Sean Hannity Stoops To a New Low
He's gonna be in Cincinnatti on Friday, and was just talking to a man named Nathaniel who is organizing a protest against his appearance.

Hannity offered the guy an invitation to appear on stage and address the crowd - probably enough time for one of Hannity's fans to get him in his sights.

When Nathaniel declined the invitation, Hannity accused him of cowardice for not standing up for his beliefs.

I'm sure Hannity made some brownie points with many of his brain-dead listeners, but I have even more contempt for him now than I did before.

8. I don't see the low either.
It will be in a university setting . . . if the guy has any cajones, he should take Hannity up on his offer and rip him a new one.

10. Nathaniel Would Be a Sitting Duck
He declined Sean's invitation in the interest of self-preservation. And Hannity accused him of cowardice.

THAT'S the all-time low. Hannity is lower than whale shit, and whale shit sinks to the bottom of the ocean.

12. "Self preservation"? You gotta be kidding . . . at Xavier University?
Could it be that you are overstating the threat?

15. I tend to agree with you, wYCal
Damn it, if we show fear from a bunch of pimple-faced Brownshirts (who don't even have the balls to go out and be REAL Brownshirts), then we are in big trouble.

God, Hannity, offer me that chance! I'll drive down and enroll in Xavier tomorrow!

16. That's my point! Nathanial had a GOLDEN opportunity to score
some valuble points with some young voters. I'm extremely disappointed that he didn't accept the offer. I don't think for a second that his life or health would be in any danger.

It would be like Saddam Hussein parachuting into a US Army base.....

4. Hannity offered him a chance to be thrown to the wolves
The man declined

"no thanks, I'd rather not have broken bottles and cinder blocks thrown at my head"

Hannity - "You coward"

6. I would have accepted
Provided that Hannity also appear (alone) in front of the protesters.

Now THAT offer would have been turned down.

9. What the hell?
Please don't use the word "faggot". It's offensive to me. It doesn't make you any more of a man to say that Sean Hannity had a homosexual experience, and although Sean Hannity is scum, if he had a homosexual experience it would not make him any LESS of a man. Your post reeks of ignorance and I'm ashamed to have even read it. :mad:

17. Thanks for the response
I'm all in favor of gay marriages. I'm all in favor of people living freely and doing what they choose in the bedroom. I do not believe that includes the limbaughs and hannity's of the world who may dabble and yet, in the boldest of hypocritical actions, spur forth the venom of the right wing with their daily homophobia or racism. Right wing Morons with microphones hate for a living. That is what I have a problem with. I obviously failed to communicate my thoughts.

28. Everyone is entitled to freedom,
even people that you may disagree with politically. If we were to deny them freedom then we would be no better than them. This is America, after all. Turn the other cheek.

14. There's no such thing as a "new low"
for bottom feeders like Hannity.

19. ....
Nathaniel could have prepared himself and gone out their and ripped Hannity a new one. I would have done it. Sounds like cowardice to me.

20. Do You Honestly Think He Could Have Gotten Anything Out?
The minute Nathaniel opened his moth to speak, the morons in the audience would have shouted him down non-stop. They don't want to listen to different points of view - they only want to head opinions that agree with theirs.

Him being shouted down, if he waited patiently, would just make Hannity look bad.

Sean would look like a great hero, providing them with fresh meat for the slaughter.

He could have asked for Sean to tell them to shut up, Hannity knows he would have looked like a moron, and probably would have done something.

26. What else do you expect?
All the right wingers get an immature little thrill out of calling us chickenshit or the like just because we don't want to debate them in their little forums. We just need to continue to rise above and handle the big issues they're constantly avoiding by bombing things.

27. He should counter-offer
1) "I'll do it if yor arrange for my protection (police, etc.)"

2) "You come on stage to address an anti-war or anti-Bush rally"
