This guy...
I'm sorry, but I just found Alan Colmes just unbearably nasty. It's not just the liberal point of view, I can watch and listen to Kirsten Powers and Mara Liason and while I rarely agree with them, at least they have civility.

The Rolex is the kiss of death. Mike Francesa bought Chris “Mad Dog” Russo a Rolex for Christmas last year.
(They are sports talk show hosts here in the DPRNY/NJ and they are now separated)
Who?
This guy...

alan gave me a headache, i had to quit watching.
I can take nasty. I can't take unbearably liberal .
I hope “Hannity” will be better than “Hannity’s America”.
I hate Alan, because he defends the most anti-American liberal policies for, what I suspect, are purely political reasons— but will miss him because at least it was entertaining.
I will miss him more if “Hannity” is as boring, or only slightly less boring than “Hannity’s America” or that Oliver North show which, I mean, I would rather watch Megyn Kelly defend atheists on O’Reilly than that.
Your right he is one nasty human being. I don’t think I realize how much of a scumbag Alan was till the whole Duke Lacrosse happened. I know it was his gig to be the lefty and sometimes defend the indefensible. But at some point you have to draw a line. That line is clearly innocent people who have never once did anything political in their young lives. Night after night he put them through hell while defended a lying whore, dirty cops and crocked DA. He did that for far to long for me to ever be able to excuse. I just hope one day he gets falsely accused of something and gets his name dragged through the mud.
I'm glad to see him go, like you machogirl he gave me many a headache from screaming at my TV set.
Ditto. I am also glad to see Alan off the show. He is rude and condecending to those with whom he disagrees. Hannity can be as well in a different way..he hammers for the answer. Alan just gets snotty.
Off set that may be a whole different thing between these two men who are friends. But other than that I can’t stand Alan. I agree Kristin is a much better counterpoint person.
The Cryptkeeper of liberals will not be missed. Hopefully Hannity will be better than Hannity’s America though...
You have to be kidding. He received the same treatment as Geraldo “The Fake”, change channel. Again, please tell me that you are joking on this issue.
Colmes destroyed whatever respect I had for him as a foil to Hannity when Colmes re-published the demamation of Mrs. Palin’s family that had been created a short time earlier on Daily Kos.
I thought he had integrity, but was just misguided. He showed himself to be evil. Good riddance.
Where is the barf alert? Colmes was always for the bad guys.
I couldn’t stand to watch either of them.
Agreed...I don’t think the man has had an original thought in his lifetime.
Is this a joke?
Ultimately, he is a liberal and they are dangerous to freedom and liberty. It is their ideas that are dangerous and destructive, it is not that they as people can’t be delightful and close friends.
I’m not saying that I feel they should be silenced because what they represent (social decay, loss of liberty, government intrusion etc.) needs exposure so a free and informed people can reject those ideas in favor of freedom and liberty. I just feel that fawning over them as if their ideas are equally valorous is counter-productive.
If Hannity needs to have a partner to represent the liberal position, then Colmes was just the creepy guy to represent those creepy ideas.
All seriousness aside, I too appreciated the show most of the time because it showed, consistently, the flaws in liberalism and the value of conservatism.
I’ll not miss Alan Colmes. Either he believes the stuff he has been spouting, or he has just been playing a role.
Not exactly a dynamic personality but strikes me as a nice man.
I thought it was a joke as well.
Colmes is a rude, condescending, obnoxious, whiney, stupid, classless, flaming liberal. He proves beyond a shadow of dout that liberalism is a mental disorder. It defies rational thought.
It was obvious from last night’s show that Hannity has more decency in one finger than Colmes. Colmes displayed his contempt for Hannity right to the end. Hannity said some truly kind and respectful things to Colmes and Colmes obviously felt he should say something along the same line back to Hannity, but couldn’t even pull it off.
I will be glad I can stop yelling at my television - it took a lot of verbal abuse because of that nasty ferret.
K - I feel better. Now on with the day.
