In the wake of McCain's defeat, Sean Hannity appears to be going through his own personal five stages of death: Anger, Denial, Anger, Denial, and Denial. We'll be checking in on him from time to time to see how he's holding up.

The stage he's in today: Anger. Well, actually, more like "pissy." Well, "pissy and completely divorced from reality." Here are a couple highlights from last night's chat with Mike Huckabee, after the jump...

An "Obama recession?" No, Sean, you can't do that. You can't just put the name of someone you hate in front of a problem and use that as proof that they're to blame. If we could we'd stop telling people we have herpes and start telling people we have "McCain herpes." How do we know McCain caused our herpes? His name's right in front of the word herpes ain't it? The defense rests.

This is a common step in the grieving process. In the griever's mind, the cause of his grief becomes elevated to an all-powerful being, responsible for all of his pain and heartbreak. Hannity's friend, the GOP, is dead, and he blames Barack Obama. So in Sean's mind, if there is something wrong in the world, Obama must be to blame. Whether it be the recession or the fact that he looks like an effeminate Fred Flintstone. It's all Obama's fault.

He should get through this step in about eight years.

As for the "New York Obama Times" comment, that's just baby Sean throwing a quick tantrum. But we gotta admit, it is kind of catchy.
