Having followed a lot of Penn & Teller recently, and I haven't found a single thing they've said that I disagree with, and more over, everything they have said I agree with (when they're not talking about magic). It's not often I find myself screaming yes yes yes with my clothes on, but these guys do it for me.
They speak out for what is true, not what is popular and will stand their ground against anyone that seeks to push an agenda over the rest of us. They make important points on critical issues on environment

Spreading the word. Personally I'm a extreme moderate. I believe in fighting issues that don't affect me that significantly, if at all, if it means that the extremists aren't the only ones fighting for a cause, because thats when the serious nasty stuff in our history has occurred. So I get some odd reactions when I take a strong stance on moderate issues, but if thats the price we pay to avert the nasty stuff in history repeating itself, then so be it.

Love this choice.
For me - Bill Simmons and Jon Stewart.
I have found the same as you. I agree with everything they say, and disagree with nothing, as if the show was created out of my own head.

Eh, it depends on the topic. Generally speaking, there will always be a place in my heart for Christopher Hitchens. Pause.
You do know that Hitchens was basically a political conservative, right? That's, uhh, that's pretty dissimilar to you...
He was only conservative when it comes to the War in Iraq. Other than that, he's a pretty liberal to moderate and he's an atheist. Things aren't black and white.
Well, based on what I've read of yours, you aren't "liberal to moderate"...You're basically a leftist, which is why it stunned me that you consider Hitchens an intellectual brother, so to speak.
I have dynamic views. Looking at the world through the lens of "left" or "right" is foolish.
Also..."leftist," seriously? Is this the Politico comments section?
It's only foolish to liberals who hate being identified as liberals or leftists. By virtually every measure you're a leftist. That's not a personal attack--I'm pointing out the obvious. Do you prefer the term "progressive"?
Everywhere but WSO TheKing is a moderate (he even sees eye to eye with ANT on some topics). He seems like the last bastion of liberalism here because the number of conservatives far outweighs the number of liberals.

For me it's Andrew Wilkow, who is the flagship radio talk show host on Sirius XM Patriot. He's basically a libertarian leaning conservative Republican, but not a libertarian. The guy articulates my brain's thoughts better than I can even think those thoughts.
Chris Brown
Can't decide: Beyonce Salma Hayek Sofia Vergara Paula Patton
Hahaha.
For me: Trey Parker/Matt Stone (writers of South Park)
God I've been looking for a way to explain my view, I'm stealing "extreme moderate" for future use.
I find myself agreeing with Joe Scarborough on most issues. I might differ on a few points, but on the whole, he is very similar to me politically. Tolerant, but with a focus on fiscal conservatism rather than social issues. Dislikes the Tea Party and OWS, deep respect for checks and balances, not prone to extreme positions, and hates Krugman.
