“The Architect” Karl Rove joined Sean in the last hour of Thursday's show to discuss his latest column appearing in today's Wall Street Journal. In Rove's latest commentary he explains that Obama's 2008 pledge not “to pit Red America against Blue America” is no longer operative. Rove explained to Sean that with Santorum's exit on Tuesday, Obama will begin a distortion campaign that will warp beyond recognition any of Romney's arguments. “Obama will impugn the motives of anyone who disagrees with him,” Rove explained. “Mr. Romney will need to tap into the disappointment and regret that many Americans, even the president's supporters, feel about Mr. Obama.” To read Rove's entire column, please click here. Beckel And Varney Square Off In Martin Case Debate Bob Beckel, co-host of the FIVE, and Stuart Varney, host of Varney & Co., joined Sean to discuss the Trayvon Martin case. Varney, having lived in numerous places around the world, shared his experiences and explained how America has one of the most accepting and color blind societies on the planet. “Places like Hong Kong, India and even Europe pale in comparison to the United States,” explained Varney. Beckel completely disagreed and called Varney “naïve.” “We as a nation are completely divided,” Beckel shot back. “We have no real united front and are still a divided nation.” Beckel felt Martin was handed a raw deal and that Florida's “stand your ground” law speaks to a further issue with our second amendment rights.

| What's Next For George Zimmerman? Forty-five days after the fatal shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman was charged with second-degree murder by Florida special prosecutor Angela Corey. Sean invited Fox 35 reporter Shannon Butler, criminal defense Attorney Rebecca Rose Woodland and prosecutor Anna-Sigga Nicolazzi to 'Hannity' to discuss the latest developments. Prosecutor Nicolazzi felt that even though forty-five days might seem like a long time, it might have been in the best interest of the case. "Right now we don't know all the evidence. And if you take a look at this special prosecutor, she was appointed on March 22nd. That's weeks ago and it took her until today to formally file those charges. So, I would say that what it looks like to me is she took her time. If it was just political or public pressure, then why not have this information, these charges out in a few days. We don't know all the evidence." Defense attorney Woodland discussed what possibly strategy the defense team might take. "You are going to have competing forensic experts, but you know, what? Zimmerman has an excuse to second-degree murder in Florida which is sudden combat. If the defense can prove sudden combat then that will absolutely make the jury declare a not guilty." Sudden combat, according to Florida law states that the killing of a human being is excusable, and therefore lawful, if "the killing is committed by accident and misfortune resulting from a sudden combat, if a dangerous weapon is not used and the killing is not done in a cruel or unusual manner."

Today's "Hot Topic" From The Hannity Forums: Flat Tax? - Posted by Unaffiliated Why is an across the board rate with no deductions a political non-starter? I'd love to see a form that asked, how much did you make in income and wealth growth (only the growth, not the principle) in the previous year? Send in X% of that number. Poof! More revenue for our country and less power for our politicians in one fell swoop. &>> TV Tonight (Hannity FoxNews at 9pm ET): Former Alaska governor and mother of 5 Sarah Palin reacts to Rosen-Romney controversy tonight on 'Hannity'. |
