Rest in peace Mr. Colmes. I didn't agree with him but I respected his willingness to tell his side of the story.

Same here. He would be considered low key today compared to some of his ilk that we are now listening to.

Sad to hear this. He has been looking very "sickly" the last few times I've seen him.

He was more of a classical liberal. Too bad that part of your party has been abandoned.

I was once a "classical" liberal.

FOX did say he had been fighting illness while still trying to do his job.

Hannity & Colmes was the last time Fox even gave lip service to being fair and balanced.

I didn't agree with Colmes, but he was really funny. I hate that

Yeah. He seemed like a nice guy, but a bit of a milquetoast on the show with Hannity.

Sorry to hear. He was a liberal, but he did his ideology cheerfully, without extremism or too much vitriol. I thought he was a pretty decent person, even though I disagreed with him on most things political.
