17. I don't think Ann Coulter counts
She's not so much extreme as she is batshit insane. Kinda like Zell Miller, you know?

20. There's definitely a "Belfry-Load" in there
But as long as CNN, FOX etc let her rant, she counts.

2. Ann Coulter, easily, among those "well known". I'd throw in Savage but
I think his recognition factor is way lower.

3. Why isn't Tweety on the list?
He's a natural. He would win going away.

5. Coulter and Robertson keep trying to out vomit each other on the air
Coulter's sicker but Robertson has more experience.

They're running neck and neck for the most sickening, hateful right wing spewbot right now.

6. Michael Savage, Pat Robertson and Jerry Falwell.
These people really believe the crap they spew - I think most of those people on your list believe what they spew for the bucks.

7. Their are just so many to choose from...
Picking one is just so, well, limiting.
BTW Ann Coulter (aka The Harpy) should also be on the list

9. Robertson...
I consider Hannity, Coulter, Limbaugh, and O'Lielly mouthpieces and nothing more. They do it to make a few bucks and knowingly lie.

Robertson really believes his own shit.

11. Why isnt Michael Savage on the list?
With a book title like "Liberalism Is A Mental Disorder", Savage makes Limbaugh look like a democratic sympathizer.

13. O'Reilly above all those listed
Edited on Sat Mar-18-06 02:21 PM by Rob H.
I'd pick Hannity as a close second. He's as big a liar as O'Reilly, but he can be even slimier. (I've caught a bit of Hannity on right-wingnut radio--judging by the calls he gets, his listeners certainly aren't the brightest people in the world, either, and that's being charitable.)

14. Coulter? Robertson? Savage? Liddy?
Edited on Sat Mar-18-06 02:19 PM by KyuzoGator
The options in the poll are downright tame compared to the "kill all the liberals" types out there on the air.

16. The Imus gang are pretty vile, especially Bernard,
but the most dangerous one may be timmy russert.

18. Michael Savage wears the Mark of the Beast
Savage is a fucking psychopath. The worst of the worst. Makes Hannity appear only slightly disagreeable. Makes O'Reilly seem almost reasonable.

Oh, and it was Savage who led the nativist charge on the port deal.

27. There is one I can't understand, Tony Snow fills in for
Oliely and Limpballs and he is a news reporter on Faux News. Can you imagine the outrage from the Right if another news person would sub for one of the Air America hosts? Where is the outrage, were are the Democrats screaming (Right Wing Media).

35. There are a lot of loons out there in the media
But Coulter, O'Reilly & Robertson deserve the top prizes. Because threatening the lives of others would definately get you that first class prize of a one way, first class ticket to looneyville. Yet sadly O'Reilly's threat to the people of San Francisco is small potatoes compared to Coulter's & Robertson's threats to public officials such as a former President, President of another country, and Supreme Court Justices(only applies to Justices Breyer, Ginsburg, Kennedy, Souter, & Stevens). Some sick freaks...

37. I think David Horowitz is the looniest but O'Reilly the most annoying
Edited on Sun Mar-19-06 05:01 AM by Douglas Carpenter
but they are all just so annoying and loony. It's like choosing between the pain of an abscess tooth, a bleeding ulcer, a first degree burn or a painful rectal itch.
