Is there anyone more pompous than Michael Medved?
God 'O Mighty. I caught about five minutes of his show. He had a gal on and they were talking about the new vaccine to prevent a sexually transmitted virus. He was practically accusing her of promoting deviancy because of her advocacy for this vaccine. And the callers, oh my God. And his nationalistic, "The Greatest Country on God's Green Earth" at every break is just absolutely more than I can stand.

When I was listening to him, I was think of the guy who wrote the book that's currently on the market, something like, Confessions of a former dittohead. Basically saying that they don't let facts get in the way of their world view. Well, this show is a prime example of that.

5. Theocratic asshats.
Medved is just another of those lunatic Wingers.
He's not Rapture Right, but he's theocratic as Hell.

Gawd, these guys are ruining this country.

I have no problems with people believing what they want. They can even spew what they want to each other. But these creeps think that they have some Gawd-given right to rule to the exclusion of all other points of view. That's where I draw the line.

Medved, I love my country, you asshole. Shut your freaking pie hole, climb into a ditch some place and leave my country alone.

6. I heard some theocrat on the radio complaining about the HPV vaccine,
saying it promoted "a pro-sex agenda". In other words, sex really is inherently bad, according to these people.

And if they have their way concerning s-e-x, look for them to go after things like public restrooms because they promote a "pro-going to the bathroom agenda".

8. Possibly John Gibson from Faux News is more pompous
I loathe Michael Medved and I agree that he's a pompous ass....but John Gibson is totally vile.

11. He's really out there. Something I found...
I interned for a GLBT news program and was going through unmarked tapes in order to label and archive them. And what do I come across? A speech at a "Reversion Therapy" conference given by Michael Medved. Maggie Gallagher was also there giving in speech, just to give you an idea of what type of filth was there trying to promote un-gaying the gays.

12. John Stossel
"I've worn a Geraldo mustache for yadda-yadda years, and now I've decided I should have just transcribed what government and big business have been saying for all those years. No reason to investigate anything. Nothing to see here, move along, sir."

That's a rough paraphrase, not an actual quote.
