Is Alan Colmes a Democrat? Or a Repuke puppy?
He is supposedly the "liberal" who keeps Hannity and Colmes "fair and balanced", but he is really weak. Moreover he makes himself sound like an idiot thereby giving us a bad name. I noticed two weeks ago, he said that he as a Democrat supports tightened Border control and increased enforcement with the Patriot Act. This is a Democratic liberal?

He';s an idiot. I wish a real progressive would give him a little message.

Traitor.

1. Hannity was the one that picked him for that job, to be his "sparring"
partner. He owes his job to hannity so he is supposed to make our side look bad.

8. I am planning to get very soon
Colmes really does need to stand up to that bastard Hannity. I was talking to one of the young wingers and he told me he loved Hannity because he made fun of the liberals :puke: yeah he hates liberals because they are a threat to his fantasy world. I hate Hannity. The day a republican president makes him or his hero Rush "anal cyst" Limbaugh a press secretary is the day I will laugh out of crazyness and cry out of pity for the nation that they would have to deal with one of those fucks daily. I have Franken's first book and I loved it, I am getting great reviews on the second book. Thanks a bunch for the mini review.

4. Colmes
I sent Alan an email telling him to get a little more spine like Donahue, Franken and Bill Press. He emailed back and said Donahue was cancelled, Press lost his prime time slot and Franken was a comedian. I returned an email and said the corporations run the networks and that is why Donahue was cancelled dispite having the highest ratings on MSNBC, Press was moved from early afternoon to a later and better time slot and Franken was a lot more than just a comedian. I got no reply. I guess even I intimidate him!

5. I guess Colmes is just a chickenshit hack...
I wish he'd stop calling himself a liberal because that just gives us a very bad name.

6. Colmes collects a paycheck from FAUX.
This alone should be evidence that he's a sell-out with no credibility.

11. Maybe Colmes will inherit Mort Kondracke's job
over at Faux News. They call him a Democrat, too.

Colmes just married Monica Crowley's sister.

12. For REAL liberal talk radio, listen to Randi Rhodes & Neil Rogers
I gave Alan Colmes the benefit of a doubt, and he is about as useless as a football bat. And his yahoogroup is a complete WASTE OF TIME! It's nothing but right-wing turds posting newsmax cut n pastes. Wow, how liberal! Check my sigfile and enjoy what liberal talk radio SHOULD be! RANDI AND NEIL, who should be syndicated to dozens of radio markets, UNLIKE Colmes who is about as bush-league (pun DEFINITLY intended!) as they come!!!!!!!!

13. Colmes is representative of the deomocratic party right now:
republican lite. He embarrasses me a lot with that fake liberal tag.
Very disappointing. Even when he gets a point in and now and then, he does it with an appologetic whimper. Sometimes he makes me sicker than Hannity. Both of them are morans.

14. He's not a liberal
He's a self professed moderate. He spouts liberal mutterings that he dosn't believe in.

This is the Fox Spectrum, to them the middle is the extreme left.

They routinely refer to the mainstream media as the "liberal Media".

16. They Should Hire Someone Like Bill Press
...who would give Hannity a run for his money. Colmes strikes me as weak, spineless and ineffectual - which is exactly how Fox wants Democrats to be represented. There are so many more forceful advocates out there - Begala, Carville, Press, Mario Cuomo, etc. Take your pick. But that's not what Roger Ailes wants.

17. Colmes was "LIberal to be Announced" when the show was being started
That should tell you something.

We should just call him that ; LTBA

18. Colmes is a 'House Liberal'
He says what the man wants to hear, so they let him work up in the house...
