Alan Colmes’ Fiery Defense of Weiner Leads to Spark-Flying, On-Air Debate

Earlier today, sparks were a-flying on FOX News‘ America’s Newsroom when Alan Colmes took to defending Rep. Anthony Weiner. The liberal commentator unleashed his thoughts during a debate with conservative writer and commentator Steve Hayes.

During the fiery discussion, Colmes said that, while he doesn‘t condone Weiner’s behavior, it’s a shame that the embattled congressman may be forced to step down. He said:

“Unless we find out that he broke the law … then that’s a different story. Or unless he thinks that something else might come out where he broke the law, then I think it’s a shame that a personal situation like this should result in him having to leave his job…this has nothing to do with whether or not he’s a good congressman. I want someone in office, not to be my moral guide, but to vote the way I want them to vote.”

Watch the debate unfold below:

    Not sure how much I respected Colmes before this interview. However, I am certain after this interview that I have NO respect for him.

    Once the basis for someone‘s argument for bad behavior is based on someone else’s bad behavior, you have lost the argument.

    Two Wrongs don’t make a Right.

    More Proof that Liberalism is a mental disorder. Colmes said Weiner shouldn’t be forced out. Even though he lied. Even though he sent Lewd pictures through the internet (which is breakling the law), and is immoral. Just as long as Weiner votes the way he wants, he doesn’t care. I bet if John Wayne Gacey voted the way Colmes wanted, he would be ok with that as well….

      Alan Colmes is a degenerate I cannot stand this creature he defines hardcore liberal progressive. He is ALWAYS in defense of those we all know to be in the wrong be it Weiner to terrorists. For the life of me I cannot remember the exact topic but when he had the show with Hannity he challenged someone on the position of self admitted terrorists… was coming to their aid.

      Colmes is the model of how the majority of liberal progressives are in this country. Their kind can eat children for no other reason than entertainment and find no foul in it then find a way to blame the otherside for the act.

      Oh Alan, you’ve missed the point, again.

      Weiner‘s problem isn’t the content of the pictures, or that he thought sending the pictures to complete strangers was OK – his problem is/was his pro-active lying about being “hacked/pranked” to every reporter that he could convince to come to his office for a one-on-one interview. That act cost him his seat in congress.

      President Clinton‘s problem wasn’t that he put his wee-willy in the interns mouth in the oval office, nor that he stained a rather unremarkable blue dress, and it strangely doesn’t rely on your definition the word “is” – it was that he lied about doing it to a federal judge.

      Weiner took a personal situation and then, playing on his trust with the public/press, tried to deflect responsibility on innocent parties, then finally came clean.

      Of course, Bill Maher said on Friday also holds true – it’s hard to look at him and not think to yourself “I’ve seen your *ick” – it would be very hard for anyone to take him seriously after this…

      His defenders fail to acknowledge his constant lying about his responsibility…

      Immorality which includes pornography, and is exactly what Weiner engaged in, is considered “BAD BEHAVIOR”, and an impeachable offense. With loss of character and principle the Constitution is directly attacked by those who engage in bad behavior, bribery, high crimes and other misdemeanors.

      Article 3, Section 1:
      “The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour”. Note that the tenure of Federal Judges is not for life, but merely “during good behaviour”.
      Article 2, Section 4:
      “all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”
      “All civil officers” clearly includes Judges.
      (Article 6, Section 1, Clause 3) “all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution”.

      Furthermore. Samuel Adams said: “While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but once they lose their virtue they will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader.”

      Noah Webster: “The moral principles and precepts contained in the Scriptures ought to form the basis of all our civil constitution and laws… All the miseries and evils which men suffer from vice, crime, ambition, injustice, oppression, slavery, and war proceed from their despising or neglecting the precepts in th

      Can you imagine Colmes / Weiner as high school students?

      Is it really any wonder why Colmes would defend this pathetic little whimp?

      Hey Alan, there’s a reason why there is no more a Hannity & Colmes program. I still don’t know why FOX News allows you on air, unless it’s to show what an a$$ you are.

      It looks like Colmes STILL hasn’t “man up”ed to the fact that he is a “B-word” (as he once put it). To all the rest of us … yes, he is a b¦tch.

      Colmes is a means justifies the end kind of demolibersocialcommie. He said he doesn’t care what this guy does as long as he votes the way he wants him to. That is a completely screwed up way of thinking and this clown can’t see through his ideaology to make a rational thought. Colmes is dead ass wrong 99.999% of the time and has never admitted being wrong even when he is confronted with the truth commpared to what he said. I’m glad he is on FOX and I hope he continues to spout of his useless drivel and make the demolibersocialcommie message look more inane than it already is. Keep on talking Colmes and help out the right. Morality and ethical behavior are dead in the Democratic party. I would never be associated with that kind of trash.

      I think Alan might have been on Weiners sexting list and he thinks that it will all go away now that he is not in office. Not as much excitement sexting with an ordinary Joe for Alan I guess.

      Alan Colmes is sounding more and more bizarre by the day…

      This so-called “private issue” became most public when Weiner decided to publish his disgusting pictures online… And what ever happened to moral integrity?

      The more desperate Colmes and his fellow radical Lefties become, the more ridiculous they sound…

      I always thought Colmes was paid to say the dumb things he used to say while on Hannity’s show. Now I know he’s also a sick twisted liberal hack without a brain of his own. I think he would defend a liberal who killed someone. I really think Fox should completely remove his ass from any TV show.
      He’s an embarrassment to Americans. I’d like to see his birth certificate!

      “I want someone in office, not to be my moral guide, but to vote the way I want them to vote.”

      Does the venerable Mr. Colmes not realize that no member of Congress is obligated to vote the way their constituents would want or expect? This is a representative republic – not a pure Democracy. These men and women will say and/or do whatever it takes to get the power; but once it‘s firmly in their grasp they’re overcome with that sense of absolute power and corruption overtakes them. Colmes should understand this after all the years Hannity tried to school him.

      This is exactly why our Country is where it is today. From the 60′s we get Alan Colmes types who justify immoral behavior as personal and not germane to what a public official does. “As long as he votes as I want him”. Exactly what a liberal would say and wants. Hell he’d keep Charles Manson in office as long as he voted “The way I want him”. No morals. No decency. All great Empires met their demise due to weak moral living. Greeks, Romans, Assyrians. Heck when Genghis Khan sons killed one another, that empire was doomed. Murder, rape, man love, boy love, it all leads to the destruction of an Empire. Are we to be next because of the likes of Alan Colmes who doesn’t care what is in someones private life when they are a public official? “As long as no crime as been committed”. Man 0 Man. Where is that comet marked “SPECIAL DELIVERY EARTH”. We need to be taken out of the righteous order of the universe.

      rogue, The Enormous Absurdities
      Over the years, Colmes has backed and boxed himself into an ever decreasing corner. His logic defies intelligence betraying his underlying determination to win, damn expense, ‘I want someone in office not to be my moral guide, but to vote the way I want them to vote.’ Womanizing is obviously ok with him. Being a womanizer will never influence a decision of a lawmaker, will it? What does morals have to do with the making or enforcing of law?

      Colmes, please give us good reason to have law that is not based on ‘moral guide.‘ ’vote the way I want them to vote’ is what one mob member might say of the rest of the mob. Democracy is dangerous and that is why we are a Republic rooted in virtues and morals, and not a Democracy living on the whims of a moment. I want my Representatives to be principled, strong on moral convictions, weak on hypocrisy, openly dedicated to our Constitution. If they are not, it is my problem, needing my remedy.

      I hate listening to Colmes, he is so narrow minded always willing to reduce any argument to mob like utilization. The mobs terrorizing our businesses must appeal to Colmes because they all vote and act alike. Yet listening to Colmes is… wellll, gots ta git done.

      Alan Colmes probably likes ~‘The Weiner’~ and I’m not talking about Anthony.
      Alan had to buy a Wife from Asia. Look at Him. Is He a crack head too?
