"Once they get a hold of the crazy things he's said and done like taking his two-hour old baby who died right after childbirth home and played with it for a couple of hours so his other children would know that the child was real," Democratic commentator Alan Colmes said on FOX News today. "That's a cheap shot, Alan. To say it's crazy, something that's that personal and hurtful as losing a child and to mock it like that is beyond the pale and beneath you," Colmes' conservative opponent Rich Lowry said after the personal attack. I even think some of the dastardly characters we have in the main stream media are not going to go as low as you just have Alan, National Review editor Rick Lowry said later in the conversation.

As expected, the beat down on Santorum has begun.
“There, they spent several hours kissing and cuddling Gabriel with his three siblings, ages 6, 4 and 1 1/2. They took photos, sang lullabies in his ear and held a private Mass.”
has turned into “played with it”.
I thought kids were off limits, Alan?....I guess dead kids are fair game, eh?
Commentators have disappeared from the airwaves for saying far less.
Im pretty darn sure 90% of the people in America WILL think thats crazy.
Do you/we know that was the case or was the event taken out of context and embellished by the MSM as they are wont to do?
Im pretty darn sure 90% of the people in America WILL think thats crazy.
Back in the 1990s Colmes said on his radio show, “A worm has more of a right to life than a human fetus”. I heard it.
My God. These people have no souls.
Colmes has no idea what the Santorum family did when they took Gabriel’s body home. Cuddling and rocking a dead baby is not “playng” with the child. It was a way of acknowledging Gabriel’s life, however brief, and of loving him after waiting for him for so long.
Colmes is a despicable mouth frothing idiot.
I knew Alan was a liberal, but I didn’t know he was evil.
Well, there’s a man who has the face he deserves.
Anyone who has seen the film “Gone with the Wind” remembers the terrible scene where Scarlett goes into the parlor to see her mother laid out. Thankfully, I grew up with the balls (you should pardon the expression) to look at death squarely in the face. When my father died 3 years ago, I tucked a love letter into his pocket in the funeral parlor. There is NOTHING to fear from the dead.
“Im pretty darn sure 90% of the people in America WILL think thats crazy.”
Yep.
And it’s the type of thing that will form the “whispered” narrative is he was the nominee. Urban legends of what other out of the ordinary things they do over at his house.
Allan is a fraud. He was criticized for not being tough on Hannity & Colmes, but he was just making a lot of money doing that show. He knew that if he said the things he says now on Fox News that Hannity would destroy him, and he wanted conservatives to like him. Colmes tried to act like he condemned liberals and conservatives on Hannity and Colmes, who said outrageous things, but he’s a fruad. I remember he also said he was friendly with Rush on H & C, but he’s attacked Rush since leaving H & C.
***What the hell is that?***
As the title says...”Electroplating the dead.”
There are lots of things that went on in the past that we don’t know about! Ever hear how Evita sat at dinner with Peron, for years after she had died?
Colmes also said the reason Trig was born with DS was because Sarah held off giving birth after her water broke.
The guy is a stupid ass, and my aplogies to asses.
We don’t live in that world anymore, but Santorum ought to kick Colmes’ butt for such an evil insensitive and twisted remark about a dead son.
I was talking to my grandmother about this the other day and she reminded me of my great grandmother’s story about her parents doing the same. Seems that it was once quite common especially in the days when most children were born in the home.
My great grandmothers sister died when she was 3 years old and her parents brought her all the way home from Ann Arbor to northern Michigan.
Alan is a disgrace to Fox. I turn O’Reilly off when that smug conceited sonofabitch comes on. If that POS is on any other time I turn it off too.
First, did that really happen?
“...PLAYED WITH IT for a couple of hours so his other children would know that the child was real.”
I don’t believe it.
If not true, then Colmes should have his POLITICAL balls cutoff...
My wife miscarried with our third child during the third month of her pregnancy, we went to the hospital and carried the three month old fetus to the hospital in a plastic container so they could determine what was the cause of the miscarriage.
Colmes is, to use the liberals’ ultimates insult, an latent homosexual.
