Thanks for the kind reax, though I was annoyed with my own performance. It’s weird, on the cruise I defended Alan Colmes dozens of times. Lots of people don’t understand that he’s there to play a part, to annoy conservative viewers. He’s great at it. I know that’s his schtick. And yet, everytime I go on that show, he ticks me off — and it shows. I wish I could just guffaw at him or roll my eyes the way lots of folks do. Can’t do it.
