I welcome a good healthy debate with an intelligent, informed and ethical opponent. This guy is another story.

It is hard for people that do not understand capitalism to "get" the idea that during an election the "ratings" for a talk show are going to escalate and after the election they are going to drop. The differences between last summer and this would be staggering and yet they fail to note they are still 3x higher than their beloved Madcow.

yes Hannity numbers have slipped and so has every one elses but even with the slip he is the second highest rated show on cable news just behind ORielly so he isn't going anywhere he will move to 10pm and he will become the 3rd highest rated just behind Kelly

Just look at these numbers.
Cable News Ratings for Wednesday, August 7, 2013 - Ratings | TVbytheNumbers
Fox news dominates ever time slot period others don't even come close even if you double their numbers they would still lose. even the ORielly rerun at 11 pm beats other channels prime time ratings. it hurts doesn't it

So you call yourself a progressive? Yet you are open to stopping free speech (wishing for the day "he can't spew.)"

What do we call a socialist progressive that wants to inhibit free speech? What other socialist progressive, in history, denied people their freedom of speech? We called that person a fascist. I think its rather accurate.

he's a conservative, you're a progressive... the last thing you want is for him to have a voice or to be heard.

it's a very common theme among the progressive left.

I'm not a huge fan of Hannity, but he's not stupid, uninformed or unethical.

like MSNBC that everyone on a panel are all liberals and all they do is agree with each other that is not a debate, what are they scared of? why no opposing views? are they worried some one will expose their BS as what it is BS? Hannity is not scared he will have opposing views on his panels and he will win some debates and he has lost them also

Show me where I said I want to DENY them free speech. Trying to stir up the angry villagers are you? It is a free country, they can say as much stupid crap as they want and I can call them on it.

Damn, you guys are sensitive little flowers. Not really sure this qualifies as hate but it's kinda amusing to watch you guys run around with your panties all in a bunch.

First of all don't act like right is above it.
Secondly, you don't know me so making claims about me based on the party I identify with leaves you wide open to inaccuracies.
I am more solution oriented that victory at any price oriented so if you don't say destructive stupid ****....I'm all ears.

But it wasn't an investment, just an insurance security policy like owning guns.

I believe in calling 911 as the second call, just after calling the Coroner.

A person can have a lot of information in there head without being a particularly smart person.
I think he is very selective with his information and I think he has an agenda that is self-serving.
I think that covers it.

I actually listen to him and O'Rielly, it's painful but I do, because I prefer my opinions be informed by personal observation over hearsay.

I know you by your arguments here.... and a long 10 years of frequenting political debates sites....your schtick isn't original or convincing.

yes, I can tell you are "solution oriented"... and of course, getting rid of conservative voices just happens to be one of those "solutions"... amirite?
it's odd that you say you are not a "victory at any price" kinda gal, but do not budge a single inch from the narrative when it comes to debate ( especially in the zimmerman debates)

sorry ma'am, but when you waltz in an say "destructive stupid ****" like you did, and then pretend to be all about intellectual debate an such...well, you're gonna get your chain yanked... it's a service I provide, free of charge....

as for the right doing it too... well, sure, it happens, just not as frequently as Progressives... it's a progressive tenant at this point.
righties like to whine and whimper about the MSM and the liberal media being unfair , biased, and partisan(while defending Fox and their bias).... progressives call conservative talking heads " hatemongers" and nearly universally wish for them to disappear.( while ignoring the hate coming from their own mouthpieces and celebrating their paltry ratings)

not that my side is much better, we whine about being ignored by all the media, blame it on government, then smoke a joint and ponder just how in the **** we are going to get our guy elected to the chief dogcatcher office in East Nowhereville



anyways, I'm too old and smart for fall for stupid ****.. don't come crawling in here to declare your political opposition to be hatemongers who should disappear and then pretend your **** don't stink.
 
As a practicing "race-baiter"...if this is true Hannity will have to use to go to the "nuclear option".

He will have to pull his ultimate race card .... yes folks I'm afraid he's going to have to .....USE THE "N" WORD!!

Cause if he doesn't .... what else has he got?? :(

Trying to be intimidating with your salty sailor act. Sorry brother, doesn't really give you any additional credibility.

Why do you guys always scream fire when there isn't even any smoke. I never said anything about getting rid of conservative voices I said I'll be glad when they stop spewing their venom but rankly if their viewership drops enough that they disappear, I will applaud the evolution and have new found hope for our country. And well, since you asked....that goes for either side, so your point really isn't valid. You guys and your mass hysteria.

The frequency with which it happens, whether it occurs more on one side then the other, is really inconsequential.

Again, you assume I would not oppose someone on the left or anywhere for that matter that I saw as hateful. Your bad.

..and this is how a Progressive takes responsibility for their words/actions.

I never said anything about getting rid of conservative voices I said I'll be glad when they stop spewing their venom and frankly if their viewership drops enough that that makes them disappear I will applaud the evolution and have new found hope for our country. That goes for either side, so unless you are suggesting I just want everybody to shut up your point really isn't valid. You guys and your mass hysteria.

well, I guess that me makes me and you vastly different... I really like the idea of people speaking their piece... left, right, middle, fringes... I don't mind folks expressing themselves one damn bit.

... and you celebrate and applaud the "evolution" of your political opposition being silenced.


Progressives are becoming a very worrisome bunch.... they are opposed to altogether too many basic liberties .

ya oughta be celebrating free speech and the free exchange of ides/expression/beliefs/etc...even the stuff you don't like or agree with.

he'll probably stick to doing what he's been doing for 20+ years... it seems to be working rather well for him.

I don't either. Did you actually read everything I wrote? When all you have is two people shrieking at each other what's the freakin point? That's not a debate. That's a pissing contest.

You guys really should stop putting words in peoples mouths.

In truth, it feels like they think if they sling enough rhetoric hard enough, they can shove the opposition off the board.

yes, I read what you wrote.... you just said you would celebrate the "evolution" of their speech being shunned, obviously with the presumption that their speech is hateful, wrong, or otherwise bad for the country

in your mind, you came in here with a valid point and folks should address your arguments with some sort of polite intellectual curiosity to kick off a proper productive debate.
in reality, you came in here shrieking and now have a problem with the ensuing pissing contest.

welcome to online political debate, you get what you give.

as for me, I don't debate.. I discuss... there's a difference.
