Hannity: ‘The economy is phenomenal.’

THINK PROGRESS

Yesterday on Fox’s Hannity and Colmes, the duo battled over the status of the ailing economy. We should have tax cuts “for the middle class, not for the wealthy,” Colmes said. “How about everybody,” interrupted Hannity. Hannity then proclaimed that he thinks the economy is doing “phenomenal” right now:

COLMES: That doesn’t seem to be helping the economy very much…because things aren’t going so well.

HANNITY: It is, Alan. The economy is phenomenal. Where have you been living?

“Let’s you and I go at it for the next 45 minutes,” Colmes replied. “God help us,” retorted Hannity.
