Rating:  Summary: Spectacular truth telling Review: Sean Hannity is a wonderful conservative voice in the lion's den of talk radio and public journalism. He follows up on his descriptions of the leaders of the new Democrats (Tom Daschle being a golden example) with reference after reference to prominent newspapers and the Congressional Record. Of course, this book will be interpreted an "attack" to those on the liberal left, who will no doubt attempt to vilify him and those who agree with him. However, Sean does not use any derogatory terms or say anything untrue and unverified about the Democrats he discusses. Yet as Sean points out, liberals use derogatory terms to describe conservatives, and lie outright about what conservatives value. This book is a must read for anyone who has realized the strength and insidious nature of today's left wing activists.
Rating:  Summary: freedom's truths Review: No wonder liberals hate this book! It finally shows exactly what liberals are doing to this country. The aouthor makes no statements of hate for anyone, but the liberals would have you believe it is. Excellent book.
Rating:  Summary: Hannity Deserves Medal of Freedom Review: I have not read a more concise entreaty on the dangers and falacies of liberalism than I did in "Let Freedom Ring". It unveils the hypcorisy of the liberal agenda in this nation and paints them in their true light as a major threat to our republic. Sean Hannity deserves the Medal of Freedom. I pray that even liberals will read this book and become enlightened to the harm liberalism is doing to our young and to the future of the shining lights of freedom and democracy...
Rating:  Summary: Beware a man that wraps himself in a flag of patriotism. Review: The book is a graphic demonstration of what hypocrisy is. In the Nietzche paradigm of Good/Bad and Good/Evil, this would be an example of a "Good" man (in the sense of Good/Bad) irreconcilably trying to pass himself off as "Good" (in the sense of Good/Evil). If you want to understand what is going on here with this book read "On the Genealogy of Morals, A Polemic" by Nietzche. Such hateful diatribes as "Let Freedom Ring" should only be read with appropriate understanding of their true context. Such a book like this would be laughable if only some people didn't take its ideas so seriously.
Rating:  Summary: The big lie: social class doesn't matter Review: Probably the two primary lies in this book are 1) rising tides lift all boats and 2) Republicans care about people from all social classes.
Rating:  Summary: Yet another "war" for conservatives to "fight" and "win" Review: Why is everything about war with the conservative right? Does this concern anyone? As 21st century humans, when will we realize we can't fight our way to solutions through perpetual warring? Has history really taught us nothing? This book is very disappointing. While there is some truth here, it requires a healthy dose of discernment to uncover. Albert Einstein was right when he said that a problem cannot be solved on its own level. Solutions require us to examine root causes and be honest about our country's domestic and foreign policy mistakes. Without this approach, we're just picking dandelions. The root stays and the problem springs up again later. Liberal left, conservative right...it doesn't matter. The truth is in the middle. God bless Planet Earth!
Rating:  Summary: Nothing short of laughable. Review: If I could make one recommendation to Mr. Hannity, I would suggest that he use a dictionary to look up the word "liberty". This man represents the exact polar opposite of true personal freedom and social progress. This book is little more than a poorly-composed right-wing wash of exaggerations sustained by a terminally stupid post 9-11 mentality that the current administration can do no wrong. As is often the case with books such as these, we are presented with what plenty of complaints about what the author sees as "wrong" (i.e. anything unrelated to conservatism), but we are offered no well-reasoned contrary arguments or possible solutions to the meaningless partisan quarrels that have kept America mired in the dark ages of modern politics for decades. Hannity released this book to capitalize on current popular opinions; no more, no less. I only recommend this book if you enjoy having your intelligence insulted.
Rating:  Summary: Let Character Leadership Education Ring Review: Hi! I just wanted to say, though a little biased himself, Sean Hannity seems to be honest, and seems to be trying to tell it like it is. He's much like Michael Moore, but on the opposite side of the same coin, and not as funny, or outrageous. This is a book that everyone who has read Michael Moore's, "Stupid White Men", should read. And, maybe it's just my small "i" independent thinking, but I really do think both sides ought to get their values back into perspective -- re-institute the standard -- by reading Norman Thomas Remick's metaphore of what it means to be an American, "West Point: Character Leadership Education, A Book Developed From The Readings And Writings Of Thomas Jefferson". Thank you.
Rating:  Summary: Simpletons lap up this [stuff] Review: There is something truly Orwellian about this moronic rant of a book--it should be subtitled Peace through War. Hannity is nothing more than a loudmouth opportunist trying to cash in on the buying power of the Limbaugh Lemmings. While Bush diminishes our civil liberties, Hannity attacks "unpatriotic Liberals" who dare to disagree with this illegitimate chimp of a president. Guess what Chickenhawk Sean, a lot of liberals have died for this nation's freedom, to protect the very liberties you profess to believe in. You and your ilk weaken this great nation.
Rating:  Summary: Republicans/Democrats are AMERICANS first! Review: It's nice to read that "liberals are not necessarily bad people". Wow, that will win over sceptics from the "wrong side of Congress". What big surprises are readers expecting to hear about, coming from clearly partisan commentators and politicians? Will they ever admit to their own wrongs, or just keep going with the "attack first" policies of their idealism? I share at least one of Sean Hannity's views (in reverse). Concervatives are not necessarily bad people, they're just not good for America. We have seen and felt the proof with 4 of the past 5 Republican administrations. I find only do-nothing President Ford faultless in the otherwise extremely unethical and uncaring Republican President's known, hidden and denied dealings. Anyone still denying that Clinton did more for the American people than ANY president since Roosevelt needs a reality check! I vote for the best candidate. I've voted for Republicans and Democrats alike. I want someone who works for the people, not someone who represents a political party. Somehow I end up voting for more Democrats. Why? Because they have more canditates who seem genuinely concerned in the welfare and harmony of the American people. Being educated and artuculate adds to a candidate's attractiveness. Money and a "wise ol' daddy" matter far less. It's also high time to take "morals" down a few notches from the list of important things, and ethics up a few! Anyone from influential polititians to the common man/woman on the street is to be judged by MORE than simply what political party they affiliate themselves with. A DEMOCRAT or REPUBLICAN is an AMERICAN first. There are good ones and there are bad ones - they certainly are NOT divided into the 2 sub-groups by virtue of their political persuasion.
