I don’t see how O’Reilly ever got a show. If there was anyone that actually make me feel some pity for Barney Frank, it was seeing O’Reilly shreik like a crazy man. That Dick Morris smackdown was awesome.

About time those two got some plain talk. Taken to the woodshed finally. They’ve been allowed to get away with their BS for far too long. Maybe this will be a wake-up call to them.

P.S. Another clip that should be added here: Sean’s smackdown of that witchy blonde congresscritter from Florida.

He kept asking her straight questions and she kept saying she would only answer “relevant” questions. She is usually vicious, but Sean had a choke collar on her tonight!

I laughed when a few moments later Lieberman complemented/consoled Colmes by telling Colmes that he had a heart.

He should have invested more wisely. He had too many eggs in Fannie’s basket, it sounds like. That’s the undercurrent there I was trying to pinpoint - he lost some money and he’s pissed. He’s always crazy but he seemed so over the top on that segment that something else was going on.

What Alan did wrong was not engage what Dick Morris brought to the table to talk about. Morris wasn’t there to fact-check the points made by either side or any of that crappola. And he, as well as viewers, just finally have to go ballistic in saying, “Let the man say what you had him on to say!”

There is nothing more boring that hearing Alan (or Sean for that matter) recite their respective talking points over and over to each guest. But it’s especially pathetic when the guest actually has something else interesting to say!

Yes. I don’t think Alan quite got it. Poor Alan.

But Sean wouldn’t be Sean without Alan, so we can’t let Alan get too down in the dumps over this.

I loved it! I can take Hannity in small doses, but Colmes makes me ill.

I still think of Morris as the sort of guy who hung out around the girls dressing room in 8th grade, but I am beginning to respect some of his judgments.

I was surprised by how annoyed Morris sounds--seems like he's been waiting to tell off frogfaced Colmes for a long time.

Colmes is like the smug kid who tries to show up someone and is just so proud of himself, and then looks shocked when someone slaps him down, and starts looking around for help from those he hoped would be on his side. He's one of the truly annoying presences on TV, and Morris puts his finger on why--Colmes just smugly spouts his morning DNC fax, all proud that HE is on the DNC morning fax list!

What a slimy little lugworm.

My impression was that Morris was bursting with praise he wanted to lavish on Palin, and he wanted to be the first to say she was the new Ronald Reagan, and than Colmes (1) interrupted his solioguy, and (2) interrupted him to start babbling from his DNC talking points about whether 142,000 troops was close enough to 135,000 troops to make it “not true” that Iraq is at pre-surge levels. Etc.

You don’t interrupt a man like Morris who thinks he has something historic to say.

I listen to Sean’s radio show about once every three months for three minutes and feel like I never missed a beat-—not even a bathroom break!

To me, Sean is like “starter talk radio.”

That said, I’m glad-—very glad!-—he’s on the scene. He does his part and every bit helps.

I disagree. Colmes is as replaceable as Kathie Lee was as Regis Philbin's partner.

He said he had gotten a lot of really terrible stories from listeners, too. I think he was after Bawney for ALL of us! All he was trying to do is get Frank to admit to his part in the failure of Fannie/Freddie, but Frank couldn't even find enough courage to do that.

I did really love it though when Frank objected to O’Reilly telling him to “be a man”! My hubby and I laughed until we cried!

BTW, could you BELIEVE how ignorant she was of the distribution of tax revenue flows?

Even when Sean told her, she had no clue as to the implications of the facts she was learning for the first time.

Talk about “deer in the headlights” looks. I can only hope this shuts her vicious yammering up for a while.

Barney Frank would be an embarassment if he weren't considered an "institution" like Kennedy and Byrd and the rest of those useless tools in Congress.

You'd think this collapse would expose some of these people, but Clinton and W. have brought us the "no fault" presidencies--while I like some of what W. has done and almost nothing Clinton did, I loathe that both of them have erased the idea of resignation as a powerful tool in governance. Clinton didn't resign when he corrupted the presidency, and Bush has this robotic idea of "loyalty" that he got from his father, even though most of the people he's kept on don't deserve loyalty. After 9-11 there should have been firings all around, but if THAT wasn't a situation that got people fired, nothing will.

I caught the show a few times when a lib with some actual talent and personality was filling in for Alan-—and Sean looked pretty small.

Also the show became way too serious (and series). Hannity and Colmes are the perfect political popcorn couple.
