Hannity Rules !:
Go print out a copy of your stock report and masturbate on it.
Oh God, I’m coming!
Oprah had Frank Rich on the other day and the topic of the day was “Truth in America”. Bush’s poll numbers “have fallen and can’t get up”.
Boy, was she ever nervous. She’s afraid of getting any more sick E-mail from freepers. Hannity can only wish he had an audience like Oprah.
Hey, just ignore the SELF INCRIMINATING FOOL (I wasn’t the only one who caught that, right?) You just give them energy by acknowledging them.
