Which Journalistic Giant Would You Most Like To See Run For Prez?

[VX250]

I go with Mr O.

 

[The Yankee]

God, I'm torn between Larry King, who could cause our enemies to voluntarily kill themselves after his umpteenth interview with Paris Hilton and the like, and Walter Cronkite, who I think has a hidden violent streak (pent up outrage from this decade and prior ones) that could play really well in our favor, if harnessed.

 

[Stewbert 08]

It comes down to Stewart v Colbert.

Cronkite - dead right?
King - terrible flatulence problem, bad dress sense, schmuck
O'Reilly - the kid on the playground who would have been a bully if he wasn't a weakling. Pinhead.
Ron Burgundy - a shade too aggressive for the Presidency. Right suits tho.
Harris Faulkner - who?

 

[amadeus]

Not the first three morons.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

America could do with a president with Steward's attitude (his off-show attitude that is).

 

[CaptainF]

Ronnie B-man FTW.

 

[Japanrocks12]

The third moron, who is less of a moron than the other six

 

[On Yer Flour]

I wish I had a magick wand so I could turn Bill O'Reilly lustfully, maddeningly, exhibitionistically gay.

 

[Elta]

Ronnie B-man FTW.

Seconded, Any man who was in the greatest fight scene of all time gets my vote.

 

[ArneHD]

Jon Almaas.

 

[GeneralZed]

whats up with olbermann?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

His sugarlevel and bloodpressure.

 

[CIVPhilzilla]

Colbert all the way.

 

[Atlas14]

Colbert for sure

 

[Photi]

Amy Goodman.

 

[bhsup]

Where is Cynthia Tucker and Molly whatsherface from Texas?

 

[GrandAdmiral]

This was hard for me. Stewart or Colbert? I picked Colbert because his speech in front of the president. He's proven his strength. Plus I might not be able to look at Stewart with a straight face in any serious situation.

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Aaah you should have put that satanic lady on there. Anne something....

 

[Stewbert 08]

Not the first three morons.

Amigo, I really think my generation needs to stage an intervention on your behalf. You are so out of touch with your own cohort's popular culture. We can't let you grow up to be the kind of bitter, middle-aged bald-yet-mustached man, who (in his current incarnation) spends his spare time putting up posters with statistics about how schools have gone down the drain since they took prayer out and put condoms in. (I guess your generation of Angry White Men will be talking about how Comedy Central ruined democracy.)

Colbert and Stewart are geniuses of hilarity, and your obnoxious bellyaching doesn't diminish their wit a jot.

Hunter Thompson, if he wasn't decomposing now....


oh wait, he was cremated via fireworks...well, in any event, he would have made a great choice in one piece...
