He's like the magic 8 ball of Obama hating.<br /><br />I'm quick to defend him because I'd hate to see them elevate someone of competence, plus he's so far around the bend I'd miss him if he was gone. Actually I feel the same way about Michelle Bachman - I may go actively work to help her get re-elected. That's a rare, special kind of crazy, that coupled with Michael's rare, special kind of stupid is the best reality show on the air today.<br /><br />Plus, he makes people like Bill Kristol's head explode.
