There was a blatant Love fest between Republican Mia Love and Sean Hannity last night on Fox News. Hannity spent more time harping on his chumminess with Love than on anything she had to say about her historic election as the first GOP black woman in Congress or from Utah.
Before Hannity asked his first question, he made a big show of palsiness with Love. “Thank goodness for your Aunt Maggie!” he exclaimed as Love laughed. Hannity continued by relaying a little anecdote about Love’s aunt hearing about his inability to book Love on his radio show. Hannity said, “Didn’t your aunt call you and say, ‘Sean Hannity’s calling you out! Call his show!’” Translation: Aren't we BFFs?
Yes, Love said, laughing. “A lot of Utahans did the same thing.”
“We’ve been friends a long time,” he made a point of noting. But, he assured us, he’s happy for her “Because of what you represent.”
Not that he wanted to spend much time talking about what she represents. He was more interested in reinforcing his insider status with her. “I’m excited for you. We’ve known each other for a long time,” he reiterated.
“Yeah,” Love agreed.
But there may be trouble in Hannity’s Love paradise. “You’ve been duckin’ me,” he ribbed. He said jokingly that he had been asking, “Where is Mia Love? Why isn’t she returning my calls?”
Love said she’d been busy “working my district.” But, she reassured Hannity, “You know I love you.”
Near the end of the segment, Hannity said, “Do me a favor, get me the address of Aunt Maggie. I gotta send her two dozen roses to thank her for what she did for me yesterday.”
It’s one thing to have an opinion show supportive of a position or even a candidate but this went over the line and shows just how closely embedded Fox is with the GOP and how it works to stay there.
Watch it below.
This clown tries everything in his power to hide his past association with neo-Nazi Hal from North Bergen. Does Sistah Love know about Hal? Maybe the masses should inform her.
Give it a few weeks. Hate Nation will turn on Sistah Love and Brotha Scott in the most vicious ways. Save a screenshot of their hatred and post it all over Facebook and Twitter, and use it against the GOP.
Coming down the pipeline. Sistah Love and Brotha Scott get an unwelcome greeting from racist Tea Party Republicans.
NOTE TO HANNITY
She wouldn’t “love you” if she knew your dark side.
This simple minded littel token-minority bible-thumper should run for President; what do you think? God, I get sick just watching these two gush over each other. How sickening; yet his minions swallow it up like it’s kool-aid.
What the hell happened to her in the last couple days?
While we figure that out, I revise: I respect what Love was. The Mia Love in this interview is a gender-swapped Tim Scott.
