I miss Real Time. I bet he would have a field day with Mike Huckabee.

[scooterbug44]

I love it! Agree w/ all the selections and love the pithy comments! :rofl:

[tebo]

How did Dick Cheney get left out? Maybe the list needs to be longer.

I miss comedy and political humor....I miss John Stewart and Stephen Colbert.

[hnooe]

Glad to see Maher come down on the Congressional Democrats as well, that was an unexpected, but correct assessment!

They seriously need to settle the writer's strike. I am woefully uninformed without my Daily Show! :(

He forgot the most important and biggest one....Bill Mahr.

HE FORGOT ONE!!!!!

He forgot to list the parents of Brittany and Jamie Lynn Spears for being the world's worst parents.....

Lynn Spears, Brittany' mother had to put her forthcoming book on Christian Parenting (for real, no joke) "on hold" while she does damage control on her recently unmarried, impregnated 16 year old daughter and the continual Brittany downward spiral.....:lol:

[Andy A.]

It is really a shame that Jamie Spears has become pregnant, to everyone's chagrine. However, much worse things could happen to her. Because she is in the public eye, everyone knows about her "mistake". Too bad. Especially since so many others are so perfect.

Tell me about it. Fark can only take someone so far.

Just an observation...but there are no women on this list!:floor:

[hnooe]

Well we could add Dana Perino, Bush new Press Seccretary, the bimbo who is now the face of free world on behalf of President Bush, who, as reported last week, "knew nothing" about the Cuban Missle Crisis, one of the major post World War 2 world altering events of our time!

:clap::clap:Aint that the truth.....

Not that I don't agree with some of the people on the list but isn't it amazing how this idiot takes himself so seriously?

akin to Rush...

[seacliffes]

Surprising that anyone puts any credibility in a paid clown's list of anything.

To quote Shakespeare.."Many a truth are told in jest."

[seacliffes]

He also wrote fiction......

[hnooe]

He also wrote fiction......

"Truthier" words were never spoken, you are right!

Although, I feel that maybe the political comedy of a Bill Mahr, John Stewart, Colbert, etc will not only make us laugh, but will help rescue us from the tragedy of todays political "truths."

More of the clown's idiotic commentary:

In 1993, Maher found a format that fit his "talents": Politically Incorrect debuted on Comedy Central, with Maher and celebrity guests discussing political issues of the day. Only six days after the 9/11 attacks, Maher and the East Indian Dinesh D'Souza (http://www.nndb.com/people/810/000049663/) had this conversation on the show: D'SOUZA: Bill, there's another piece of political correctness I want to mention. And, although I think Bush has been doing a great job, one of the themes we hear constantly is that the people who did this are cowards.
MAHER: Not true.
D'SOUZA: Not true. Look at what they did. First of all, you have a whole bunch of guys who are willing to give their life. None of them backed out. All of them slammed themselves into pieces of concrete.
MAHER: Exactly.
D'SOUZA: These are warriors. And we have to realize that the principles of our way of life are in conflict with people in the world. And so -- I mean, I'm all for understanding the sociological causes of this, but we should not blame the victim. Americans shouldn't blame themselves because other people want to bomb them. MAHER: But also, we should -- we have been the cowards lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, it's not cowardly. You're right.

[scooterbug44]

All that is being discussed in that interview is that it is not accurate to characterize people willing to die for a cause as cowards.

It was not a defense of terrorists or 9/11, but a criticism of Bush's rhetoric.

One of the reasons I enjoyed his program was that you heard many viewpoints and opinions, not just the politically correct ones!

I have to admit sometime my buddy Bill comes right "up to the line," without crossing it, and I understand exactly what he was saying in this instance.

Then again, it helps us all see exactly where the line is in the first place. At times, if you have to in fact "cross the line" to get your point across, so be it! I have to even admire the comedian Ann Coulter in the same repect.

But it's too bad she is not even close to being funny.

[drunkkenartist]

I think he is right on the mark about everyone on this list. How can one possibly dispute it?
Bill Mahr however, is not a clown, he is a comedian.
Ann Coulter is not a comedian, she's that other "C" word that I can't use on this website.
I don't think he takes himself seriously, but some people should, especially those that fall in that 25%.

And I can't wait for him to lay into Huckabee. This is a very dangerously narrow minded man that makes Bush look informed.

Goddess help us all.

:roll:

Happy New Year Drunkkenartist!!!! May the creative "spirits" reign supreme for you in 2008!

you can't handle the truth!

Could you expand on this?

It is really a shame that Jamie Spears has become pregnant, to everyone's chagrine. However, much worse things could happen to her. Because she is in the public eye, everyone knows about her "mistake". Too bad. Especially since so many others are so perfect.

So Bill Maher is a big fat idiot, but Jamie Spears is "misguided"? I'm not following your logic here.

[hnooe]

Thanks gayboi, my bruva, I like the way you think!
