F , but rather these dinguses:
I am confused;
Peel the onion a little further, and we recall that both Hannity and Perry are far-right conservatives. But not just any far-right conservatives. These two far-right conservative middle-aged white men comport themselves as hard-line ideologues, pandering to the very worst, most ignorant and intolerant instincts of the Republican base. I write "comport themselves as ideologues" because it's unclear whether either is sincere in his worldview beyond what it can achieve in terms of personal wealth and prestige. I don't think I'm the only one to notice how both Perry and Hannity never seem entirely sincere or authentic -- neither seems to particularly care much beyond careerism, higher office and ratings, and so they'll say and do whatever is necessary
Are they 'far right conservatives' or 'neither seems to particularly care much beyond careerism, higher office and ratings'.
You can be one or the other. You can't be both. I, for one, have never considered either 'far right'. Not even close. I have, however, long considered Hannity the latter. Every time I watch his show, I don't see a football, I see a pom pom, tossed about by a cheerleader who is far more concerned with his hair than the game. We all watched Perry on the national scene with the debates. Repeatedly. He's no ideologue either. Unless it is, like Hannity, like his appearance.
I think they're Republicans, especially as we've come to understand the term but, not right wing, let alone far.
