Colmes it’s beyond belief the way you interrupt shouting over them
As they try to speak, only one that is crude, rude, ill mannered, a Slime ball. A dirt bag, you belong and would feel at home at the bottom of a Cess-pool that is used by people with extreme diarrhea

You are an idiot, stupid and uneducated. A perfect description of a clown, with the makeup, the one witchy eyebrow that replaces the large red nose. You express exaggerated actions of a coarse, ill-bred person; a boor, you are disgustingly offensive to the Fox guest, you are loathsome, sickening, nauseous, repulsive, revolting, repugnant, abhorrent and detestable. The very sad part in all of this, is that you are using up our fresh air. The person who you married must be a dog of all dogs. Clean-up your act, take some lessons from Hannity, and be accountable for the air you breathe and for God sakes please don’t clutter up the earth with any of your off-springs.

Sean said you had a rat for a pet. That wasn’t nice, to rats! In fact,
the rats have you for a pet.

Do you know the difference between a Democrat and a catfish? One is a bottom dwelling, scum sucker. The other is a fish.

What branch of the service were you in and when? I doubt you ever served this country. You are the most obstonate impolite person I have ever had the misfortune of hearing. Stop butting in with your snide remarks while someone is speaking. Thank God for my mute button

Does the right to free speech and the right to offer an opinion differ for those who were not in the military? Do you mind that the Vice President was not in the military or that President Bush didn’t show up for his physical when he was in the National Guard? When pro-war conservatives never served do you question their service?

Mr. Colmes,

When anyone comes on Hannity and Colmes with any brains at all, they make you sound like a bungling idiot which your are for sure!

Allen,

Here’s a thought; I know you’d give Obama a Wollinsky on national tv given a chance. We all apprciate the fact you and Barack love each other. Swell! But, when you have guests on your show, especially Republicans, when they are given a chance to make a point, do you think you could shut your cake hole long enough for them to do that?

Obama and I are only still getting to know each other. We’re not at the “Wollinsky” stage yet. And, when that happens, we’ll do it in private.

Subject: Get RID of Colmes ! ! !

Fox News:

Alan Colmes is not just the ‘liberal view’ of Hannity & Colmes, he is a discourteous and illegal advocate for Democratic candidates. He can’t wait to get ‘his turn’, (”its my turn to talk”, “its my turn to talk”….”) to interview the guest(s). Then he gives HIS VIEWS and walks-all-over any guest that disagrees. His ‘fast talk’ to ‘drown-out’ the guest’s views comes across on TV as a garbled MESS. DUMP HIM for a liberal like Kirstin Powers. The show ratings would SOAR, (and Alan will find his “radio” show going down the toilet along with his TV UNemployment). Chuck

Subject: You deserve a raise

Allen,

Go directly into the boss’s office, pound your fists on the desk and DEMAND a raise! Explain to the boss that you appear on Fox News on a daily basis and defend some of he most bizarre, outrageous, undefeatable, and ridiculous points of view imaginable. Then explain that if you’re expected to continue, you want a BIG raise. Tell the boss that you’re simply tired of being exposed as a target for public ridicule

Responses to this post...

  1. 1) What the heck is a “Wollinsky”? Had me laughing thinking about what it COULD be…

    2) I didn’t know that Alan could be an “illegal advocate” for Democrats by interrupting guests on HIS OWN debating show–which Hannity does more often, by the way. I will admit that Kirstin Powers is way cuter than Alan. The truth hurts, I know.

    3) Alan subjects his poor dog to this stuff! Alan, don’t abuse poor Bonnie! Keep him away from political discourse!

  2. Is that the TV remote next to the dog? I let my old dog run the remote sometimes, too. All she wants to watch is Animal Planet. Her favorite shows are the ones with “seals”. I don’t understand that since the nearest seal is thousands of miles away.

    But, who really understands dogs or women?

    “One is a bottom dwelling, scum sucker. The other is a fish.”

    That was a lawyer joke the last time I heard it. It played better as a lawyer joke.

    Hold your friends close and your enemies closer.

  4. A lot of the commentors have to mention god, can’t you just feel the christain love? If you don’t like to listen to someone, turn the damn channel. I don’t listen to Billy Graham or any TV profit for god.

  5. “your purple prose just gives you away”? i always thought they were singing jibberish. i never had ANY IDEA what the hell they were saying. if i’d had a guess, i could call this a mondegreen (look Alan, I’m learning!)

    Okay, the first email is actually really creative.

    Janet’s email, subject line “constructive criticism”- doesn’t sound very “constructive” to me. The irony about her insult to Mrs. Crowley is that your wife is actually pretty hot. Even better, she’s smart to boot. I found the reply to her quite funny.

    I don’t get the whole “illegal advocate for Democrats” remark.

    And what the hell is a ‘Wollinsky’?

  6. Frank said~
    “…TV profit for god.”

    VERY nice play on words, Frank.

    ‘Mouse~ all this time I’ve been blogging with you, I thought you were a woman. Huh. My bad.

  8. Alan you should really stop reading this hate mail, it’s gotta be bad for the soul.

  10. well, your comments have never indicated one way or the other. it’s often hard to tell, based on screen name alone, what sex the commenter is.

    i think i made that assumption bc i used to work with a girl who went by the nickname of mouse. many of your off-beat, cynical, and entertaining comments remind me of her.

  11. i haven’t visited THE ONION in a while. they’ve got some funny headlines:

    MC CAIN VOWS TO WITHDRAW ALL TROOPS FROM THE U.S.

    BILL CLINTON SADLY FOLDS FIRST LADY DRESS BACK INTO BOX

    my favorite is the first.

  12. Your dog rocks.

  13. Frank,
    You would’nt know Christian love if it was in front of you because you don’t listen to God at all. If you can’t give from the heart the Christians would’nt want it anyway you old scrooge.

  14. Alan, you do a great job and you know it. Hannity interupts people on TV constantly (and the producers let him) while you do it from time to time on the radio. All these people you write you hate mail just have no lives. I used to waste time sending e-mails to conservative hosts but it’s just not the best use of time. Better to debate back and forth in these settings than just these hit-and-run hate messages from cowards.

    Your dog is cute. I want a doggie!

  15. I suspect that you have never experienced the demands of serving your country in a combat situation. It is only because of the sacrifice of so many that you have the liberty that allows you to place those who protect your rights of expression in harms way. God forbid, at some, those whom you pander and protect, may be your undoimg.

  17. How is the liberal media to blame for electing Obama when, according to Bill O’Reilly, Fox News has always had 3x the market share of viewers of all majoe “liberal” networks combined? That must mean that Fox News misled all the dumb people who voted for Obama.
