Hannity and Colmes was a show that ran on Fox News from October 1996 to January 2009. The show was hosted by Hannity, a conservative, and Colmes, a liberal. On the particular episode that I posted above, the hosts are interviewing Alan Keyes, who ran for President of the United States in 2008. First Colmes asks him a few questions and allows Keyes to respong. Keyes is answering the questions to a certain point, but is avoiding answering parts of the question. Colmes does not make a big deal about this and moves onto the next question.
When it is Hannitys turn to ask the questions, he does not let Keyes off the hook at all. He keeps drilling into Keyes and you can see that it is making him uncomfortable. Hannity seems that he is not the kind of person that you want interviewing you. He kept interupting Keyes and giving him a hard time with everything that he said. After watching more clips of the show it became obvious that Hannity can be pretty stuborn and thick headed, while Colmes is more even tempered. It is easy to see why Colmes left the show last year. I don't know how he lasted this long. The show is now simply entitled 'Hannity'.
