That seems to be one of Alans fairly new techniques, talk over your guest so no one can hear them knowing full well he's the one in the wrong. I've just about had it with H&C>
Right now Scarborough is on opposite H&C and since the management changes made at MSNBC Joe is back to having half way decent shows and I just switch over to him when Colmes starts this stuff. I have no use for the man.
In all fairness almost every personality does this with the most notabl exception being Brit Hume. He is fast becoming the only one I can tolerate watching.
