Top Annoyances of 2006

John Hawkins’ no-holds-barred 21 Most Annoying People on the Right in 2006 list at Right Wing News:

11) George Bush: I really hate to ding the President on a list like this, but he showed a level of political incompetence last year that hasn’t been seen since the Carter Administration and that had a lot to do with the drubbing Republicans took in 2006. Moreover, there’s the out-of-control spending, his incredibly obnoxious position on illegal immigration, and his seeming reluctance to get serious about Iran, Syria, North Korea and Muqtada al-Sadr is getting to be a real drag.

Here’s his 20 Most Annoying Liberals list (the Right got 21 because he forgot to add Michael Savage). So many to choose from. I like this one:

Let’s be honest: you could train a monkey to amble into a White House press conference, pick nits out of his hair, and then hold up a sheet with a question on it for the White House Press Secretary to answer. So, there’s nothing special about the people doing that job, but some of them, like David Gregory, are camera hounds who want to make a name for themselves by being obnoxious creeps in front of a room of reporters. So, every so often, when he’s not calling in drunk to the Don Imus show, David Gregory manages to draw a little attention to himself by making a scene at a press conference.

Here’s the type of “journalism” you get from confrontational clowns like David Gregory:

Defining Conversation: Scott McClellan: “Hold on, the cameras aren’t on right now. You can do this later.”

David Gregory: “Don’t accuse me of trying to pose to the cameras. Don’t be a jerk to me personally when I’m asking you a serious question.”

Scott McClellan: “You don’t have to yell.”

David Gregory: “I will yell. If you want to use that podium to try to take shots at me personally, which I don’t appreciate, then I will raise my voice, because that’s wrong.”

Scott McClellan: “Calm down, Dave. Calm down.”

    because he forgot to add Michael Savage

    I’m convinced Savage is fraud. His credentials are real enough, but he’s a liberal 5th columnist.

    His political donations give him away. Like the cops always say - “pay no attention to what they’re saying, watch their hands”.
