Out of all the people with a microphone or a spot on a national newspaper. Who closest resembles you. If you want to pick someone who agrees more adamantly with your bigger concerns; or someone who you agree more overall with. Present day, or atleast had a national voice within the last ten years.
Exclude: Anyone who has run or had an elected position.

[clambake]

so......you're a sponge.

[ElNono]

I really like Glenn Greenwald (http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/glenn-greenwald). I find myself agreeing with a lot of what he writes.

[baseline bum]

:cry This sounds like one of those gotcha questions like the liberal press liked to throw at Palin :cry

[Oh, Gee!!]

all of them?

[LnGrrrR]

I like Glenn Greenwald and Andrew Sullivan, though I disagree with both on various occasions.

[clambake]

pick anyone you like.......and tim russert could tear them down.

[spursncowboys]

Back in 05 it was Bill Kristol. Now it's usually G. Will. Then again I don't really read as much op-eds as I used to.
I still like Brett Humes when he's on.

[clambake]

humes is good for a laugh.

[DMC]

He could tear down a sweet potato as well. Eventually it tore him down.

[clambake]

excellent fat joke.

[spursncowboys]

I liked T. Russert. He was the only guy to ask the tough questions and then keep hounding. He was excellent at his job.

His son is a joke and a perfect example of cronyism

[clambake]

is he fat?

dmc is working on his act.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Cornel West, except for his religious bullshit.

[TeyshaBlue]

Pee Wee Herman tbh

[DarrinS]

Jake Tapper

[DarrinS]

Cornel West, except for his religious bullshit.

Ick

Thanks for your input.

Can you show me that poll that says Romney was gonna win?

[DarrinS]

Wtf does that have to do with Cornel West?

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Wtf does that have to do with Cornel West?
it has something to do with how much I value your opinion

[Juggity]

Chris Hitchens, late career (don't agree with his views on Iraq obviously)

Matt Taibbi

Ta-Nehisi Coates

[spursncowboys]

Alot of Brits on here.

[DarrinS]

Seeing as you admire Cornel West, I actually find this reassuring.

[DarrinS]

I like Glenn Greenwald and Andrew Sullivan, though I disagree with both on various occasions.

Andrew Sullivan was obsessed with Palin's baby

[clambake]

Andrew Sullivan was obsessed with Palin's baby

this made you sad.

poor thing.

[DarrinS]

this made you sad.

poor thing.

No, it makes Sullivan a tard

[EVAY]

I honestly do like Brooks. He always seems rational to me, even when I disagree with him. I also like both Taibbi brothers (I assume they are brothers). I like some others but I can't remember their names right now...like the guy who writes for the WSJ but appears on the Washington Week show on friday nights often. There are a couple of people on that show that I think are reasonable but since I only see the show on replay I always fast forward past the introductions.

And I rather like Joe Scarborough.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Seeing as you admire Cornel West, I actually find this reassuring.

Seeing how much you admire people who predicted Romney would win, I'm also reassured by how much I disagree with you on.

[EVAY]

I liked T. Russert. He was the only guy to ask the tough questions and then keep hounding. He was excellent at his job.

His son is a joke and a perfect example of cronyism

I agree with this about each of them.

[LnGrrrR]

Andrew Sullivan was obsessed with Palin's baby

Yeah, he sometimes goes off on a tangent, and stays on that tangent way too long, but at least he is honest with his readers, and I haven't seen him flipflop without an explanation.

[DarrinS]

Seeing how much you admire people who predicted Romney would win, I'm also reassured by how much I disagree with you on.

This is patently untrue.

Nate Silver also predicted a Seahawks-Patriots Superbowl, btw, so I guess he's better with binary outcomes.

Yeah Scarborough does a good job of picking his battles with all the liberals. I enjoy watching him in the morning.

Yeah, using stats to predict the NFL playoffs (one of the most unpredictable things in sports) is pretty dumb. I know that you only post in the NFL forum when the Jets are good, but I've said as much in there.

How did we go from Cornel West to Nate Silver?

[Clipper Nation]

Tom Woods

[Clipper Nation]

I also like Glenn Greenwald for his willingness to expose and criticize our insane foreign policy, tbh....

The NFL forum is full of tards. You brought up polling data.

[Nbadan]

Paul Krugman and Nate Silver

[Winehole23]

Sully flip flopped on Iraq, big time.

not sure his excuses for it went over too well with the antiwar left he characterized as decadent and a fifth column for terrorism in 2003.
