Summary: A Mishmash of Modern Conservatism
Review: First, I wish to state my own politcal bent. I consider myself a liberal, but I also hope that I am open to all conclusions based on reliable facts. It is hard to get away from one's own bias. Hence, take what I say with a grain of salt.Hannity writes from a feeling of emotion, defending those values that he was probably raised with and feeling a need to impose them upon others. His enemies are the cursed liberals, who, though not intentionally, undermine the strength of Amerca and everything that makes our nation great. The way to reverse this trend, according to Hannity, is to strengthen the military, return to the Judeo-Christian morality that this country was founded on, and reaffirm our old-fashioned patriotism. The Ten Commandments must be displayed in public places as well. Should we in fact follow Hannity's advice, we would be living in the most oppressive state America has been since at least the 1950's. There are scores of contradictions in the book. Many "facts" are dubious. The "freedom fighters" of Nicaragua-the Contras-were in fact one of the most brutal paramilitary forces America has ever supported (and that has a lot of competition). The Sandinista gov't they were fighting against was probably the best one of Central America, with the possible exception of Costa Rica. Yes, the Sandinistas had ties to the Soviet Union and Cuba, but even there our perception is distorted by Cold War realpolitik. One particular part of Hannity's book is standing out in my mind as I read this: The part in which he asks how a fuel-burning SUV can possibly be more dangerous that a flag-burning SOB. I am still struggling with the line of logic that leads to this conclusion. Just for my own gratification...does anyone here know the comparison between the amount of exaust SUVs dump into the atmosphere compared to that of flags? Flag-burning serves two purposes: Fueling reactionaries such as Mr. Hannity and exercising one's freedom of speech, to which, it seems, Hannity is deeply opposed. Hannity's book is important to read because it gives a fairly good picture of the modern conservative's viewpoints. Obviously, political opnions don't appear from nowhere; they usually have legitimate points that should be discussed and considered. I am willing to consider Hannity's views (I've read his book), and I would never censor anything he has to say, or prevent him from exercising his beliefs. I only wish that he would do the same for me.

Summary: Get Hannitized with this well thought out book
Review: Don't pay attention to the haters bashing this book. If they have to insult Hannity and conservatives to try and convnice you not to buy this book, then they are simply appealing to the close-minded. Surely that isn't you?
Hannity has earned his success by being an intelligent, honest, likable defender of conservative ideals...and this book is what you would expect if you're a fan of Sean's.
He is a fiercly proud conservative, and points out what is wrong with the ideals and philosophies of the left...without resorting to viciousness and character attacks.
Conservatives will enjoy this book, and take from it a lot to debate their liberal friends with. I would recommend this book to liberals who genuinely want to hear a conservative viewpoint that doesn't berate or insult you for thinking differently.
Hannity & Colmes is an excellent, balanced, conservative/liberal debate show. As a conservative, I plan on reading Alan Colmes's book...and if you're a liberal, read Sean's.

Summary: The country needs to get "Hannatized!"
Review: One of the reviews on this site states that Sean Hannity is an "eastcoast version of Rush Limbaugh." This pin-headed statement shows that the intelligencia, the literatti, et. al. don't get it when it comes to conservation commentators. Rush may have been a pioneer in terms of paving the way for conservative commentary to challenge the left's long-held hegemony on the airwaves, but Hannity has earned a place at the table with his excellent work, independent of anyone's coat-
tails. Sean writes with a passion for patriotism that I find refreshing. His compelling writing style challenges the reader to keep in the forefront of his/her thinking just what has made, and kept America great. Mr. Hannity's work thorough, passionate w/out demagoguery. He has a clear-eyed view of the political system. After reading his book, I have a better appreciation of his work on Fox News. If all you know of Sean Hannity is from this program, his book will be a real delight.

Summary: Liked it
Review: Let Freedom Ring: Winning the War of Libert over Liberalism is exactly like it's title. Sean Hannity is conservative and he bashes liberals in the book. He gives his opinion on why he thinks were doing a good job on the fight against terror. He tells you what he thinks we need to to do all that. I do listen to Sean Hannity and sometimes catch his debate show on Fox news. I do think he is a lot like Rush Limbaugh, but he is different. He isn't as bold or as loud as Rush. I think he is more positive than Rush, and he's definelty a lot more positive than Michael Moore and Al Franken. He's a fresh breath of air to Talk Radio and it's a great book. If your conservative you should love it. If your liberal don't even bother picking the book up. Look at the title. He is obviously going to tell you stuff you don't want to hear so listen to me and save yourself some time and posibly money. I liked and would reccomend it to all conservatives.

Summary: Real sick of the fake patriotism
Review: The fake patriotism going on in america right now is making me physically ill. People think by yelling "I love america more than you do!" will somehow make those of us with fully functional brains not know what is really going on. Only the feeble-minded fall for those moronic tactics. They hide behind the flag while at the same time pushing for their fascist agenda. Throw this one in the garbage bin.

Summary: Why Is He denying His Roots??
Review: Yo, everyone knows Hannity got his start by being a secratery for the much loved Michael Moore!! Yet one day he felt he had intersting things to say just as Moore does, and he jotted down some of his ideas and gave them to Moore to see if he wood consider publishing them one day. Well, Moore was very impressed with what Hannity wrote, his views were a bit more liberal than those of Moore, but Moore still agreed to publish them one day. Well, that one day never came and this made dorky ol' Hannity mad and he stormed outta Moore's office chanting "I'll never be yer secratery again and one day the world will know my views and mine onlyyyyyy!!" But he just couldn't rehash Moore ideas so he acted like he had something to say by totally changing his views to conservative and being as pig headed about it as possible!! Wow, this guy has become worse than Bill O' Reily or that guy from the "Savage Nation" radio show!! And this is all just to get back at his former homie Michael Moore!! What a way to deny your TRU roots!! Don't fall for this, his book is very hateful, full of lies, and not well written. He should of stuck with being a secratery instead!! Also his suits and ties are very ugly. Support Michael Moore!! Peace out peeps....

Summary: Buffoon
Review: One of the "paid" reviews compares Hannity to Rush Limbaugh. At least we know that the "big fat idiot's" rambling inanities can be attributed to taking hundreds of pain killers every day. So far we have no explanation for Hannity. On the other hand, look at his audience. Wanna know where the WMDs are? Look at the people who buy Hannity books. That's what they are. They are esssentially good solid Americans lacking in enough intelligence to know when they're being conned. But go ahead, pump money into Hannity's pocket for telling you what you want to hear.

Summary: A humane and generous exploration of our moral future
Review: Though surprisingly difficult to read due to its turgidity and somewhat academic tone, Hannity's book is nevertheless a call to arms, a summons to action for anyone who appreciates the connection between the subconscious linguistic structures of oppression that populate our discourse, with their "either/or" dichotomies and "male/female" configurations of dominance, and the need for a "third way," not in the Clintonian sense of randomly selecting the best from all comers, but in a more coherent sense, by attaining a kind of ongoing communication with our deeper, more morally centered selves, in this fragmented age of overweening media imagery. Hannity locates freedom in the food we eat, the lives we build, the messages we pass on to our kids. The book is a suprising, but welcome, testimonial, bearing witness to the value of intimacy. For this, we thank him. Still, though, he's a complete schmuck.

Summary: Hannity goes to find scapegoat.
Review: Just a poorly written partisan book. There is no objective analysis on any political or social issue. Wherever is there, all distortion and manipulative. This books is just another example where conclusion comes before analysis. He picks up data or facts whatever fits his conclusion. There is no totality. He is unhappy about America and instead of constructive analysis, he goes out to find scapegoats - the liberals. Does that make him (or other scapegoat finders) happy? Does that make America better? I doubt. That's why he becomes more and more angry everyday.
There is nothing new in this book. He writes the same thing normally he repeats loudly again and again in his show. Anything wrong in America - blame it to Clinton and other liberals.
Right wing idea - always good and cannot be wrong (just blind).
Rich people pay more tax (he forgets mention that he is not taking about proportion).
