You Stay Classy, Alan Colmes
Wizbang ^ | August 31, 2008 | Kim Priestap

Posted on 09/01/2008 1:35:56 AM PDT by Delacon

Alan Colmes of Hannity and Colmes wrote a post so inappropriate and offensive the Kos Kiddies would be envious. He accused Governor Palin of not taking enough care of Trig when he was an unborn baby. A man who has no problem with a woman killing her unborn baby through an abortion actually has the nerve to ask if Governor Palin took too great a risk with her pregnancy:

Rogers Cadenhead gives the timeline associated with the birth of her newest child. She had a speech in Dallas and, even after the water broke, continued with her activities, and then boarded a plane for home. She did consult by phone with her doctor.

Still, a Sacramento, Calif., obstetrician who is active in the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, said when a pregnant woman's water breaks, she should go right to the hospital because of the risk of infection. That's true even if the amniotic fluid simply leaks out, said Dr. Laurie Gregg.

In case he takes it down in an effort to hide his idiocy, I captured a screen shot for everyone to see. Click the image to enlarge.

Update By Jay Tea: Yup, as Kim predicted, it's gone down the memory hole. Apparently it was causing some "technical issues" for the site, so it got deleted. Congrats to Kim for having the foresight to get that screen capture. But if some more technically adept person than me can pull up a copy of the article in its entirety, we'll be more than proud to post it here at Wizbang.

In my career at Wizbang, I have unpublished exactly one article (not counting duplicates and other actual errors), and that was it was in incredibly poor taste. I didn't just disappear it, though; I posted another article stating it had been done, why, and apologized for it.

Publishing, then deleting, articles that later prove embarrassing is one of the most cowardly things that can be done in the blogosphere. It's also one of the dumbest, because the internet NEVER FORGETS ANYTHING. It only emphasizes the wrongness of the author who does it. In this case, Colmes gets to add "coward" to the list of epithets that people can toss at him over his initial article.

We don't do that here. It's not just a matter of principle for me, but sheer practicality -- as shown here, it doesn't work. It never works. I learned that when Kos issued his famous "screw them" piece on the American contractors murdered and left displayed in Iraq, then tried to Control-Z his way out of it. Several years later, it's still what he is best known for to a lot of people.

My apologies, Kim, for hijacking your article here. I probably should have made it a separate posting. But once I started, I just started going and going (as is my wont). I'll shut up now.

The left have decided that their new strategic plan is to attack the children of the VP nominee.

Alan must have been thoroughly doped up the day they covered genetics in Middle School health.

Downs syndrome is genetic. The extra chromosome is fixed at conception. Nothing after conceptions can impact it.

Of course the entire left thinks that an unborn baby is just a lump of Play Doh that has no shape or features until it is the process of passing out of the birth canal.

Of course it does have a head at that point or else they wouldn't know where to sink the scissors. Alan has in aces the particular deformity common to most liberals. Rectocranial inversion.

Thinking? We're talking Alan Colmes here - the man is lucky if he has two brain cells close enough together in his skull to fire an impulse across the lone synapse!

To put it another way - the reason Allan's neck is so skinny is that he doesn't have to hold up much weight above his shoulders.

“That was especially bad coming from him. What was he thinking?”

The natural inclination of any pundit to appear reasonable and intelligent was overcome by his innate liberal desire to do anything to get Obama elected.

Maybe, but the low life nature of the shot was not what I expect from him.

I dunno that any liberal is a classy guy.

People who confess to not believing in God do not have the value system it takes to be overly classy.

Alan Colmes has been tweaked to months now that Conservatives have criticized Michelle R. Obama. He feels that it is inappropriate. Attacks against family members ought to be forbidden. But she is campaigning for her husband, making politically charged speeches and statements, thus Conservatives pile on the criticism.

Of course, if Todd Palin said something political and made campaign speeches in place of his wife, the Libs would be all over him with blistering, nasty criticism.

I’m really saddened by all this. I have to get out of here, the freerepublic is going crazy over this, every single thread is Palin this and Palin that, it seems a little sick?

I guess human genetics is above Alan Colmes pay grade.

And to think these types of people think they know when human life begins.

Aren’t they the “experts” on everything scientific from global warming to stem cell research? Aren’t they the same one who are always saying how ignorant Republicans are about science?

Time after time on Hannity I hear Alan parrot the Liberal talking points and it really does not affect his image as a decent person. This does.

I feel sorry for Colmes.
Night after night he has to deal with looking and sounding like an idiot next to Sean Hannity.
He has to defend and promote points that are usually Un-American against Hannity’s points that are very American
It is easy to see how all that could make him finally snap and go all in and a liberal hatemonger.

Really? Has OBAMA, day and night 7 days a week on TV print and airwaves for the past 4 months been okay for you though?
Is Americans having something to feel good about right now a bad thing?

Obviously Alan Colmes was dropped on his head at birth.

I went to his website yesterday, and I agree with you completely.

Alan comes off like a total moron.

Someone else ask Hannity why this no-class, low-class blovicator is part of the same show.

Colmes should hang his head in shame.
