Overheard on the Sean Hannity Show this afternoon on the drive home from work:
Sean: Lets go to Fred from Chicago. Fred, youre on the Sean Hannity Show
Fred: Sean, thanks for taking my call. You are a great American
Sean: Fred, YOU are a great American...
STOP RIGHT THERE!
How in the world can Sean Hannity possibly know that this disembodied voice claiming to be Fred from Chicago belongs to a man who is, in fact, a GREAT AMERICAN???? The ONLY thing that Sean Hannity knows about Fred is that Fred thinks that SEAN is a great American. Is Sean Hannity so egocentric and vain that he believes the someones expression of HIS great American-ness is all it takes to make that someone a great American as well?
I immediately flashed to a Star Trek episode where Vulcans greated one another with Live Long and Prosper.
You are a Great American You are a Great American... it has become a greeting for people who apparently dont have a clue what it means.
If Jeffrey Dahmer were alive today and called Sean Hannity and Sean had said, Lets go to Jeffrey from Milwaukee. Jeffrey, youre on the Sean Hannity Show and Jeffrey had said, Sean you are a great American, you KNOW that Hannity would have replied, And YOU are a great American, Jeffrey... or... YOU are a great American, Tim McVeigh... or... YOU are a great American, Benedict Arnold.
It is clear to me that Sean Hannity does not have a fucking CLUE what being a great American entails. It CERTAINLY entails MORE than being an adoring fan of Sean Hannity, that is for DAMNED sure.
