No doubt, Michael Moore is really gross too.

Just because of their political views?

No, because of their blatant lies, anger, blame, hostility, and rhetoric. It's not illegal, but it's destructive regardless of the political side. There are better ways, more productive ways, but they choose a low-brow way to communicate. Hence, scum.

Bullcrap. If they were leftists doing exactly what you accuse them of, you wouldn't have a problem
in the world with them.

I just told you I don't like Michael Moore for the same reasons. Don't believe me if you want, I have no reason to lie or prove anything.

He ignored that post, I also ripped on Michael Moore, can't stand that obese clown, and his ambush journalism. That stunt he pulled on Charlton Heston was rude, low class, and just plain mean.

I didn't ignore it. Comparing Moore to Limbaugh and Beck is like comparing apples to tennis
rackets.

Ok, if Michael Moore isn't a good example, then name a couple leftists who are doing exactly what Limbaugh and Beck are being accused of, and we'll let you know what we think of them.

If you don't like the artist, pass by the thread. I think that is what most people do.

You are more than welcome to do the same when you don't care for a particular response.

I think that is what most people do

Yep, I would have to agree, attack dog talking heads for sure.

I don't put comedians in the same category. They are there to make people laugh. Rush, Hannity and Beck are also entertainers, but they aren't trying to make people laugh. They use a dangerous and destructive rhetoric to whip people into a hostile frenzy - wrong wrong wrong on all levels. Michael Moore tries to incite anger - that's why he is different than those comedians.

Maher & Colbert

I agree about Maher. He is a pompous ass and is not above distorting the truth. Colbert is pretty good a comedian. Like alloak said, apples and tennis packets. Applies to Maher and Colbert. I would have thought you'd have mentioned Chris Matthews or Lawrence O'Donnell. Both are liberal a-holes, and more like the conservative counterparts Limbaugh and Beck.

Fair enough.....I would add CNN's Don Lemon

Yeah, it comes with the territory. But some are more disingenuous than others.

Some added fare that may lighten this up.

I would agree on Maher, but, IMO, Colbert is doing more of a satiric comedy thing meant to make us laugh at American political theater. He is knowingly over the top for laughs. I think the others mentioned, including Maher, take themselves way too seriously.
