Weirdo wingnuts celebrate Wink Martindale's support of *

[President Jesus]

http://www.rightnation.us/forums/index.php?showtopic=42132

these people are so desperate to find any kind of celebrity who supports the tardking that they have to stoop to gameshow hosts.

[agates]

1. Wink?

I didn't even know he was still around...?

Huh.

[Guaranteed]

2. LOL good old Wink Martindale.

You know, Wayne Newton is a Bush supporter, too.

That makes me feel bad. :(

[Tellurian]

22. Don't forget the old hound, Bob Barker...nt

[Gman]

3. Wink is still alive??

go figure.

[ithinkmyliverhurts]

4. I hate the cult of celebrity in the U.S. and the U.K., but

if Wink is for chimpy, well, it's been a pleasure DU, but I've now got a higher calling.

Does it get any better than Tic Tac Dough? Bring on the dragon!!!!

[goclark]

5. That name is a BLAST from the Past

I can't evrn remember what he looked like - did he look like Dick Clark?

[Cocoa]

21. more like Trent Lott

[Enraged_Ape]

6. Wink is doing porn nowadays

I just made that up, but I can't think of one other fucking thing this guy can be doing nowadays. I don't think he's had a game show in...what, 20 years? And it wasn't like he was a singer, dancer, or stage magician in his prime. No, this man, like the late Bert Convy, was one of those few individuals who was blessed with no discernible talent whatsoever.

Good to hear that he's still alive, though. I thought the motherfucker was dead.

[ithinkmyliverhurts]

8. How dare you, sir. How dare you.

No discernible talent? How about that voice?
How about pure charisma crafted by the hands of angels? History will look kindly upon Wink.

You, sir, are mad.

[outinforce]

12. Indeed, Have You No Shame?!

"No discernable talent"???

To suggest that Wink Matindale -- WINK MARTINDALE, of all people - has no discernable talent is -- well, it's just downright mean.

But then to suggest that Bert Convey has no discernable talent whatsoever is beyond the pale!

Have you no shame, Sir??

[Enraged_Ape]

17. If Wink Martindale has any discernible talent whatsoever...

then Paulie Shore is an entertainment God.

Same goes for Bert "Brillohead" Convy.

[outinforce]

19. Bow, I Tell You! Bow Down!

Bow before the almighty, the all-knowing entertainment God -- Paulie Shore.

13. Bert Convey was in the original Broadway

productions of CABARET and FIDDLER ON THE ROOF

after that, well....

[Enraged_Ape]

18. And I saw David Hasselhoff play Dr. Jekyll on Broadway.

And I still haven't recovered from it.

[nostamj]

23. and your point is?

Convey was a legit B'way leading man LONG before 'stunt' casting of celebrities began.

[Enraged_Ape]

26. No sale. Being on Broadway is ABSOLUTELY no guarantee of talent.

There is not one thing you can do or say to convince me that Convy had any talent other than being buddies with Burt Reynolds and Loni Anderson. Regardless of his Broadway experience, Convy made Ted McGinley look like Christopher Plummer.

[nostamj]

29. fortunately for him

Hal Prince didn't share your 'opinion'

what he did after his B'way years was utter crap. but the man was in two of the most important musical productions in theatre history...

(good lord what am I doing spending time defending BERT CONVEY?)

embrace your derision. run with it. enjoy! i'm done here.

[Enraged_Ape]

30. Thanks, nostamj!

BERT CONVY SUCKS!!!

{So does Wink Martindale!!)

[KharmaTrain]

7. Let's Get Him & Monty Hall in An Alley And Let 'Em Duke It Out

There's also Sajak whose a Pub sucker...and isn't Art Linkletter still alive? Now all I need to know is Chuck Wollery is a repugnican and my world is shatter...well not quite.

BTW...want a song that rates among the all time worst? There's Wink's Fundie Anthem "A Deck Of Cards".

[President Jesus]

9. Actually, Monty Hall is a BIG Dem!

He's been a longtime supporter of the party...

Oddly, he's one of the few game show hosts that's not a puke.

[AntiCoup2K4]

10. Probably because he's Canadian

Pretty sure Monty's a Hoser, eh?

[President Jesus]

11. Yes, I did not know that. Born in Winnipeg. But...

Trebek is Canadian AND a puke:
http://www.newsmeat.com/fec/bystate_detail.php?st=CA&last=Trebek&first=Alex
so much for that theory.

[King Of Paperboys]

27. Trebek?

Didn't I just read that he became an American citizen recently?

[LTR]

14. Well, he donated to Lieberman's presidential bid

But we can let it slide.

[President Jesus]

15. Better 100 donataions to Holy Joe than $.01 to *

I mean, I know Lieberman is not popular whatsoever on this board, but still, we've got to keep our perspective on how bad * is.

[arbusto_baboso]

16. So, I guess the luster of Wayne Newton's endorsement has worn off, huh?

[terrya]

20. Wait...Wink Martindale is for Bush?? Well, that's different, then.

That changes everything now. :-)

[CWebster]

24. what a strange thread...you mean

Stink Fartindale?

[Oddman]

25. Wink and Pat Sajak

are lovers . . .

[Kinkistyle]

28. By God, that oughta get the kids out to vote!

With Pat Boone and Wink on our team, we'll be "Rocking the Vote" for sure" :eyes:
