Title: Who is your favorite right wing commentator or pundit who is regularly on TV?
Post by: The Night Owl on January 18, 2008, 11:45:57 AM
I will start...

Joe Scarborough

Edit: I changed the Subject heading. I meant ask people to list their favorite right wing political commentators or pundits.

I have no idea.  I do not watch such things on my television machine.

Dennis Miller on O'Reilly

Dennis Miller is, according to what he has said, a lefty on most issues. That said, I am probably the only DUer who thinks that Miller is actually funny. Yes, he drives me nuts with his support of Mr. Bush, but that doesn't change my overall opinion of the guy.

Dennis Miller in small doses, he can grate on my nerves. Bill Bennett fan here.

I see names on here of people I admire.  I do not think of them as television people, though.  I read there words in print or on the internet.  I hear them on the radio.  I never think of television as a source of information. 

Ann Coulter is a jewel.  Dennis Miller is fine in small doses.  Michelle Malkin is remarkable and very brave.  Ben Stein is underexposed.  Pat Sajak is an unknown conservative star.  Rush Limbaugh is the industry standard.  This nation owes more to Rush Limbaugh than even he knows.

I'm not really into television commentators, although I do like Michelle Malkin and sometimes, when I am in a strange  mood, Bill O'Reilly (I love when he reads e-mails from his detractors... very amusing segment of his show).

  I prefer local talk-radio hosts, like Martha Zoller (broadcasts out of Gainesville, GA).

Glenn Beck.

I'd watch Michelle Malkin or Mark Steyn if they had shows but they show up pretty often and are great when they do.

On edit:
Good stuff from Steyn on You Tube about our Canadian relationship, Fred Thompson and other issues. (good sound synch eh?)

I don't watch (or care for) the TV pundits since I usually listen to the radio.

If you were to ask who my favorite people on the radio are, I'd have to say Limbaugh (pretty much the standard-bearer of the industry), Mike McConnell, and Michael Savage.

Michelle Malkin, Ann Coulter, Glen Beck, Sean Hannity, and Peggy Noonan, eventhough she's not on TV as much as the elections of the past.  She's a Wall STreet Journalist now...but was a Reagan speechwriter.

I like and enjoy Glenn Beck, both on Radio and TV. I DO like Britt Hume. O'Reilly is ok, sometimes. My favorite radio show commentator is Jason Lewis. (he fills in for Rush sometimes) He's up here in the Twin Cities again. I like Savage upon occasion, but when he reminisces, he loses my interest. Mitch McConnell isn't too bad, either. Another local radio show personality I like is Dan Conry

I think that Glenn Beck would be better if he would stop trying to force comedy into his material.

I love humor in politics. For instance, I think that Rush Limbaugh is often very funny. Humor seems to come naturally to Limbaugh. Humor does not seem come naturally to Glenn Beck. Whenever I hear Glenn Beck trying to be funny, I always get the sense that he is trying too hard.

As you'll see the more you know me, I believe NOTHING is off limits to being ridiculed for a good laugh.  But, that being said, The Daily Show isn't about a good laugh.  It's about Jon Stewart getting 30 minutes to spew his liberal bullshit under the guise of comedy.  I watched it a few times when it first came on, he's just not funny to me.

I disagree. I believe that comedy, not politics, drives The Daily Show. If pushing a political agenda were the goal of TDS, then the show would never poke fun at Democrats or liberals. TDS often pokes fun at Democrats and liberals.

Just out of curiosity, can you list any lefty comedians who you find funny?

And yes, the Daily Show is nothing more than a unpaid campaign propaganda for the DNC.

Jon Stewart is a smug pissant unfunny hack whose core audience is college aged dorks between 18-25 years old.

He tries to have it both ways; he passes himself off as knowledgeable pundit and author but when he's taken to task for his views he suddenly acts like he's only a satirist not to be taken seriously.
