Hannity "District of Corruption" Special: Required Viewing for Intelligent Voters

The liberal media establishment generally remains an arm of the Obama campaign, but whistleblowers like MonCrief and Adams and intrepid investigators like Pavlich, Picket and Webb are sharing the ugly truth that Team Obama tries to conceal and ignore.

Unless preempted, there will be a Hannity Special on Friday, October 5, on the new Judicial Watch blockbuster feature documentary, "The District of Corruption," directed by Stephen K. Bannon, a formidable attack on "the political/media elite" for forsaking principle for the sake of power and profit.

This fact-filled documentary, nearly 70 minutes long, in Judicial Watch's words, "lays bare the lawless and unconstitutional Obama administration and makes the case for more openness, integrity, and honesty in government and leads the way for changing the climate of corruption that has gripped Washington, D.C. for far too long."

May it be so! That's a climate change we desperately need.

Fittingly, conservative multimedia star Sean Hannity uses excerpts from the documentary and interviews with key persons involved in the documentary to do just that.

Voters, pay careful attention.

Judicial Watch asserts that "District of Corruption"

  • Presents a gripping lineup of the gross malfeasance and unparalleled secrecy of our government today. The film exposes Obama administration scandals such as Solyndra, Fast and Furious, Crony Capitalism, Czars, and its politicized Justice Department. This cabal of government insiders comprises an essentially Shadow Government that uses favoritism, regulatory power, and abuse of office to enrich the party faithful at the expense of the general public.

  • Explores the recent history of the abuse of power in Washington during the Bush and Clinton administrations to put the current state of affairs in context. Act I will end as a dog-eared and beaten George W. Bush gives way to a Chicago politician claiming “Transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this Presidency.”

  • Covers more major Obama Scandals. Will briefly consider Obama the “community organizer,” the professor, and the State Senator before delving more deeply into the scandals (such as the Bailouts, White House Visitor Logs, Secrecy, White House Czars, Green Energy, Fast and Furious) that have marked the first four years of his Presidency. Act II ends with an exposé on White House secrecy controversy and sets up the stakes for the next election, specifically focusing on voter and election fraud.

  • Provides an in-depth exploration of the Judicial Watch 2012 Election Integrity Project, the upcoming election, and will answer the questions: What is the meaning of these abuses of power to the rule of law and the future of the United States? And why is Judicial Watch absolutely essential as an advocate for the rule of law and independent watchdog for the people of the United States?
Judicial Watch's battles with both the Clinton and Bush 43 Administrations are reviewed at some length at the start of the documentary. Judicial Watch is a non-partisan opponent of government secrecy founded in 1994, during the Clinton Administration, and its overriding message is that both Democrats and Republicans are loathe to investigate corruption vigorously because both are corrupt and the result would be "mutually assured distruction." Judicial Watch suggests that the major difference between the Bush 43 Administration and the Obama Administration is that the Bush 43 Administration was honest about its secrecy while the Obama administration with its "Chicago gangster mentality" has hypocritically posed as transparent.

Unfortunately, many voters are not interested in studying American political history over the last score of years. They are receptive only to short, sharp, memorable messages. Such messages are delivered as the documentary proceeds, for those with the patience to keep watching.

Hannity realizes that now is the time to scrutinize President Obama, focuses on the immediate problem--the Obama Administration seeking a second term, and highlights those messages for his viewers who may not see the documentary.

Hannity interviews Bannon and Judicial Watch president Tom Fitton for an overview of the documentary, as well as Townhall news editor Katie Pavlich and Washington Times opinion blogger/editor Kerry Picket on the Fast and Furious scandal, former Justice Department career attorney J. Christian Adams and former Federal Election Commsioner Hans von Spakovsky on the Obama Administration's politicization of the United States Justice Department, and radio star David Webb and ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief on ACORN, the radical organization that trained Obama and supported his political career all the way to the , ACORN, Obama's cunning lies about his relationship with it notwithstanding.

The Hannity Special is an illuminating hour at a critical time.

What President Reagan called "pesky facts" can make Obama a one-term president, IF they become generally known.

Tragically, the liberal media establishment generally remains an arm of the Obama campaign.

Fortunately,whistleblowers like MonCrief and Adams and intrepid investigators like Bannon, Fitton, Pavlich, Picket, von Spakovsky and Webb are ready, willing and able to share the ugly truth that Team Obama tries to conceal or ignore and Hannity gave them a great platform to do so.

Mark Twain observed, "A lie can travel halfway round the world while the truth is putting on its shoes."

With Election Day 2012 nearing, there is no time to waste in exposing the lies by broadcasting the truth.
