Mr Blue (Colmes) Goes Deaf when he Sees Red

the issue, in either event, is not intolerance but rather insolubility--that is, there is no middle ground, no compromise possible on most CultureWar issues. author's message

The red/blue divide is not 100% valid. Some of Bush's greatest gains were in states that went for big for Gore but gave smaller margins to Kerry.

Alan Colmes....the screaming skull of dying liberalism.

Alan Colmes, still upset about the election? We can help you.

[bannie]

I don't watch Hannity and Colmes anymore. I love Hannity; but colmes is just embarrassing. Sometimes I tune in by old habit, but as soon as colmes opens his whiney, wimpy, looser mouth, I click as quickly as I can.

I find it ironic that one of the reason's these hyper-liberals give for secession is because the "blue state" have all of the wealth and the "red state" have all of the welfare recipeints. They then go on to say it isn't fair that that is so, so they should secede to keep their own money in the "blue states".

I thought it was the hyper-liberals like Hilary that espouse income redistibution. Hillary even gave a speech telling some wealthy San Francisco people that that is what will happen "when" Kerry is elected.

So why are they complaining about it now.

Rush even said today that the largest "blue state" city OWES the people of the "red states" --- I think the payout for 9/11 was in the double digit billions and that isn't counting all of the memorial funds that we red-states sent in 2001.

I am in PA and I ain't blue

It ain't BLUE STATES it is BLUE BIG CITIES

[expatpat]

It should be done on a county basis, not on a state basis. Most states have blue cities and the rest of the state is red. For example, places like the Eastern Shore of Maryland and the UP of Michigan would secede from their states if secession became a real issue.

I saw on Hardass tonight that Joe Trippi said that they owe it to the bloggers that keep the conspiracy theory alive that Kerry won Ohio, to keep on counting. He said that we need to find out if the Ohio count was correct so that "we don't have to go another 4 years not sure if the President actually won." He then said it was the MEDIAS responsiblity to push for all votes to get counted correctly.

You say you are from PA-- do you know if all of the military votes have gotten back and been counted in PA?
Do you know if there were any military votes not counted in Ohio?

[Paperdoll]

ROTFLOL....No cable, no Hannity-Colmes and the "yellover show". Much better for the blood pressure, thank Heaven.
Colmes proves his shortcomings, like those of his party cohorts, brings out instant blind hysteria. What a hoot!

[Political Junkie Too]

Expulsion isn't the answer, and fleeing to Canada is to flee to the wrong place.

What should happen is this: "Bluees" should move to Mexico and establish their form of government there.

Mexico is the perfect destination for many reasons:

• The weather is more suitable to their lifestyle.
• The government is easily corruptable, allowing almost any kind of government to emerge (image what all of Soros' money could have bought in Mexico instead of the USA?).
• It is filled with all the kinds of people that they want to help. It is the perfect laboratory for all of their social experiments.
• It has abundant natural resources, including oil. If they play their cards right, they might even one day take over OPEC.
• The people are hard-working, but need guidance. A nanny-state would thrive there.

I'm sure that there are many more reasons why Mexico would make a better choice than Canada for Blue State emmigration. It's a win-win situation.

The secession is a Swiftian idea. But many of us have addressed various aspects of the Blue / Red division. See below,

I'm from PA too - the votes are not all counted yet, because a judge did require that overseas (military) voters have till the 17th to get their ballots in (postmarked by election day I believe) since the ballots went out late due to legal challenges. They will be though...

[eeriegeno]

IMHO, of course, Mr Colmes is a pimple on the ass of life!!

Just to crumble his cookies some more, hasn't it been a wonderful November? And we are less than half way through!

Kerry fell!

Falluja fell!

Arafart fell!

Scotty fell!

Hope the second half is half as nice as the first!!

[Txsleuth]

I bet half of the "blue citiers" have Mexican maids anyway. I remember some conspiracy theorists on this website at one time were wondering if Kerry and Teraaaaaza's "hired help" at all of their mansions, were legal anyway.

Also, I bet they spend a lot of their money in Cancun and the Baja peninsula anyway.

The cost of living is supposed to be a lot lower there, than Los Angeles or New York.

I have just listed mucho reasons to back up your idea to have them move south.

[ozzymandus]

I cannot understand why people on FR keep saying Colmes is "a nice guy". He's a nasty POS.

[Txsleuth]

THis is probably a stupid question, but do you know how many votes Kerry won by in PA?

I guess it would be too much to ask that it would be close enough that the military votes would put Bush over the top?

[Sonar5]

Colmes is pond scum like the rest of the ultra liberal progressive extremist socialists running around whining...

Living in California, I would say give them the counties they won. They can keep all their crime as well. We'll get all the resources anyway. but they can't have my section of California. we voted Conservative big time. The Inland Empire is safe from the nutjobs for now, anyway.

Does anyone listen to Colmes?
