Monday, November 12th | |
Apparently, unbeknownst to the American public, on November 1st, the Iranians fired at an unarmed American drone flying in international waters. The incident was not made public until two days after the election. Critics of the president have claimed Obama deliberately withheld any announcement of the attack until after the election to avoid exposing the failure of his foreign policy. Additionally, the USDA delayed its release nine days past the semi-official deadline, far past the election, and until Friday night to report August food-stamp data. One glance at the number reveals why: at 47.1 million, this was not only a new all time record, but the monthly increase of 420,947 from July was the biggest monthly increase in one year. And now, according to NewsMax.com it appears the White House, with concurrence by the FBI and Justice Department, held off on asking for Petraeus' resignation until after the election. His resignation occurred three days after the election, avoi ding the possibility that Obama's ill-fated appointment of Petraeus could become an issue in the election. "There is a lot of this stuff coming out now...a ton of it!" Sean said kicking off Monday's show. The President's 'Grand Bet' Pays Off Karl Rove joined Sean in the show's final hour to defend and explain his positions and intense reactions on Fox during the coverage of the polls on election night. Rove explained that the president's team ran a focused, disciplined ground game to identify all Obama supporters from 2008, hold them in line, and turn them out this year. While the president appears to have converted very few supporters of Sen. John McCain, he did get at least 92% of the votes he received in 2008. America's shifting demographics - fewer whites, more young people and minorities - were just enough for the president. Mr. Obama was ruthlessly efficient in executing what his campaign manager, Jim Messina, told the New Yorker's Ryan Lizza was "a grand bet" - an early negative campaign that started in May and targeted Mr. Romney's character, business ethics and wealth. A massive volunteer army armed with these same arguments then worked in the fall to convince family, neighbors and friends to support Mr . Obama. This strategy required money, lots of it. Team Obama convinced the president to attend a record-shattering 220 fundraising events over 20 months, with the campaign and Democratic National Committee raising around $900 million.

| Newt On What's Next For The GOP Last week's election results has made Newt Gingrich and many long time Republicans wonder what exactly the future holds for the GOP. Newt, who joined Sean via the NewsMaker Hotline, believes that much of the problem with the party lies in the the establishment. We need more brave Republicans to take the lead and stand up to those who feel they should control our ability to make our own decisions. Newt also believes that demographics are changing across the country and that many people have been mislead to believe that Republican values clash with their own. However, many of the values held by the Latin American and Asian communities, i.e. faith based and family centered values, are directly in line with the Republican message. Listen to Sean's entire radio conversation with Newt Gingrich here. Today's "Hot Topic" From The Hannity Forums: Quick question for my Liberal friends on the forum - RajunCajun I was having a discussion outside during lunch with a guy and we were talking about the fact that folks making a certain amount and higher were going to have their tax rates increased. We went back and forth on this for a while and he couldn't answer my question so I figured I would get a sensible reply here. >> TV Tonight (Hannity FoxNews at 9pm ET): Petraeus scandal continues to unravel in Washington.
