Juan Williams knows how to get under Sean Hannity’s skin. The liberal (for Fox News) commentator squared off last night on Hannity’s “Great American Panel” against the host, S.E. Cupp, and a confused Blake Shelton on Sarah Palin‘s popular appeal and despite his opposition to her political stances, Williams was honest enough to admit he sees her charm. While Hannity and Cupp made the point that Palin’s appearance with Jay Leno was another step forward on her personal road to the White House, Williams, addressing Hannity, noted that “clearly she’s a warm, attractive– and I know that you think extremely attractive– human being,” prompting a flabbergasted Hannity to reply “I think she’s smarter than Barack Obama!”

While the fact that Hannity would prefer a 2012 Palin presidency to the alternative is nothing new, watching him have to address this fact in the context of a schoolboy crush, and not a bitterly serious fight to the death with progressive socialism, is something we don’t see often. Cupp later tried to soften the blow by calling Williams’ description of Palin as “a centerfold for conservative men” sexist (her initial comment was just a pithy “ew!”), and Hannity tried to defend Palin’s political expertise, but Williams warned Hannity his “libido is getting in the way of your thinking.”

This prompted Hannity to defend his point by reminding Williams that he would prefer Palin as president to Obama today, and that Obama is slated to become an even worse president than Jimmy Carter.”You would trust her with our national security over Barack Obama?!” Williams asked. “Oh my God, you are really out there tonight.”

Perhaps the best part of this clip is the befuddled country singer sitting quietly in the corner, watching the others talk, sheepishly admitting when addressed that he finds Palin “cute” and shilling his album.

Check out the clip below:

You mean the obsession over Sarah Palin by certain male conservatives might be sexual?! Shut up, no way! You mean the stains on Sean Hannity’s pants that are seen after he talks about Sarah Palin aren’t from a weak bladder? That’s a silly thing to say.

I am wondering if this rightist Republican male “smitteness” with Palin might not, in some measure be driven by the fact that if they had bought Palin or a Palinesque girl home, Momma would have decreed “Drop her or pack up your stuff.” Sort of like have a thing for the beer girl in the pool hall.

And why does the far left hate Palin so badly? Did they ask out the pretty girl and get shot down, thus settling for girls that more closely resemble their grandmothers? Is that why all that bitterness and hatred seethes over every time Palin’s name is mentioned?

Juan Williams is the one that needs to curb his “libido” over Sarah Palin.

I confused over another detail; I always hear how FOX never has people of color on the air.

“The liberal (for Fox News) ”

I am glad you qualified that.

Yup… he’s a committed Democrat… but that doesn’t matter. He’s Black, and has done some major work for civil rights… but that doesn’t matter. He also works for NPR, a favorite cause of Liberals… but that doesn’t matter.

He’s on FNC… how “Liberal” could he really be? And here, I thought you guys had a big tent.

(PS- Thanks to everyone who proved my first comment correct. So. Very. Predictable.)

Hannity’s segue from “Hillbilly Bone’ to Sarah Palin — priceless.

Juan Williams is easily a moderate or conservative Democrat. That’s the reason why he’s constantly invited back on FNC shows. Same thing with Alan Colmes (self-declared moderate).

It’s good that the Democratic tent is so big. That way, when people like Evan Bayh stray from the far left line, there’s not as much danger of the door hitting them in the ass.

Why does the far left hate Palin so badly?

Because Sarah Palin is STUPID. :-)
