Sean Hannity has found another excuse to hate monger about his uber black boogeyman, Louis Farrakhan. This time, Hannity feigned an interest in Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel's initiative to address a horrific epidemic of violence in the inner city. But Hannity's only real interest in the topic was in Emanuel's decision to allow “racist and anti-Semitic” Farrakhan to play a role in some kind of all-hands-on-deck approach - which Hannity was so obsessed with, you'd think Farrakhan was masterminding the whole thing. I'm not here to defend Farrakhan in any way. But when you consider Hannity's obsession with Farrakhan, his own association with bigots, his promotion of racially-tinged attacks on President Obama the only fact really proven in the discussion was that Hannity's race baiting is alive, well and still completely acceptable on Fox News.
Hannity began the segment, which aired last Thursday (7/26/12), by “asking,” “Why would the mayor want any help from this man when it comes to anything? Now this is a man who has made more racist and anti-Semitic comments than anyone I can think of. But apparently Deadfish (Hannity’s pet name for Emanuel), well, he disagrees with me.”
It’s funny how Hannity is so disturbed by Farrakhan’s racism yet has no problem when his pal Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson says things like, “Most blacks” in Tennessee are “so racist.” And the fact that Peterson “thanks God for slavery” has not prevented Hannity from endorsing Peterson’s charity and sitting on its advisory board.
The designated African American black-attacker for the segment was conservative Erik Rush. He wasted no time before he went after the usual Fox News scapegoat, saying that problems in Chicago are “a byproduct of liberal policies.”
For once, Hannity forwent attacking liberals – so eager was he to attack Farrakhan. Hannity ignored what Rush said in order to play some inflammatory recording of Farrakhan.
The other guest, Alexis McGill Johnson tried to talk about the crisis in black America. But Hannity cut her off in favor of focusing on Farrakhan: “We know there's a crisis, is that the right man to go to? ...Is that the guy that belongs helping? …Is he an anti-Semite? Is he or is he not?”
Rush got with the program. “I can't help but wonder if Rahm Emanuel would have welcomed the Ku Klux Klan in.” Before he repeated, “This kind of social and economic squalor is directly traceable” to liberal policies.
Hannity said, “That's what's causing black on black violence?” The note of hope in his voice was unmistakeable.

Oh, btw, the answer to â…what’s causing black on black violence?â is simple. It’s not YT. It is black recidivist cretins. We are all the sum total of our decisions. Try putting some thought into yours.

Look at the village idiots playing their little violins. Alexis McGill Johnson is a typical moonbat who refuses to answer direct questions. Black on non-black mobbing (Knockout Game, Thrill Killings, lighting ppl on fire, etc) has risen to such highs that you puppets have no choice but to face it. To hell with you race-pimps & black foot soldiers.

Are you a retard, Josh? Don’t answer, that’s a rhetorical question.
This is your quote: “I am not âpro-gayâ. I do not want everybody to be gay. I accept people for who they are, not what they do in their bedroom.”
Translation, you claim to accept gay people for who they are, except for doing the very thing that defines them as gay. What other examples are there besides sex that differentiates gays from straight people?
No matter how hard you try and spin it, the words you spouted DO make you a homophobe. Case closed. I win, you lose, deal with it loser. Buh-byeee.

If you say you accept people for who they are Josh, then you really shouldn’t have a problem with what gays, like your brother, do in their bedrooms. Yet you say otherwise.
Like it or not, you really do fit the mold of a homophobe. Do get over yourself, dopey.

It’s not going out of my way to come here for entertainment. Just a few clicks.
And I bet you believe this place is a bastian for unbiased reporting.
Also, I am not “pro-gay”. I do not want everybody to be gay. I accept people for who they are, not what they do in their bedroom.
You can think what you want, but I do not buy cable. You should try getting rid of yours. Too much tv rots the brain. Especially watching shows you you don’t like. Watcha think?

@truman Thank you for your sophomoric response. It was quite entertaining. Let’s get a couple things straight.
1. My brother is gay and I love him.
2. I have gay friends, and yes I even let them into my home.
3. It is ironic you use the “homophobe” smear tactic on a thread involving Louis Farrakhan who IS a homophobe.
4. I do not watch Fox News as I do not pay for cable.
I will say this: I know Fox News is successful and that has people here angry. So angry they claim to watch shows they hate 24 hours a day. It is fun to come here sometimes to see what has their panties all bunched up.

It was absolutely ridiculous. He didn’t want to talk about a solution (which he doesn’t have b/c he is not willing to get in the streets himself) he just wanted to go after Farrakhan. He is obsessed with Farrakhan b/c even after all the misrepresentation, the people still love him and can’t deny the good that the Nation does!

You just gotta love the defenders of Klannity. Do they actually listen, I mean listen, to what comes out of his mouth. Defend his relationship with Hal Turner, defend his behavior during the Abner Louima case, defend his “Freedom Concert” scam where more money was spend on postage and Oliver North’s daughter’s salary then on the children of the vets he was “supposed” to be “helping” further their education and get back to me. And just because Klannity invites Jesse Lee Peterson on every now and then doesn’t mean he has problem with people of a darker persuasion than himself. He didn’t earn the K for Klannity for no reason at all.

OK, back on topic. “uber black boogeyman” hmmmm, as much as Hannity doesn’t like Farrakhan, I don’t think he has ever used such language to describe him. It’s kinda weird that the author of this piece thought of those words to do so.

Joshua…yes, I was well aware of the cesspool of attitude I was walking into. It is just too easy to rile up the hornets nest with a few facts and questions. Call them out and they go nuts on you. The ironic part of this website is that the people on it don’t realize that how they act is a psychological disorder. If they would in fact read a book (a stretch at times) called “The Liberal Mind” by Dr. Lyle Rossiter, MD they would probably understand their own dysfunctional attitude of hate mongering and name calling. I truly feel sorry for them. Have a great rest of your day!

And Pablo, just look at responses from site members to know what type of people you are dealing with…
in reference to Hannity- kkklanity, asshole, sewer hole
in reference to you- deluded, confused, moron
This is how they cope with people who disagree with them. They try to get you angry and distracted, and then slip in lies and half truth’s to make themselves feel better.

What does Farrakhan use for his excuse for hate mongering? That’s right, he doesn’t have any, he just does it… and from that stems Hannity’s criticism.
“White people are potential humans – they haven’t evolved yet.”
Philadelphia Inquirer, March 2000
“They [the Jews] are the greatest controllers of black minds, black intelligence. They write the scripts – the foolish scripts on television that our people portray. They are the movie moguls that feature us in these silly, degrading, degenerate roles.
“The great recording companies that portray our people in such a filthy and low-rating way, yet they would not allow such a man as Michael Jackson to say one word that they thought would besmirch their reputation, but they put us before the world as clowns and as purveyors of filth. No, I will fight that.”
Meet The Press interview, October 1998
“The Jews have been so bad at politics they lost half their population in the Holocaust. They thought they could trust in Hitler, and they helped him get the Third Reich on the road.”

It must feel so good for you to pat yourselves on the back and wallow in your cesspool. Documented…as in MSNBC said so? Would love to see actual facts and not the “gee I was on vacation but since you said so it must be true.” The problem is you cannot produce something tangible let alone credible. The gravity of your ignorance leads to your own liberal demise. The amount of integrity in Sean Hannity’s little toe is more than this entire anger filled site has combined. mlp…as for energized, I appreciate the compliment. As a person of self reliance energized and self motivation are to be admired. Foreign concepts I know. If I’ve raised the IQ or the blood pressure of the fact forgetting members on this site, well then the world is a better place. Enjoy your little hate fest. It must make each of you feel so good!

I saw ’Pablo’s’ earliest comment, and decided that it was best to ignore the deluded and confused babbling of an obviously energized moron. I still feel that’s the best course of action. Some people just can’t be helped!
I also took some time to research the Rahm Emanuel/Farrakhan situation. It seems that Farrakhan’s group, dressed in suits has been peacefully making its presence known by walking in the worst neighborhoods. From Emanuel:
âThe police have a role to play. Tearing down abandoned buildings has a role to play. Shutting liquor stores that are a cancer in the community have a role to play. Community leaders have a role to play. Pastors have a role to play. Principals have a role to play. And most importantly, parents have roles to play. They have decided, the Nation of Islam, to help protect the community. And thatâs an important ingredient, like all the other aspects of protecting a neighborhood.â
Of course, there are those that still feel that Farrakhan’s anti-Semitic comments are unforgivable. The major sources of howling, though, seem to be coming from those who will NOT forgive Rahm for dis-inviting Chick-fil-A from the city.
