I have to imagine that as time goes by, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity will become the last refuge for those Republicans who simply cannot accept Obama is President...

I've listened to both on and off during my drive home - and it is almost predictable that every single day, they are slamming Obama for one thing or another - and most of the things are trivial and childish to be wasting time on - like whether Obama had a flag-pin on his lapel....

What do you folks think of these 2 talk radio hosts? What do you think of Hannity's show on FOX?

Do you think they do nothing but incite hatred against Democrats (especially Obama)?

Do you agree with them most of the time?

Are you ditto- heads???

Never listen to Limbaugh. I like Hannity and I liked him long before this election and I will continue to like him after Obama has run his course. I only listen if I happen to be in the car which would be 15 minutes max usually at any given time. But I have my car radio set to talk radio so I hear Laura Ingraham, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage and occasionally Rusty Humphries, just depending on when I happen to be in the car.

I find Hannity to be a total hypocrite - he comes across as nothing but a shill for the Republican party - but pretends that he is 'fair and balanced'.. He is anything but in my opinion - as a matter of fact, I can predict what he will be talking about and what he will be slamming Obama about simply by following what is in the news that day..

The only thing I like about his tv show is Alan Colmes. At least the man can think independently... and he sometimes sides with Republicans - but leans left most of the time...

Who listens to them? The other hypocrites who religiously listen to them, and infect these forums.

All they do is whine about what other people are doing, and never offer any solutions themselves. Which is the core problem with the Right these days. They even toss poo at each other.

I don't listen to either, but I used to listen to Glen Beck. Unfortunately, he has stopped being enjoyable, and IMHO now sounds disgruntled and angry all the time.

They both sound like a couple of cry babies since the election. Sounds like they are pinning all their hopes on the fillibuster. I got bad news for em= if the Republicans try that, the fillibuster will be history with 51 votes. It is only a rule- not a law and rules can be changed. Both of them are good reasons why we need the Fairness Doctrine back in force.

I probably have. Ten to fifteen years ago I used to listen often. But over the years they became so angry and negative, and totally and completely anti-Democratic that I got annoyed and aggravated listening to them...

Nowadays I tune in from time to time just to listen to what brand of hatred they are preaching to the ditto-heads this day...

I listen to Air America and NPR these days...

Hopefully we will get the Fairness Doctrine back and Hannity will be balanced more by Colmes on radio too!
