For the Record

Some quotes to keep in your arsenal. Don’t forget — criticizing the commander-in-chief at a time of war is bad.

“The only ideas that they espouse are ways to undermine the troops in harm’s way and undermine their commander in chief while they’re at war. Your candidates have no idea how to keep this economy strong.”
–Sean Hannity, 10/18/06

“He’s the Commander-in-Chief. And what I find frankly repugnant about you and some of your fellow Democrats – you have undermined our president…”

–Sean Hannity, 03/19/06

“You know, Norman, those comments while we are at war, while troops are in harm’s way, while he is the commander in chief, do you not see the outrage in that?”

–Sean Hannity, 11/12/07

“I have had it with members of your party undermining our troops, undermining a commander in chief while we are at war…”

–Sean Hannity, 11/05

“You don’t criticize the Commander-in-Chief in the middle of a firefight. That could be construed as putting U.S. forces in jeopardy and undermining morale.”

–Bill O’Reilly, 04/04

“Can we do it without distorting their legacies and pandering to anti-American elites worldwide and using their deaths to embarrass and undermine our commander in chief?”

–Michelle Malkin, 11/23/05

“On the other hand, if Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Democrat Congress are successful in undermining the commander-in-chief (thereby emboldening the terrorists to kill more Americans in Iraq)…”

–Tom DeLay, 04/11/07

“And furthermore, one of the fundamental principles we have in America is that the president is the commander in chief of the armed forces and attempts to undermine the commander in chief during time of war amounts to treason.”

–Pat Robertson, 12/07/05

    Silly Bob, don’t you know it’s different now?

  • cminri

    Yeah..that was then ..this is NOW.

  • FrictionSoul

    Yeah, this is NOW, and this war is over, therefore they will criticize the POTUS like mad.

    I intend to handle the situation this way:Every time one of my right-wing hooplehead acquaintances says something bad about Obama, I will go all Sean Hannity all over their ass, and tell them that criticizing the President in a time of war is tantamount to treason.It’s gonna be fun.

    Bob…next time you publish that many Sean Hannity quotes – could you warn us first? Kind of like a Public Service Announcement? That was tough to take first thing in the morning! (I almost felt like I was watching Morning Schmoe).

    Of course, there is also a very large selection of quotes from republicans during the whole Kosovo thing where they were ripping Clinton.

    The old do as I say, not as I do will always be their MO.

    PS: I am your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate.

    Jesus, Cesca…you just don’t get it. Would have thought by now you had learned to read the code.No patriotic American is under any obligation to support a black, Muslim, Arab, socialist, communist, soft on crime, talkin’ to our enemies, pallin’ around with unrepentant domestic terrorist, baby-killin’, recession causin’, vote fraud election stealin’, only elected cuz we let the darkies vote sham of a president.It’s not, like, hypocrisy…y’know…all of this is just assumed, inherent, factory standard.I think we best check into Cesca’s background. Beginning to look like there might be some undesirable ancestors squirming around back there. What sort of name is Cesca, anyway? Is that a Jew name?

    defending anyone with a (D) next to their name,especially a black one with a foreign african muslimy sounding name simply does not fit into a republican’s hyper jingoistic masturbating to the flag type definition of patriotism.also,the rules of “loving your country” only apply to those living in the “real america”.
