Sean Hannity: Why stop selling Confederate flags if you can buy Jay-Z albums at Walmart?

“I have a question: can you still buy a Jay-Z CD at Walmart? Does the music department at Sears have any Ludacris albums? Can I download 50 Cent on Amazon? Can I do that?” Hannity asked in audio posted by Media Matters. “Can I get some Snoop Dogg albums on eBay? Why do I say that? Because a lot of the music by those artists is chock-full of the ‘N word,’ and the ‘B-word,’ and the ‘H-word,’ and racist, misogynist, sexist anti-woman slurs none of those retail executives would be caught dead using.”

Now, if one of those songs was chosen as the state song of New Jersey I might agree, but until then STFU!

The despot's heel is on thy shore,
Maryland!*
His torch is at thy temple door,
Maryland!
Avenge the patriotic gore
That flecked the streets of Baltimore,
And be the battle queen of yore,
Maryland! My Maryland!

Sung to the tune of "Oh Christmas Tree"
The "despot" is of course Abe Lincoln.
Of course hardly anyone knows the words or sings them.
It is mostly played as an instrumental.

I'm also pretty sure that Walmart doesn't sell explicit lyric CDs either, so yeah it has none of those words in the clean Walmart version.

Not that music lyrics and battle flags have anything to do with each other, but his logic fails on all levels.
