Most annoying left-wing ugly male propagandist
Why do the righties look better than the lefties?
Those two is all you could come up with for ugly guys on the left?
What about Alan Colmes, James Carville, Paul Begala?

My vote is for James Carville.

Ditto.
The three you mentioned are spinners, not propagandists.
Heck, calling Alan Colmes a spinner is pushing it. I think he lets the DNC do his thinking for him. (Yes, I'm also convinced that Hannity lets the RNC do his thinking.)
And they aren't that ugly.

Damn! She should sue her doctor for going crazy with the botox like that. I'm suprised she's not paralyzed from the neck down.

Rush is a spinner, not a propagandist. Same thing goes for Susan Estritch
Ann Coulter sure looks a lot better than Michael Moore.

Could you define "spin" vs "propoganda" for me? I'm a little fuzzy. I though spin was a tool of propaganda....(serious question, not baiting)
Spin means putting the facts in the best light for your side and/or the worst light for your opposition.
With propaganda, you make things up in addition to spinning.

Wow - lets judge people not on their intelligence or stance but on how they look! Lets have a beauty contest!
This just goes to show how shallow some people can be.

Ann Coulter looks like a famine victim. But I suppose some people like the "skinny, blonde, borderline anorexic" look!

OAW

This is a humor thread. Anyone taking it seriously will be shot.

So tell me, exactly what did Chomsky and/or Moore make up?
What's wrong with Noam Chomsky

He looks like me in 40 years. He looks like my grandpa 20 years before he died.
I think he's a normal looking older man.

We've discussed these things many times on the MacNN Forums before. I am not retyping what I've typed many times before.
Go to Salon, a liberal political Internet magazine, and search for Moore and Chomsky. You'll find plenty of complaints from its liberal editors about what the two have written and said.

Salon is a joke. From what I was able to read there without paying their $35 membership fee, they had plenty of complaints (many seeming motivated by jealousy), but no hard evidence.

Agreed. 2 years ago they had a good thing going. Now it is just crap. Not that it really matters though, they will probably be out of biz by the end of the year.

Although I agree with what I think you were trying to say, I'm not sure that's the best choice of words, with respect to propagandists.
I'd put it more like this. Spinners report the facts, but manipulate the wording of those facts as suits their particular agenda. Most reporters are spinners, one way or another.
Propagandists, on the other hand, write original material. They also tend to engage in spinning while backing up their materials, but that's not their main focus. Most essayists fall under this category.
