41. In Franken's book he describes confronting Colmes
When Franken asked him why he didn't respond to obvious lies, Colmes replied that "That's not the format of the show".

In other words the format is a stacked deck, in which the conservatives come out like the Harlem Globetrotters and the Liberals come out like the Washington Generals (Franken's analogy).

It's not fair nor balanced, if Colmes really was a liberal he would know that. Liberals fight for what they believe in, Colmes refuses to fight the good fight. He believes in his paycheck.

What's the word for someone whose morals and integrity are for sale?
