Fox News recently announced that its token liberal Alan Colmes will be quitting Hannity & Colmes at the end of the year, after twelve years playing the foil to the far more aggressive Sean Hannity.

Comedy Central's Jon Stewart professed to be broken up over the news, saying, "It has been no easy task being the sole liberal voice on the Fox Network. But through all the tough times, Alan Colmes always had one thing to lean on -- the respect he earned from his colleagues."

Stewart played a clip of Karl Rove telling Colmes, "Please, you're just embarrassing yourself," followed by other Fox figures insulting, belittling, or merely pestering the hapless Colmes.

Stewart then brought on legendary rock duo Hall & Oates to perform a musical tribute to Colmes, to the tune of their 1976 hit, "She's Gone."

Anytime you need a token liberal
Nothin' but a body to fill a chair
The barest shadow of a person
Alan Colmes is always there.

All those years of non-existence
Can really, really run a person down.
Now he's leaving Hannity forever
Alan, please don't go!
You're the only non-douchebag on that show.

By Friday morning, Colmes himself had posted a clip of the performance on his blog, under the heading, "Hall and Oates Reunite On My Behalf, And, Uh, Thanks?"

Liberal, conservative, it

Liberal, conservative, it does not matter anymore. It is simply a formality.

Look at the things they argue about. Are they real issues? Of course not, they are petty, insignificant issues. They agree on more than they disagree.

The old libertarian term "statist" covers them all pretty accurately.

Hey McCain-----┌П┐(◣_◢)┌П┐

I could be wrong

but an article I read when this news first came out said Colmes was going to have his own show on Fox. ( I can't believe he could work so long with Hannity---seems fishy to me ). Can't wait to read about who replaces him-yes, I said read about because that show ticked me off and I couldn't watch it--Thank God for youtube! ).

Fox News IS liberal...

The owner of Fox entertainment, WSJ and the Dow Jones, (Rupert Murdoch) was a big Hillary Clinton supporter. He donated a large sum of money to Clinton's campaign through a PAC group. Every single anchor/shill who gets their paycheck from murdoch does his bidding. Judge Andrew Napolitano is a contributor to fox and he is the only one there who speaks his own mind and tells the truth.

The liberal/conservative axiom is a sham. The better terminology for fox news is collectivists/corporatists.

Disagree

Murdoch gave to Hillary because he thought she would win, that's why she got most of her money. Remember, twas Fox News that called Florida for Bush.

You fucking kidding me?

You fucking kidding me?

yep

.

That was a great song

So, What went wrong? Never liked Colmes much, but never disliked him much either. Best pictures of him I have ever seen with this.

oh it's funny as hell too !
