Bob Beckel manages to get Sean Hannity to admit that anyone who claims to be a family values politician and doesn't live up to that ought to resign, but Hannity feigns stupidity on knowing where John Ensign stands on the subject.
BECKEL: Can I just speak to what you did in this segment here for a second?
HANNITY: You can do whatever you want.
BECKEL: You go to this thing with John Ensign, right, about Harry Reid. He's more popular than -- now, this is a guy -- you're a big family values guy. Here's a guy that cheats on his wife, not just with somebody, but somebody on his staff who's married. Now what do you think? Are you defending John Ensign?
HANNITY: That sounds like a liberal Democrat to me.
BECKEL: That was good.
PRAGER: Wait, wait, wait. What does have it to do with...
BECKEL: Excuse me. Excuse me for a second, Mr. University Prager. I want -- I want him to answer this question.
HANNITY: My answer is, if you're going to be a family-values candidate and a family-values politician, and you don't live up to that, I think you should resign.
BECKEL: Well...
HANNITY: I don't know where he stands.
BECKEL: Oh, he's big.
HANNITY: But with that said, it is interesting that Harry, you know, Prince Pelosi, Prince Harry and Princess Pelosi. His ratings are lower than the guy that had an affair.
BECKEL: All I'm saying is let the record show that that you called for John Ensign to resign.
HANNITY: I don't know where he stands on the issues.
