Fox News buffoon Sean Hannity is so fauxtraged by Governor Cuomo's recent remarks about "extreme conservatives" having "no place in New York" that he's "threatening" to move to some other place where nobody criticizes his fat ass. Appalled by the alarming prospect of a Hannity-free NYC, last night Jon Stewart enlisted show biz star Nathan Lane, Tim Gunn, the cast of Jersey Boys, and several men on the street wearing hoodies to persuade Hannity not to abandon us. It's delightful:

Surely Sean Hannity, everlasting treasure of the Empire State, will be unable to resist the lure of a flashy Broadway chorus number written specifically for him?
