1. dirty secret: I think Novak's fun to watch
He's blustery, wrong, takes cheap shots, and impedes the fight against WMD proliferation. But I just find the guy has a winning personality despite these few quirks of personality.

4. I Have To Agree
Bob is so much fun to watch. At least he was good enough, way back right after 9/11, to blame the unfair foreign policy of the US toward Arab States for part of the problem of 9/11. Which is the major reason his columns were banned from the National Review. Bob is fun.

10. the problem with Bob
Is his teeth. Man, the guy gives me the creeps, just with those yellow, icky teeth alone. So I can't watch him but if I could, he would get my vote just because of the sideshow entertainment--is ridiculous stories with the Plame affair and shoving a guy holding a sign.

Oh, speaking of sideshows, you forgot Drunken Jack Cafferty.

13. Naaah... He got new choppers a few months back. And..
He's even more fun to watch than ever with those choppers. When he gets drunk they rattle. It's a hoot!

12. Novak is fun to watch. Especially when he's blistered..
but I have to go with Rush. His mental gymnastics fascinates me. I truly find him entertaining. Too bad the rest of his listeners don't see through the game.

2. Had to go Scotty
Ari was dangerous because he made it seem sometimes like he answered a tough quetion. Scotty makes the most obvious dodge over and over, and if we had a real press, he would be eaten alive. For this reason I hate him least. He makes the chimp look stupid. I can appreciate him for that.

3. damn, that's TOUGH
I have to :puke: now just thinking of it...


I picked Simple Scotty because he really does suck totall ass at his job, it makes him so amusing. He's "Beltway Bob" }(

and while I thoroughly loathe Ari, I can at least acknowledge that he was damned good at being a slimy dodgy bastard worm.

6. Scott squirms like someone who still has a conscience.
Not exactly a poker face. He knows that we know he's bluffing.

7. I Didn't Vote, Because
my pick isn't on the list. I personally would pick Neal Boortz.
I know...Boortz's name is poison around here, but I honestly don't understand why. I disagree with a lot of what he says, but I respect him, because at least he DOES rip on the 'Pukes ow and again...and he positively rails on te conservative so-called Christians...the Religious Reich. I hate the religious reich, and Boortz earned my respect for consistently rippiing on them!!

Now, Boortz's politics...on the other hand...well, I don't like them either...but I ENJOY listening to him when he goes off on the "Christian" zealots!

11. Gotta go with.................
Scott.....to knowingly lie and cover up the Bush administrations deceit day after day and do it in such an overtly hideous fashion has got to be the toughest job in the world. He sucks at it, but that's what makes him so charmingly despicable.

17. Make that 2 for Tucker
He stinks, but he's kinda cute in that annoying frat boy way, with that perky bowtie. Also his arguments are lame and easily picked apart. I loved it when Hilary made him eat the shoe cake.

19. I don't consider Tucker Carlson a "Republican propagandist".
Conservative talking head, yes.
Republican propagandist, absolutely not. He has the capacity to think for himself.

20. Yeah, I agree.
And he's the only one that I can stand on a regular basis. And he's done a few articles for Esquire, he's not a bad writer.

16. They are all dreadfully vile, but if pressed, I'd pick Novak or McClellan.
I think there's some hope for Novak, and McClellan just seems like a stooge.

18. McClellan is pathetic, but
not as utterly detestable as the bags of filth listed below him.

21. William Kristol....even though he is one of the elite neo-cons, he is
always rational, no red meat wingnut rhetoric, no straw man
BS metaphors, calls Bush out when he feels it. I think I could
have a conversation with this man.

23. Dennis Miller. No doubt.
It was a treat watching Eric Alterman humiliate that little right wing opportunistic creep.

When I watch Miller, I see flop sweat...a man who switched principles for the big bucks...someone slavishly sucking up to George W. Bush because that's where he thinks the money is. And when someone cleans his clock, it's fun to watch him make a fool of himself. I'd love to see Miller try to hold his own against Al Franken, for instance.
