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In my career at Wizbang, I have unpublished exactly one article (not counting duplicates and other actual errors), and that was it was in incredibly poor taste.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.

Liberal men are real classy in telling women to get rid of unwanted babies. So much so liberal women have forgotten why God made them women in the first place!

All I can say is just let them keep talking. Every time they open their mouths they seem to be losing votes. This line of attack will backfire for sure. Most Americans, that being everyone except the moonbats over at Kos and the move on crowd, are repulsed by it.

Try leaving here and going to Digg. Not much class at all. The top stories there are atrocious.

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

That's why I don't watch the show --I don't see why he needs a left wing co host to attract viewers

Should I post a thread about Celtic Music to sooth your hurt feelings?

Colmes should be fired from Fox over this.

Rush just won his bet with Mr. Snerdly! In case you missed it, Rush bet Snerdly that the left would attack Palin for her Down’s Syndrome baby. Snerdly thought that was too low even for a Democrat. Snerdly was wrong.

“Back when I was a kid, life was going swell.
Till something happened, blew every thing to hell.
That night my daddy stumbled in, all pale and weak,
Said “A woman up the block just gave birth to a geek.”

Mom said, “Sell it to the circus, what the heck.”
Dad said, “Nope, this one’s a pencil neck.
And if there’s one thing lower than a side show freak,
It’s a grit eatin’, scum suckin’, pencil neck geek.”

You see if you take a pencil that won’t hold lead,
Looks like a pipe cleaner atached to a head,
Add a buggy whip body with a brain that leaks,
You got yourself a grit eatin’, pencil neck geek.

(chorus)
Pencil neck geek, grit eatin’ freak,
scum suckin’, pea head with a lousy physique.
He’s a one man, no gut, loosing streak.
Nothin’ but a pencil neck geek. “
(Thanks to Freddie Blassie)

I agree with you. The Internet is “flat” in that anyone with an opinion can and does publish; furthermore, young and inexperienced users mistake “being published” with “being true”. Thus, if it's said often enough, a story takes on a life of its own, be it urban legend or Big Lie. Colmes was counting on this. It is a despicable act. My wife is furious over it.

“liberals” are vermin. I may even go so far as to equate them to locusts.
