Fox News Blues: Is it just me, or can we get rid of Colmes already?

Fox News | Wednesday, December 11, 2002 | Yehuda

[Yehuda]

I have just started listening to Sean Hannity on the radio in the afternoons.

Yes, it's a definitely different show, call-ins etc... but how much audience would FNC lose if they just put Hannity on the tube without that moron Colmes?

I just tuned into last night's H&C AM rerun and they were discussing Lott's re losing his gonads, and Colmes is so FOS I switched to a repeat of Bull-riding on OLN (which I watched last week twice...)

Anyone else think the show would be better with just Hannity covering more subjects?

Let Colmes go fill Donawhores bong on whatever channel he's on...

[Nitro]

I agree...

Hannity should slap Colmes every minite!!

[breakem]

Matthews in for Colmes on the left side?

[Yehuda]

Youch...forgot my keywords would get alphabetized! Should have been:

KEYWORDS:

PAGING;ROGER; AILES; TO; CUT; THE; WHINEY; LIBERAL; SUCKUP; MASQUERADING; AS; FAIR; AND; BALANCED.

[ozzymandus]

Colms stinks, which I guess makes it fair and balanced. Did you catch him doing the Lewinsky on Algore?

[Yehuda]

Why do they have to HAVE the left side? Everyone knows that FNC is the alternative to ABCBSNBCAOLCNN! (yeah, now I am listening to Savage as well! LOL!)


(d*mn those bulls are HUGE!)

[Yehuda]

How far thru the segment do I have to sit thru to get to watch THAT?

I mean, I would rather watch cowboy's RIDING bull than listen to Colmes slinging it...

[GaryMontana]

It is good to have Colmes on against Hannity.

Why? it shows how pathetic the left really is! It only adds fuel to the fire and proves that the left/socialists in America today have no moral ground, no thought process, no idea.

[Yehuda]

If you want a ruined morning, check out Ron Kuby and Curtis Sliwa on WABC.

I don't understand how Sliwa doesn't punch out the lw pig on a daily basis.

[Yehuda]

oh, ok....

LOL!

Maybe we can add a Colmes auto-mute filter to my cable box.

[lewislynn]

They can get rid of Colmes and he can take Hannity with him.

[Sonny M]

Colmes actually makes Hannity alot better I think, the one thing I like about Colmes is that he asks questions, gives his leftist point of view, and then gets refuted it. (he doesn't do intentionally, but, I like seeing him get shot down). Colmes seems like somone, who I would like if he was a conservative, he doesn't seem like a bad guy, but Hannity does make mince meat out of him.

[WSGilcrest]

I often wondered if Colmes is masochistically inclined.

[Yehuda]

clue me in? (Not trolling.)

I am starting to buy into the comments above on Colmes making Hannity look more interesting.

[ECM]

I'll second that. Then, at least, the show would be interesting to actually watch.

Does anyone enjoy watching Hannity use Colmes as a punching bag?

I don't even watch it anymore for that very reason.

[MattAMiller]

I've never been impressed by either one of them. I admire Hannity for his rags to riches story, but I'd rather go elsewhere for my political commentary.

[driftless]

The Duers from a recent thread seem to dislike Colmes. To much of a wuss for them. He seems like a pleasant person.

I don't mind seeing both sides debated. If conservatives can't adequately present their views in the arena of ideas, we deserve to be beaten.

[joebuck]

If they are going to keep a liberal on the show I would prefer that they keep Colmes rather than replace him with an intelligent liberal who can get across his point in a convincing manner.

[Bad~Rodeo]

Simply change your TV to SPN..(spanish)when he's on, hilarious and yes Hammer is STILL un-ridden, L~

[Arpege92]

I think Colmes is needed...it's sort of a necessary evil! Colmes is a constand reminder to the public how foolish liberals are and it's also very entertaining to watch Hannity shoot holes through liberal lies!

[Yehuda]

HAMMER!

[copycat]

I like Colmes. He has the same haircut as my friends in high school.

Seriously, when Algore attacked Fox News and said it was a Conservative news channel, Colmes said Fox News just gives a forum to a Conservative message that isn't heard anywhere else. That it's balanced. I think he's got that about right.

Colmes is a lot better than Bill Press or the Forehead.

[Rollee]

Hammer is still unridden!! What about Blueberry and Lil Yellowjacket? PBR doesn't come on too often in the People's Republic of Chicago. I'm behind on my bull news.

[Himyar]

Don't know about Yellow Jacket but the highest score in 2002 was on Blueberry, a 96. He's my favorite.

[Rollee]

I like Blueberry too. He's twisty and interesting. One day I hope to make the PBR finals in Vegas.
