William Randolph Hearst once told a reporter to send him the photos and he would give him the war. Fox could teach Hearst a thing or two about manufacturing the news!
Do I really need to explain this? I don't think this guy has that much faith in the Tea Party's ability to govern either--he's selling survival rations with a 25 year shelf life. Can the delux Glenn Beck approved Super-Duper Terrorist Proof Nuclear Fallout shelter be far away. And he wonders why we call him a fear mongerer!
what a pompous, self satisfied hypocrite. A cousin of mine has Turrette's Syndrome and I'll never forget Rush pontificating on the subject of Turrette's and how Michael J. Fox had been faking his symptoms for the camera. What a cretinish creep.
It almost seems unfair to put her in here with such heavy hitters.

Great list! I agree with most. I would add the Octomom, Kathy Lee Gifford, Kanye West, the ex-Miss California (and the wacky Judge who dissed her). All people I wish would just go away somewhere.
Ha Ha - didn“t know everybody on this list but those I do know, I totally agree, they are really annoying. Your Limbaugh phrase, "cretinish creep" is particularly funny.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 13, 2009
Thank you. My Limbaugh comment is the sanitized version of my opinion, but it still gets the basic feeling across.
My biggest problem with Jon Stewart is that I've never seen someone laugh at their own jokes so many times. I swear the guy's got the ego of a Greek God, but only a fraction of the brains and none of the muscle.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 09, 2009
Oh, his writers are pretty sharp, but after all he is only a stand up comic so we have to cut him some slack in the intellect department. Now John Oliver is a lot smarter and rarely laughs at what he's saying. I like him a lot more and I'd like him to spin off the way Colbert did.
Well, there is now. It stands for hypocrite. Yep. And there is no "c" in Orlok. And please, don't tell me what it stands for. LOL!
QUEENBFLIXOctober 13, 2009
I just learned that before he found out that he could make more money attacking liberals on Fox, that Beck had done the opposite as a radio jock! What a whore.
Count_Orlok_22October 13, 2009
LMAO! Well put, Queenie.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 13, 2009
Mort Sahl, a stand up comic in the 60s with a definite liberal point of view ruined his career when he admitted that he voted for Nixon in 68. I know people can change their minds. It's been said that if you aren't a liberal when you're young, you have no heart and if you're not a conservative when you're old then you have no brain. People change. But I think this guy's just in it for the bucks.
Count_Orlok_22October 13, 2009
I say, "If you're not a liberal when you're young, then you're not into politics. If you're not a liberal once you've gotten older, then you clearly haven't gained any wisdom with age."
QUEENBFLIXOctober 13, 2009
It's not my old saying so I'm not going to tinker with it.
Count_Orlok_22October 13, 2009
Why start showing reverence now?
QUEENBFLIXOctober 13, 2009
I wouldn't say that I'm showing reverence. I'd say that now that I've gotten older I've found out that in at least one case there is a modicum of truth in it. Perhaps not everyone becomes a Conservative, but they may very well become a bit more conservative than they were when they were 17. Mark Twain once said that when he was 17 his father didn't know a thing, but by the time he was 29 he was surprised at how much the old man had learned.

I don't really think Stewart has the ego of a Greek God to be honest. I mean, I laugh at my jokes all the time but my friends are always telling me my biggest problem is that I don't have much of an ego. He seems pretty darn smart to me. At least when I double check the facts he puts out there... almost each time they're dead on. But the ego of a Greek God? I don't really think so. He seems more self conscious than anything. A comedian who needs an Ego-Check might be Carlos Mencia. But just the same, Jon Stewart provides me with a lot of entertainment at least.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 29, 2009
At least he HAS facts to check unlike Glen Beck who just makes wild statements without providing anything to back them up.
Count_Orlok_22October 29, 2009
Well, Beck is interesting because he actually believes himself to be centralist and fair. I listened to his radio show a few months back and he went on and on about how people kept categorizing him as being just another "Right wing nut" when he claims to be central, and then he proceeded to go on a rant about how Democrats were trying to turn America into a haven for Socialism. The guy has no sense of perspective when it comes to his own words.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 29, 2009
I don't think Beck really BELIEVES anything. I think he presents himself to his right wing audience as a centerist who's fair minded.
I freakin' LOVE Jon Stewart. But according to everyone I've talked to from New Jersey... uh, "Fuck" is a very big part of their vocabulary. Guess it rubbed off on Jon, that's where he's from.
For me I think I'd agree with most people on your list, although I think Megan Fox is VERY annoying and so is Sean Hannity... and Seth MacFarlane... I could go on and on. I should just shut up and create my own darn list.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 08, 2009
Go for it. Hannity could have been on my list too, but I didn't want it to be composed of nothing but right wing, ultra-conservative blowhards. =)
Interesting thoughts on Jon's vocab! I am a native as well so I guess I can vouch for that. ;)
QUEENBFLIXOctober 09, 2009
It just makes the show seem like it's geared for the 20 something crowd every time he gets bleeped. It also lessens the import of everything he says.
Sean_RhodesOctober 09, 2009
I thinkt he only thing that really annoys me about Stewart is that he hides behind the "I'm a comedian," moniker a little too much. A lot of people take what he says and the criticisms he throws out there very seriously. But the problem is that he always plays that card whenever HE'S criticized. I love Jon Stewart and find him very intelligent (his interviews with his guest have gotten way better since Obama got elected) but he's gotta start taking punches for all the ones he throws out.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 09, 2009
True, but he IS only a comedian who happens to do political comedy. At least he's not setting himself up as a Left Wing Demi-God like Limbaugh or Beck are on the right. That would be bordering on the criminal. He's playing it right in my book.
Sean_RhodesOctober 09, 2009
Yeah that's true, he's not playing this, "I'm the voice of the people thing," which I do like... actually almost every commentator on Fox News seems to be doing that... you could make a list that featured people exclusively from Fox News if you really tried...
QUEENBFLIXOctober 09, 2009
Exactly. That's why I just made Fox News my number one choice--they're all sort of interchangeable.
QUEENBFLIXOctober 19, 2009
Never said I didn't like him. Just said he annoys me. There are many degrees of annoyance.
I am the poster child for inertia. Where ever I am is where I plan to stay FOREVER. So much so in fact that it took me decades to understand the punchline about why the chicken … more
