As New York City and much of the East Coast gets pummeled by Hurricane Sandy, Sean Hannity used much of his show to advance his hate mongering against all things liberal and/or Democratic. So it shouldn’t come as a total shock that even his interview about the storm was a thinly-veiled effort to push conservative talking points.
The guest was meteorologist Joe Bastardi, a climate change denier and a Fox News fave. Sure enough, Bastardi announced, without prodding from Hannity:
This storm was long overdue… Get used to it along the East Coast… We are in a perilous time, because the Atlantic’s warm, the Pacific’s cold, it’s the 1950’s all over again. Next five to ten years, we’re probably going to see more storms along the Eastern seaboard. Has nothing to do with global warming. Has everything to do with nature. And then we go back to where we were in the 60’s.
Think there might have been a balancing opinion? Think again.
No naive lefties (I was one ) never want to pry any deeper into human history further back than 200 years if they did they would know just how wrtched and precarious hunan life was before it developed into capitalsim. By the way it’s the left who have immediatly politicised this storm -in fact they are having orgasms over it as they can now start blaming evil capitalism. What a propensity towards lies the left have.
In this case as in so many others, the foxies prefer the ignorant to the knowledgeable.
Oh, wait- Hannity wouldn’t care about that.
But hey — if insanity really wanted to politicize Sandy, he should have invited the Mittster himself: he could remind us how he feels about federal spending by FEMA for disaster relief — namely, that it’s “immoral” and “makes no sense at all” . . .

Ladies and Gentlemen, your modern GOP: where federal disaster relief is “immoral” — but rape is “legitimate.”
