Hannity: "Conservatives don't race out to exploit political tragedy like we've seen here"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

9/11, Sean?

:eyes:

[proud2BlibKansan]

1. No they don't. They are too busy deleting images from their websites.

And taking comments off of their Facebook pages.

[trayNTP]

15. +1

That is a great comeback because it strikes them at the core.

If you are busy removing language, posts and images from your websites after something like this, then you aren't just part of the problem, you are the problem.

[pokerfan]

32. as seen on twitter

I'll say this, if your first instinct after hearing about a tragedy is to scrub your websites, you have a problem as a political movement. - digby56

[proud2BlibKansan]

36. Just had a heated 'discussion' with one of them on FB

A local congressman posted a plea to tone it down on his FB page and a couple local yokels immediately started in on the 'hate' from the left. I asked how that was helpful and they just posted more crap and links to far right blogs slamming liberals. So I asked them to please post a link to Sarah Palin's apology, unless she had removed it like she removed her infamous map from her website.

Crickets.

LOL

[mimitabby]

17. rotfl!

[malaise]

24. Don't forget removing members

from FR :rofl:

[proud2BlibKansan]

37. Oh yeah.

More damage control. :rofl:

[MineralMan]

2. Conservatives never lie, either, right Sean?

Uff da!

[Angry Dragon]

3. I was thinking the same thing

[myrna minx]

4. Conservatives turned the loving Wellstone memorial into a political circus.

I'll never forgive the media for that. :cry:

[Hannah Bell]

5. lol

[prolesunited]

6. They have no shame

and half the things they've exploited, they've just made up.

[nadinbrzezinski]

7. Sean 9.11 is the biggie

then there is the Wellstone Memorial... the Christmas bomber... the shoe bomber.

Those are just in RECENT memory Sean.

[Warren Stupidity]

8. cough **911** cough

[angstlessk]

9. Cause you got no liberals killing conservatives...dummy!

I cannot recall a liberal murdering anyone in the last 20 years...well, maybe the unibomber..not sure what his affiliation was?

Although, the talking heads on the right are trying mightily to connect the shooter to the left....

[cbdo2007]

10. So causing political tragedy doesn't count as exploitation?? ha ha

There's blood on all of their hands. They all are responsible and will all burn in hell for it.

[Botany]

11. You are so right Sean .... Conservatives would never do something like that

[lpbk2713]

21. The icon for exploiting a tragic event.

If ever there was one.

[Ian David]

12. Nahh... of course not...

[JustFiveMoreMinutes]

13. ... perpetuated by a WHITE man.' and then yes, he's correct.

[rustydog]

14. Yo, Hannity, aren't you doing it RIGHT NOW?

Look the other direction, don't look at the people who called for murder, who asked people to set their sights on opponents, who asked for people to use their second amendment remedies...no, don't look there.

[gratuitous]

16. He's absolutely right

A lot of the things said about the Arizona Tea Bagger Massacre have been expressions of disapproval and dismay. Liberals aren't raising campaign funds on the bodies of the dead in that Safeway parking lot, which is how conservatives exploit a political tragedy, or any tragedy. "Where's mine?" isn't just a Republican slogan for the workings of government; it's a 24-7 preoccupation.

[spanone]

18. today is no different than any other day for hannity, lies and bullshit

[LTR]

19. The RW media has been trying to blame this all on liberals!

Hypocrite!

Hannity is a no-neck fat piece of shit.

[unblock]

20. he's got a point. shrub pissed his pants and hid for 3 days before going out and exploiting 9/11

[jillan]

22. Then what the hell are you doing right now, Hannity?????

Just that comment alone is an exploitation. AND what about Faux going after Dupnik?? What was that??? Going after a Sheriff that is involved in the aftermath of a tragedy? That's okay?

[Proud Liberal Dem]

23. Beat me to it.

9/11. All that anybody questioning that needs to do is check out the 2004 RNC but there are, of course, plenty of earlier examples from 2001-2004 about how they shamelessly exploited it every single chance they got.

[upi402]

25. Conservatives accuse others of the very wrongs THEY are doing

And they blame the innocent for the very crimes they commit.


Hannity needs to get investigated by the FBI or DOJ.

[Still Sensible]

26. Bull-fucking-shit! n/t

[The Backlash Cometh]

27. Oh, they are so wrong!

They have tried to limit speech during Bush's term at every opportunity.

There were freedom corrals, you couldn't criticize Bush when he was overseas, you were called unpatriotic when you did criticize him when he was here.

At every turn they exploited 9/11 to stifle opinion and criticism, and they're doing it now too.

[phantom power]

28. Except wait they're fundraising from the Tucson shootings already:

[devilgrrl]

29. Like 9/11 Sean?

What a tool.

[Viking12]

30. Noun. Verb. 9/11.

QED

[demokatgurrl]

31. That is almost funny. nt

is he really this idiotic or is he just lying?

[11 Bravo]

34. Except for the pictures of Bush on Air Force 1 on 9/11 that the RNC used as part of a fund-raiser,

you're absolutely right, Hannity.

[Ratty]

35. Hannity and the Ft Hood shooter: a quote

HANNITY: This Fort Hood situation is really beginning to disturb me and should disturb everybody. And that is that there is a chance our government knew all about this guy Hasan and did nothing because nobody wanted to be called an Islamophobe. We’re not talking about Islam, we’re talking about radical Islam. You know, this guy going in there, god is great, etc., etc., and all the things he’s saying. But everybody hat worked with him, Bob, knew ahead of time, our government apparently knew and did nothing. Now, this is a terrorist act, if in fact this was motivated in such a way. What does it say about Barack Obama and our government?

[DainBramaged]

38. Fred Phelps Sean....

[Kingofalldems]

39. K and R for the Teabaggers

Complete idiots.

[Dawson Leery]

40. Conservatives bilked 9/11 up until Bush's Hurricane Katrina response

exposed him for being a worthless tool for his corporate backers.

[B Calm]

41. Just like a rapist, they just want you to get over it. Seeing how most

political tragedies are caused by them, they usually do point their finger at their victims.

[riderinthestorm]

42. Yeah, Palin's trip to Haiti wasn't a photo op or anything right?

Probably the only thing Bush didn't "exploit" was Katrina and that's because he fucked up so badly, he avoided it for years.

I'd add the exploitation of soldiers in the Mission Accomplished fiasco too.

I'm too tired to think straight about all the rest, but conservatives go to great lengths to exploit tragedy from what I've seen.

[Tsiyu]

43. Bloody Sean, you ARE political tragedy

exploit that, Pinhead.
