesters open carry (I feel it's not the best choice, but it is a legal, Constitutionally guaranteed choice) it's "bad optics." When Black Panthers showed up at polling places in Philly with AR-15s and riot batons, nary a peep. The "We don't want to be like them" argument is absurd. Don't want to be like them how? In control of the narrative? Pointing out we won't be steamrolled? Willing to say "whatever it takes?" Willing to exercise our Constitutional rights instead of mocking the Constitution? |

| #9 Hannity on Fox has become almost uwatchable. I do DVR his show but I generally skip his monologues, which are repetitive in the extreme. Then, when he has a good guest (or guests) on, he appears to be icapable of just asking a question and getting out of the way. Instead, we get a two, or three, or five minute litany of stuff we've already heard a hundred times, leaving guests very little time to get a word in edgewise. It is my dream that someday one of his guests will get so frustrated that they'll scream "SHUT UP AND LET ME TALK, SEAN!" or just quietly take off their mic and walk away. |

| #8 Just because he does not like the optics, just because guys with guns make him nervous, and just because he has a TV show to spout his opinion, it does not supersede their constitutional right to carry arms, dress as they want, and peacefully assemble. I think they look like idiots, but its their right, and is scared the crap out of the Governor! 2nd amendment seemed to serve its purpose, Hat tip to the authors of our constitution. |

| #6 I can’t believe he’d willingly risk getting on the wrong side of his viewers by telling them something they don’t want to hear, no matter how much they need to hear it. AP and Hannity were the biggest drum pounders about constitutional rights ets during Clivon Bundy deal, until he said an ungood word, and they just swished their hands and walked away. Faint praise. |

| #5 Good advice. At this point the nation is at serious risk of another round of civil strife similar to what we saw in the 1850s. Best not to encourage any latter-day John Browns. |

| #4 Hannity still pushing his book? |

| #3 Also they shouldn't throw that tea in the harbor without filing the appropriate EPA papers. I believe what is being communicated to the deaf is that there are people willing to give the last full measure of devotion. The last hope that the officials understand that fundamental before it becomes more than a 'better pay close attention to this' moment. Unfortunately, those without any understanding of real human history are headed to Lexington commons. It only takes one 'we don't know who fired the first shot' moment and talking is all over. |

| #2 I can’t believe he’d willingly risk getting on the wrong side of his viewers by telling them something they don’t want to hear, no matter how much they need to hear it. I guess people who act ethically (long term self interest), instead of selfishly (short term self interest) are a puzzle for the author. |

| #1 Beer belly, camo, Oakley's, operator beard, body armor, and ballistic helmet are actually all you need. |
