Pundit thread, yo.
Your favorite, your least favorite, and why. Feel free to stack your most beloved pundie up against someone else's.
For example: Anne Coulter is a raving lunatic, BUT she would trounce Keith Olbermann in a wet T-shirt contest.
Post away.

I'm not hugely into puppet theater myself, so I don't have all that much interest in pundits. I guess my list would be as follows:
Keith Olbermann, because I so dig the pinstripes and he watches all the same movies and tv shows I do, so I get all his jokes.
Chris Matthews, because it's fun to see how Charlie Brown grew up (go look at him and think about it), and it's hilarious to watch the faces of his guests when he gets on one of his real good ranting rolls and starts saying utterly disconnected shit that no one but him can figure out how it's connected to the topic. Of course, he also often says some truly dumbass crap, and that's annoying.
Fareed Zachariah because he is very, very smart and not loud.
And as for Ann Coulter, please, please, do not wet that t-shirt. I really do not want to see those dessicated hag teats. Please.

Threads such as these make me re-appreciate anarchism. Down with the state!

I like groups of pundits, preferably with Bill Maher in the center. *nod*

She'd also trounce either Jaws with regards to Pounds Per Square Inch of biting power.
Pundits, as a whole, disgust me. Especially the ones who support candidates I support, or positions on issues that I support, etc, because they're usually even worse than the other several sides.

He makes me laugh :)
But occasionally you get an idiot like Will.I.Am on the show and then I have to turn my TV off and quickly repress the memory.

No has said 'Physco Killer' yet so that gets my vote.

You may ask yourself what is that beautiful house?
You may ask yourself where does that highway go to?
You may ask yourself am I right, am I wrong?
You may say to yourself, my god, what have I done?

Well now that I have permission... can I ask what this has to do with anything?

Not everybody was alive and kicking in the eighties, New Limacon. They haven't seen the things that we've seen.

If we're talking sheer pundit skills, O'Reilly is sort of like the Pundit Standard Template. I mean, he's a complete prima donna, cuts people off, preys on fear and tries to stir up paranoia in his audience. And, lets face it, if it weren't for the fact that so many people hang on his every word, his show would be HILARIOUS.

This was a triumph.
I'm making a note here.
HUGE SUCCESS.
Will she serve cake at the end of the show? :p
My favorite talking head is the one from the Wizard of Oz. My least favorite talking head is Zordon... such a rip off of WoO. The scariest of all the talking heads is a beholder.
