It looks like Sean Hannity is paling around with an individual who is currently under investagation by the FBI in a milti billion dollar fraud scheme. Allen Stanford and two of his top executives were served with legal papers and Stanford's assets were seized by the government in a "Bernie Madoff" type investment scheme.
Not only is Hannity tied to Stanford, he is a pitchman for Stanford's Coin & Bullion Corp. Hannity has encouraged his radio listeners to invest money in Stanford's business and it is not know how many people may have invested and then been defrauded due to Sean Hannity's endorsement of Stanford's organization.
The investigation is ongoing and certainly the American people need to know the full extent of the connection between Hannity and Stanford and what Hannity's involvement, if any, might be in the fraudulent activity.
This will undoubetedly have a major effect on Hannity's radio show and could potentially have a negative effect on the Fox News Channel and Hannity's America which airs on Fox. I have spoken to many people who feel that Hannity should be suspended from broadcasting on television and radio pending further investigation.
It is not known if Stanford will continue to be a major sponsor of Hannity's radio show, but nobody more than Sean Hannity should know that he needs to distance himself from Stanford and Stanford's business' as swiftly as Obama did from Rev. Wright and Wright's Unity Church of Christ.

John King Pitches Softballs To McCain On The Stimulus
John McCain tries his level best to look concerned for the plight of the average American while he bemoans that gosh, golly gee, the stimulus bill just wasn't bipartisan. That is why, of course, despite his home state of Arizona nearly topping the lists of foreclosures for the country, McCain couldn't bring himself to support the stimulus bill. But what makes his plaintive wailings all that much more amusing is that McCain actually whines about the....wait for it...tax cuts, that he admits have not worked in the past. You know, those tax cuts added to gain bipartisan support?
They weren't bipartisan, according to Grumpy McSame.
But the point is, this bill was not bipartisan. It was -- it is incredibly expensive. It has hundreds of billions of dollars in projects which will not yield in jobs. Now, if you think we need to improve education, spend money for it, fine. But this was supposed to be a package that was going to create jobs. A lot of this package will not create jobs. A lot of the tax cuts we've tried before of just giving people some money, it hasn't changed the way that savings have been conducted by Americans. So I'm not happy--and most of us aren’t-- at the lack of true bipartisanship in approaching this legislation.
Are you kidding me? The utter hypocrisy is mind-blowing...and yet, McCain has the audacity to sit there with a look of deep regret and sincerity on his face as he spews complete tripe. But host John King is not about to let McCain feel alone in his regret, so he launches what has to be the biggest softball concern troll framing I've heard this morning:
KING: Let's go to the process a little bit more. It’s a thousand pages. It’s eight pounds. We had it fedexed out to us. We’re contributing to the economy just having it shipped out here. Some of the changes were literally hand-scribbled on the side of the page. This happens all the time, unfortunately…
McCAIN: It’s the old business as usual…
KING: Well, if it’s the old business as usual, didn’t President Obama promise a new way of doing things in Washington? You say it was a terrible start. Are you sitting in your office these days saying, "I told you so"?
This from the man who warned Obama about being too liberal.
