He tried to hide it after the fact, but Alan Colmes posted a really slimy attack piece on his blog about Sarah Palin: Alan Colmes Heads Into the Sewer.

Thanks for publishing this Charles. This despicable allegation that Sarah Palin is herself to blame for little Trig's Down's Syndrome is a direct slap in the face to every parent of every disabled child in America.

If Fox wants to continue to appear to be fair and balanced - not to mention keep their viewership, then Alan Colme should be fired forthwith.

It shows alot about Colmes character that he deleted it and doesn't have the balls to stand by a post he wrote.

Posted this on the last thread....more appropriate here:

I find the whole rant about Palin did during the "birthing" of her last child incredulous.

Hope she tells all of them that it was "her choice". Until it was born, she could kill it according to them and it shouldn't raise an eyebrow. Why anyone with a 13 year old pregnant daughter doesn't even have to know about any of it...it is the "girls" choice.

You can't talk about prenatal care...why she could have aborted it after it was born according to Obama. If Obama is right on everything, why is Colmes questioning it? The dems will be angry at him for not getting with the program...

I particularly enjoyed this "measured" comment:

Yet, the same outraged protectors of our values have no trouble questioning Obama’s judgment: a nodding acquaintance with someone in his neighborhood, his choice of a church, his very faith, and then they blamed that on the Clintons).

This is...egregiously dumb. Ayers was not a nodding acquaintance, that's absolutely clear. His choice of a church should be questioned!

And he's accusing Hot Air of having been rabid about the birth certificate nonsense? What?

Colmes is an idiot.

68 USA  Sun, Aug 31, 2008 2:20:32pm

I'm not defending Colmes .. in fact I pointed this out in an earlier thread. But I am not sure he tied Palin's travel to Trig's Downs' Syndrome. He did, however, question her judgment in traveling. The supreme irony of Colmes' position is that for Democrats, whatever women do with their bodies is the woman's "choice" and nobody's business -- unless the woman is a Republican. Had she chosen to miss her flight and have the "fetus" scraped from her uterus Colmes, presumably, would have been pleased with her "choice" and no judgment issue would have arisen. But getting on a plane after speaking with her doctor to travel home to deliver the baby! That calls into question her "judgment." If all this is truly relevant, I suppose Dr. Colmes will be asking for the release of prominent women Democrats' OB/GYN records so he pour over them and enlighten us with his views on the judgment reflected by their decisions.

69 Gaye Kukkin-Offenyam  Sun, Aug 31, 2008 2:20:50pm

When Colmes was born, the doctor slapped his mother. The guy's such a flaccid debater and a mental midget, he perfectly represents most left-wing "thinkers". I've seen him get torn a new one and exposed as an intellectual fraud more than once on H&C, and he just sits there with that grin/grimace (can't tell which sometimes) and tries to change the subject. Look up "flyweight" in the dictionary, and Colmes appears right next to Obama.

Is this seriously the best they can come up with to attack Gov. Palin? They can't go after her positions? Maybe they find her position to be too difficult to refute, so they have to attack her mothering. I think if alan and his ilk want to continue to pursue this, they are going to find it will majorly backfire on them. They're going to not only piss off hard working mothers, but mothers of special needs children. Hope you're prepared for blowback, alan.

You know, Down's Syndrome kids don't require all that much extra care. They may be a little clumsy or a little slow, but they are also in general very sweet and loving.

re: #74 buzzsawmonkey

It appears that Colmes is questioning "the judgment" of someone who chose to give birth to a Down's Syndrome child.

It is my imagination, or is this perilously close to an endorsement of eugenics and infanticide? At the very least, it suggests that there is a wing of the "universal federal healthcare" movement that would gladly endorse forced termination of pregnancies which the universal healthcare provider has determined are less than worthy--a slipper slope indeed.

It is not your imagination. It is not perilously close. It IS an endorsement of eugenics. The comments to the new page are full of "she shouldn't have been so foolish as to have a baby at 44".

I thought this was a brilliant pick from the start, and have been a fan of Sarah Palin after her appearance on Glenn Beck. And, I was surprised by the good judgment shown by Sen. McCain. But, the story just keeps get better and better. The Left are now stepping over themselves with amazing regularity. The more research I do into her background, the more satisfied with this selection I become, and the greater my opinion of Sen. McCain's judgment becomes. His measured response to the RNC, in the wake of Hurricane Gustav, gives him the appearance of presidential leadership, especially in stark contrast to the coronation of the anointed one.

Check out the DKOSOPEDIA entry on Colmes.

Not only do the KOSlings hate him, but they have some sort of bizarre fascination with his Judaism:

Alan Colmes
From dKosopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

Alan Colmes is the suspiciously weak and ineffective "liberal" foil to Sean Hannity on Fox News. Before he was hired by Fox News, the open spot he filled was labeled as "LTBD" or "Liberal To Be Determined." Worse than a milquetoast, Colmes serves as the liberal Stepin Fetchit for Fox. He is a figure almost masochistic in his willingness to give ground in arguments to conservative guests by providing strawman arguments. It is also highly suspicious that Fauxnews picked a Secular Jew to fill the role of a liberal.

Colmes also hosts a late night radio program The Alan Colmes Show.

re: #108 Dianna

I did rather flinch at "Willow", I admit.

Little known fact, apparently:
(I learned this on a train trip from Denali to Anchorage by the tour guide. The reason she brought it up is because we were passing through Willow, and there were "no tresrepping" signs for a mile before the town along the tracks. The guide was from Willow.)
Several years ago, a referendum came up about moving Alaska's capital from Juneau, because it's only accessible by boat and air.

After much debate, Alaskans officially voted the new capital to be Willow.

Officially, apparently, WILLOW -- that's actually the capital of Alaska.
BUT, when everybody figured out how much it would cost to physically move everything, the state didn't actually do anything. Would have involved, possibly, a tax (four letter word in Alaska).

All her (Sarah Palin's) other children appear to have names of actual towns in Alaska. Most of those names, of course, also mean something cool in one of the "indigenous" tongues there.

The guide also said a lot of money was made and lost speculating on real estate near Willow, and that was probably why all the "Keep Out" signs were there.

At any rate, it's a cool trivia thing, and good for a beer bet.

We have freedom of speech. Colmes, however, is not just a private individual expressing his personal opinion. He is primarily a reporter. Many of the allegations that he has made against Palin and her family are outright libel. Not just a distortion of fact - libel. Lies about things he could easily have checked, put permanently into the public record in writing.

He has also discriminated against Governor Palin. I can't think of no other case in the entire United States of America during my lifetime when a sitting Governor or Congressperson at any level has been taken to task for her reproductive choices.

So the blog post in this topic talks about how the offending page on Colmes's blog has been taken down. I did copy what I thought was the important paragraph and past it into last night's Overnight Thread:

As the Alaskan media reported, Palin was attending an energy conference in Texas on April 18 when her water broke four weeks before her due date. After this happened, Palin didn't head to a hospital or even leave the conference, even though the premature rupture of fetal membranes is normally a cause for an immediate examination by an obstetrician, who will observe the fetus on a monitor to guard against infection and other life-threatening complications. Two other reasons for heightened concern were Palin's age, 43, and the fact that prenatal testing indicated the child had Down syndrome.

Irony of the abortion issue.....Barry's mother was a first semester freshman in college when she became impregnated. She was a liberal socialist. In 2008, that probably would mean abortion.

Today, BHO is the most pro-abortion person in congress. He is to the left of NARAL. Should he be alive? Meaning really, his mother would have disposed of him if things were then, like they are today.

Just let people like Colmes keep talking. Every word of hate and sexism that spews from their mouths only goes to prove what I've known for a long,long time: liberals love women only as long as they can use them to gain power for themselves. The true nature of how the Democrats feel about women should be clear for all women to see now,first with Hillary,and now with Sarah Palin.

There was also this post earlier (which pales in compaison to his malicous and/or ignorant Down's Syndrome speculation) on Skeletor's blog where he and some pathetic sympathetic use the 'Family Values' straw man for implying that Palin's oldest child might've been concieved before she got married.

You know....conservatives/right-wingers like us are always going on about 'Family Values'. Isn't LGF a Family Values blog?

Let's say for the sake of argument that Palin's first child WAS conceived before she got married. (Not that its anyone's business. . .not that it really makes any difference to her credentials to be VP anyway).

So what?

Didn't she then do the honorable thing by marrying the baby's father and staying with him for the next 18 years?

What the alternative here, that she should have raised it as a single parent or aborted it? This is just a stupid line of criticism.

His new found concern for the health of the infant presumes that he is knowledgeable about the thought processes of governor Palin and her husband as well as those she consulted .

re: #225 buzzsawmonkey

Here's where all this is coming from, people: the Left is all about lopping off, pruning back. Don't get more oil, even if we can, domestically; cut back on cars and don't heat your houses. Don't build power plants with available technology; learn to live with scarcity and compel people under threat of legal sanction to buy the "right" light bulbs. Etc.

This lopping off and pruning back also underlies the leftist endorsement of abortion. Don't take responsibility for your sexual activity, or the consequences of it; lop off, prune back, get rid of the pregnancy. The broad endorsement of abortion is of a piece with the other artificially induced and managed scarcities that are part of the left-wing mindset and platform. And, of course, the remaining few children which are the result of this managed scarcity are extra precious and extra spoiled, as anyone who has ever encountered Feral Yuppie Moms can attest.

Sarah Palin personifies a repudiation of this managed scarcity at every level; she is not against drilling, she is not against currently available energy technologies--and she is not willing to buy into the managed scarcity of children either.

It is her living rebuke to the managed scarcity of leftism that lies at the heart of the current frenzy of dislike.

Yep, I call it "taxing and tailoring"... what behavior they can't tax they try to tailor through legistative means. The behavior they hate most is usually capitalistic.

Sometimes, but not always by a long shot.

Down's children can have problems with the organs that are developing when the face is forming in the womb (a few months prenatal age); notably the stomach/intestines, and heart - but these can be fixed far more easily these days. In past generations, the kids were often kept at home and out of school, so their less exercised hearts and the brain growth potential owing to the early plasticity of the growing brain were both adversely affected. That's when the myth of their profound backwardness arose.

Not every Down's child has serious challenges with intellect either. They DO have to work harder than people without DS to achieve what comes more easily to us, but so do the blind and deaf. They can and do attend college level classes, many in therapy have learnt to speak and read several languages in early childhood - they are very bright kids, and I was honored to be a foster parent to DS children.

Frankly, the best strategy for Democrats right now is just ignore her. Any perceived unfair attacks on her and her kids will be gold for John McCain.

- Obama's surrogates making fun of small towns

- the what-a-woman-does-with-her-body crowd suddenly question a Governor's decisions about what to do with her body

- unsubstantiated rumours from Kos about the child being her daughters

- allegations from Andrew Sullivan that she named her kids after witches

Thank you alan colmes, I knew someone would step up to the plate for McCain's new vice presidential candidate. You have single-handedly been the best advertisement for the Republican party so far. While I have no doubt that other buffoons will inadvertently promote the cause of sanity in the United States, your contribution is greatly appreciated, but I do feel that is only because The Daily Kos does not have the exposure and acceptance of your venue. While their efforts exceed yours, you have the greater recognition, and so to you go the accolades. Again, thank you for exposing the left as total barbarians, and for furthering Governor Palins' campaign. You deserve more....much, much more, and I hope one day that you will receive your full reward. Again; many, many thanks. I am looking forward to the next flotsam that washes forth from your venom-soaked ego.

re: #180 cliffster

So the blog post in this topic talks about how the offending page on Colmes's blog has been taken down. I did copy what I thought was the important paragraph and past it into last night's Overnight Thread:

You know, unless she went to a doctor in Texas to confirm that her water did indeed break, that whole paragraph could be completely wrong. Sometimes its obvious, and sometimes it is not. Palin herself may not have really known. I'd like to see the source for their information- because all of that information is completely confidential and it's against the law for medical staff to say anything. Think the family did? Unlikely. So Colmes may be basing his entire premise on something that isn't even true.

A majority of Alaskans of all parties like Sarah Palin. That's why she
won the Governor's election by such a wide margin. We believe in her
and trust her. Many here had previously voiced the opinion that one day
she could be U.S. President. This new Republican ticket will give Obama
a run for his money.

Oh, and she's a hunter (read guns) and a fisherman, and loves the outdoors. But I can assure you that one of the BIG problems the left has with her is that she didn't have an abortion, either with her child with downs, or with her possible (per Alan Colmes) pre-wedding pregancy. She did the right thing in both cases, and with a 20 year marriage and 5 beautiful kids she is the epitome of a strong, Republican woman. Hey Left...to us family values means doing the right thing when faced with stuff that life just throws your way, rather than taking the easy, immoral way out. Guess what leftards?

The Democrats are definitely worried about Governor Palin.

Some of them were already framing the 2008 Election as a test to see whether America is racist or not (as if the only possible way that Americans could reject Obama and his far-left socialist agenda would be on the basis of skin color.)

Now, they're feeling the need to confront the suitability of women for public service.

Senator Barbara Boxer characterized Condi Rice as being unsuitable for her foreign policy influence because she has no children.

Now some are describing Governor Palin as unsuitable for the position of Vice President because she has five children.

How long before the Dems decide that PMS could potentially start a world war?

re: #68 USA

I'm not defending Colmes .. in fact I pointed this out in an earlier thread. But I am not sure he tied Palin's travel to Trig's Downs' Syndrome. He did, however, question her judgment in traveling. The supreme irony of Colmes' position is that for Democrats, whatever women do with their bodies is the woman's "choice" and nobody's business -- unless the woman is a Republican. Had she chosen to miss her flight and have the "fetus" scraped from her uterus Colmes, presumably, would have been pleased with her "choice" and no judgment issue would have arisen. But getting on a plane after speaking with her doctor to travel home to deliver the baby! That calls into question her "judgment." If all this is truly relevant, I suppose Dr. Colmes will be asking for the release of prominent women Democrats' OB/GYN records so he pour over them and enlighten us with his views on the judgment reflected by their decisions.

Bingo.

But, of course, he's not looking for a real issue, he just wants to twist it around to make Palin look bad.

BTW, I bet that doctor has patients a lot further away from a hospital than Sarah Palin in an airplane at 30,000 feet over the lower 48!

The attacks coming from Alaska against her are most likely to emanate from that camp... Lisa Murkowski and Lydia Green have the long knives out for her still.

I'm not Alaskan, but I appreciate it. She's now become one of my heros for it. She's an inspiration, not only to women, but to anyone who was ever told they couldn't run for office without kowtowing to the special interests.

Wow. Reading the cached comments at Google is striking. No wonder Colmes has buried the evidence. Yet another liberal grasping for any available straw. Of course, now that it's been pointed out what he said, and that he tried to hide it, he's now trying to blame everyone else, another standard tactic. And, of course, the coup de gras, the old liberal tradition of lying about what your criticizers have said in order to discredit them. The left wing debate trifecta, pretend you didn't say what you said, blame your actions on others, lie about others. Is Colmes trying to set up a run for office?

It's just disgusting the way they've dragged the Palin kids into their filth. I don't even know how you imagine the revolting things their saying. On the right, the only time the Obama kids are mentioned is to note how cute they are.

Incidentally, if they want to play the shotgun wedding card, let's look at some facts. Obama was born in August, 1961. His parents were married the previous February. That's only six months. Oh, and the marriage was invalid because Barack Sr. was already married in Kenya. Why don't they bring that up? Because all they care about is "hypocrisy," right? I say it's because, while conservatives have ideals they don't always live up to, being imperfect humans and all that, they have no ideals beyond the satisfaction of their animal appetites. You can't be a hypocrite if you have no morals at all.

Then he compounds things by writing another column on his blog where he whines that he has a right to question Palin's "judgment" in getting on a plane for 12 hours after her water broke (even though her doctor gave her the green light and encouraged her to get home to give birth):

It's about judgment stupid

I just love the way these men have the gall to question a woman's "judgment" about pre-natal care or where she's going to give birth. A woman's water can break as much as 36 hours before she gives birth; it doesn't mean that birth is imminent. She may not have even been in labor at all at that point; and after having had 4 kids, she oughta know if she is or she isn't. And it turned out just fine; the baby was not born on the plane or anywhere else other than the hospital of the Palins' choice.

Furthermore, I assume that her husband was involved in the decision to just get on home as quickly as possible, but there's not a word about his "judgment."

Colmes is as slimy as they get.

For a very long time now, I have pondered the cognitive dissonance that goes on in the head of a feminist Democrat. The cultural relativism rampant in the Democratic Party has been on a collision course with feminism for a very long time.

A party that cannot bring itself to say there is truly right and wrong in this world cannot elevate the needs of women over the very people that would bring them down- e.g. Islam or even a garden variety misogynist like Colmes. After all, aren't all viewpoints equally valid? How can the rights of women be more important than the rights of a polygamist to have 5 wives?

I think that cognitive dissonance is finally becoming evident to women who, before this election cycle, thought the Dems would fight for them. In reality, the Dems just fight for control of them.

re: #427 Dianna

I was born here. My Male is fourth generation; a number of our friends are multi-generation Californians. We're all conservatives, and gun-owners.

The problem's not us - it's the folks who move here from wherever you live.

I assume you mean Alaska by "here".
I was worried briefly about the talent drain if Sarah Palin gets to be vice president.

Stupid me. You all seem to be at least somewhere near that caliber.

c'mon, it has to be funny as hell for them to watch the opposition self destruct in record time. the attacks are absurd enough that they can't be too deeply hurtful.

That I don't know about.

Believe me, NO ONE I know from where I live is moving to Cali, thanks for the offer, though! What few relatives I have out there (multi-generational Cali people, as well, BTW) can't wait to get the hell out.

Mom's from Alaska - my grandfather was a bush pilot who died doing his duty. His picture hangs in the International Terminal in Anchorage.

He was from Texas. Grandma was from Montana.

The California problem's not people like me, or my friends, as I've said.

Obamba reports:

I would not want to deliver my messianic aura by being live anywhere in the gulf region of the United States. I do not want to detract from the emergency operations in progress.

The audacity of pompousness (is that a word?).

Every time my hubby burps or farts, I ask him to orate during the act: "Barack".

That is what obama is.... hot air. From whatever hole it may exit.

The contrast between the two sides in this election is becoming stark.

Now is the time for all real Americans to come to the aid of their country.

re: #427 Dianna

I can relate, I like to tell people that there are more conservatives in NYC than there are men, women and children in all of South Dakota, the fact that we may be outnumbered 5 to 1 does not change the fact that we exist.

Sarah found out four months into her pregnancy that baby Trig would be born with Down's Syndrome, but she publicly declared that because she's
