Colmes might’ve still had his job had he not sucked at it. When he was sincere, his arguments were lame. When he knew deep down that Hannity’s or the conservative viewpoint was correct, his counterpoints were disingenuous.
Colmes show prep was faxed to him by the DNC. He would sit there and read his talking points off the fax. All he was is a Parrot for the Marxist Party USA. Hannity was right to get rid of him. His point of view is not legit.
Colmes problem is the same problem as every liberal talking head. They are forced to parrot the liberal line even when they know its completely idiotic and laughable.
Colmes fortunately did break with the left over Bubba’s apology and called it effectively a joke and lash out. Far too often though he would parrot whatever the lib line of the day was even when it was obvious he didn’t believe it himself.
Jaun Williams suffers from the same thing, when he’s honest about where he stands whether you agree with his point or not doesn’t matter, but far too often he makes arguements that are simply talking points from the left that you know watching him deliver them he doesn’t believe.
