Worst Conservatives: Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly
Worst Liberals: Al Sharpton, Melissa Harris-Perry, Chris Hayes.

I know I copied some names from other posts but they really do deserve a second vote.

Would you please allow me ...[text shortened]... ated on his half glass of white wine, he gets all crazy and digs out his Karen Carpenter albums.
Sasquatch, your sense of humor in designating "Bob from the Five" in the Best Liberals Category isn't wasted.

Where do you suppose talk radio host Mark Levin belongs when he does television cameos with Neil Cavuto?

"Worst conservative: Anne Coulter (shrill)"

I personally think that most conservatives aren't shrill enough, and try to respond to shrill attacks from the left politely. David Horowitz has just released a new book advocating that conservatives adopt the tactics of the left simply because they are shouted down and attacked routinely and never respond in kind.

Best Conservatives: Charles Krauthammer. Liberals: Evan Bayh. Both are focused and unemotional.

Worst Conservatives: Bill O'Reilly (self absorbed). Liberals: Juan Williams or Bob Beckel (uninformed).

Your take?[/b]
Bill O'Reilly said he was Libertarian not Conservative. Maybe that is why he seems to be the worst Conservative to you, since he is not a Conservative.

Actions speak far louder than words. O'Reilly also told John Stewart that he was a registered independent; to which John Stewart replied "Yeah, we never know which way you're gonna go... will it be with the Republicans or the conservatives? "

Isn't his frequent guest Jesse Waters Libertarian in his views?

I do not know about Jesse Waters. He just seems to bring a little humor to the show. I think John Stossel is the best example of a Libertarian guest that O'Reilly sometimes has on his show.

The two best (in the US) Should surely be:
- Jon Stewart
- Stephen Colbert

All the rest, especially conservatives, are annoying as hell.

Not yet. But it could happen.
