bill cunningham is one of the most insightful, inspiring, and downright mesmerizing
characters on television.  total f*cking genius!!!!!

i mean, i thought hannity blew my mind.  this cunningham guy is like plato AND aristotle combined!!

Hannity is so full of crap it’s not funny. Using your votes to take those sob’s out of office isn’t violent in any way and Sean knows it but he’ll continue to edit the “we have votes” out of the quote and use “take the sob’s out,” out of context because that’s what he does.

Hannity is the biggest hack on Fox. At least the rest are entertaining (Bill O) or funny in their stupidity (Fox and Friends) but when I watch this guy It just makes me angry….he is so smug.

and btw, holder is correct about labor in this country.

though “dire” isn’t the word i would choose.

marx predicted what would happen to labor under capitalism, and “dire”
would be putting it mildly.  ”cannibalized” would be more apt.

Yes… and Hoffa is a modern Mark Twain.

who said anything about hoffa?

When he said “piano player in a whorehouse” he was referring to Barack and Michelle.

It’s a whole concerted effort to smear anyone who disagrees with these myopic lemmings.

Well, since the tea party’s official position is that Obama is a foreign-born, America-hating closet Muslim bent on the destruction of America as we know it, I’m surprised that they would even care whether or not he rebukes comments made by Hoffa.In any case, Hoffa was talking about ”taking them out” via the ballet box. But of course, FOX News deliberately edited out all references to the election as the context of the comments … for inflammatory effect, of course.

Yes lets talk civility with a right wing talk show host and a right wing shock jock.  Next up we will have Ted Nugent on animal right, Howard Stern on LGBT pride, and Don Imus on race relations.

Good tv though

fox would NEVER do such a thing!

“good tv though”

alas, and we’re here watching it 

My dear, you must use his full name for context: Bill Hussein Cunningham.

i knew it!  

WHAT REACTION FROM THE WHITE  HOUSE…did I miss something..and what media, certainly not the MSM. They’ve kept as tight as a crabs ass on this one, and that’s waterproof.

As long as we don’t talk about liberal civility with the lovers of the jewish people at Al-Jezeera and America lovers at Pacifica.  Just like all liberals they are wonderful and loving people at those two stations.

Where his Oneness was or wasn’t born has never been a basis for The TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party. The Birth Certificate issue was started by Democratics.  His Oneness just continues teasing the issue by releasing bad fakes like his last BC that was created with at least 5 typewriters.

If you look past the fact that he’s just another pathetic, whiny, aging boomer

Thank you for demonstrating your Communist beliefs.

 And Hannity considers Rush “wipe the bastards out” Limbaugh a person of great honor.
What a bunch of hypocrites.

How about the two times Rush Limbaugh called the President a Jackass… was there a response?

No.

I think I am going to cry… but first I must laugh.

You ever see what Rush Limbaugh says about anyone who dismisses him as an entertainer?

And these are people in his own party.

It is really a sight to behold.  It’s like a walrus attacking a pinguen.

 1955 called. It wants its paranoid fear-mongering back.

Cunningham was exactly right. Obama sends out his ground troops to do all of his dirty work so he can act like he’s above it all, and then when he get’s called out for it, he act’s just like the piano player at a whorehouse who swears he didn’t know what was going on.

Perfect metaphor. Everyone has caught on to Obama. He’s a one trick pony/flash in the pan and it’s over for him as his ever dropping poll numbers show. He can attack the Republicans all he wants and it’s not going to help him…in fact, it’s only going to drive up his negatives even higher and his negatives are already 15 points higher than the Tea Party’s according to the latest Quinnipiac poll.

At least he didn’t call my mother a bitch like Hoffa did.

 Nope
Aspiring Republican politicians still go on his show to kiss his ring.
No one on the right has the guts to denounce him.

Are you currently a Republican member of Congress?

 oh, please
you know Hoffa was referring to GOP members of congress.
you’re not even fooling yourself with the pearl-clutching phony outrage

It doesn’t matter to me if he was talking about the ballot box or physically, I’m not offended either way.  I am offended that a union thug would call me an SOB…he doesn’t even know my mother.
But then again, when a known liar falsely accuses me of lying, I just grin and move on. 

Crazy ass birther teabagger alert!!!

Do I have to be a member of Congress to be offended? No.
So Hoffa thinks that only GOP members are SOBs, but not the people who voted them in.  Glad to see that he draws a line there.  Got it!

liberals don’t wear pearls, darling

How would Hannity even know what a whorehouse is?

those would be marx’s beliefs, not mine 

and you’re free to call them “communist”i’ll simply call them “accurate”

what’s happening to labor under advanced capitalism was entirely predicted
by karl marx a long time ago

I think everyone has caught on to what the Tea Party is. Look at their negatives. No comparison to Obamas.

taxed enough already.  i love that claim.

lowest tax rates in 60 years, with the same tax rates as bush….

and yet STILL not low enough!!

Also-
I never heard Hoffa refer to GOP members of Congress.  He said Tea Party, and then later said we have a vote.  Sure, it can be spun to include just the members, but we really know, and so do you, that he meant the Tea Party as a whole are SOBs.
Disclaimer:  I have never attended a Tea Party rally or donated one cent to them or any candidate.

JsBH, you are putting it the correct context, at least in my opinion.  I’d never want Howard Stern to be the speaker at a church mother/daughter luncheon.

You need to look back to the marginal tax rates of the past. I’m not even 40 and I’ve lived through lower taxes than we have now.

HE KNOWS…Google Hannity and Bunny Ranch

The birther movement was started by Party Unity My Ass (aka PUMA) during Hillary Clinton’s 2008 primary run.

The PUMA group was about as far left as imaginable and towing the line for Hillary.

thats right attack the presidents wife(sigh)….and so it goes

Gee I didn’t realize the Tea Party was President.  How refreshing, perhaps now we will get some place.

You realize that was about the dumbest comparison ever – let’s see Tea Party vs Obama.  ok then, this is what you’ve come to.  Good on you guy.

For once you are right…and it was by accident.

Tea Party has Lower negatives than Obama, Dems, GOP

 COMMENT SHARE FAVORITEVOTE  (0)
 Jacksonville, FL — President Obama’s job approval rating has sunk to an all-time low in the latest Quinnipiac poll.Obama’s disapproval rating is 52%, compared to 47% in July.  

Congressional leaders rate even lower in the public eye. 

The Tea Party has a better rating–with 42% of voters having a negative view.

http://www.wokv.com/news/news/local/tea-party-has-better-negatives-dems-gop/nDccm/

Frankly the “harsh rhetoric” from both sides is quite subdued in my opinion.

What bothers me is pinko commie bed-wetters flipping me the bird with one hand and wagging the no-no finger with the other hand.

Nut up or shut up bitches ;)

I am sure Hoffa thinks some of you are scumbags and some of you are dolts.

Where he draws the line? I don’t know.  You do understand that we are looking at his statments and nothing more.  He said he wanted to vote out the SOB’s. 

That is all it is. Did he call for people to be killed? Of course not.

The community organizer in chief is a jackass.

Which tax rate?  Income tax?  Name one other tax that is lower than it was 60 years ago.  I can name plenty of taxes that didn’t even exist 60 years ago. 

That’s what Taxed Enough Already means…gas taxes, property taxes, marriage license tax, sales tax, utility taxes, cig tax, liquor tax, recycling taxes, non-recycling taxes, fishing and hunting license tax, dog license tax, inheritance tax, bicycle taxes, car sales tax, oil disposal fees, tire disposal fees, and thousands of other taxes along with thousands of other “fees”…just a nice way to say tax.

If you drive a car – I’ll tax the street;
If you try to sit – I’ll tax your seat;
If you get too cold - I’ll tax the heat;
If you take a walk – I’ll tax your feet.
written by George Harrison and John Lennon 

“we are looking at his statments and nothing more”

But you’re only looking at what you want to see…and hear.
He did not say “vote the SOBs out” like you stated
He stated that the Tea Party started a war and we’ll take the SOBs out.  I will admit that he did say “we have a vote”, and that was referring to Tea Party members of Congress.
Let’s see your response when a Tea Party member responds to Hoffa with “I’m bringing a gun to that knife fight”

Again, I’m not offended anyway even if he directly threatened to “take me out” personally and physically.  I’m offended at being called a SOB by a union thug.  The very day that a union thug gets the best of me, I’ll go home and cut my own throat from ear to ear.

I thought Obama said that he was going to be president to ALL Americans. If this is true then why has he allowed a thug like Haffa denigrate members of the Tea Party? Does he consider anyone who disagrees with his failed policies and amateur handling of the economy to be less than American?

How do you know that you were the son he was talking about?

Given his grammar, I thought it was talking about one man who was raised by lesbians…

Hypocrites?  Neither Hannity nor Limbaugh have called for civility.  They’ve only pointed out the lack thereof on the part of those calling for it.

If you hold Rush Limbaugh as the equivalent of the President of the United States, I’m sure he’d be glad for you to call his show and let him know.

The spirit of the “piano player in a whorehouse” comment was correct, but inappropriate in my view.

Tamara What’s-her-name is a complete MORON!!! She never answered the question and kept rambling about her own agenda. Then had the audacity to accuse bill Cunningham of being foul-mouthed! She is like every other liberal: on a different planet and completely borderline!

This is GREAT. We shouldn’t tone things down. I say bring the violent rhetoric and the violent imagery. Since the Washington isn’t doing anything at least I can be entertained; WWE of politics.

Let’s face it, oBUMbler is a wimp. He is scared to death of The Tea Party and now he is afraid of Joe Biden, Maxinne Waters and Junior Hoffa. November 2012 cannot come soon enough for us to remove this one termer from the White House.

XTC – Dear God

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Dear god, hope you get the letter and…
I pray you can make it better down here
I don’t mean a big reduction in the price of beer
But all the people that you made in your image
See them starving in the street
‘Cause they don’t get enough to eat from god
I can’t believe in you

Dear god, sorry to disturb you but…
I feel that I should be heard loud and clear
We all need a big reduction in amount of tears
And all the people that you made in your image
See them fighting in the street
‘Cause they can’t make opinions meet about god
I can’t believe in you

Did you make disease and the diamond blue?
Did you make mankind after we made you?
And the devil too!

Dear god don’t know if you noticed but…
Your name is on a lot of quotes in this book
And us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look
And all the people that you made in your image
still believing that junk is true
Well I know it ain’t, and so do you
Dear god
I can’t believe in
I don’t believe

I won’t believe in heaven or hell
No saints, no sinners, no devil as well
No pearly gates, no thorny crown
You’re always letting us humans down
The wars you bring, the babes you drown
Those lost at sea and never found
And it’s the same the whole world ’round
The hurt I see helps to compound
That father, son and holy ghost
Is just somebody’s unholy hoax
And if you’re up there you’ll perceive
That my heart’s here upon my sleeve
If there’s one thing I don’t believe in

It’s you
Dear god

Oily Taint and “dead squirrel on the head” Trump made a career out of being birthers and both failed miserably.  Only the wackiest of the whack jobs are still trying beat that dead horse.

WALT WHITMAN: I Sing the Body Electric:

“I sing the body electric,
The armies of those I love engirth me and I engirth them,
They will not let me off till I go with them, respond to them,
And discorrupt them, and charge them full with the charge of the soul.
Was it doubted that those who corrupt their own bodies conceal themselves?
And if those who defile the living are as bad as they who defile the dead?
And if the body does not do fully as much as the soul?
And if the body were not the soul, what is the soul?
2
The love of the body of man or woman balks account, the body itself
balks account,
That of the male is perfect, and that of the female is perfect.
The expression of the face balks account,
But the expression of a well-made man appears not only in his face,
It is in his limbs and joints also, it is curiously in the joints of
his hips and wrists,
It is in his walk, the carriage of his neck, the flex of his waist
and knees, dress does not hide him,
The strong sweet quality he has strikes through the cotton and broadcloth,
To see him pass conveys as much as the best poem, perhaps more,
You linger to see his back, and the back of his neck and shoulder-side.”

As I see my soul reflected in Nature,
As I see through a mist, One with inexpressible completeness,
sanity, beauty,
See the bent head and arms folded over the breast, the Female I see.’
6
The male is not less the soul nor more, he too is in his place,
He too is all qualities, he is action and power,
The flush of the known universe is in him,
Scorn becomes him well, and appetite and defiance become him well,
The wildest largest passions, bliss that is utmost, sorrow that is
utmost become him well, pride is for him,
The full-spread pride of man is calming and excellent to the soul,
Knowledge becomes him, he likes it always, he brings every thing to
the test of himself,
Whatever the survey, whatever the sea and the sail he strikes
soundings at last only here,
(Where else does he strike soundings except here?)

The man’s body is sacred and the woman’s body is sacred,
No matter who it is, it is sacred–is it the meanest one in the
laborers’ gang?
is it one of the dull-faced immigrants just landed on the wharf?
Each belongs here or anywhere just as much as the well-off, just as
much as you,

Each has his or her place in the procession.
(All is a procession,
The universe is a procession with measured and perfect motion.)
Do you know so much yourself that you call the meanest ignorant?
Do you suppose you have a right to a good sight, and he or she has
no right to a sight?
Do you think matter has cohered together from its diffuse float, and
the soil is on the surface, and water runs and vegetation sprouts,
For you only, and not for him and her?”

Arise ye workers [starvelings] from your slumbers
Arise ye prisoners of want

And spurn the dust to win the prize.

On tyrants only we’ll make war
The soldiers too will take strike action
They’ll break ranks and fight no more
And if those cannibals keep trying
To sacrifice us to their pride
They soon shall hear the bullets flying
We’ll shoot the generals on our own side.

No saviour from on high delivers
No faith have we in prince or peer
Our own right hand the chains must shiver
Chains of hatred, greed and fear
E’er the thieves will out with their booty [give up their booty]
And give to all a happier lot.
Each [those] at the forge must do their duty
And we’ll strike while the iron is hot.

Fuck You Very Much
Lily Allen

Look inside, look inside your tiny mind
Then look a bit harder
‘Cause we’re so uninspired, so sick and tired
Of all the hatred you harbor

So you say it’s not okay to be gay
Well, I think you’re just evil
You’re just some racist who can’t tie my laces
Your point of view is medieval

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause we hate what you do
And we hate your whole crew
So please don’t stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause your words don’t translate
And it’s getting quite late
So please don’t stay in touch

Do you get, do you get a little kick
Out of being small minded?
You want to be like your father
It’s approval you’re after
Well, that’s not how you find it

Do you, do you really enjoy
Living a life that’s so hateful?
‘Cause there’s a hole where your soul should be
You’re losing control a bit
And it’s really distasteful

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause we hate what you do
And we hate your whole crew
So please don’t stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause your words don’t translate
And it’s getting quite late
So please don’t stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
Fuck you

You say you think we need to go to war
Well, you’re already in one
‘Cause it’s people like you that need to get slew
No one wants your opinion

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause we hate what you do
And we hate your whole crew
So please don’t stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you very, very much
‘Cause your words don’t translate
And it’s getting quite late
So please don’t stay in touch

Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you
Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you

Then we agree? You wouldn’t have Ed Shultz on to talk about the winning strategies of the Tea Party.

Hannity was one of those “tea party patriots” that was cheering for the US to default on its debt, so it is no surprise that he does not understand the hostility that many, or even most people feel toward the tea party for their attempt to bring down the US and world economies.

I’m guessing you’re a liberal.

Pull yourself away from the Daily Kos once in a while.

Never been there, do you recommend it?

Show me anywhere that Hannity or some other conservative recommended we default on the debt.  Not where they said we shouldn’t raise the debt ceiling; where they said we should default on the debt.  As a matter of fact, the Democrat controlled Senate refused to act on a House bill that would specifically require debt payments be made, regardless of whether the debt ceiling was raised.

The world is far too unstable for such theatrics. As a result of the republicans playing around with the debt ceiling, instead of depoliticizing the event as all other Congresses in recent memory did, the republicans instead did the unthinkable, threatened US default, and as a result the markets went crazy all over the world, untold thousands had their lives damaged, and tens of millions were forced to suffer the torment of a group of people who threatened to blow up the world economy. Only Obama’s shrewd play of agreeing to a last minute compromise averted a catastrophe.

Hannity: “I Would Not Vote To Raise The Debt Ceiling.” During a panel discussion on the April 12 edition of his Fox News show, Sean Hannity said, “If I was in Congress, I would not vote to raise the debt ceiling.” [Fox News, Hannity, 4/12/11, accessed via Nexis]
 
Hannity: “I Just Don’t Have The Great Fear” That Potential Default “Is Going To Be A Calamity.” Hannity said, “You know, is it worse that we default now and get our budget balanced or that America keeps continually taking on trillion in debts? It’s a very dangerous scenario, as evidenced by the S&P this week. And I just don’t have the great fear that others do that this is going to be a calamity.” [Fox News, Hannity, 4/21/11, via Media Matters]
 
Bolling: “I Say Let Them Default.” As a guest co-host on Fox & Friends, Eric Bolling told Fox Business host Stuart Varney, “I say let them default. … What’s going to happen?” Varney replied, “Armageddon is going to happen.” [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 4/13/11, via Media Matters]

For you, we do recommend it, or go back to the DUmmies where you belong

No, I don’t like partisan web sites.

Your still batting 1000 in the ”completely 100% wrong” department Darla…  If you vote for Obama in 2012 you’ll keep up your streak….

Hoffa has the right to free speech and he spoke the truth. It was not up to Obama to correct a man encouraging people to exercise their rights to VOTE. then on the other hand, in the warm up to SARAH PAIin’s appearance at one of her conservative round ups, the introducing comedian insulted children with DOWN SYNDROME and SARAH  said nothing. that wasn’t exercising free speech, that was eing funny at whose expense??, and SARAH spoke volumes about her real values, when she said NOTHING, absolutely NOTHING in response.

You got something against us?
