Ted Rall meets Hannity & Colmes

Ted Rall made an appearance on Fox's Hannity & Colmes Tuesday (June 8) and as World O'Crap tells it, it was The Pot From Hell's Tirade Against the Kettle.

Alan Colmes, the liberal, um, "counterpoint" to Hannity, seemed to develop a bit of a backbone, cutting off Rall several times after asking a question, then calling to question Rall's recent op-ed on Reagan. Holmes then let Hannity do his self-serving, holier-than-thou hatchet job.

Rall became fodder for the Right Wing media machine in May with a cartoon that questioned the hoopla over Pat Tillman's heroism (about which I had a tad less ascerbic view).


Hannity:
Act as altruistic as you like. You are mean. You are cruel. You are thoughtless, and you are a hateful human being. You don't have a soul. And you don't care about anybody but yourself.

And you do this for shock value so that your name could be noticed. You're a slob. You're an absolutely -- you're a hateful human being to do this to families that are suffering.

There's no excuse for it. There's no rationale for what you're doing. You're mean, cruel and thoughtless.

Rall
Well, there you go again, Sean.
