Why is it that agreeing with someone like Hannity make me a puppet?

Question

I have been told by another person who shall remain nameless that the fact that I like Sean Hannity makes me a puppet. Could someone please explain this to me? Oh and by the way it makes me a "hater" too. I can't recall hearing Sean saying he hated anyone. I can't remember saying that I hated anyone here where did this all come from please help.

Answer 1

just ask him to explain exactly what he means by the term puppet, it works!

then call him a parrot!

Answer 2

Get used to it my friend. If you agree with Sean Hannity we can only assume that your a person of common sense and a good working moral compass. The only argument that a liberal can muster is a personal attack. Since the nameless person that called you a puppet and a hater was unable to offer an informed debate, they resulted to personally attacking you. Liberals are all about freedom of speech unless it differs from their opinion as to how the world should be. Then they want to silence you and your freedom of speech is no longer important.

Answer 3

Sean Hannity is a great political mind. If you agree with him it doesn't make you a puppet, but rather a genius. He knows what he is talking about and if you like listening to him it means that you have a good source of information.

Answer 4

Although I am liberal and think it's sad that people think "Hannity and Colmes" is fair and balanced, this guy is a bit over the top. Agreeing with Hannity is different than spouting everything he says, in which case you are a puppet.



Hey, Scubadog,



I say look who's talking. If you a agree with FOX NEWS, The O'Reilly Factor, or Sean Hannity, than don't talk about personal attcks. I reference you to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY4qtBn0LgA



Even if you don't agree with them, still, you shouldn't talk. Let's look at your second question: "If Micheal Moore stopped eating for one week? Would there still be an issue with world hunger?" This is a personal attack, is it not??



I laugh in your face!!

Answer 5

I started listening to Sean Hannity early last year when the whole Terry Schiavo matter hogged the headlines. It was a matter of 15 years of Bush 41-appointed judges upholding existing Florida next-of-kin laws. Republican judges upholding existing law and keeping government out of people's personal matters would seem to be a classic open-and-shut case of conservative textbook dogma.



Instead Hannity and his callers were vehemently against the court decisions, blaming the whole matter on something called "The Liberal Culture of Death". To this day I have no idea who or what they were talking about. If you believed Hannity Terri Schiavo was dancing and singing right on up to the moment the feeding tube was pulled. Lurid tales of Michael Schiavo beating his wife were constantly featured, but when those stories turned out to be false and the autopsy showed Terri Schiavo's brain was a mass of jello Hannity never ran a retraction. Polls showing 82% of America didn't think President Bush should have interfered in the whole matter were never mentioned.



The whole Sean Hannity universe is an echo chamber. He says what his listeners want to hear and the carefully screened callers repeat it back. No diversity of opinion is allowed and if something happens in the world that contradicts the preset agenda it is never allowed to prick the bubble. That's what happened when Iraq collapsed into civil war this year. Hannity ignored it and talked about Natalee Hollaway for months on end instead.



You want to listen to Hannity, fine. But if you are going to rely on him for your sole source of news understand you are only hearing what he wants you to hear and there are whole issues you will be completely ignorant of.

Answer 6

Problem is that Hannity is a party puppet that makes up lies to get his point across. As long as you can see when he is exagerating and can figure out what he should be saying, you should not be too bad off. Of course you could counteract his lies with a little Air America--after hearing both of them you can usually figure out what the truth is--the middle.

Answer 7

Hannity doesn't have to say he hates anyone. His speech and manner tells you that. His slant on the news is perverse and I have never met a more one sided buffoon in all my years of listening to news evaluation. For good measure his BullDog shaped head suggests inbreeding and that may explain a lot of things. Whomsoever compared you to Hannity was trying to be hurtful and you shouldn't take them seriously. Hannity is a hate monger and unfortunately America has too many of those today.

Answer 8

Well I don't think that makes you a puppet I don't care for shawn hannity because he makes his views so obvious. Ok it's like this it's a t.v. program in business for the ratings period! shawn hannity plays the rep. alan colmes plays the dem. My personal opinion is colmes is just a better actor.

Answer 9

If you regurgitate everything he says without first testing the credibility of what he is saying then it make you a puppet. You just agree with everything he says without first checking to see if he may be wrong. Then you turn around and repeat said information. Its good to get your information from multiple source. There is nothing wrong with agreeing with someone. Just make sure you do not do it blindly.

Answer 10

Because liberals are the "enlightened" ones and everyone different or disagrees with them is a simpleton. How do they know this? Because the DNC says so and its relayed to them by that infinitely reliable mainstream media...

But then you could they are simply regurgitating what they hear which would be true but then you'd also be saying they are the mind-numbed robots... which would also be true.... but...lol you get the picture.

Answer 11

Puppet is a word the liberals like to use against conservatives.

Then they use "supporter" for each other.



Just ignore them.

Answer 12

Its just liberal trash spewed by people who agree with moveon.org and Al Franken (for some reason, the people who agree with Al Franken call people who agree with Hannity "haters").

Answer 13

Just stay true to whatg you believe, you should be proud ur not one of those neo communist/fascist-liberals.



I have one of his books and i always listen to him on the radio and he is a brilliant guy. He knows what hes talking about and gives you the straight stuff, not twisted left wing bullshit.

Answer 14

Don't puppets possess some virtual IQ?

Answer 15

Your a sheep, you only follow. Think for yourself , get passed the talking points. Think about people that maybe have less. Show your heart and you will feel better.

Answer 16

Just sounds like typical name calling that you always see here. Sorry but you will have to grow a thicker skin.

Answer 17

BECAUSE AFTER YOU SAID YOU AGREED WITH SEAN, YOU DIDN'T IMMEDIATELY SAY "I HATE BUSH"

Answer 18

IT'S NOT JUST THAT YOU AGREE WITH HIM, IT'S THAT YOU SPEWS HIS LIES VERBATIM. IT'S LIKE YOU ARE SPOONFED YOUR OPINION AND LACK THE ABILITY TO FORM ONE OF YOUR OWN. PEOPLE LIKE YOU ONLY SPEW LIES WORD FOR WORD LIKE THAT OXYCONTIN ADDICT RUSH LIMBAUGH. YOU CAN'T COME UP WITH AN ORIGINAL THOUGHT OF YOUR OWN.
