Randomly Noted I've upset Fox News host Alan Colmes
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Wed, Feb 13, 2008 at 7:39 PM
Twice in recent days, I've left comments on Peach Pundit comparing the blog's loudest "liberal" contributor to Fox News' "liberal" personality Alan Colmes. Both are ineffectual foils whose tone and personalities discredit liberal viewpoints in front of largely conservative audiences.
Alan Colmes apparently reads Peach Pundit because last night he e-mailed me twice.
In the first e-mail, he asked me how often I watch Fox's "Hannity & Colmes" or listen to his radio show. I replied that I don't listen to his radio show, but I do watch "Hannity & Colmes" frequently, not regularly.
A second e-mail from Colmes arrived minutes after he was on-air speaking to Karl Rove. It said simply:
If you were more familiar with my work you probably would have written more favorably.

Huh. Maybe if Mr. Colmes spent less time reading Peach Pundit and more time researching, writing and rehearsing solid talking points, he wouldn\\\'t constantly look like Hannity\\\'s dartboard. That show is painful for liberals to watch.
Alan Colmes is to liberal pundits as a certain veteran AJC editorial columnist is to conservatives.
Wake up people. Colmes is not a real liberal; he's a ghoulish plant, used by the Faux machine to make liberals look like clowns. Think about it, he reinforces every negative stereoptype about liberals down to the stuttering speech. He's married to a neo-con and once tried his hand at stand up comedy. Don't be surprised if his liberal act is just a failed attempt at political satire.
