Ten on Tuesday

10 Political Figures, and What You Think of Them

Bill Clinton-Easily the most charismatic statesman since JFK, if not more so. This man could sell you a plate of shit and have you asking for thirds. If any administration knew what was good for them they'd appoint this man Secretary of State 4 Life.

Lamar Alexander-During the 2000 election this was the man I wanted to be President. Sadly he was only third on the Republican side and hadn't turned to the dark side back then. The only candidate that made any sense and seemed human to me at the time. I think he could have done great things for this country.

Tom DeLay-One of the craziest and crookest men in America and somehow someway this sack of steaming shit is still not in prison. We need some kind of strong and lethal prosecutor to send him to jail, Big Bubba needs a bunkmate.

Mike Gravel-I'm telling you folks, I am in love with this crazy old bastard. It is a crime that CNN has taken him off their debates. He rose like ten points after the first democratic debate. I think he is what this country wants, a no nonsense, no bullshit, straight talker who will tell you what is on his mind.

Dennis Kucinich-The Ohio Pixie did quite well in the Democratic debate, but sadly will never be a real contender because he doesn't look the part. Ever since the creation of the television you almost have to look the part to be elected. This man could have played an elf on Lord of the Rings, but has wonderful ideas none the less.

Nero-He always got a bad wrap due to Christian writers and his persecutions of Christians. He improved relations with the greeks, suppressed the British revolt, made peace with the Parthian Empire, built theaters, promoted athletic games and was loved by his people before and after his death. Though he is usually taught in a bad light since the Christians at the time based many of their prophecies on Nero as they saw him as a bad bad man. Much has been said about Rome burning and Nero, but hey who knows without us being there.

Condi Rice-I don't care if she is a fellow Browns Backer, I can't stand this lying bitch. Her and her "husband" have done more harm to this country then any President before them, not to mention the countless number of lives, Iraqi and American, that have been lost because they're nothing but a bunch of cowboys.

Al Gore-A robot no more, he has taken up his quest about global warming and has really transformed himself. We all remember in 2000 how he seemed wooden, robotic, just way too uptight. Now he is fighting for something, seems passionate, and has the look of a man I could vote for.

Barak Obama-The man definitely has some charisma doesn't he? During the democratic debates, least to me, he seemed to be the only one up there that truly had a presidential presence about himself, a certain charisma that the greatest have. It's not always about knowing all the answers or having the best ideas, sometimes it's about leading and having the charisma that makes people want to follow.

John McCain-In the not so distant past I used to respect this man, but that time has come and gone. With the desire to not be denied the Presidency, he has given up his morals, his "straight talk" and his ground to the religious right in the hopes that he somehow will be elected President. I find it sad that a man, who if he was just himself and not this hollow shell, could win the Presidency if he DIDN'T do this course of action has been fooled into this path.

10 Idols/Heroes When You Were a Kid

10.Indiana Jones-Cool, brash, and he had a whip. He fought Nazis and chased all around the world looking for historical artifacts, ya damn right.
9.Ryan Sandberg-My favorite baseball player who was not a member of the Oakland A's. In my opinion the best 2nd baseman ever to play the game.
8.Mike Singletary-The best middle linebacker of the 80s, maybe of the last thirty years, he drew to me because he was an cerebral linebacker who studied and relied more on his intelligence then his athletic gifts.
7.Dave Stewart-The ace pitcher for the Oakland A's I was absolutely obsessed with his fork ball, still am.
6.Bernie Kosar-Ask a Browns fan when the change into contender came about and many would say it was when we drafted Bernie. I mean, it's Bernie, he is still treated like a God by Browns fans.
5.Rickey Henderson-How can I say anything that tops what he all told us when he broke the stolen base record?
4.Ronnie Lott-Without a doubt still my favorite football player of all time. Damn, could that man hit, and toughness? There may have been few who were tougher then Ronnie Lott.
3.The Nature Boy Ric Flair-Simply put, the greatest of all time. What little kid didn't want to be a wheelin dealin, jet flying, Limousin ridin, kiss stealin son of a gun...even if we had no idea what it meant at the time.
2.General George Patton-I grew up listening to the opening speech from the movie Patton, hell I may be able to quote you it now. Greatest American general of all time, he ends WWII if he was in charge at least a year early.
1.Admiral James T. Kirk-Come on, he had his own spaceship, defeated Khan, went back in time to save the whales and found time to woo alien ladies from all over the galaxy, can you spell Pimp any other way?
