The 20 Most Annoying People on the Right (a list compiled by the Right)
If you can hold your nose and read Human Events just this once, you'll be rewarded with an amusing little list. :) (Yes, Shrub is on it.)

After spending so much time beating up on liberals in 2006, I thought it was only fair to write an article nailing people on our side of the aisle.

Honorable Mentions: Susan Collins, Mike DeWine, Jerry Falwell, Lindsey Graham, Jim Kolbe, Richard Lugar, Grover Norquist, Bob Ney, Don Sherwood, John Warner.

20) Larry Kudlow: "Whether it's anti-Arab Islamophobia or anti-Mexican Hispanophobia, the fear-mongers in the conservative ranks do not truly believe in economic opportunity. Nor do they believe in Ronald Reagan's "City on a Hill" vision of America, where it is our charge to lead the world toward free-market prosperity, political democratization and true freedom for all peoples. Yes, there is a rift in the conservative ranks. Opposing President Bush are those with a vision of pessimism, defeatism and fear. Supporting the president are those with a Reaganite vision that brims with opportunity, victory and success in the spread of freedom and democratization." -- Larry Kudlow

19) Joseph Farah: Farah did a magnificent job building up WorldNetDaily into a force on the right, but the page seems to be getting progressively wackier. They've got a columnist claiming soy makes people gay and they're constantly touting the insane North American Union conspiracy theory. Take the red pill, Neo, and come back to reality before the nutty stuff ruins all the great work you're doing.

1. #1.... The Winner... John McCain
1) John McCain: The No. 1 Republican advocate for coddling terrorists at Gitmo, amnesty for illegals, and curtailing free speech about elections. If the Republicans in the Senate are planting a thumb in the eye of conservatives, 9 times out of 10, you can count on this egomaniac being at the root of it.

2. that's a fun list, eh? can't argue with any of the names, except Chafee,
Edited on Wed Jan-03-07 06:07 PM by Gabi Hayes
but I love his reasons for listing (almost all wrong, of course), especially the ones for McCain

doesn't he realize that he's their best shot, now that Rudy's campaign is in danger?

or won't he be buying McCain's further swerve to the right, in order to pander to the trog base?

3. #10 is good also- Our Pretzeldent
10) George Bush: I really hate to ding the President on a list like this, but he showed a level of political incompetence last year that hasn't been seen since the Carter Administration and that had a lot to do with the drubbing Republicans took in 2006. Moreover, there's the out-of-control spending, his incredibly obnoxious position on illegal immigration, and his seeming reluctance to get serious about Iran, Syria, North Korea and Muqtada al-Sadr is getting to be a real drag.

4. These idiots had Total Control over the Federal government...
...for six goddamn years and managed to be so greedy and self-centered that they couldn't even implement their own legislative agenda. They suck at governing.

5. That's what makes their anger now so amusing.
They're desperately pointing fingers at all the other conservatives, because it just has to be someone else's fault!

6. The reasons he gives for his choices remind me why I'm not a conservative.
I agree that McCain is a PITA, but not because he made statements opposing torture. What kind of world do these people live in?
