You’ve summed it up nicely. Any man that could find any redeeming qualities in Whoopi Goldberg is a loser in my book.

Rush Limbaugh is popular because he reflects and gives a voice to beliefs already held by people who don’t possess his unique abilities.

Ted Danson.

Isn’t he the guy who said twenty years ago that “The oceans will be dead in ten years!”?

Did he not say in the early ‘90s that the polar ice caps would melt by 2010? Another useful idiot.

Ted Danson is "Hollywood elite?! Maybe about 20 years ago.

I always pictured him as the celebrity guy in Michael Crichton's book "State of Fear".

Remember back in 1988 Ted Danson said we only had ten years to save the oceans. There was nothing to be done about the oceans. Nobody could do anything. Nobody did do anything and the oceans are still there and Danson is still a moron.
