AI Thread Summary
Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh have been promoting the idea that the stock market decline is an "Obama recession," attributing the downturn to fears surrounding Barack Obama's presidency. Analysts, however, dispute this claim, arguing that the market's decline is unrelated to Obama's election. The discussion highlights a broader sentiment that the recession is a result of multiple factors, including the federal government's handling of the financial crisis and the original bailout plan. Critics express concern over the influence of conservative talk radio in shaping public perception, suggesting that fears about Obama's administration are more a product of media narratives than actual policy implications. The conversation also touches on the complexities of the financial crisis, emphasizing that it stems from systemic issues rather than the actions of any single political figure. Overall, the thread reflects a contentious debate over the intersection of media, politics, and economic realities.

I like how Hannity is the buff, handsome guy ...

I'm complaining to my cable operator.

He comes out like a smug pompous Jabba the Hut in a suit on my tv.

Haw haw. No, compare him to Colmes. He's bigger (not fatter, but a bigger build), has more hair, and his face doesn't look like he has been dead for 3 days.
