Grading the Hyper-Partisan Opinion-Makers (Again, An Independent's Perspective)

In no particular order (or should I say, odor?).......... 1) Keith Olbermann - F (a mean-spirited partisanship the likes of which I rarely see).....2) Rush Limbaugh - F (I can't really give Olbermann an F and not this guy).....3) Sean Hannity - F minus (probably the worst of them all - and, plus, he's stupid).....4) Rachel Maddow - D minus (claims not to have an agenda but totally does, laughs at her own stupid jokes, etc.).....5) Bill O'Reilly - C (has seemingly gotten more reasonable in his old age and, yes, he really supports the troops, too).....6) Glenn Beck - D (crazier than shit, occasionally provocative/interesting).....7) Chris Matthews - B (by far the smartest and least predictable of the bunch, definitely makes for good television).....8) Fox and Friends - D (partisan and not particularly bright, but at least they seem to have some fun).....9) Joe Scarborough - B (easily the most reasonable of the conservative hosts, and plus he's on with frigging Mika!!).....10) Ed Schultz - D (a dick, a well-intentioned dick, but, yes, still a frigging dick).....11) Laura Ingraham - F (totally obnoxious - even if I agreed with her I probably still wouldn't like her).....12) Stephanie Miller - B minus (partisan but, yes, adorable, too, and being that I'm a guy....)......................................................................................................P.S. I know that there are others out there; Randi Rhodes, something Levin, Melanie Morgan, etc.. I just don't happen to know them well enough to give them a grade. Sorry. As for Ms. Ann Coulter, I'm probably going to have to take a pass on that one. This, in that I still can't figure out if she's serious or not.
