Okay, so I'm actually listening to colmes on the radio

Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 12:05 AM by RatTerrier

First time I've ever gotten up the courage to do so.

And I'm thinking, 'you know, he really isn't that bad. He's actually somewhat entertaining.' Seems to be showing somewhat of a spine. Handling freeper callers well.

So why the hell is he such a wussy rag doll on Hannity's show, Asshat and Doormat?

Is he for real (somewhat) or is his radio show pure bullshit?

(EDIT to undercase alan colmes' name. Seems fitting.)

1. He is a joke...

Who cares if his radio show is good, he helps out the conservative cause by making Dems look weak on Hannity and Colmes. If he was truly on our side, he would never have agreed to his show in the first place.

No one listens to his radio show anyway.

3. I agree

if he really had the good of the values of the Democratic party in mind, he wouldn't look like a pantywaist on that stupid FUX show all the time.

6. I wonder...

...how the hell can he take himself seriously when he acts like such a wimp around a lightweight like Insannity?

12. He's never been accused of beating wemon

If you want to know what the people who don't like him think, follow this link

Most of the lyrics people complain about is strictly tongue in cheek stuff. However, his song Kim is extremely brutal. I find it hard to listen to, as it's basically him murdering his wife in front of his child as she begs him for mercy.

10. come to think of it...

... this is probably the first time I've ever seen a thread about colmes' radio show.

Seems like even the most obscure liberal radio host has popular threads on DU, but do we ever really see "oh my god, look who colmes has on tonight! its gonna be a great show!" threads?

One of these days, I'm really going to have to call in and have some fun.
