32. She gets my vote. Disgusting to listen to.
Especially the way she makes those lip-smacking noises after the "Money Shot". Listening to her is worse than listening to my neighbours screw, because I know Cokie is thinking about servicing the Shrub while she delivers her RNC talking-points...

Because they're much more subtle in some ways about it, and they're on when people are only half-listening to whats being said. :scared:

10. There are two kinds of bad: there's the bad where you don't
reallyh worry that people will take them seriously, and that's a group which Coulter sits atop of and which includes, Hannity, Limbaugh, O'Reilly, etc.

Then there's bad in the sense that they have a very subtle RW agenda which people don't realize, and those people are truly dangerous. Many of the NPR reporters fall in this category, like Inskeep and Westerveld. What they do is very dangerous. Also, there are many NYT reporters who do the same thing. Like that guy behind the Wen Ho Lee thing.

I actually group Wash Post with coulter. I can't believe too many people take them seriously.

23. The thing that's amusing about that picture is, remember 9.11
when the Republicans kept trying to have Bush make us feel safe? Every time he went on TV it was a bigger disaster than the previous time. So, they waited for the toxic dust to settle in NYC and got him down there with the bullhorn.

Well, there you have it. The ONE thing he did well when he was young. Who'd a thought it would have turned out to be such a valuable skill? While Clinton and the rest of the GOOD people were working so hard to make something of themselves...it turns out they were wasting their time...focusing on the wrong skill set.

Boolah boolah.

11. The stealth "objective reporters"
we already know how Coulter, Hannity, Goldberg, Snowe, Hume, Dobbs, McLaughlin and Oh'Really think, so when they blather, it's really no suprise to anyone.

But when George Stephanopolis gets in front of Peter Jennings and says the economy is great and the Democrats have nothing left to run against Chimpy on, then I have to really get pissed. Judy Woodruff, who plays a cathouse madame on TV, whores for Bush all day. Soft spoken, smiling "Meet the Depressed" anchor Tim Russert throws Dems to the wolves, and always with a "conservative counterpoint", and throws softballs at repugs, without any "Liberal counterpoint". When Kookie Roberts goes on and on about an "extremely popular President" even though polls say 54% at best, then there's trouble. And I think Wolf Blitzer's schtick is underhanded too.

They are the real dangers, because they fool the masses into believing they're objective.

15. O'Reilly
He particulary bothers me because he appeals to more numbnuts with his gosh shucks I'm just a poor boy that did well shtick. And he seems to get away with behavior that rivals even Hannity. So yes I hate him.

If anyone hasn't read or heard Al Franken Lies and Lying Liars I highly recommend it for a great exposee on RW pundits. It funny too.

19. O Reilly
Edited on Wed Dec-03-03 02:11 AM by AmericanLiberal
Agree, not that I watch him but Franken seems to be able to dig up the most crap about him, plus he claims (or claimed) to be an independent. At least the others are honest about their radical ultraconservatism.

25. Hey
Atleast she's easy on the eyes! :evilgrin:

I must go with Mann Coulter...But her bias is fairly obvious...Same with Ingrahm and O'Reilly ..all quite shallow, but extremely onboxious...OReilly reminds me of a dumb, spoilt, bully...

I'll go with Bill Schnieder and Russert though...They're more subtle which is more dangerous...

20. Oh good lord, you're going to have to tell us what your definition of
"worst" is. It's so harrrrrrd.

The most consistently hypocritical?
The one feigning the most credibility?
The most blatently offensive?
The biggest liar?
The most toxic sex toy?


You're just going to have to give me more specifics.

26. At least Rush is funny....
Bill speaks very poorly (and its his career!), and he's not even funny! Sean at least speaks well, but doesn't know how to engage (also not funny). At least Rush is funny.

30. in the way he talks
Whenever I hear Rush talk, I think of Howard Stern's impersonation (or is it Artie's), and I get a big laugh. I guess you had to be there...this one time, at band camp...

28. For having done the most overall damage
I would nominate Lush Rimbaugh. He has lied and twisted the facts and misled his listeners so much more than just about any of them.
