Forget my request for her e-mail. Decided to complain to Brit directly in the hopes she won't get much air time. Mentioned that I thought the role of panelists is to give their assessment, and that's all we expect. When one begins to use flip flop tactics, or is influenced afterwards by outside sources, I believe their credibility is lost and is someone who adds nothing to their esteemed panel.

Good move writing Brit. Like you, I couldn't believe the change in her comments. It only took her about an hour to change her tune. Is she that stupid that she doesn't think people watch more than just one show on Fox?

I followed your lead and sent the following message to Brit:

Dear Mr. Hume:

I watched the President's speech last night, then watched your post-speech analysis. My TV is usually always tuned in to Fox News, and so my viewing last night continued with Hannity & Colmes and then Greta's show.

Last night I observed contradictory comments from CiCi (sp?) Connelly between her appearance on the panel with you and then on Greta's show. When she was offered to give her opinion on your panel, she was complimentary of the President's presentation, going so far as to say that he should do this type of press conference more often because he is at his best during them. Then, while on Greta's program, she made derogatory comments regarding the President's performance, claiming that he stumbled and didn't even answer some of the questions.

Mr. Hume, the only explanation I can come up with for her flip-flopping is that she felt intimidated by the likes of you, Mort and Fred. Now if she has a problem being honest with the three of you, I don't think she deserves the privilege of sitting at the same table with individuals who are at least honest in their assessments. I have no respect for someone who finds it necessary to change their message to suite the audience they are in front of. Obviously, Ms. Connelly has attended the John Kerry School of Waffling.

How about finding someone who isn't afraid to make opposing comments and then take the heat for what they've said. Even Moira and Juan, who I rarely agree with will sit and take the criticism of their fellow panelists. Ms. Connelly needs to be replaced.

Thanks for your time and for the great work you do.
