It's almost like an infomercial; Colmes sets Hannity up, and Hannity spews forth his conservative rhetoric dribble, putting down the "balanced" Colmes.
The are a conservative dog-and-pony act; who should be viewed for entertainment purposes only, just like the drugee Rush Limbaugh.
At least Jon Stewart is honest about his politics and his agenda...

Democrats are not being "bashed". Bashing is what democrats have been doing to the president for the last six years or so. You know, calling him a retarded ape and a moron etc.
What you are witnessing on this show is what happens when many of the democratic claims are held up to the light of scrutiny. When you can openly question and examine these beliefs you find that they don't hold up very well. If you have been deceived by your political leaders into believing these things it is rather upsetting.
But you will go through the usual cycle:
Denial, anger, depression, acceptance and finally enlightenment. That is when you become a conservative.
The world is a far better place and life is really worth living when the wool is no longer over your eyes. You find that you are motivated and optimistic about the future.
This is how every American used to feel and how their lives used to be before the disease of socialism infected the democratic party. Liberalism used to stand for something positive. Now it has become a synonym for socialism.
Good luck on your journey through life. I hope you are strong enough to step back and really look at what you are being told. If it does not stand up to the light of scrutiny you need to take stock in your beliefs.

Actually Colmes is the "socialist/communist" I have only ever heard him on the decent side of an issue once or twice in my life. Usually after any comment Colmes makes I have to resist the urge to throw my Sirius radio out the window.

Hannity and Colmes are a good act, like a good-cop bad-cop team of brainwashers. The captive viewers end up believing what they are told to believe, i.e. that everything Republicans say and do is correct and in the best interest of all Americans, and that the Democrats' views are wrong-headed and indefensible.

It's fair and balanced - it represents both sides of the coin. It's not Hannity's fault the left side of the coin is as pathetic as Colmes makes it out to be at his best.

Because "fair and balanced" is nothing but a big lie. Laurel and Hardy on a sea saw is more fair and balanced than Fox News is.

Hannity says he is balanced and Colmes is fair. So the premise of your question is wrong.

It is so funny hearing cons try to defend Fox News. They claim a newspaper and a tv channel (NY Times and CNN) that endorsed Bush in 2000 have a liberal bias - but think Fox is perfectly fair.

Good point! but I think you know the answer to that one. Fox is a Conservative network and Colmes is a Conservative puppet.Its kind of like watching professional wrestling and those who believe its real are retarded!

Fox News is the television equivalent of the Nation Enquirer. Watch it if you want entertainment, don't use it as a source of real news.
