“Oh dear” is right.
As Twitchy told you, earlier today, Politico’s Marc Caputo reported that a Rubio “staffer” went off on Sean Hannity, calling him a “f*cking a**hole” and a “p*ssy.”
Well, now Hannity is firing back. But not at the staffer … at Caputo.
Hey Marc,@marcorubio is now pawn for establishment. Sad to me. That's not man I knew. https://t.co/bCn2UL8wc0

Glad Politico let's u use such big words that accurately describes yourself asshole. And u r "impartial" to politics https://t.co/bCn2UL8wc0
— Sean Hannity (@seanhannity) March 2, 2016
That escalated quickly.
@seanhannity What the hell? Are you directing this at the reporter or at his source?
— Brian Cates (@drawandstrike) March 2, 2016
@seanhannity He was quoting a Rubio staffer. Are you lost? lol
— Andrew Schwartz (@AndrewRSchwartz) March 2, 2016
@seanhannity @MarcACaputo you know he's quoting a staffer right? I don't think he's the one calling you that.

WOW. @seanhannity has gone TOTALLY off the rails. Why attack the messenger? someone screenshot this https://t.co/tEzQWxm7ae
— #IAmNotStephenKBanno (@SimonTemplarPV) March 2, 2016

— David Harsanyi (@davidharsanyi) March 2, 2016
Why is @seanhannity pissed at @MarcACaputo? https://t.co/WVftRIHjb3
— Greg Pollowitz (@GPollowitz) March 2, 2016
Fair question. But one thing’s for sure: Sean is most definitely pissed.
Typical lib media, u missed my point. I always liked the REAL @marcorubio NOT THE GUY I SAW LAST NIGHT! https://t.co/BETSWuiZ49

Yikes.
Whooooo boy https://t.co/Xo8zd8vzLr
— Matthew (@Matthops82) March 2, 2016
It’s certainly something.
Hannity’s got the support of some fans:
@seanhannity @MarcACaputo Hey, Sean, don't let the haters get you down. You have tons of fans and supporters, including me.
— Paul O'Brien (@paul_L_obrien) March 2, 2016
@seanhannity @MarcACaputo give it to the haters Sean

@seanhannity When they run out of facts, they have nothing else but attacks.
Thank you for your courage!— Absolutely_Trump (@Patriotic_Me) March 2, 2016
But other people are, shall we say, less sympathetic:
Hey Sean, where was the equal time for Rubio on your television show? You really sold-out for the the #ConMan https://t.co/GLjKzgX0zZ
— MaxR.S (@Randy_Shannon) March 2, 2016
Hey @SeanHannity. Remind me: who’s the candidate who said he would “cut deals” with Schumer and Pelosi? https://t.co/fB0ts3hngG

You're a clown who worships at the feet of a progressive after building a career on "I'm not Repub, Im conservative" https://t.co/NHBgHjXRBO

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo And Sean Hannity lecturing others on being partial? That's OH SO RICH coming from a Trump mega shill.

You made millions while helping a liberal conman defraud conservatives and destroy our party. You should be ashamed. https://t.co/zRIBoVXTD3

Imagine how much @SeanHannity would love Marco Rubio if he praised Planned Parenthood and proposed Socialized Healthcare. #GoConservatives

Hilarious coming from the guy who is in love with Trump. https://t.co/jMfLL779gk

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo Sorry but I will no longer watch your show. Your bias toward Trump is staggering.

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo Sean sounded a lot like his candidate. If you criticize him, you receive a personal attack.
— Mark Phillips (@phillips4hand) March 2, 2016
I don't know about his candidate, but I'm certain Sean is all talk, all hat and no cattle https://t.co/8b1cGGB1S4
— Marc Caputo (@MarcACaputo) March 2, 2016
Not that he needs (or wants) me to say this but @MarcACaputo is one of the few unbiased pros left in political journalism.

Actually, it's nice to hear amid the hate and craziness. Thank you https://t.co/6OIpwfNdQY

@seanhannity @MarcACaputo Hey Marc, clean your language up! Marco should fire you! Maybe he could get "The Donald" to do it for him!
