How many conservative pundits can you name? How many liberal ones?

[Downtown Hound]

Here's my list:

Conservative: Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Joe Scarborough, Kudlow and Kramer (help me out on those last two, I've only seen brief snippets of their show but they seemed conservative to me), Dennis Miller, Charles Krauthammer, Bill Kristol, Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, Brit Hume, Wolf Blitzer, Michael Savage, Michael Medved, William Bennett, John Kasich, Cal Thomas, and Tucker Carlson.

Liberal: Keith Olbermann, Alan Colmes (Fox's whipping boy), and maybe Al Franken, Randi Rhodes, and Mike Malloy, but I don't know if I'd call those last three pundits on the account that they are mostly radio hosts that occasionally appear on TV.

I'm asking this because I'm currently in a flame war with some idiot on Youtube who's whining about conservative voices being silenced. Judging from the list I've already cooked up, I'd say that he shouldn't be too worried. But any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Gotta love that liberal media that puts so many liberal voices on to drown out them conservatives doncha'?

1. You left the entire Fox News Network off of your 'conservative' list...

2. Fighting with a freeper. Even when you win you lose.

You lose precious time. Freepers are idiots. It's like arguing with the birds outside your window. They'll keep on chirping.

5. I agree

it's like wrestling with a pig.

the knuckledraggers will not listen to fact or reason - that's why they still vote repug

7. It's not him I'm worried about

I've actually noticed that some of the more apolitical types on youtube actually take notice when there's a good flamewar on there and listen to the side that presents the best argument. I rather enjoy humiliating freepers on non-political boards. Even if they don't change, some of the other passer-bys might.

3. Chris Mattews Norah O'Donnel

[Ignacio Upton]

4. Matthews goes both ways

O'Donnell is on the Bush payroll all the time.

[Ellis Wyatt]

6. Ludlow and Kramer

All they care about is money. Kramer specifically, I didn't think he talks about politics (though I don't listen to him since I can't stand his mannerisms). Ludlow is definitely a conservative. Also had a raging coke problem back in the 80s when he was a king on Wall Street.

I'd probably also say Miller is more of a Libertarian than a conservative.

Other Libs: Bill Maher, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Sam Donaldson, George Stephanopolous, Tavis Smiley off the top of my head.

But you are correct that relatively few liberals have their own show to openly espouse their opinions compared to the folks on the right.

9. I'd have to disagree about Miller

Most of the Libertarians I know are adamantly opposed to the Iraq War, and I know quite a few. Miller has been a huge Bush butt kisser for a long time now, especially on Iraq.

8. Liberal: Sam Seder and Thom Hartmann. nt

10. All my pundits are liberals
