The star-studded lineup for Hannity's "Freedom Concert"


(Rick Roberts is a San Diego clone of Rush Limbaugh)

"The Freedom Concert will honor our men and women in uniform and benefit the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund for the children of our military heroes who have been killed or permanently disabled in service to our country."

3. Hannity is a cocksucker,
He has Bush's dick so down his throat that he can't get enough oxygen to his brain- that's why he can't think clearly.

6. "Penis in a blue shirt - blue shirt - blue shirt -
"penis with a blue shirt on"




A nice enough cause but I don't see them touting any set percentage that will go to the charity. Also, in their graphic on the top the soldier is ALIVE. How about showing the widow and kids with a coffin if that's who they're raising money for?

8. 'Ollie Ollie Off Scot Free'
Ready or not, here he comes!

Who's standing over in the corner on his head
Right where his President deserted him for dead
Who is the martyr who sports a purple heart or two
It's Ollie Ollie off scot free

And who is the ham they couldn't ever get to squeal
Who's the banana overturned upon appeal
Who's that a-sloshing across the river to Washington
It's Ollie Ollie off scot free

Who played hide and seek for a decade and a week
Who thinks the White House Press Corps should never take a leak
The pride of the Annapolis alums
Ready or not, here he comes!

Who had an army of his very own to train
Who knows the market price for lobster and cocaine
Who could be fairer to international terrorists
Than Ollie Ollie off scot free

And who was the idol of the Nicaraguan youth
And who's got a funny little gap between his truth
Who learned to be dumb, and call himself a Freedom Fighter
Ollie Ollie off scot free

You may recall Ollie up against the wall
Squaring his chin and bearing his grin and kicking 'em in the cabal
And later on, contradicting George and Ron
Derring his do, preparing his coup and swearing they knew it was on

...Left, left, right, left...
Well, I don't know, but I been told
William Casey's trail is cold
Am I right or wrong? (Far right!)
Am I right or wrong? (Far right!)


Who says it's people like himself he represents
Who says, "They never found a shred of evidence!"
Who talks like Barney and makes his home in Narnia
It's Ollie Ollie off scot free

Who played hide and seek for a decade and a week
Who thinks the White House Press Corps should never take a leak
The pride of the Annapolis alums
Ready or not, here he comes!

Who's in position, packed and poised to take the hill
Whose picture's on the 35 million dollar bill
Who's got the jacket deflecting all the flack, it must be
Ollie Ollie off scot free

Who's earned his diploma
And by the way, who's homophobic
Ollie Ollie off scot free

16. Send them to prison and we'll find out who can sing loudest.
The other three? They sound like a department store, lumberjack, and a phony name on a motel register.

20. and the answer is:

Gentry is a chicken-hawk wannabe:

On August 15, 2006, Troy Gentry appeared in federal court in Duluth, Minnesota to answer charges related to canned hunting. Federal prosecutors allege that Gentry bought a bear named "Cubby" from Lee Marvin Greenly, then shot the bear on Greenly's property, and tagged the bear as if it had been killed in the wild. Gentry and Greenly were said to face a maximum penalty of five years in federal prison and a $20,000 fine if convicted.<2>
On November 27, 2006, Gentry pleaded guilty to a charge of falsely registering a captive bear as killed in the wild. Under the plea agreement, the country singer agreed to pay a $15,000 fine, give up hunting, fishing and trapping in Minnesota for 5 years, and forfeit both the bear hide and the bow Gentry used to illegally shoot the caged animal in 2004. <3> A statement has been put up on the official Montgomery Gentry website. Troy Gentry quotes, “I did participate in improperly tagging the animal I shot, without realizing the seriousness of what I was doing. For that, I am truly sorry. I relied on the experts around me for guidance, and I regret that today. Not so much because I was fined and punished, but because it appears that I don’t have respect for the law. This has been a humbling experience for me, and one which I deeply regret.”

25. I knew I had heard that name before...
Thanks for the reminder. So we have one guy who shoots caged bears and another guy who sold arms to Iran to fund death squads in Nicaragua. What a wonderful group of patriotic Amuricans huh? My god, I feel sorry for anyone who has to listen to that concert.

Edited on Fri Jul-20-07 08:34 PM by wienerdoggie
She reminds me of Meryl Streep's character in "Death Becomes Her".

Edit to add: Michelle Malkin looks like a cornered chinchilla.

23. And of course Ollie the only one who served was also the one who sold arms to Iran...
in order to fund death squads in Nicaragua. That is what the right-wingers consider to be patriotic.
