  • Greg Gutfeld has AIDS

  • I think Alan meant speaking out against the Bush government. I doubt anyone would win a First Amendment award for speaking out against Obama.

  • Sounded like Colmes said "zombie poll". Haha.

  • Colmes is freaking ugly!

  • The fall of Government school education is that these schools are being used as a propaganda indoctrination of Democrat Propaganda...textbooks used are according to their brainwashing agenda and it shows from these graduates of Government schools. I am glad I graduated overseas. Schools are brainwashed about Global warming , sex, gay marriage, abortions etc...The present school system is sucks...they can't even teach well that I still have to teach my daughter about Science, Math (ex.fractions)

  • and furthermore, public schools work when people try to make them work. my mom teaches in a public school that sends about 15% of the class to the ivy league. i myself went to a public school, and i know people who went private, and i can say i got just as good an education as them. again, i'm truly sorry your school sucked, but not all of them do. we have more students in private schools than ever! and that doesn't attribute to our fall in rank? Private school is just for the world's nepotists.

  • and furthermore, the fall of public schools can be attributed to the right-wing, who abandoned it long before we were 21st in education. you think we were 21st in education during the 60s? ever since the republicans came into long term power (only 12 years of democratic rule post nixon), they've had it out for public schools, out of ideology. you can say that they are attacking a system that doesn't work, but they had close to 45 years to fix it, and instead they just pushed the alternative.

  • @azzurri418

    The pitiful state of public schools can be attributed to the fact that government education is entirely evil. The government has no right to spend a single dime on government schools. ALL EDUCATION must be private.

  • spoken like a true right winger. of course, we shouldn't try to fix a system that doesn't seem to be working optimally, we should throw out the initial investment in public schools, and put in another re-investment all with private schools. not to mention the fact that we were still first in education in the '50s, the golden age of public schools.

    private schools pay their teachers less, without most of the benefits of public schools. why would the best teacher want to work at private schools?

  • Ellis should stick to Sealab 2021. Firstly Ellis, we live in a republic, not a democracy. Secondly, there is such a thing as preaching to the Choir. Does anyone actually think Penn would go the the heritage foundation and say what he says?

  • You're probably right about Penn. He would be just as likely go speak at the Heritage Foundation as President Bush would be likely to not screen his speech attendees.

    And if you were to take everyone who called the United States a democracy instead of a republic (when referring to it offhand, no less) off tv, you wouldn't have anyone on tv. And seriously, if you've never called the country a democracy, in your entire life, I truly and honestly commend your inflexible, adolescent nitpicking.

  • The sad thing is, when you go to public school they teach you that we live in a democracy, and they brainwash us to think that democracy is the unequivocally finest form of govt.

    Also, If president bush can dodge shoes like he did before, he wont need to screen his speech attendees.

  • I disagree. If anything, I think in school they teach you the absolute truth, then the modern media and lexicon changes that truth to a buzzword. I know that in my (public) school history class, we were taught about the difference between a democratic republic and a democracy. Then, all media/politicians use the word "democracy", that word replaces the word "republic." Even the President uses it. It's like how "emo" went from bands like Rites of Spring to bands like Fall Out Boy.

  • You're hilarious. From grade one, america was a democracy. Every teacher, every class. Unfortunately that was public school. They were trying to kill the idea of individualism for us. If you didn't want to do something group oriented, you were criticized as someone who wasn't a team player. Majority rules is the best way, they would tell us. Maybe they were just too lazy to try to explain the benefits of rule of law over the rule of the majority. It was public school after all.

  • I'm not sure where you went to school, and I can't comment on your experience, just as you (though you apparently don't get this) have no idea what I was taught in school.

    I really feel sorry for you, since you seem to have gotten the short end of high school education. Again, I ( mentally italicize that) was taught the difference between systems of government, as well as all their benefits and detriments. It seems I've been unaffected by the abandonment of pubic schools by the right. Hooray.

  • public school ought to be abandoned by everybody, because it is criminal how they operate. Excellence is not rewarded, and mediocrity is tolerated among both students, and teachers. Before the public education system was founded, the USA was no.1 in the world for education. Since the founding of the department of education in the 1950's we have continually slipped to where we are today no. 21, and there is no sign of turning around. Dont blame the right, blame the system itself.

  • Greg is so cool!

  • Brilliant performance by Greg. They need to get him on serious discussions during the day more often. He's just as good as Dennis Miller, always has a charming, sarcastic comment with which to retort.

  • Gutfeld owned the exoskeleton Colmes. It should be Gutfeld and Colmes. Greg is at the far end of the bell curve and would obliterate Colmes daily. To bad FOX want sack Hannity in favor of Greg.

  • Alan should get a dictionary and look up "censorship".

    And yes the hollywood illiteratti is out of touch.

  • Greg Gutfeld should fill in for Hannity next time Hannity goes on vacation. LOL>

  • i love how gutfeld made a great point about penn and alan being the royal douche he is didnt even respond to it.

  • gutfeld looks like godlington.

  • ellis should run haha, hes got my vote

  • I like Ellis Henican, but...

    Go Stormy!

  • Everytine I see that guy, I think of Sam I am and Jeff Spiccoli. Nuff said

  • STORMY!!! WOOT WOOT!!!

  • Sean Penn's an arse, he's so up himself. Colmes is an idiot too, he's never very good at arguing a point, he just states a point without fully justifying it.
