Thank you, I'd forgotten what paper does that column.

 

[arnisador]

Certainly a lot to agree with there...

 

[Bob Hubbard]

Facinating Captain. I find their selections for #1 and #2 to be completely logical. :spock:

Well I for one disagree with selection #6... I didn't care two bits about Anna Nicole's death. She was a bimbo that should've taken better care of herself and her kids.

 

[crushing]

Glenn Beck is on the list, but not the much more loathsome Anderson Cooper or Nancy Grace? At least Beck was somewhat humorous that one time I paid attention to his show.

I'll give you Nancy Grace, but what did poor Anderson Cooper do to get lumped in with that motley crew?

does it help my case that i dont know who half those people are?

Blasphemy!

41. Chuck Norris
Charges: Only famous for knowing Bruce Lee. Churning out puerile "action" bilge for 30 years. Skill as martial artist greatly exaggerated. Kitsch value wearing thin. Total Home Gym®. Walker, Texas Ranger once let a little girl battle armed gangsters, because she had the power of belief in God. Doesn't understand evolution, despite access to mirrors.

He is very similar to Nancy Grace with his over-the-top dramatics. But, to be honest, I haven't really seen him since his hurricane episodes, so maybe he has gotten better.

Wow, I would hope so. Nancy Grace is loathsome, especially in her assumption of guilt for every single accused. Even when it drives them to suicide.

I like this one:

13. Anne Coulter
Charges: A skeletal freak who hates the world and lives to anger people into buying her books. Says Jews need to be "perfected," as if Christians are in better shape. Is against her own right to vote. Called John Edwards a ******, when really he's just a little swishy. Is about as sexy as a preying mantis. If Coulter were a man, she'd never be allowed on TV.
Exhibit A: "****** isn't offensive to gays; it's got nothing to do with gays."
Sentence: Forced marriage to Osama bin Laden.

... um ... and this one ...

9. You
Charges: You believe in freedom of speech, until someone says something that offends you. You suddenly give a damn about border integrity, because the automated voice system at your pharmacy asked you to press 9 for Spanish. You cling to every scrap of ******** you can find to support your ludicrous belief system, and reject all empirical evidence to the contrary. You know the difference between patriotism and nationalism -- it's nationalism when foreigners do it. You hate anyone who seems smarter than you. You care more about zygotes than actual people. You love to blame people for their misfortunes, even if it means screwing yourself over. You still think Republicans favor limited government. Your knowledge of politics and government are dwarfed by your concern for Britney Spears' children. You think buying Chinese goods stimulates our economy. You think you're going to get universal health care. You tolerate the phrase "enhanced interrogation techniques." You think the government is actually trying to improve education. You think watching CNN makes you smarter. You think two parties is enough. You can't spell. You think $9 trillion in debt is manageable. You believe in an afterlife for the sole reason that you don't want to die. You think lowering taxes raises revenue. You think the economy's doing well. You're an idiot.
Exhibit A: You couldn't get enough Anna Nicole Smith coverage.
Sentence: A gradual decline into abject poverty as you continue to vote against your own self-interest. Death by an easily treated disorder that your health insurance doesn't cover. You deserve it, chump.

The top two set my rockets soaring! *applause*

Chuck is one of those so bad it's funny sort of actors... actually, I don't know if "actor" applies. Wait, I understand now!

Chuck Norris doesn't act, his characters act like him.

The sad bit is that that's probably true. He has a dramatic range that spans the entire alphabet from A to, well, B. No director would bother trying to do anything but a typecasting with him.

A to B? No,he gets from A to almost Ad...

You're not kidding -- I met him a couple of times, and he *is* Walker, Texas Ranger. A very cool guy, but I don't think his acting is "acting."

"Chuck Norris will be played by Walker"
