Hannity and liberal to be named later, named

It seems America's favorite well adjusted, honest truthteller, Sean Hannity, has settled on the new format for his show. If you recall, a few months ago Sean announced that he had given away Alan Colmes to a nice old couple on a big farm upstate, where he'd have lots of room to roam and run and be a socialist. As we all know, Colmes was put to sleep on a cold veterinary floor and then incinerated with a pile of tabby cats and an old dalmatian. Now instead of one co-host Hannity will moderate a perverse coterie of panel guests.
The new Alan Colmes-less Hannity premieres Monday with frequent Fox News guest Al Sharpton filling the liberal seat on Sean Hannity's newly christened "Great American Panel."

Rep. Michelle Bachman (R-Minn.) will fill the seat on the right. The X-factor on the panel: Meatloaf.
...
Hannity will employ a rotating panel in lieu of a permanent ideological counterpoint. The show will also bow a few new elements including the Hate Hannity Hotline featuring highlights from Hannity haters.
Al Sharpton, the crazy lady from Minnesota, and Meatloaf? It's like someone read my mind. I was hoping it was just going to devolve into Hannity reading briefs from an alternate reality where Bush was a great President and was handing off the keys to a Palin administration. Now he's just going to bring the same crazy he brought every night, except he's going to do it in tandem with a fellow nut and expose his madness to a different democrat and a early-eighties celebrity every night in some sort of experiment to see if insanity can be transmitted by proximity.

The Hannity Fun Time Hour debuts on Monday. No word on the hotline number, but we'll pot it up as soon as we get it. Stop leaving the heavy breathing, explicit messages to the answering machine of the elderly pensioner two doors down, give Hannity the pleasure of your deviant phone activity.
