Alan Colmes dead at 66....
Quote:Alan Colmes, the radio and television host and commentator best known as the amiable liberal foil to the hard-right Sean Hannity on the Fox News Channel, has died...
Fox spokeswoman Dana Klinghoffer confirmed his death Thursday. Fox also aired a tribute to Colmes, narrated by Hannity, and a statement from his family saying that he died Thursday morning after “a brief illness.”

I knew there was one acting as the counter to Hannity but I didn't even know his name. It was obvious that he just acted as an alibi for fair and balanced. Anyway, RIP.

As Senator Franken used put it, it was HANNITY and colmes. Hannity would do all the talking on the show, and Colmes would lick out his arse for being such an egotistical maniac good thinker.

Shame that death's coming so early in this day and age, in America of all places. Well, I hope he finds his way to whatever god he worshiped, or whatever peaceful empty void he was dying to see.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Looks like Fox News', "Bulls and Bears" host, Brenda Buttner, also passed away Monday. She died of cancer...just saw that on the news this evening. She was 55.

Wish Alan had been more the loudmouth ... it's asking a lot of one Dem to counter the culture at that network.

Wish he was still alive and Hannity was dead.

Actually... I wish Hannity was dead regardless.

Colmes a Liberal voice Bwahahah the guy had his nose so far up Hannity's butt it was hard to know were one ended and the other began .When fox gets a REAL Liberal commutator who will actually defend Liberal positions not just mindlessly foil for conservatives on the network. Then they can call themselves balanced .
Anyway RIP Mr Colmes
That was sort of my point, yeah ... hence the "more of a loudmouth" comment.
