Truth to Power

Hannity raises funds for crossdressing serial adulterer

Giuliani’s Fox-y pal cash flap

It’s no secret that Sean Hannity, the conservative Fox News commentator, has helped to raise Rudy Giuliani’s profile – but now he’s helped the former mayor raise money, too.

In a little noticed event this month, Hannity – co-host of Fox News’ “Hannity & Colmes” and host of a popular WABC radio show – introduced the Republican front-runner at a closed-door, $250-per-head fund-raiser Aug. 9 in Cincinnati, campaign officials acknowledge.

In so doing, some believe that Hannity – while clearly a commentator paid to express his opinions – crossed the line from punditry into financial rainmaking for a presidential candidate whose bottom line is now better for it.</em>

Fair and balanced, you betcha. If Oprah did fundraisers for Obama, the hypocritical pigs of Rethug Radio would be squealing for a week. Guess its ok when a lunkhead like Sean pimps for batshit crazy Rudy.

And as an aside, when are the GOP going to actually present a candidate? They have to be holding someone in the wings, because their current crop? Laughably unelectable.
