Do you think Fox picked Colmes to make Hannity look good?

They must have. He must get a fat paycheck as well because nobody in their right mind would sit there and take Hannity's abuse every night the way Colmes does.

I don't really know what the deal is,but theres been so many times I expected to see Colmes get up and walk off the show. Maybe one day we'll find out that Colmes killed Hannity in the parking garage one night after the show.

Yes, but just like all of Fox's efforts to create an appearance of "balance," this one failed spectacularly.

Yikes! Balanced? If that's their intention then those folks at Fox have eaten one too many dream cookies.

Does COlmes represent an opposite to Hannity? Is he trying to portray "higher ground" or something/ Or is he just a poor choice?

He always seemed to me to be a punching bag. It’s as if he has a bull’s eye tattooed on his forehead. Maybe that’s why he’s cross eyed?

liar? hu? you know how to read, right? Or is it when you read a post from a xian, you get so excited and anxious to bash the xian, that you skip over what he says? Just wondering.

I said: (quote)
there are two ways for someone to stroke their self-esteem and elevate themselves.


then was asked: "which one are you xian?"

then replied: "neither. i dont seek to elevate myself comparable to others"


SO how is this a third choice? In my belief- "THERE ARE 2 WAYS FOR ONE TO ELEVATE THEMSELVES", and I do not choose to elevate myself. I am consistent. you have not read my posts verly clearly.

I stand corrected. Point taken.

Apparently you haven't either, unless you can satisfactorily explain why the two posts I cited above are not examples of you attempting to "elevate yourself by lowering others".

HANNITY: All right. We've got to take a break. Reverend Al, it's always good to see you. You can't even say one nice thing about a president who led us to victory in 27 days?

SHARPTON: Yes, I can. Good night, Mr. President. I hope you find bin Laden like you promised.
