Despicable: Sean Vannity Hosts Anti-Semite Ex-Con on Yom Kippur, Allows Him to Rant About “The JOOOS”

By Debbie Schlussel

****  SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATES  ****

Did you hear Sean Hannity’s radio show, yesterday?  I don’t listen to the time-robbing ignorant blather that is a shabby re-run of the previous three hours of the far superior Rush Limbaugh show.  And I was observing Yom Kippur then, anyway.

Sean Vannity Featured Anti-Semite Jim Traficant

(Shown Here Minus Toupee as He Leaves Fed Prison)

But readers have informed me that, yesterday, Vannity hosted an anti-Semite and mostly stood by as the anti-Semite went on and on about the Jews and how bad they are.  The anti-Semite is disgraced former Congressman Jim Traficant (real name, Traficante), who is fresh from prison.

Here’s one report I received:

I did not hear this (in synagogue for Yom Kippur and also don’t listen to him anyway), but my friend heard a part of Sean Hannity‘s radio show and told me he had on a guest who was a Democratic politician who just got out of prison  and that the guest had many anti semitic comments.   My friend was stunned.

My friend, not Jewish, was stunned at what the guest said and how long it went on.

Here’s a report from an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory site:

Did anyone else catch James Traficant on Sean Hannity’s show, today?

Boy oh boy, he came out guns a blazing…

I really hope someone makes a youtube vid out of the interview, it was wild, he stated straight out that he was framed up by Israel and that in his experience as a former congressman that Israel controls the congress lock stock and barrel.

**** UPDATE: Here’s a report from commenter JM who heard the show:

I heard it yesterday driving home. Hannity is acting like the words just popped out of Traficant’s mouth. To me, though, it was clear that Hannity was prompting it so that it would be said. Then he feigned shock at such “anti-Semitic” comments from Traficant.

But he clearly tried to get him to say it. As Traficant implied to Hannity: You believe this about Jews and Israel but can’t come right out and say it or else you won’t have a show. Hannity vehemently denied this, but why else would he have Traficant on the show in the first place? It was because he agrees privately with Traficant and wanted him to make the anti-Semitic comments to a national audience.

Exactly. Good cop, bad cop. Why else–if he’s so “turned off” by anti-Semitism–is he having Traficant on his FOX show, tonight.

****  UPDATE #2:  The White supremacist site Stormfront features this comment by a person who felt that Sean made it “a fair discussion.”  When a White supremacist thinks it’s fair, that should tell you something:

Sean Hannity brought up the issue of Israel and allowed Mr. Traficant to speak his mind with Hannity occasionally saying ‘I object’.

He said something to the extent of “You and I agree on everything except when it comes to Israel Mr. Hannity,but I understand because if we’d agree on Israel you wouldn’t have a show in the mainstream media”.

He mentioned the amount of US tax payer’s money being sent to Israel and if he had his way he would cut off all funding to that area and consequently have a peace-agreement with the Middle East.

**** END UPDATES ****

This is par for the course for Vannity who’s constantly given a forum to Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, anti-Semitic “pollster” John Zogby (whose polls are always inaccurate;   remember “President Kerry”?), Hitler-loving Jew hater Pat Buchanan, lefty Ted Koppel, porn star Kim Kardashian, and neo-Nazi Hal Turner.  He pretends to disagree with them, but yet he continues to give them a forum where they run all over him.  That’s the subtle way he gives them exposure for the views that he really doesn’t disagree with.

I don’t think it was an accident or coincidence that Sean Vannity picked yesterday to host disgraced ex-Congressman Jim Traficant–one of the most anti-Israel, anti-Semitic Members of Congress and the man who constantly got in the way of efforts to deport mass-murdering Nazi John Demjanjuk.  As most of us know, yesterday was Yom Kippur–when most Jews would be in synagogue and unable to hear or respond to his vapid “You’re a Great American” radio show and Traficant’s well-known anti-Semitic views.  I don’t think Vannity hosted this newly released ex-con and disgraced political gadfly on his show on Yom Kippur “just ‘cuz.”

It’s well-known that Traficant blames “The JOOOOOS” for his federal conviction and loss of his Congressional seat.  After all, I guess all five million Jewish Americans snuck a gun through Capitol Hill security, put it to his head, and forced him take bribes, engage in racketering, and force his tax-funded Congressional staff to perform personal favors and make home improvements for him on his farm and houseboat.  And then, we Jews forced Traficant to fill out false tax forms and not declare this free work.  Then, we forced him to sign those tax forms.  Then, according to his bizarre paranoid fantasy, we Jews forced the Justice Department to prosecute him and we convinced the jury to convict him.  Yup, The JOOOS Did It!

This is the deposed Congressman that Sean Vannity thinks is a hero and worthy of a forum on his radio show on Yom Kippur, a complete slap in the face to America’s Jews.  Traficant will also be on Vannity’s eponymous FOX News self-love orgy, tonight.  But I’m sure the suits at FOX News will force Vannity to exert the taming of Traficant’s Farrakhan-like rants I’m told he refused to stop on his radio show, yesterday.  Listeners tells me that Vannity made one half-hearted statement that Traficant was anti-Semitic, but didn’t sound like he really meant it and left Traficant go on and on, with nary an interruption into  his Protocols of the Elders of Zion-like monologue.

Sadly, conservatives just don’t care that Democrat Traficant is vehemently anti-Israel and openly anti-Semitic.  Conservatives gladly looked the other way on that, just as they did with Robert Novak, just as they do with Pat Buchanan.  Because, hey, Jim Traficant said stuff against his own party on the floor of the House, and he said cute things like, “Beam me up Scotty.”  And when you do that–whether you’re Christopher Hitchens or Bob Novak–you get the blind worship of talking points conservatives like Vannity.

It’s very sad.  But when you continue to patronize Vannity, that’s what you get.  A low-class Father Coughlin wannabe attacking the Jews on Yom Kippur on a nationally syndicated “conservative” radio talk show, with the host saying little and allowing the ranting to go on and on and on.  Neo-Nazi and longtime Sean Hannity friend, Hal Turner, said that privately Vannity agreed with him on the JOOOS and the Blacks, and guests like this with their rants, are Exhibit A that Turner was telling the truth.

An anti-Semitic radio rant on ABC radio on Yom Kippur.   Thanks, Sean.  You’re a “great American.”  Oh, and when is David Duke coming on the show?

Ask yourself:  If Sean Hannity is such a hater of anti-Semitism, why–given this rant on his radio show–is he having Traficant on his cable show, tonight?

Are YOU serious? This is vile and unforgiveable.

goldenmike4393 on September 29, 2009 at 12:27 pm

    I think Mr. Trafficant thinks a powerful Jewish lobby was behind his problems with the law. Perhaps you could investigate that. There is usually more than one side to every story.It has now become the norm to attack conservative talk show hosts. Christians in the USA are the strongest supporters of Israel,but who objects to a Christian prayer at a school graduation? many times a Jew,and I believe we serve the same God.I should not be surprised, many gave Obama their support. However I believe God will take care of the Jews, as He promised, so as a Christian I continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

    MS: Ah, another anti-Semite who buys into Jew-hatred conspiracy theories. And you got more fuel for that fire from Vannity and Traficant. This is exactly what I’m talking about. Uh, there’s nothing to investigate. The Jews had nothing to do with his constant illegal behavior and mob activity. Quit blaming us and go back to your SS/Gestapo reunion. Maybe I can also investigate how the Jews are behind rain in the fall and snow in the winter, Hurricane Katrina, and the end of New Coke. Even if every single Jew voted for McCain, Obama would be President. But your embrace of anti-Semitism doesn’t help the GOP’s cause. I like Christians, but not you–we don’t need your prayers. Or want them. You share the same beliefs, apparently, as every Nazi in the Third Reich. Go to hell. Your “prayers” are worthless. DS

    m.smith on September 29, 2009 at 3:57 pm

      What’s with your constant referral to the Third Reich? You do realise that was 70-odd years ago, or does it play on your mind like a broken record? The holocaust was a lie.

      tim atkinson on October 2, 2009 at 5:26 pm

And Larry King had on Khadafi. It’s a business and they’ll get whoever on for the ratings. And people will watch or listen no matter what monster is on because that’s how people are.

NB: Larry King doesn’t pretend to have a certain ideology and have the moral high ground. Vannity does pretend to. He’s a complete hypocrite. DS

Norman Blizter on September 29, 2009 at 12:30 pm

    I just signed a petition asking Khadafi be charged with international crime of inciting genocide. Not everyone has the “stomach” to allow this…

    goldenmike4393 on September 29, 2009 at 12:34 pm

Prison must not be too harsh.

Traficant is looking well fed.

Sam Adams on September 29, 2009 at 12:41 pm

We had the chance to take action when all the world’s despots were here at the UN. I understand they have diplomatic immunity, and that we would need to be careful of other countries doing the same to our diplomats, but it would have been great to take them all into custody and let some of our spooks “question” them.

    You are right! We lost an opportunity, all assembled in one place.

    goldenmike4393 on September 29, 2009 at 1:54 pm

There is a group of individuals who are against the free trade policies and the current banking structure here and guys like Traficant and Buchannen ruin it for our voice. Being against the current banking system isn’t code for being against Jews. I know that some people say that and that is what they mean. It is ironic guys like Ron Paul, Lou Dobbs, Peter Schiff and other liberal voices like Dennis Kucinich and Ralph Nader will all agree against Free Trade, Globalization and the current Federal Reserve. I don’t believe them to be anti-Semitic. Maybe you do, but I don’t. They are latched on by others who have different agendas. I believe our trading policies have ruined our great economy. We went from industrialization to manufacturing to a service/finance/tech economy. Unfortunately these free trade deals screwed many American jobs. So we have high unemployment and because of prior free trade policies what chance to do we have to create manufacturing jobs to get us out this recession? People aren’t going to eat at a restaurant(service job) if they aint got money in their wallet. So there goes those service jobs.

In the early 90s and mid 90s people bowed down to the alter of Free Trade. They had everyone fooled. Globalizaton was the answer to expand our economy and bring emerging nation out of their poverty. That was what supposed to happen with Mexico? Remember, Clinton said NAFTA would “end illegal immigration as we know it”. Boy were they wrong. If free trade with Mexico was a great deal then why did 15 million Mexicans leave? Because free trade sucked. Wal Mart is the largest employer in Mexico now. Oh yeah now China is our greatest global partner. We outsourced our manufacturing jobs and insourced illegal aliens to screw service workers, construction and the remaining manufacturing jobs. This was capitalism? No a perverted screwing of our sovereignty and those who questioned Free Trade and Globalization were call anti-Capitalists. Some even called us anti-Semites, to silence us. Yes there were anti-Semites who blamed it all on Jews. No, I aint one of them. We got f**ked over by corporatists who disguise themselves as capitalists. True capitalism has a large pool of employers and markets. It has been twisted by just a few corporatists with massive influence. Policies are to be implemented to keep capitalism from being gamed by just a few. Remember they are “too big to fail”. Now free trade deals exist and what company would start large scale manufacturing jobs in America? We are screwed. End Free Trade, End The Fed. Remember all these lobbyists WON in the 90s and 00s with Clintons (Dems) and Bush(Repubs) and we had to bail out this disaster because it was “too big too fail.”

I saw Traficant on Greta as well. He has a large axe to grind with Jews. His problem is he was in bed with the mafia. Blackmail was a dirty game and he tasted the mafia’s money didn’t want to report it and his that is what happens when you hang around criminal syndicates. He won’t talk about his ties the mafia because he wouldn’t have made it of prison. They will own you.

CaliforniaScreaming on September 29, 2009 at 1:43 pm

    Annoying. I saw it.

    What’s the point in giving A-soles like Trafficant a soapbox on Fox?

    What’s even more annoying is that Greta van Susteren gave Trafficante way more time to spout the same drivel and didn’t even refute him, and that was just last week.

    At least Hannity ruffled his feathers a bit, but why bring him on in the first place when you know the guy is a complete kook?

    sheik yer'mami on September 30, 2009 at 8:29 am

    Dennis Kucinich, Ralph Nader, Ron Paul—all viciously opposed to Israel being able to defend itself. Go to Thomas and check out the voting records on K and P, and google Nader and Israel. Nader is Lebanese.

*Did you hear Sean Hannity’s radio show, yesterday?*

I heard it yesterday driving home. Hannity is acting like the words just popped out of Traficant’s mouth. To me, though, it was clear that Hannity was prompting it so that it would be said. Then he feigned shock at such “anti-Semitic” comments from Traficant.

But he clearly tried to get him to say it. As Traficant implied to Hannity: You believe this about Jews and Israel but can’t come right out and say it or else you won’t have a show.

It was because he agrees privately with Traficant and wanted him to make the anti-Semitic comments to a national audience.

JM on September 29, 2009 at 1:43 pm

Conservatives turn a blind eye to bigotry and hate as long as the fellow who spouts it agrees with them on a lot of the other things they do advocate. Working with people with fringe views and questionable ethics may or may not be good politics but its poor principle. The one thing Jim Traficant isn’t is a role model, what ever Sean Hannity likes to pretend otherwise. If he was committed to principle, he would never have allowed him on his show in the first place.

That says more about Hannity than it does about the guy he let give an unhinged rant against Jews on Yom Kippur.

NormanF on September 29, 2009 at 1:56 pm

I heard Trafficant too. What an idiot. I question Sean’s thought process for having him on the show…convicted felon and all that anyway. It’s not like he was convicted on a ‘technicality’.

As a political novice back in the early 90’s, I was a fan of Trafficant’s one minute House floor speeches. That’s before I learned he was going down for taking bribes.

Hannity should know better, especially trying to make up for it after the fact.

P. Aaron on September 29, 2009 at 2:01 pm

I caught tail end of show with Trafficant saying America needs to rethink mideast one sided policy and I would believe Hannity was taken aback…………Hannity reveals daily since on Radio very Pro Israel and ok with jews ,and Big fan of BB Net
Don’t blame Hannity for this timing……

B: Get a clue. It’s his show. He planned the timing. He picks the guests. And you only heard the tail end. It makes no difference what Vannity says in public (he privately feels very different according to his longtime friend, neo-Nazi Hal Turner). He constantly gives the anti-Semites the forum to say what he can’t. Good cop, bad cop. Ever heard of it? Ask yourself why Vannity is having him on again, on his FOX show, tonight, if he’s so against anti-Semitism. And try switching to a different, non-Kool Aid drink. DS

Bruce on September 29, 2009 at 2:08 pm

    Huh? Sean Hannity was cuddling up to a convicted felon and calling him a good man. Jim Traficant was a thug who finally wound up in a federal prison for his antics. Sean Hannity, after seeing how Jim Traficant behaved on his radio program, allowed him to do a curtain call on his Fox News program. Mr. Hannity was not an innocent here. I do not want any part of such a person, whether he calls himself a conservative or not. Sean Hannity has shown himself to be a younger version of Pat Buchanan who has not come out of the anti-Semite closet yet.

    Sorrow01 on September 29, 2009 at 11:35 pm

It appears the Islamic prison outreach program is still in full force, because they found a new convert.

Rick on September 29, 2009 at 2:36 pm

One thing I don’t understand. I mean no disrespect to Mr. Levin, as I think he has sterling character. But why does Mark Levin vouch for the character of Sean, and say that Sean is very kind?
Someone please help me on this.

R: Puh-leeze. Levin has no “sterling character,” not even close. When I exposed Fred Thompson’s campaign manager as the Hezbollah-financing, illegal alien supporting Spencer Abraham, Levin defended Thompson, saying this was okay b/c “he wants to win Michigan.” The guy has zero ethics or standards. It’s “my guy, right or wrong.” When the great Dorothy Rabinowitz of the Wall St. Journal supported John McCain, he attacked her as an “old bag.” He apparently hadn’t looked in the mirror lately. DS

rickster on September 29, 2009 at 2:48 pm

But isn’t Limbaugh a friend of Hannity’s? And you like Limbaugh right? If Hannity is a conservative, and he brings on Democrats who spout anti-semitic rantings, isn’t that exposing Demos for the hatemongers they are? Just asking.

Max Publius on September 29, 2009 at 3:04 pm

    Mr. Trafficant was a pariah among Democrats for his views. Sean Hannity was not trying to expose Democrats by bringing this ex-con on, but simply to raise his ratings. Trafficant had become something of a darling to conservative Republicans before they became fully aware of his legal problems. James Trafficant was expelled from the House of Representatives on a 420-1 vote in 2002 after his conviction. He is no hero, but simply a corrupt politician with a gimick.

    sorrow01 on September 30, 2009 at 2:52 am

Say what you want about the guy, but anyone with the nerve to go on national TV wearing that [backwards] toupee is just ‘special’ in my book.

#1 Vato on September 29, 2009 at 3:06 pm

Trafficant was interviewed on FOX News Greta’s show a couple of weeks ago. Didn’t want to waste my time listening to what this low life had to say, so do not know if he went on one of his anti-Jew rants with Greta. Here’s a link to the that interview on YouTube for anyone who cares to hear what he said during Greta’s interview:

jayeeegee on September 29, 2009 at 3:30 pm

I don’t listen to the “Wall Banger” (a name given to him by Michael Savage). I am a Savage listener because he does not allow such unsavory people on his show like the other so-called conservative talkshow hosts do. Why allow poisonous lies to be spread across the air waves? Michael was not on his show because he respects our traditions even if he may not have go to shul for Yom Kippur services.
Anyway, I will pray and ask G-d to shut the mouths of our enemies and prevent them from getting air time. Where were the conservatives when Savage was banned from Britain and put on a list of terrorists and murderers? They were licking their chops to see Savage go down because he isn’t one of them. Well, I would say, “Baruch HaShem for not making one of them!”
Thank you for your column and standing for righteousness.

Jeanne Smith on September 29, 2009 at 3:41 pm

    This is Jeanne,
    Please excuse the typo. I meant to write, “may not have gone to shul.” Please forgive.

    Jeanne Smith on September 29, 2009 at 4:09 pm

I heard the whole radio show yesterday. Yes, Sean’s guest was inexcusable and he did point it out several times but I don’t agree with your premise that because of it Sean is anti-Semitic. Sean constantly defends Israel and points out that Israel shows incredible restraint even though several thousand missiles are fired into Israel every year. The real anti-Semite is Barrack Obama who favors the terrorists of Hamas and Iran over Israel’s right to self-defense, peace, and existence. How many of you hell-bent against Sean Hannity voted for or even agree with Obama’s vision of the Mideast and his administrations recent talk against Israel, a loyal ally and only Democracy in the region? Please, give me a break!

J: Kool Aid is not the best beverage for you. It makes you extremely gullible and unable to read, too. In fact, as I noted, Sean had him on to spew what Sean himself cannot. He knew–as we all know–what Traficant was about. Yet, he invited him on the show to spew. And he opened up it up by asking Traficant about Israel. Why would he do that? And why have him on? Isn’t that obvious? Apparently, you have a problem reading between the lines, even when the obvious is smacking you in the face. Quit being so naive and wake the heck up. Talk is cheap but deeds–like constantly inviting on and giving a barely interrupted forum to anti-Semites like this guy, Pat Buchanan, and Hal Turner–speak far louder. Too those of us who are willing to listen instead of singing the Seanmessiah BS. You don’t need a break. You need a brain. I voted against Obama for McCain. Get a clue. You are obviously not a regular reader of this site. DS

Jim on September 29, 2009 at 4:36 pm

I heard the show and my impression was that Sean was not pleased with what Trafficant was saying. Sean said that if Israel goes down, America will go down also. However, I don’t know why he was surprised that Trafficant is a kook – I guess his toupee was on too tight! Hannity also talked about how dangerous Iran is. I agree, however, that he and others have got to stop having the despicable Pat Buchanan on as a guest. The man long ago showed that he is a soft on Nazis/Jew hating creep. Something is very, very wrong with that man and he should not be treated as an “honored guest”. I will also never understand how the Rev. Al was able to “rehabilitate his image” after Tawana Brawley, etc. As for Robert Novak, I have already written about his self-hatred and hatred for Jews. On another subject: does anybody know if Dick Morris actually converted out? He supposedly did after his scandal but something gives me the impression he did not. He remains very pro Israel.

JJ: Another Kool Aid drinker. As I noted, Sean had him on knowing what the guy stood for and initiated the anti-Semitic rant by asking him about Israel. Then, he plays good cop, bad cop. PUH-LEEZE, read between the lines. Sean’s lip service is bunk. He had Traficant on to say what he cannot. There was no point in having him on, otherwise. When does David Duke get his shot? DS

JulieJ on September 29, 2009 at 4:51 pm

    I have real problems with Sean and rarely watch his tv show now that Colmes is gone (although he was a loon, I found him amusing). Listen to the whole tape – I don’t think Hannity was defending Traficant.

    J: Hello–he invited him to be on his show! Why did he have him on? Why did he ask a convicted felon fresh out of prison about Israel? Your hero Sean is a anti-Semite enabler and deliberately provides a forum for anti-Semitism. I suppose you’ll also defend when Sean has on Hitler and David Duke, then feigns ignorance and outrage of their views. Get real. DS

    JulieJ on September 29, 2009 at 5:09 pm

    “On another subject: does anybody know if Dick Morris actually converted out? He supposedly did after his scandal but something gives me the impression he did not. He remains very pro Israel.”

    No, Julie, I do not think Dick Morris has converted. I seem to recall his recently mentioning on either O’Reilly or Hannity that he was Jewish.

    jayeeegee on September 29, 2009 at 5:39 pm

The defense of Novak by people whom I used to respect, such as William Bennett (“Novak said he was not moved by Reformed Jewish services” – then find another shul!) made me sick. And yes, on Free Republic there were people gloating about the “illustrious” Jewish converts to other religions. They can keep the late Robert Novak! We don’t want him. I won’t mention any names but I know an ex Episcopalian who changed religion because he thought that his church had become “too liberal like the Democratic party”. When you leave, you let the crazies take over and win. And then you get to be smug about it.

JulieJ on September 29, 2009 at 4:55 pm

I heard Sean state that Trafican’t spewing his garbage on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year, was terrible. (On any day it would be terrible.) Listen to the whole tape.

J: Uh, Julie, WAKE. THE. HECK. UP. Your defense of this outrage is hilarious. Who do you think invited Traficant on the show on Yom Kippur? Get a clue. Here’s a hint: his name is in the show title. Are you really that naive and ignorant? Do you really think he invited him by mistake (or someone put a gun to his head?) and didn’t know his views? Why do you think he opened up the conversation and asked Traficant about Israel? Did he ask a man who just got out of federal prison for bribery and misusing tax-paid Congressional staff about Israel, by accident or coincidence? Hello . . .? Ever hear of good cop, bad cop? Your hero, Sean Vannity is a liar, a fraud, and a scumbag. WAKE! UP! DS

JulieJ on September 29, 2009 at 5:13 pm

Puppets of FoxNews: Vanity, O’Reily and Beck. Silenced by Prince Abdullah? Why didn’t they jump on the claim of Kadaffi called Obama “his son” and African born? His “son”. WTF? Kadaffi knows Obama is on his side, Muslim or not.

CaliforniaScreaming on September 29, 2009 at 5:15 pm

I think it’s hilarious that you all think Sean wears a toupee. lol That and his supposed anti-semitic ways. Very funny indeed. It isn’t the Sean I know. It perplexes me how so many have vile hatred for a man who is decent, loves his country, is conservative to the core, and hosts the Freedom Concert every year – among other things.

C: Another Kool Aid Drinker and gullible Seanmessiah follower. Try checking the Freedom Concert’s tax forms. Hundreds of thousands are spent to ferret Sean and his posse around, and almost no money goes to the troops. It’s a scam. But then, Seanmessiah is capable of no scams. He’s the savior, right? Please, get a brain. And a clue. Wha’ts perplexing is that so many idiots, like yourself, stand by as he twice gives a forum to a vile anti-Semite. If this is “conservative” to the core, no wonder the conservative movement is in trouble. The only thing vile here is your ignorance and stupidity. Oh, and please learn to read. If you had even the slightest clue, you’d know we said James Traficant wears a toupee. You don’t know Sean Vannity. You’re clearly just another clueless blind fan. DS

Carmen P on September 29, 2009 at 5:17 pm

    Carmen – learn how to read, you moron. Have you been drinking Vannity’s Kool Aid today? The toupee they are talking about is the one that Traficant wears. And if Vannity actually needed a toupee, he wouldn’t get one. He would spend tens of thousands of dollars to get hair transplants. Also, do you actually watch him on TV? He wears more make up than a cheap hooker.

    Jarhead on September 29, 2009 at 6:19 pm

In South Africa it was a moral outrage that 10 percent of the white population had the reigns of power. Liberal Jews literally run ever major film production in America, have a political power base that is utterly disproportinate to their numbers and own the NY times which feeds almost every major news paper in the country. There are 30 million blacks in America and 5-6 million Jews and 80 percent of each group would identify with the Democratic party. There are no black senators and liberal Jews outnumber blacks by a 2-1 margin in congress. Again, the federal bench has 10 times the number of liberal Jews in robes v.s. blacks. Yet to ask why such a small number of people have such power disproportinate to their numbers is not only wrong but it has to have a label–anti-semitisim.

J: Ah, another anti-Semite fan of Sean Vannity and James Traficant. DS

John on September 29, 2009 at 7:15 pm

    So John, let me get this straight: You’re not an anti-semite, but like Trafficant you believe there is a Jewish cabal in this country that runs the media, Congress, and the court system. It couldn’t be that, per capita, there are more Jewish justices and senators than blacks because more Jews are higher achievers and have a much higher percentage of college and law school education than blacks. And, of course, the NY Times is another Jewish cabal – that’s why it runs so many anti-Israel, pro-Paelstinian articles.

    No, according to John, and those like him, it is some nefarious Jewish cabal that is running the country, or even the world. It must be true, because Iran’s Ahmadidnejab always says the same thing and everyone knows he can’t be anti-semitic. If only those like John could give me names – I want names – of those responsible, not just the “Jooos,” I would be more convinced.

    jayeeegee on September 29, 2009 at 7:59 pm

    Who is Senator Roland Burris? Is he Chinese? The rest of your post is not even worthy of a serious reply. If you find Stormfront old hat, you might try Islam instead. You would fit right in.

    Sorrow01 on September 30, 2009 at 9:11 am

One other thought, the majority of conservatives and especially Christians are supporters of Israel and it’s very existence. The lefties on the other hand, hate Israel and support it’s enemies.

Your anger needs to be directed to them.

Listen to the whole Hannity tape – don’t go by what I recall about it. And no, I am not a big Hannity fan and rarely and I mean rarely – watch his tv show. He is not my hero. In fact, I wish his radio station would replace him with Steve Malzberg who is much smarter and has more street sense than Sean. As for John, the anti-Semite, thank you for the usual anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. And for the record, the New York Slimes has not been “Jewish owned” for decades. The latest Sulzberger is an Episcopalian. And the Slimes covered up the Holocaust among other atrocities. The “Jewish owned” nonsense makes me laugh. Most “Hollywood Jews” would not know what a synagogue is if it fell on them!

Not fair. I heard Hannity condemn him as an anti-semite. Hanity called him an anti-semite and was very clear that he was not happy and very surprise with what he stated on his show. I know you have it out for Hannity, but fair is fair.

D: Wow, you’re incredibly gullible. If he wasn’t happy with it, why did he have him on the show and then have him on his cable show again? And why did he–Vannity–open up the discussion by asking Traficant about Israel? Because he knew what Traficant would say. Wake. The. Heck. Up. Ever hear of good cop, bad cop? Ever hear of critical thinking? Being fair is actually using your brain and asking yourself, gee, Why did my hero Sean have an open anti-Semite on his show, TWICE?! And why did my hero Sean Vannity ask the anti-Semite about Israel? What’s fair is when I’m arguing with people who have brains. Not the case here, sadly. You’ve never left a comment on this site, so it’s quite clear you came here at the instruction of the “You’re a Great American” crowd at Vannity.com. DS

Sean Hannity is not the anti-semite that he might be portrayed by association. Unlike Brzezinski, he is not advocating shooting Israeli planes out of the sky. Perhaps a better description of Sean Hannity is BORING, because he repeats the same thing over and over again with lots of aphorisms. “You’re a great American”…. yawn.

As Debbie pointed out if every single Jew had voted for McCain, Obama would still be President. Yes, I don’t think 80% of Jews should have voted for him but conservatives don’t make it easier when they defend the likes of Hannity, Buchanan and the late Novak. What Hannity did as I said earlier, told us more about him than the guy he interviewed. He appears to share Traficant’s views but can’t say so and remain viable as a talk show host. If the Right wants to be credible with Jews, it must stop trying to have it both ways. Then perhaps more Jews will give conservatives a hearing.

“Quit blaming us and go back to your SS/Gestapo reunion. Maybe I can also investigate how the Jews are behind rain in the fall and snow in the winter, Hurricane Katrina, and the end of New Coke.”

Debbie, I do have to thank you for getting rid of ‘New Coke’. (kidding, of course)
A couple of years ago, when Hannity plagerized you, it raised red flags. I expected him to ‘fess up, credit you with the work…and nothing. I haven’t watched his show or listened to the radio program since. Funny how I don’t feel like I’ve missed anything.
I didn’t know Traficant was out. President Obama will probably make him Ambassador to Israel.

Douglas Q on September 29, 2009 at 8:58 pm

Limbaugh used to like Trafficant. I remember him playing lots of Trafficant rants that he liked back when Trafficant was a Congressman. In fact I distinctly remember Limbaugh asking Trafficant to come on over to “our side” a number of times on his radio show after playing the clips. Well, 99.9% certain, anyway. Maybe someone else remembers this as well?

MrC_5150 on September 29, 2009 at 9:07 pm

    I remember Limbaugh playing Traficant’s ‘minutes’ on Rushs’ TV show. That’s where I first saw Traficant. It was before he was indicted on bribery charges. At that point in time, maybe the FBI knew about Traficant’s bribe taking. Traficant was indicted years later: 2002, long after Rush’s TV show was over (around 1994) and JT’s House floor ‘minute speeches’ were publicized.

    P. Aaron on September 29, 2009 at 10:21 pm

hi, he is complete hypocrite! agreed; he plays the good/bad cop game all the time, its just a big dumb game.

lindapolver on September 29, 2009 at 9:08 pm

Hey Debbie!

I’m listening to Sean Hannity now. Maybe he got your memo or sumping because he is taking on James Trafficant over his anti-Semitism.

Maybe Sean is coming on strong because of you.

Trafficant claims now he isn’t an anti-Semite — hah!

U: PUH-LEEZE. Sean Vannity isn’t taking anyone on over their anti-Semitism. If he were truly against anti-Semitism, he wouldn’t have had Traficant on his show and he wouldn’t have opened up the anti-Semitic discussion by asking this ex-con about Israel. Period. Sean is a fraud who put this guy on his show to air his anti-Semitism, b/c Sean can’t get away with saying it himself. DS

Underzog on September 29, 2009 at 9:20 pm

DS

Do you hate everyone? You and Charles Johnson should get hitched.

Hannity is about as pro-Israel as it gets. You are an ignorant attention whore.

Jay on September 29, 2009 at 9:20 pm

    Jay, comparing DS to that egomaniac Charles Johnson is unfair. True, both of them just hate to hear from commenters who disagree with them.

    The difference is that, if you post a comment that they don’t like, CJ will ban you from commenting on his site, while DS might just berate you by telling you to “wake up,” “get a clue,” and “stop drinking the Kool Aid.”

    jayeeegee on September 29, 2009 at 9:42 pm

Hannity must have read this post because he is confronting the ex-con on it tonight. However, Hannity was a wus about it. He left it as “lets agree to disagree”. Shameful.

Hannity is a Wus on September 29, 2009 at 9:22 pm

With all due respect, Yom Kippur is a “Jewish” holiday, not an American holiday. Most Americans probably don’t even know it is Yom Kippur day on the day it falls on anyway. What’s the fuss?

RobbieK on September 29, 2009 at 9:58 pm

Traficante was on Greta (the Scientologist) about right after he got out of jail. He stated his paranoid anti-Semitic views and Greta kind of giggled, as I recall. I was appalled at the raw Jew hatred and paranoia of this ex-con. As will all sociopathic losers–it was the fault of the Jews.

lexi on September 29, 2009 at 10:39 pm

debbie.i love ya. it would break my heart to think that sean hannity is a anti-semitic as you think he is.i know the show has to have shock value to be entertaining and keep the ratings up.i live in md and listen to tom marr all the time. iknow you know who he is. to me no one is more pro israel than he is.he also is tight with mark levin who is tight with sean.i can see where people are coming from by the company they keep.i have read your site for years and appreciate what you do. you are on the front line. i have no idea what you go throughin detroit. it must be like another planet.i pray for the peace of israel all the time.keep up the good work.

kevin on September 29, 2009 at 10:51 pm

By the way. Michael Savage linked this article on his site as I first saw this on his site mentioning your name.

adam on September 29, 2009 at 11:41 pm

Sean Hannity had Trafficant on his radio and television program, so it was not a one off deal. If Mr. Hannity had him on only one of his shows, his apologies would have been more credible. As it stands, protestations from Hannity notwithstanding, Mr Hannity knew what he was getting into, and had no problem with it.

Did Stormfront go offline for you?

sorrow01 on September 30, 2009 at 2:33 am

I say throw him off the air! I would love to hear someone else but him! He is just a Rush Limbaugh re-tread! He has been since he has first been on the air about a decade ago. Just send an e-mail to webmaster@wabcradio.com and put in the subject line to Jim Robinson. He is the president of Citadel Media who signs the contracts for this bozo. Can’t stand him!!!

Flatbush Bubby on September 30, 2009 at 9:34 am

HANNITY IS A SISSY, A REAL KISS ASS AND A PHONEY AND ALL FOR HIMSELF.ANYTHING FOR RATINGS! WHY DOES NOT HE MENTION MIKE SAVAGE WHO SEZ WHAT’S ON HIS MIND AND WHAT PEOPLE REALLY BELIEVE BUT ARE AFRAID TO SAY.HANNITY YOU AND YOUR GREAT AMERICAN PANEL SUCKS!!!!! WHY DO YOU HAVE BOB BECKLE ON FOR??????????????? HE IS AN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!! AND YET YOU LET HIM SPEW HIS GARBAGE..OH YEAH FAIR AND BALANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR REAREND ISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

vic on September 30, 2009 at 9:40 am

    i couldn’t say better myself. i saw him on tv yesterday for 30 sec!!! but maybe he brought him to show how craizy dems are.

    Sue on September 30, 2009 at 10:54 am

K!kes are vermin that need to be exterminated once and for all! The holohoax is a lie, but millions of dead jooz would be a great thing for planet Earth!

walt235 on October 2, 2009 at 2:47 pm

Traificant was 100% correct. Anti-semitism is a completely rational human response to an absolutely repulsive and vial people.

6 million did not die and there were no gas chambers.

J: Spoken like a true Sean Hannity fan. Have fun at the SS/Gestapo reunion. DS

jack on October 2, 2009 at 6:59 pm

    Yes, the absolutely repulsive people that eliminated polio from this world, and enabled diabetics to live.

    You know, Jack, I’m Jewish, and I get confused regarding the numbers and times of conspiracies I’m running. Can you get me a calendar?

    Occam's Tool on September 18, 2010 at 8:52 pm

we all know Hannity and the pigs at Fox News are anti semites and racists

Now that Republicans dont have power, they dont have to suck up to the jews anymore to keep them quiet

It should be legal to kill the people at Fox News for what they did the United States

Kill Republicans on October 2, 2009 at 7:31 pm

Fox News is very clever, they knew most Jews were in temple and they could get away with this

The people at Fox News need to pay dearly for what they did to the USA

Kill Republicans on October 2, 2009 at 7:34 pm

Do you ever notice the Anti Semites like Sean Hannity, Don Black, David Duke have these cold dead evil satanic looking eyes, I wonder why that is

They are either cold and dead like Don Black, or evil and satanic looking like Sean Hannity or somewhere in between

Bill O Reilly has them that guy who shot that Holocaust museum has them, I wonder why that is, you can tell alot about a person by looking at their eyes

Kill Republicans on October 2, 2009 at 7:45 pm

Kikes seem to be a good source of alternative energy. We need to harvest the parasitic bastards!

walt235 on October 3, 2009 at 4:37 am

Wow, what an enlightened comment. Makes me feel very comfortable about the future of Jews. It’s a good thing we have Israel …

Rachel on January 18, 2010 at 10:21 pm

Hannity is NOT an anti Semite. That is just wrong.
He is just the opposite and to accuse him of such will do nothing but hurt your cause at trying to convince people to accept the fact that some radical Arabs are trying to ruin capitalism.
You are definitely going after the wrong people.
Stop trying to get media attention and start telling the truth.

tom smith on July 11, 2010 at 11:29 pm

Perhaps the reason we Jews have higher success rates in professions is that we have a secret weapon called a Jewish Mother(& father)! Perhaps it is because the Jewish Community is proud of successful students, scholars and teachers. Even a tailer or laborer could be proud of being a Biblical scholar. Perhaps it is the discipline of learning a second language at an early age? Perhaps it is because we were not allowed to own property in Christian Europe, were frequently forced to escape pogroms, and needed portable means of earning a living like business acumen, skilled trades and professions. Perhaps we were were made a cohesive community and successful by the very anti-Semitic forces that have always tried to destroy us. “Supporting Israel” is not the same as supporting the Jewish Community in Israel. Some of the conservative Christians I have met know little of their history and Jewish Biblical heritage. They have a mission to convert the Jews and fulfill their Rapture prophesy. That kind of “friendship” we don’t need! We actually don’t want to be converted and will fight this form of cultural genocide tooth and nail.
Hannity and friends will always find someone to scapegoat because there are folks ignorant enough tune in and buy it. Remember, everyone became a member of a minority group the instant their ancestors arrived in America. Jews, Gays, & Muslins this month, which one of you are next?
