Hannity Double Standard

[trapper914]

From allaccess.com:

SEAN HANNITY ... illegal immigrant? The ABC RADIO syndicated host's visit to the civilian volunteer border-patrolling MINUTEMAN PROJECT included the host's demonstration of how easy it is to cross the U.S.-MEXICO border illegally by climbing over a barbed-wire fence and then climbing back into the U.S., and a liberal ARIZONA legislator thinks he should be prosecuted under Federal immigration law.

State Rep. KYRSTEN SINEMA (D-Phoenix) issued a press release WEDNESDAY (4/20) saying that the "well-paid commentator for FOX NEWS" was videotaped by ACLU observers in his stunt and that the BORDER PATROL was contacted but declined to arrest or cite HANNITY; SINEMA insists that "(t)his is the very same crime that MINUTEMEN have traveled across the country to ARIZONA to stop ... he committed the same crime that all individuals who enter the country illegally commit."


SINEMA claims that the BORDER PATROL and MINUTEMAN PROJECT are operating under a "double standard" with "one set of rules for television celebrities, and another for hard-working people who cross the border in search of work."

1. Minutemen, then and now:

1776: British uniformed Redcoats fighting traitors to their leader's regime.

2005: American semi-uniformed thugs fighting people wishing to escape one form of poverty for another, albeit not as bad as at least minimum wage can pay for something.
