Fox New Channel's conservative megaphone Sean Hannity has had it up to here with Barack Obama, the president's "like-minded miscreants," and even talk of a third party filled with
For proof, just look at his new book,
Conservative Victory: Defeating Obama's Radical Agenda.
Destined to become another New York Timesbestseller for Hannity, the 248-page paperback--no pictures--is his latest call for
It's his belief that Obama is a radical who is surrounded by radicals, and that is the meat of the book. One chapter is even called " Obama the Socialist."
But it's Chapter Two, "Obama's New Radical Friends," that we're focusing on because of the controversies over the president's czars and liberal friends from the past. For Hannity, they amount to a most-wanted poster of Obama picks.
"The truth about him and his inner circle is stranger than fiction," pens Hannity. "He couldn't be more of a Manchurian candidate if he were auditioning for a role in the movie. This stuff is just too bizarre for most Americans to process: An actual Marxist in the

She's another senior adviser from Chicago and a longtime Obama friend. But Hannity sees her role as Obama's ears and eyes as being a "conduit for far-leftists."

He was the short-term green czar. He left after it was revealed that he used a dirty phrase to refer to Republicans and that he signed a petition in 2004 calling for a probe into whether the government allowed 9/11 to happen.
9. Kevin Jennings.
The "safe schools czar." Hannity accuses the gay aide of trying to introduce homosexual themes into schools and abandoning religion.

An Obama faith-based and neighborhood partnership aide. Knox got into a controversy when he criticized a comment by the pope about condom use and AIDS.
11. Carol Browner.
She was a Clinton-Gore environmental aide who Obama picked as the global warming czar. Hannity calls her a radical on the issue.

Concludes Hannity in the new book:
"With Obama, nothing is a coincidence. He knows precisely what he's doing and where he's going, and he doesn't intend to allow anything, including the unequivocal opposition of an overwhelming majority of the American people, to get in his way."
