Unless you’re attending today’s meeting of the Ron Paul/Michele Bachmann Economics Lunch Club, you should spend five minutes of your lunch hour, at your “full-time job,” watching this week’s impressive “Tuesday Lunch Video,” as discovered while searching the word “empathy” on YouTube.
So. The Hannity show. It is really hilarious and deserves its high ratings.
Barack Obama said last week that he values “empathy” in any Supreme Court candidate. Hannity and his panel interpret this as Black Code for how he will appoint a radical community organizer to the Court to write laws for the purpose of radical social engineering, which is simply not what Supreme Court justices are supposed to do.
Hannity notes that there is a “zero percent” chance of this scenario not happening: “He is far more radical. There is no evidence that he has any moderation in him, Brian, at all. He has moved far more radically left on the economy and on homeland security; I would expect THE most radical justice he can get through.”
Ha ha Barack Obama really should pick like Bill Ayers or Allah or someone. Sean Hannity will have the same reaction regardless of the choice, anyway.
Supreme Court Appointment Up For Sale Or Repayment of Favors !!! [YouTube]
I heard Osama Bin Laden was teaching Law at Tufts - maybe he wants the SCOTUS gig?
No sense in waiting for the actual nominee to be named when the tar and feathers are ready now.
In that spirit, I have no idea what Barack Obama is going to say to commemorate Mother’s Day on Sunday, but it will be the most far left radical Mother’s Day commemoration in all of world history. Mothers will be lucky if their ears aren’t bleeding from it.
Obama really needs to float the name “Bill Clinton”, just so we can watch all of Fox’s “talent”s’ heads explode at once.
Obama is so radical on economic issues Kurgman is telling him to so down.
Oh.
No he’s not?
He’s telling him to stop being such a conservative?
Well then never mind then.
And then Hannity can eat a bag of dicks.
Carry on.
These people are completely insane.
Well hello, Ms. Guilfoyle. You are crazy, but I’d hit it.
Why won’t Obama be racially TRANSCENDENT and appoint a white man because he is the most qualified? As the brilliant Richard Cohen said this morning, “For most Americans, race has become supremely irrelevant. Everyone knows this.”
In Richard Cohen’s world, Everyone lives “in a pretty how town (with up so floating many bells down)”.
sun moon stars rain
Ha ha Barack Obama really should pick like Bill Ayers or Allah or someone.
Your bias against Woman-Americans is noted. Bernadine Dohrn is much more qualified.
But you didn’t post this until after lunch hour was over! And I needed some meat after seeing that delicious ad over and over again. Note to vegetarian advertisers: putting up something as tasty-looking as that won’t get people to your side; your doing it wrong.
Head hit desk.
(repeat ad nauseum)
I can imagine Sean Hannity stabbing his wife in the throat, on camera, and blaming it on Barack Obama. AND THEN giving a lecture on the importance of domestic violence prevention, while his wife gasps her last desperate breaths directly next to him.
Any gay muslin black women in the judicial ranks? There’s quadruple empathy.
Hannity sucks dogs cocks in hell.
GDuvall: Yeah, but Bill Ayers is Mexican.
Come here a minute: Oh thank you for reminding me! Now I will read Richard Cohen.
Kinda off-topic, but what does it take to become a wingnut author? I could write a 135-page book about how the gub’mint is the badzorz and how libDONKS are closeted gayNazirapists and how everyone should let the wealthy do what they want. EASY. Shit, my book would even be better than the average wingnut book, since I might actually, I dunno, footnote something or double-check some basic historical facts. Ronnie Reagan would be on the cover, also.
Can you make a living doing this?
Who the hell is that hippie chick “Democratic Strategist” mumbling nonsense in response to Hannity’s gibberish? Must be from Harvard.
-Reagan?
-REAGAN REAGAN REAGAN REAGAN REAGAN REAGAN!
-Oh, Reagan.
-Reagan, Reagan!
And yeah, Obama could nominate Ken Starr or Jack Thompson to the court, and the right-wing yakkers would call them a radical judicial activist. So if I were him, I’d go ahead and nominate an actual liberal, preferably one who would make their heads explode. Maybe someone who is only in their early 30s and will be around for awhile, even if they only have a few years of legal experience … that’s it! I’d nominate myself!
At this point Obama could pick Robert Bork and the country’s remaining Republicans would say, “Meh, too liberal.”
People, people, the answer is obvious: CYNTHIA MCKINNEY FTW!!1
SmutBoffin: I would see you maybe in a Manhattan penthouse apartment with the sales from the first printing. All it takes is selling your immortal soul, but why care, you probably won’t die for years.
SmutBoffin: that last one went to here
I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he nominated Che, only gay.
Let’s have this debate with Chuck Todd or Richard Wolfe in that 4th chair, and see how uppity Hannity dares to get.
SmutBoffin: http://www.regnery.com/
But I think they are having some munnies issues these days. What with the Amero being all in freefall because of ACORN.
Everyone knows that Obama is going to appoint a black hispanic atheist muslim liberal communist anarchist terrorist gay transgender woman abortionist to the Supreme Court anyway, so maybe Hannity has a point.
Davidwatts: Hannity is married? To a woman?
ChernobylSoup: Bork? Hell, Barry could nominate Dick Cheney and Hannity would still auto-fellate himself on the national teevees about sumthin.
Yes! Allah/Obama ‘12 and For All Infinity!
Hannity is clearly correct that the Republican party has moved to the left of Ronald Reagan. That’s why it’s a good thing that while he was still president, Ronald Reagan outlawed abortion, enshrined the Ten Commandments into law, and made guns cheap and accessible everywhere in the United States. If President Reagan hadn’t done that already, there’s a chance it would never get done, what with the Republicans being a bunch of Socialist book-readers these days.
If you already had two terms as president but you’re dead, does the Constitution bar you from running again? Because Ronald Reagan’s corpse really has a shot at the 2012 Republican nomination. They should dig up Lee Atwater and get right on this.
pondscum: yes, but she does not ever appear in public, ever.
Empathy is bad.
I hope Roberts, Scalia, Thomas and Alito all die. Soon. Preferably in some embarrassing and comical fashion.
The Station Manager:
Gay Che, genius. I want that on a shirt.
gurukalehuru: If that happens, we’d need at least one conservative on the Court. I nominate Bill Clinton, and maybe Lincoln Chafee. We can’t shut the conservatives out completely, you know.
if we repeat it enough, it becomes true.
I really feel like we need two lesbians on the Supreme Court. No, three! LIPSTICK lesbians - they’re the best kind for judicial jurisprudence.
WTF? is he able to hear himself? does he have any understanding of the words he forms? there’s something very very very wrong with sean hannity.
Hannity is a chicken shit.
Go get waterboarded for charity, then I might listen to your……no,
I would just like to see Hannity get waterboarded on camera
JMP: Seriously - I don’t even eat meat anymore due the abuses that they are mentioning, but every time I see that ad, I’m all, “Oh, damn. Steak….”
Again, I just don’t think the right understands what a radical leftist IS.
Tommmcatt: Yes! Pink beret!
Damn, because a) Hannity IS ABSOLUTELY POSITIVE that Barry is going to nominate a ‘leftist activist radical’ judge, and b) Hannity is ALWAYS WRONG on the facts, that means logically we are certain to end up with some boring middle-of-the-road average Joe or Jane, just like Souter only not closeted.
You know, for empathy and all. Lesbians.
Naked Bunny with a Whip: At last - a real American!
snideinplainsight: lipstick lesbians in business suits (under the robes) and under the business suits? lots o’fancy underwear that smells like flowers.
I nominate our Wonkette editors. They could take turns writing opinions that could be legally penetrating and also entertaining. “In the matter of Hannity v. Piles of Rotten Corpses and Rat Shit…wait, Hannity IS a pile of rat shit.”
Why not go with the Scalia model and appoint somebody with an utter disdain for humanity?
You know, I’ve never watched more than 15 seconds of any Fox News show. So I did this time, with the sound off, naturally. Apparently Colbert needs to employ 4 times the insane Americana graphics and be 6 times as gesticulatory in order to accurately satirize these walking sacks of excrement.
gurukalehuru: I would like Thomas to choke to death on Scalia’s dick, while Scalia dies of a heart attack. I would like Alito to get shot to death by a cop who was executing a no-knock search warrant at the wrong address. Roberts? Meh, I got nothing.
Hannity is brimming with teh stupids. I really sort of surprised he’s still alive. Should we start a betting pool on when and how he earns his Darwin award (which, incidentally, he won’t believe in from beyond the grave)? I’m going with “Killed by a De-Liberalification Device of his own invention in May 2010″. The device will be a cordless drill attached to the kitchen counter, and he will be drilling a hole into his head to get out the impure liberal thoughts he’s been having about the pool boy. Must. Clean. Brain.
zenferret: that’s “Hannity can eat a BIG bag of dicks”
On NPR’s “On Point” last week, a person called in to the Friday politics roundtable and just sort of blurted out that Obama was going to appoint Jeremiah Wright. The host, Tom Ashbrook, asks if the caller is joking. Guy says no, so Ashbrook very quickly says “That’s not going to happen. Next caller…….”
So, they’ve discovered public radio. My only consolation is that they’ll have to listen to fund drives and interminable interviews with jazz musicians like the rest of us.
gurukalehuru: Wouldn’t it just be a laugh right if some crazy wingnut (redundant, i know) got mad at them for not being “conservative enough” and mowed them down with a… you see where I’m going with this…
sati demise: I’ll bet he wouldn’t even submit to being pinkbellied on camera. So, waterboarding? Not a chance.
gurukalehuru: Auto-erotic asphyxiation?
I think Barry should use the same process that helped him pick his first choice for Surgeon General.
He’ll end up nominating Judge Judy or Judge Joe Brown.
I nominate Sara. I’ll make some calls.
Hey if he puts Judge Judy on the supreme court, the announcer could say, “The rulings are FINAL. This is the Supreme Court with Judge. Judy.”
Apparently “the American people” are the million or so people who watch Hannity. The rest of us, we’re just excess baggage on the giant, unregulated plane of freedom. You stay *real* classy, Sean.
Sonya Sotomayer looks like a Klingon wannabe at a cosplay party. I pick her.
Tommmcatt: We can do it. We have the technology.
Sean Hannity and the GOP base are just like all the creatures that feast off Reagan long after he’s dead: they are maggots.
You know Hannity would lose it if Obama appointed Hannity himself.
;LKAJSDFP9A8W30U479874 SOMEONE PLEASE JUST BLOW UP EVERY TV STATION
I’d like to introduce Sean Hannity to some radicals.
He’s obviously never seen one, since he keeps claiming that Obama is one.
Hannity’s whole life has been about wishing he could blow Ronald Reagan.
Kimberly Guilfoyle needs to eat a bag of dicks and choke.
Naked Bunny with a Whip: You forgot that this pandemonic nominee is also somehow a fascist.
And besides, everyone knows he’s gonna nominate [url=http://www.theonion.com/content/node/35250]this guy.[/url]
Zadig: Holy dick, how do I do url tags in this damn comment thread?
Zadig: Use carets instead of brackets.
Barry should just go to the next level entirely, and nominate something like a squirrel or a certain patch of the sky or Jesus, or some other manifestation of the ‘aloha spirit’ he has full access to. Just put it back in everyone’s face. Then, when he nominates some tranny Malcom X type everyone will see it as quite reasonable.
Oh come on, Wonkette. I took a chance and clicked on that and you made me waste two minutes and 23 seconds of my life.
Just nominate Anita Hill and get it over with.
SmutBoffin: Is there money it? Create an account at npronline under the name “author,” password “newtalent,” and await further instructions.
Enough of this right wingnutz “WWRD?” [What Would Reagan Do?"]
Let’s hold up a real Conservative as the example to follow: Barry Goldwater!
Meanwhile, we certainly don’t need another judicial activist on the Supreme Court like Chief Justice John Marshall. He hauled off and made up the idea that the Court would rule on whether laws were Constitutional - and that’s not even in the Constitution!
