Today on Tommy T’s Obsession with the Freeperati – character assassination edition
tommyfd
Morning, all! This week’s Obsession is dedicated to the characters the Freeperati love so dearly, and how quickly they’re ready to shoot them to death (in a metaphorical sense, natch) when they stray from the path of the True Scotsman Conservative.

Good answer.
And now the knives come out.

All right! We have a falafel-fanboy! Let’s have some Hannity-love, please?

Didn’t Sean have enough liberals on at night?

Hannity can go away for all I care. All he does is repeat is talking points. Plus, hopefully this will cut down on Rove’s appearances on Fox.

That was going to be my guess.
Hannity has his radio show, but he’s become repetitive, interruptive, and usually interruptive over stupid personal inside jokes not pertinent to the discussion at hand. He also misses too many rebuttal opportunities and falls back on his repetitive talking points too often.
I expect Kelly to provide a sharper focus and challenge to her interviews, but I fear that she leans much further to the Left than people think – – at least to the Left of Hannity.

“All he does is repeat the same crap to every guest.”
Yes. Hannity is like a wind-up doll who at any given moment has about 40 memorized phrases. He merely accesses the phrase the fits the moment. Tiresome and dull.

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Gov. Chris Christie plans to sign a bill Monday barring licensed therapists from trying to turn gay teenagers straight, making New Jersey the second state to ban so-called conversion therapy, along with California.

What an idiot! This is just plain evil, trying to keep people in a deathstyle they want to get help for.

Any remaining delusions of conservatism with regard to Christie should have completely evaporated with this move.
I cannot see him repudiating any marriage redefinition bill that crosses his desk now. How can he, when he admittedly sees homosexuality as inborn and “not a sin?” Wait for a full-on assault by the Gaystapo legislature to pass a new one quickly.

This fatass bastard is a liberal democrat who has finally came full circle. I have heard him speak before about being a “catholic”. He says he does not agree with the Catholic Church’s position that “homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered .” They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life”. Gov. Donut thinks you are born queer and there is no getting around it. He thinks trying to get someone to change is a waste of time. He also thinks it’s perfectly fine for sodomites to adopt and raise children, once again going against the teachings of the Catholic Church. He also believes in selective abortion, thinking is fine to murder a child in cases of rape, incest and life of the mother. Typical RINO talk. And this POS calls himself a Catholic. He’s no better than Nancy Pelosi as far as sticking his middle finger up to the Catholic Church.

In soviet Russia, Catholic Church sticks it’s middle finger up at you!
Friday morning, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange participated in an online chat session hosted by Campus Reform, in which he offered up some special praise for conservatives Matt Drudge and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY). Assange applauded The Drudge Report for disrupting the “self-censorship of the establishment press” and held up Paul as one of the most “principled” members of the U.S. Congress.
Responding to questions from Campus Reform editor-in-chief Josiah Ryan, Assange began by calling Drudge a “news media innovator” who has been on the rise since the Monica Lewinsky scandal. “It is as a result of the self-censorship of the establishment press in the United States that gave Matt Drudge such a platform,” Assange said, “and so of course he should be applauded for breaking a lot of that censorship.”
He also noted that social media has supplanted much of what Drudge is known for, which he described as “collecting interesting rumors that looked like they might be true and publishing them.” Assange said he only agrees with “some” of Drudge’s political opinions.
