...or edit: 25 reasons why the Republicans should shut the fuck up...

http://www.buffalobeast.com/?p=1645

...or watching your heroes crash and burn, sucks.

What do I mean by that? Incidentally, this list slapped me silly by putting Bill Maher
somewhere in the 20-10 section. At first I was aghast, until I saw this:

"A swine flu shot is the worst thing you can do."

Really, Bill? Really? The worst? Goddamit. No... just no.

I hope Glenn Beck is on it.

Bill Maher needs to be kicked in the sternum by a horse.

It's also kinda lame to assume Glenn Beck's idiotic ramblings make him more loathsome than the guy who murdered people in Fort Hood. This list fails for that.

I've a special disdain for Bill Maher, cause he's a retarded athiest. Its like being a traitor to your cause.

Posted: Jan 29 2010 02:49 pm

Yeah, Bill MAher doesn't really understand that by undertaking the cause of Atheism with such vigor, he's ironically turned it into its own religion which is exactly what he's trying to rail against.

What I really don't understand is why these guys have never attacked George Carlin with these lists. Moore, Maher, Olberman; none of these guys would be who they are if it wasn't for Carlin. Maher has specifically cited Carlin as an influence for his atheism and Carlin has appeared on Real Time numerous times, and Carlin, the person who says he doesn't trust any news source whatsoever, specifically went on Countdown and told Keith verbatim "this is the best news show on TV."

It's almost as if Beast is sticking to attacking the middleman, which is usally the opposite of how they work. Normally they don't fuck around.

Overall...eh. I do hate Glen Beck and a lot of assholes on there, but Obama? You're putting him in the same category as serious idiots, hatemongers, and murderers? Rolling Eyes

(I did get a chuckle out of "YOU" being on there though.)

Also Robo, I have to say I agree with Glen Beck being waaaaay over Hassan. Hassan was an idiot and a tool, but Glen Beck is a true hatemonger--his kind of rhetoric *creates* people like Hassan, and that's far, far worse.*

*Note that I'm not linking Beck and Hassan; I just mean the way Beck talks helps create and fuel hate-crazed lunatics. Hassan was a different kind of hate-crazed lunatic who was inspired by a different kind of hatemonger.

Carlin was funny. Maher isn't.

Waaaay? Beck is only two entries higher! Laughing

Addendum: Never mind. I meant Hasan. Nidal Hasan.

Oh, shut up.

And I'm nowhere on Val's list. I'm not sure whether I should be honored or insulted.

Posted: Jan 29 2010 05:20 pm

Sweet... I'm not on Valds list either! Very Happy

I was scrolling through the memberlist and I guess your name doesn't stand out. No offense meant.

I'm also somewhat surprised that even though Jeff Dunham is in the list, he's only
given lip service rather than his own entry. I actually like Dunham (or at least I like
Spark of Insanity) but he's been getting so much hate this year it's ridiculous.

Because most people think his entire act is mocking anyone who isn't a white christian.

Achmed The Dead Terrorist: "How bout I kill the Jews?"

Jeff: "No."

ATDT: "I'm just kidding, I would not kill the Jews. I would throw a penny between two of them and watch them fight to the death. I did the same thing with two priests but I tossed in a small boy."

ON ANOTHER NOTE THE COMMENT ABOUT OBAMA WAS PRETTY ACCURATE AND NON BIASED

And how many countless numbers of comics acts are comprised of mocking whitey, or christians, or other races, does it not apply to them cause they are white or not (George Lopez, Dave Chappelle, Lisa Lampanelli, Katt Williams, Dat Phan, Chris Rock,etc. etc. etc.) offense over racial bits is bullshit, everyone does it, there shouldn't be a double standard, it's fucking comedy, these overly sensitive assholes should wash the sand out of their vaginas.

Don't try to turn this into a political correctness debate. JRA asked why people are hating on Jeff Dunham and that is the reasons people give.

Quote:

Dunham does concede that he’s extra-sensitive to one of his largest constituencies: the conservative “country crowd.” “That’s why I don’t pick on basic Christian-values stuff,” he told me. “Well, I also don’t like to, because that’s the way I was brought up.” He then stopped himself short and said: “Oh, boy. I’m walking into something here.”

I wasn't trying to, I was just interjecting why I think it's horseshit, it wasn't my intention to derail the topic at hand, my apologies. Carry on.

Everyone knows that Southern Protestants don't consider Catholics to be Christian. It's them who aren't real Christians. You know, the ones who are always whining about how gays are going to burn in hell and women who have abortions are going to burn in hell and God hates this and God hates that. Apparently they forgot that Christ is love. Hell, some of those morons don't even consider Joel Osteen to be a real Christian because he spends all his time talking about God's great love for us rather than how you'll burn in a lake of fire if you miss even one Sunday of church.

Also, this list fails for three reasons:

1. Does not include David Letterman
2. Includes Michael Jackson
3. Includes convenient scapegoat Jay Leno over Jeff Zucker, the douchebag responsible for what happened.

this list is like the most lol-worthy thing i have read about 2009, and not in a 'hilarious' way like

'i seriously can't believe there are actually people that write like this'
