Ah so neo-conservatives are “gangstas.” I’m pretty sure Easy E just turned over in his grave.

Anyways I can’t decide who’s the bigger idiot-Simmons for calling Hannity a “gangsta” Hannty for accepting the tag regarding his policy views or Michelle Bachmann for saying “Obama is running a gangster government.” I think we’re looking at a three way tie here folks.  

Hannity is far more racist and homophobic than most rappers.

Hannity just said he is libertarian, when he says that he’s registered Conservative…who can take this guy seriously again?

I thought he was a Reagan Conservative…

In private, I am sure that Russell Simmons calls Sean Hannity the punk ass bitch that he really is.

who can be “libertarian” with those ridiculous views of his?

Don Imus gets fired for saying ‘Nappy headed ho’s' 

Gangster rappers get paid millions $$$ for saying ‘I’m gonna f*&^ dat b*#!$”
We can tell you’re being partisan. 

“Can you name any country that became a democracy after a violent revolution? Honestly, can you even name one?”

– Sean Hannity

Who has indirectly caused more problems in the inner-city communities?

Sean Hannity who has a talk show (that many young people have NEVER heard of)? Or rappers that glorify and instill a culture of drug use, gang violence, crime, and degradation of women (that many young people listen to and emulate)?

Since Obama came onto the scene, I’ve seen Sean say somethings which are so unquestionably racist but not-so-subtly masked.

See the Common controversy, Shirley Sherrod…why don’t you look up Sean Hannity’s association with Neo-Nazi Hal Turner?

Why would someone hang out with NEO-NAZIS is he wasn’t a racist?

Guilt by association is not sufficient evidence. You don’t think Obama is a terrorist / criminal just because he used to hang out with Bill Ayers and Tony Rezko, do you? Hannity is on TV and radio 5 days a week and if he was overtly racist he would’ve been yanked by now. Your opinions of his ‘subtle’ racism don’t prove anything. 

And back to my main point: Rappers that glorify promiscuous sex, degradation of women, drug use, and violence have a HELL OF A LOT more of a negative impact on young black Americans than Sean Hannity. Your false outrage is laughable, dude. 

I don’t, but your buddy Hannity does, and based on the things you’ve said on Mediaite before, you do to.

So don’t take this holier than thou attitude with me.  Hannity is friends with a Neo-Nazi. 

And if Hannity thinks guilt by association is sufficient evidence then he is an idiot in that respect. And you seem to think guilt by association is valid or else you wouldn’t be harping on it.

 I guess you and Hannity have more in common than you think. And you didn’t address my other point about gangsta rappers. 

Tell what you thought about the Common controversy, then I will answer you.

….Seriously? I have to appease your stupid ultimatum in order for you to have a reasonable discussion with me? Very funny. 

What are you afraid of?

I’m not afraid of anything. I think the Common controversy was idiotic … I don’t care who Obama invites to the White House for poetry reading and neither should have FOX News. Now can you sleep at night since I told you my opinion of something that happened months ago and does not matter at all? 

You and your dumb ultimatums = lame. Now I guess I’ll wait for your answer:
Who negatively affects the young black community moreso: Gangsta rappers glorifying drug use and promiscuous sex with “B*^%$#@ and Hoes” or Sean Hannity? 

who?

Hal Turner.

First, I want to know whether Common is the thug that Hannity portrayed him to be.  Answer that.

Second, I never said anything about the black community, I said Hannity was worse, in general…and he is worse.  He has polarized this nation by making the Right a caricature of a once great party.  He has helped make the GOP literally the pro-war, pro-millionaire, anti-any form of social program, pro-segregation, anti-muslim, anti-secular government cartoon once portrayed solely in dystopian films and novels.  On the other side, Hannity has made his older white audience fear any sort of diversity in America, which makes us great, and not only foments racial prejudice but class based prejudice.

Rappers reach a small group, Hannity maintains a large audience of people who take him seriously.

who is Hal turner ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hal_Turner

so he calls wabc that makes sean guilty Obama go’s to bill aryres house he gets a pass

God, shut up about Common. I told you my opinion like you asked for – I’m not here to defend or rationalize Hannity’s opinions. I DONT CARE how he decides to use his 1st amendment rights and I don’t see why you care so much either. Its not my job to explain his thoughts so don’t act like it is. 

And also, you are giving Sean wayyy to much credit. He does not speak for the entire GOP and your description of him is widely generalized because you are a liberal and will never see eye-to-eye with him on certain issues. 
Rappers reach a small group? Are you serious? With record sales, radio play, TV airtime, youtube hits, illegal downloads, etc. rappers are heard by millions of people who also take their message / promoted gangster culture seriously. The fact that you continue to dodge my question tells me all I need to know.
I’m not wasting my time with you anymore. 

I know plenty of people who listen to rap, but don’t follow the lyrics.

Every single person I know who watches or listens to Hannity refuses to shut up about things like teleprompters and Common.  Sort of odd how that works.

next time try media matters I still wouldn’t believe you

So how about that Hal Turner?

I don’t know you can’t prove nothing with your discredited sources dan rather want to be get a tin foil hat

Cool story bro, your personal anecdotes don’t mean shit. Get real

Cool story bro?  Are you trying to speak internet with me?  A Hannity devotee is trying to slang internet jive with me…wow…just wow.

Sweet English skills dude.

thanks they cost American tax payers billions

How many times did you repeat 8th grade?

Wow, looks like I struck a nerve! 

No nerve struck here…but you never told me whether Common is a cop killing gangster that he was said to be on Hannity.  Still waiting on that.

0 the teachers union let slide so they didn’t fired

So your inability to, again, type a rather simple sentence into a computer is a union’s fault?

Talk about passing the buck.

also i have a master’s degree

I told you that I don’t care who Obama invites to the white house and that Hannity was wrong to make a big deal about it. How can I make it any more obvious to your puny little brain? I don’t think Common is a cop killer thug… God you’re an idiot. 

Is this another Hannity pearl-clutching, racially-tinged “You’ll never believe what those scary black rappers said” bit?

Meanwhile, Sean is perfectly fine with his buddy Ted Nugent screaming like a madman, calling senators “a bitch” and a “piece of Shit” and telling them to suck on his guns. When Nugent’s comments were brought up, Sean refused to denounce them.

How does anyone take this show seriously?

Isn’t Hannity the one who constantly lectures everyone on “radical associations?”
Isn’t fair to ask why he was a close friend of a known rightwing, neo-Nazi terrorist like Turner?

You’re evading…is Common the monster he was made out to be by Hannity?

Seriously. “Libertarian”? Are you serious? The dude’s so goddamn open about his religious views and how it should be integrated in government.

You’re comparing one individual to an entire group.  Of course the large group has a greater effect than the individual does.

But if you were to take a group…let’s say the parasitic right wing pundit idiocracy and compare them to all those naughty rappers, the picture is much clearer.  Far more harm has been done to the inner city, the outer city, every city, by the right wing fascist sleaze machine than any musician or group of musicians.

You must know bob from the teachers union meetings, apparently you prefer grading peoples grammar skills over using common sense in debating their points, it’s a shame so called educated people like yourself are liberal progressive fools, undoubtedly products of socialist college teachers.

An interesting and reasonable conversation…

…That probably won’t happen too often in this current climate.

It was good to see Russell Simmons being able to express his opinions uninterrupted.

Gangster rappers don’t have a TV/radio simulcast on a respectable news network, like Imus did. Bit of a difference.

Only people who didn’t go to University call professors socialists.

Russell Simmons is not a rapper. Sean Hannity is complicit with those in the media,Fox news, that want to eliminate any path for the poor to succeed in this society. Hannity will lie and spin anything positive coming from the “inner-city communities” into something negative. He and his ilk make up facts instead of reporting them. Those who rely on Fox news are mis-informed by Sean Hannity on a daily basis. His Hannity facts cause some in the inner city to vote against their own interest.

who can take you seriously when you confuse ideology with party affiliation?…  how does one register as a conservative, anyway?…  by contacting rush limbaugh’s institute for advanced conservative studies, perhaps?… 

guess what?…  liberals can be republican, conservatives can be democratic and libertarians can be either…   

Guilty by association is one thing, guilt by sharing a world view another.

How many Liberal Republicans can you name?? Lol!!

Most of them (at least fiscally), unfortunately.
