    Here's what you need to know:

  • "Hannity" Presents: "6 Ideas to Save America"

    As this country continues to weather the economic crisis, the White House and Congressional Democrats have attempted to take advantage of the situation by rushing their agenda through the legislative process. And when conservatives across the nation come together in opposition to their proposals they are accused of being the "party of no" by people like Nancy Pelosi. She and her left-wing friends continue to use the talking point that the Republican Party has no ideas to move this country forward.

    Well, that myth is going to be cracked wide open on Thursday, April 9 when a special edition of "Hannity" brings you "6 Ideas to Save America." The hour-long special will give you six specific policy proposals courtesy of some of the leading conservative minds of our time. Featured on the program will be Sean Hannity's exclusive interview with former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, his first interview since leaving office.

    Spread the word and do not miss "6 Ideas to Save America" on Thursday, April 9 at 9PM ET.

  • Intern's Perspective: "Tell 'em, Sean!"

    Hannity Producers  | 

    033109_greatest_nationLast night while watching "The Colbert Report," Colbert touched on the perceived narcissism in America. He decided to showcase Hannity discussing how he thinks America is the greatest country on earth. In true Colbert fashion, he went after Sean's enthusiasm yet again! I'm sure I will hear a lot about this on the 'Hate Hannity' hotline today!

    Enjoy the clip from last night's show!

    I have heard from many friends recently who tell me they feel its now WRONG to disagree with the President. WHY? Because now it’s UNpopular? Because when President Bush was in office it was much more "IN" to disagree with the President? But, now? NO, not now!... Now it’s NOT really "IN" to disagree with the President. And people get offended when you do. And SOME even feel you are racist if you do. BUT, don’t you think we should be able to disagree with the President, no matter what party or race and NOT FEEL BAD ABOUT IT!?... It’s America!

    What do YOU all think?

    Actress Angie Harmon weighed in on this very topic....  (LOVE HER)

    "Here's my problem with this, I'm just going to come out and say it. If I have anything to say against Obama it's not because I'm a racist, it's because I don't like what he's doing as President and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you're called a racist," Harmon told Tarts at Thursday’s Los Angeles launch of the new eyelash-growing formula, Latisse. "But it has nothing to do with it, I don’t care what color he is. I’m just not crazy about what he's doing and I heard all about this, and he’s gonna do that and change and change, so okay … I'm still dressing for a recession over here buddy and we've got unemployment at an all-time high and that was his number one thing and that's the thing I really don't appreciate. If I'm going to disagree with my President, that doesn't make me a racist. If I was to disagree with W, that doesn't make me racist. It has nothing to do with it, it is ridiculous."
