Hannity about to go on attack

[sailingaway]

Yeah, and there's one that describes how to get away with murder of one of those fleet-footed blacks, something about buying an untraceable gun and stuff. Whoever wrote all the stuff was a gross gross human being.

I don't remember that one. I read what I thought was the full list. Wow, how to murder someone, really? That is much more beyond the pale than what I recall. Are you sure?

So, Ron Pauls' "baggage" that was vetted back in 08 should be looked at, but Newt's baggage is just ancient history and not worthy of discussion? How people can think people like Hannity have any credibility is beyond me.

Not true, Newt has taken a lot of damage on Hannity for individual mandate, among other things.

How about all the racists things Newt himself has said THIS MONTH? From Mormons to Palestinians.

Lord is also the guy that got schooled by Woods after his terrible "neo-liberal" piece.

Dude just has the biggest bug up his ass about Dr. Paul.

Dear god this is a long thread of crap. Did Hannity talk about the letters or not? If so can someone provide the audio or transcript (preferred)? Thank you.

Yep - he spent a good 20 minutes bashing Ron. I'm sure the tube will come up sooner or later.

I think Obama's Wright speech was a joke to all of conservative America and every Ron Paul supporter I know thought he was pandering. Ron doesn't pander.

yeah, but it worked and squashed the 'controversy'. And who says Ron's speech would have to pander? My main point was just that a formal response/speech on this (or any issue that offers itself as an opportunity to 'educate' voters and spread his message) would help rather than hurt...

Yeah, said they were racist. Said Ron Paul is lying about them and he wrote them. Said he CANNOT vote for Ron because of them.

 

[Give me liberty]

"I will not support Ron Paul." - Sean Hannity, just now.

"I just do not buy his excuse on the newsletters."

thats what he said?

 

[sailingaway]

That would be a mistake - Rand is too weak, sorry, too friendly. Send in Tom Woods.

Compare Rand's Maddow appearance with Ron's Matthews appearance, both on the CRA, I think Ron is actually better at this.

Mind you, BOTH Rand and Ron are better when they are defending a third party than when they are standing up for themselves. I think Rand shouldn't be the one here more because it will be partially dismissed as filial bias, though.

The only reason why I said it seems like newt's baggage doesn't matter is that I've heard a lot of these talking heads say "Yeah, newt has baggage, but it's already out there, people know about it, so it's no big deal". The knock on Cain was that his sex stuff wasn't out there and was "fresh" to the press.

 

[Napolitanic Wars]

I'm a little optimistic actually. This is actually a very weak attack in pure substance. There is very little in the newsletters that are actually racist, and it's obvious they were never written by Ron. It sounds nothing like him. If the campaign knows what they're doing, this should be easy to cut down IF they respond properly.

 

[Cinderella]

do we have a tube? geez this sucks

 

[kylejack]

I don't remember that one. I read what I thought was the full list. Wow, how to murder someone, really? That is much more beyond the pale than what I recall. Are you sure?

I can see if I can find it later. It was hedged in if someone is trying to mug you here's how you kill them and not get questioned about it or whatever.

 

[Kords21]

So when will Hannity be rocking out his Obama 12 gear? He's going to have to choose between Paul and Obama.

Hannity show recap:

Gingrich's twenty year old affairs are old news.

Paul's twenty year old newsletters-written-by-someone-else are extremely relevant, and need better vetting by the media (which was done in 1996 and again in 2008, moron.)

so stupid

'hedged in'? Or it was about self defense? Because that is a huge moral difference.

 

[John F Kennedy III]

Thanks guys. Hopefully I'll catch the tube. + a bazillion rep to whoever PMs it to me. Lol.

 

[eff]

he even had his one black listener call in to agree. weak.

 

[kylejack]

Yes, it was about how to defend yourself and ensure you're never questioned or discovered by the police. Which, if the newsletter is trying to drum up racist sentiment, could easily be used as a way to kill someone who isn't attacking you. Very dangerous language.
