Allan: Since you seem to be head over heels in love with Osamba and his terrorist friends. Marry him and take your honeymoon in Afganhistan in his family cave.
Also since “redistribution of wealth” is soooooooo great be a man and show America by writing checks from YOUR pocket for 5000 bucks a pc to ever American worker. Oh yeah all the illegals also YOU pay their healthcare THEN I might think about Osamba.


I fully expect you didnt have the guts to read this.
You need Professinal help

Remember how America used to be? Pride, well when I listen to you I wonder what is going to happen to Us???

You and your left Comrades do not want to drill here because Madame Pellosi says she is saving the planet. Well, what planet is the oil that we purchase now, what planet is that from???


It’s OK for them to drill and take our money, you must be on the side of the arabs, oil price is lower now but they will sock it to us again real soon!!! You are an embarrassement. I don’t know how Sean puts up with you or else it is all show business. I am so angry and upset, I am 64 years young and giving up. You and the left and Satan is winning.

Very nice dog. A bit nervous, but to be expected living with you. He would be a perfect replacement for you and much nicer to look at. I am sure his analysis would be much more intelligent. How does the Humane Society allow this cute dog to live with you?

Allan;

There is no hope for your damn dog. She hates you, Period.
It does’nt help the fact that you are a democrat.

Responses to this post...

  1. It is quite obvious that these hate mails are not genuine and are only written to garner attention from Alan.

  2. It’s obvoius these idiots are not in the tax bracket of the top 5% that would “spread the wealth” as the Republicans state so often. They actually do need the tax cut Obama is promising so they can use it for an education. Keep up the good work Alan!

  3. If you’re going to start writing checks to folks can you start with the LLC? Thanks.

    “you and your left comrades…” Oh. We’re a member of Russia now? I was SOOOO not aware of that. I’ve gotta work harder to keep up with the news!

    I’m sorry, but Clyde’s email was actually pretty funny. No text, just the subject.

  4. “Very nice dog. A bit nervous, but to be expected living with you.” Now that part was funny. However, NO OFFENSE to Bonnie… but anyone who’d rather listen to a DOG “talk” vs debating the issues to move humans towards progress… well, that person is… you know… sad.

    As always, Alan’s responses to his “love” mailers was appropriate and oh so funny!

  5. Also, Bonnie is a DUDE. His name just sounds kind of girlish.

    Yeah yeah yeah, call it a liberal thing. But Alan adopted Bonnie when he got married, and his wife and her sister are religious conservatives!

  6. How sweet it is to be loathed by them :)

  7. Fix…I can assure you these letters are real. You can’t make this stuff up.

  8. Jesus, I worry about Barack’s security when these inbreds can get so het up about reasonable old Alan. You can bet the whole frigging lot of them go to bed cuddling a gun.

  9. Alan,

    Ok, be honest with me. You enjoy your hate mail, don’t you?

  11. What’s sad is there’s apparently a 68 year old who has worse grammatical command than my 6 year old daughter.

    You know i was a Dem for 50 yrs and iam voting Rep this year first time in my life but you are such a dumb ass and you must have your head up hussein obama ass so bad that you can1t see how bad the future is going to be if the God gets elected.

    Nice going there lee.

  12. Alan,

    You misconstrued my meaning. Or I was unclear.

    I am not saying they aren’t “real” emails. What I am saying is that the people who write them are just out to get attention from you, and, I believe, in reality, don’t really believe the drivel that spouts from their keyboard.

  13. I wonder why some of these people don’t use spell or grammar check before clicking on “submit comment.” Why would I bother reading their arguments when they can’t be bothered to present them in a grammatically correct manner? The first time I see “your” when “you’re” should be used, I find it difficult to take the comments seriously. In fact, I usually just stop reading.

    You are a wonderfully patient guy, Alan, to put up with all these shenanigans, and this Wyoming liberal appreciates you more and more every day.

  14. Reading the “hate mail” comments scares me to death. Most of these people didn’t seem to have passed the 3rd grade. Yikes!

  15. I used to write for a popular site and, believe me, the vitriol out there is staggering. People just vent to feel better about themselves.

    By the way, Alan, how DESPICABLE of you to question one of Joe The Plumber’s many contradictory statements! That is just so journalistic of you, gosh darnit!

  16. That song hurts, yes. Very, very much so.

  17. Looking at that lead singer’s hair hurts.

  18. To Alan,

    I started reading your website to understand how and why liberals think the way they do. I have to say I am disappointed in your daily topics; I have yet to see you write anything positive or anything to try to bring Americans together. Even today, you start off writing a topic about Veterans Day, but have to end it with controversy. On Hannity and Colmes you give an attitude of common decency looking for the truth. But you show none on this website. You always seem to bash American here; never anything good.

    One many not agree with Hannity and how he responds, but at least he is consistent on the show and on the radio. You are not and therefore not true to yourself or your readers. You must not be very happy.

    Posted by 4patriots

    Actually, it’s the Bush/Cheney administration that is bashing America

  21. Alan, stop posting these so often. These jerks are just trying to get on the internet or the airwaves. Some of these are real down-home hate but if I write you a meaningful e-mail I’m lucky to get a one word response while these people get a whole posting just for them. I know why you do this; illustrate the hatred and ignorance of the many. But consider that people are driven to get more and more attention. Look at Joe the Plumber. He just keeps coming back to do more and more TV and news while he can’t even answer questions about the very issue he claims is a flaw with Obama’s policies. Feeding the beast makes it stronger by the day.

    (Okay, I can’t resist!)
    “what a lowlife , what a vile creep TO TELL THE WORLD ABOUT Joe on welfare.
    WHAT A LOW BLOW,
    COLMES YOU ARE LOWER THAN A SNAKES BELLY
    I CANT TELL YOU HOW MUCH I HATE STUPID COLMES”
    So if Alan asks a valid question of someone claiming to be above government aide and reveals the truth about the matter (aka journalism) then he should be punished. Okay, I’m with you. Let’s go over to the Limbaugh studios and whip his wide behind every time he speaks the “truth about liberals.”
    First Amendment you fricken’ airhead!!! Alan can ask him anything he wants and if Joe doesn’t want to answer he doesn’t have to. Welcome to a free press.

  22. Ha! Love that last one. Even your dog hates ya! Cha!

    Um Cara & WFG, I will NOT have you two impugn the vocal stylings of Nazareth.

    Ah, the memories. “Changing Times,” “Hair of the Dog,” and “Whiskey Drinkin’ Woman.”

    Anybody feel like playin’ quarters? Make three in a row off your nose and you get to make a rule…I get to go first…

  23. OH, the illiteracy!

  24. Looking at that lead singer’s hair hurts.

    Sorry Sarah, but I have to agree with um on this one. That is a bizarre hairstyle; it reminds me of a beaver pelt, or maybe unshorn mutton. At least he never went trans-gender, although in this clip I’m not sure, maybe he did. If I close my eyes though I must admit I actually like the song. Boy, this really takes me back…. Hey Jimmy, do you see the contradiction? He should have been singing rejection hurts. Oops, conversational context again, nevermind. OK, break time’s over, I’ll be around later…

    You guys must be pretty young.

    Looking back on pictures like these are what I call, “What were we thinking?”, moments.

  26. OldLefty -

    It hurt’s because I had the same haircut in highschool ; )

  27. Um Cara,
    YOU said it made you hair hurt… Oh, I guess you knew…Sorry.

    Actually, I go back a little further to where you got brandy new jeans, put them in the bathtub, and splattered bleach on them.

    We thought they looked old and cool, but we really just looked like blue and white cows.

  28. We’re going to have to start referring to you as Shecky Colmes if you keep throwing laugh lines like those postings out for us to enjoy.

    Alan, just keep pitching….they still haven’t found a way to anything out of the park, yet.

  29. Dear Alan

    Loved your look yesterday in your Red tie. The eye glass make you look inteligent.You are good at your job. So is Sean Hannity. Both of you are perfect for your TV job. You both are well prepared. I learned so much from your show. You both have different view to ward our political system. Your show is not biased. It is informative. I do give you lot of credit for puting up with Dick Morris. He hated Hillary Clinton. He used to get on my nerve. Somehow Sean did not. He disliked Hillary and Obama’ policy and charector. He do not hate them.

    You or Sean state a news and then we get two diferent opinion. Both you and Sean discuss one news very differently. When you two agree, I get a heart attack. In Greta’s show she do not express her opinion. She leave it to us to analyze. Bill O’Riely express his opinion and interview different people.

    All four of you in Fox are very different. If the “Fairness docterine pass then the news will become boaring again.
    Fox do not belong to Conservative Republican.They supported Bush as a president and now they are supporting Obama as President wlect.

  30. Is there someone off stage putting their hand up Sean’s back? It often looks as though his mouth moves although the sound seems to be coming from Dick Chaney?
    Does Sean drink? Tonight he said the recession could be due to Obama? Has Sean been on drugs the last month, or just his normal unconscious state??

    Robert, the investment markets are driven by speculation. They are a type of barometer of economic climate barometer. Obama’s tax policies could be very damaging to investors and hence investors will not be adding capital to the market. People buying in is what drives the market up, and people cashing out in large numbers, a “sell off ”is what brings it down. The markets don’t like the incoming Obarometer.

    My biggest problem with Obama, besides his social policies, is his spending plan. The last thing this economy needs is someone driving us further into debt. Think of it like this, you are in personal debt up to your eyeballs, you’re trying to figure out how you’re going to pay your bills, and your wife comes home telling you not to worry, she just got a part time job delivering newspapers, and she’s driving a new Porsche that she just bought on credit.

  32. Obama won based on a deceptive message marketed to the masses.

    The rich and wealthy are to blame.

    I’m going to give you (the masses) what you want, and I’m going to make them (the rich and wealthy) pay for it.

    …………………………….

    When did Obama say that?

    I thought he said we are going to go back to pre Bush when the rich paid their fair share, so that we can pay as we go, instead of maxing out the credit card.

    McCain’s message seemed to be that NOBODY EVER has to pay for ANYTHING, but we will keep spending.
