Poll question: Who's the biggest RW talking-head douchebag?
All of these people are guilty of douchebaggery daily, but which one do you dislike with the most intensity?

I'll admit that personally, Limbaugh, Hannity, & O'Reilly were running neck and neck (and neck?) in my Big Damn Book of Douchebags, but I have to vote for Hannity. He's the only one, while making me violently ill, actually makes me want to commit violence.

Perhaps we can send a "prize" from DU to the winner....

2. Ditto
That is what I was thinking, it is like choosing your own method of grisly death, listening to these ilk.

5. Hahaha!
Good point. I'll choose falling from a high place. At least that way, I could pretend to be doing the breast stroke before I hit the ground. That would stick in people's heads.

3. I voted Hannity
Even though I despise all of them, Hannity is in a class of his own when it comes to pure unadulterated ignorance and arrogance.

I'd actually like to see you get an honorable mention on this poll - Alan Colmes, for ENABLING that pukeface Hannity and never calling him on his bullcrap.

12. Wellstone...
Edited on Thu Sep-18-03 10:24 AM by Evil_Dewers
was awesome. O8) Too bad Ralph :puke: Nader said he wasn't "progressive" enough and had to be allowed to "die" on the vine. Nice choice of words there, Ralph. :puke:

I'm still pissed at The Nation for hammering Wellstone. I haven't read The Nation since. I've heard that Katrina Van Heuvel is now taking shots at Clark for being a war mongering. The progressive cause is lost if we keep shooting at each other, though "There's no difference between either party" Ralph :puke: needs to be put into a Covair as a crash test dummy.

13. I miss him too.
I got to meet him on a couple of occasions, one was on a plane ride to Los Angeles. (I had him and Sheila sign my boarding pass.) And then, not 2 weeks before he died, I caught him at an impromptu campaign stop. Got to take a picture with him - me, my wife, and our two kids. Now the boarding pass and the picture are framed above my desk here.

OK, I think I'll have to stop now before I cry again.

22. I think that was my most favorite part of the book.
It was so appropriate. Sad but oh so true.

10. I'll agree
The ugly little twerp makes a point of pimping every white supremacist he can dredge up on his radio show...

4. Chris Matthews
Or all of the above. And I don't even watch television unless I have to. I just remember Chris Matthews from the impeachment debacle back in '98

I've never listened to a single one of them. Honest!

20. Why do Repblicans make stars out of their criminals?
Ollie North and G. Gordon Liddy. These men didn't just get a blowjob and lie about it- they trampled all over the law. But... they did it in the name of the GOP, so they're heroes. (?)

I just don't get it.

21. That's a really tough choice
I went with Oh'Really because he is such a whiner, but there were some really good alternatives there.

23. Hannity seems dim. O'Reilly loves himself. But Coulter
is malignant.

24. How could you possibly neglect to put Michael Weiner-Savage
Edited on Thu Sep-18-03 11:04 AM by Flying_Pig
on this list??? I can't think of a more hateful, dangerous "mouth" in all of media. He has advocated death for gays and liberals, is a vehement racist, and, ... I won't even bother to go on .... This man is one sick bastard, and should have been on your list. Though he may not be as influential as some of the others you have listed, he's by far the sickest.

:grr:
GRR!!

25. Yeah. My bad.
Since he got canned, I've tried to block him out of my mind, but he should've been included.
