“Wow, that’s too bad. I really believe Alan Colmes served a useful purpose of showing how fundamentally inane Liberals are. He’ll be missed.”
I just read this latest news about Colmes leaving the show and thought the same thing you did. Colmes was a posterchild for the idiocy of liberalism and socialism.
On a side note, he always reminded me of a “dummy”. I don’t mean dummy, as in stupid (although that would apply as well in his case), but as a ventriloquist’s “dummy”. His face and jaw would make a great pattern for a “dummy” and the parroting of the Leftist talking points, makes him a perfect DUmmy.
Good points.
Personally; I would like to see Hannity and Colmes replaced with Dornan/Olbermann...now THAT’S entertainment!

I think there are two things going on here. First, I think Colmes’ wife is pregnant. When she was on the show a few weeks ago, I thought I detected a bulge, even though she was wearing a black dress. I wouldn’t be surprised if this isn’t factoring into his decision. He would have more time available if only doing his radio show and a weekend show on Fox.
Second, I think Colmes was upset because other TV shows (mostly on MSNBC) were constantly ripping into Colmes as being the token liberal on Fox, and what a wimp he was. I think he wants to burnish his lib credentials now that Obama has won, by no longer being the wimp dominated by Hannity on the show. He wants to go solo. Fox will accomodate him in order to burnish their credentials as not being a totally right wing cable TV station. So they will give him the weekend show.
Just guessing.
All sounds logical.
