I’ve opened up comment registration temporarily for those of you who’ve been wanting to join.

Go here to sign up.

And welcome aboard!

If you run into problems, e-mail comment moderator Rick Moran at mmdotcomcomments-at-gmail.com

Rick tells me that those of you who are AOL users should try to register using a different browser. We’ve run into problems with AOL browser/registration for some reason.

Here’s some fodder for the newbies and oldies…Right Wing News polled bloggers on their “favorite people on the right.” Check out the list. Thanks to those who put in a good word for me. It’s nice to get some non-spittin’ love. :)

Who would you have chosen?

    I would like to share the sentiments of those who have already commented…thank you for opening up registration!
    To answer the question and this is not me sucking up, I would have chosen Michelle Malkin hands down. Rush and Ann coming in at a close second and third, respectively.

    Woohoo!

    As to your question, the only one on the list that I wouldn’t have put quite so high is Ann Coulter. I still like her and listen to her, but I think she often seeks confrontation… sometimes it starts looking like the Jerry Springer Show.

    I think I would also put Brit Hume and Mary Katherine Ham much higher than Honorable Mention.

    I am tired of the way presidential candidates are selected. Two years of campaigning with candidates of both parties seeking votes in the primaries from extremists, then the candidates run to the center at the general election, which is still over ONE YEAR away. The primary law really sucks. I would prefer the old way of selecting candidates: conventions held 4 months before the general election which gives candidates time to campaign with less burnout on those like you and me who have to endure the mind numbing constant campaigning.

    Two way tie for me between Malkin and Savage. Both have become a way of life for me.

    Savage didn’t even make honorable mention? Scratching my head on that one. I understand he’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but c’mon!

    Savage has a really bad temper. I think it gets him into trouble. MM has a bad temper, however she’s cute when she’s mad!!!!!!!

    In my list MM is numero uno. El Rushbo is numero dos. Hannity is fired!!!!!!!(After sucking up to Fonzie Rivera(in a collegial way).Dick Cheney should replace Newt Gingrinch on the list. I wish I would have been there, when the VP told Senator Layhee to bleep-bleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Now, in the spirit of things, I have put together my Top 10 list. Remember…

    …The goal was to get bloggers to choose the people they personally like &/or respect the most on the right.

    1. Rush Limbaugh
    2. Michelle Malkin
    3. Laura Ingraham
    4. Thomas Sowell
    5. Newt Gingrich
    6. Neal Boortz
    7. Walter Williams
    8. Mary Katherine Ham
    9. Ann Coulter
    10. Glenn Beck

    Each has their own strengths and weeknesses in my mind but any of them is a worthy opponent of the Left.

    3. Laura Ingraham
    4. Rush
    5. Newt
    6. Mary Katherine

    Johnny D, I’m looking at your list. While I agree that Rush is conservative, I can only take him in small doses - his ego is too much for me. Michelle is tops as is Laura. They both have intellect, communications ability, and a pleasant manner. To me Ann Coulter is counter productive because of her style. If one of the goals is to convince non conservatives why they should be conservatives, then Ann just drives them away with her shrill speak. I also like
    Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly. I respect Shawn Hannity, but if I have to hear him say ” You’re a Great American” one more time, I’ll scream. It just gets old after a while.

    I also like Newt for his conservative ideas.

    Michelle Malkin, I think Newt makes alot of sense, and he is intelligent, Lou Dobbs. I like commentators who are smart and who come out swinging.

    My husband is unreasonably fond of Ann Coulter. Whenever they play that clip of those guys trying to hit Ann Coulter with the pie. I always here the samething “Damn hippies, and I am not suprized she could move out of the way that fast” It is impossible to critize her or have a difference of opinion. My husband just refuses to hear any of it.

    My #2 pick is Rudy.
    I wish more people would get behind Rudy he is a conservative and a great leader. He is right, you are not going to change people’s minds on abortion. At least not in the near future.
    Most important, HE CAN WIN. He may take states Republicans never dreamed they could take.

    Hugh Hewitt and Mark Steyn rock. Jonah Goldberg is also a national treasure.

    Mrs. Malkin is the only conservative intellect ever to write me back after an e-mail, so that always counts for something.

    Andrew Sullivan has written me, signed as “Nancy”, while a couple of years back Keith Olbermann wrote back to insult me when I questioned an upcoming episode that supposedly revealed the tie between bad political news for GWB and terror alerts and actual terror attacks.
    Olbermann was a trooofer when trooofers weren’t cool.

    I limited my list to 10. I’m afraid I happen to like Ann’s style but she only just barely made it. I agree on Hannity. That’s why he isn’t on it. Rush on the other hand gets top billing, IMHO, because more than anything he is the most successful conservative commentator out there.

    Ann Coulter by far number one in my opinion. She takes it to these liberal freakazoids like there is no tomorrow. She uses the liberal secular progressive strategies against them and wins hands down every time. She is one funny girl! Her intellectual humor BITES!

    Rush Limbaugh is excellent but I tire of his “egomaniacalisms”.

    MICHELLE MALKIN is my favorite web site, articles and book author and most well thought out and reasoned conservative in the universe. She’s easily number one too.

    Got to love Laura Ingraham. She’s such a smart girl and has an easy to listen to voice.

    Bill O’Reilly used to be much better. His usage of “Left Wing Fanatic” Geraldo Rivera is a ridiculous attempt to be fair and balanced. His TV show has clearly lost its edge with the recent disappearance of Michelle Malkin.

    Michael Savage is fabulous. Exposes both sides hypocritical tendencies and takes the edge off with recipes, cooking instructions and other health items. His angry tirades are motivational. I’m sure he keeps the SF Gay community seething!

    Sean Hannity lost me completely over Terry Schiavo. Fifty percent of his content now on both television and radio is pathetic rehashing of worn out issues.

    Newt Gingrich lost me completely after his super promotion last week of American solutions only to discover Saturday that he did not qualify to run that LUCRATIVE “not for profit” company and campaign for the presidency simultaneously. Convince me that he did not know about McCain/Feingold interference prior to last week’s super promo including hype by Neal Boortz and Sean Hannity. RIDICULOUS!

Michelle goes without saying. I’m here every day. Another fav is “W”, the President. He goes off the reservation in some areas but not without significant thought and prior experience. I still don’t agree but admire his resolution. I ADORE Dick Cheney. He’s incredibly intelligent and erudite. I always tune into his interviews where one can find any. Also, Steve Janke of Angry in the Great White North. He’s doing the Lord’s work up in the frozen north attempting to sway a pack of commie canucks. Definitely an example of the lone voice in the wilderness.

    By way of introduction, I’m a moderate independent who leans a bit right of center on most issues and left of center on a few (mostly social stuff). I consider myself rational, reasonable and pragmatic…call me an “old school” conservative with a libertarian bent and a dose of classic liberalism on a few specific issues. As a result, politicians and political pundits from the Rocky Mountain West (of both parties) tend to appeal to me. These folks tend to be pretty results oriented and aren’t particularly interested in dogmatic ideology, extreme positions or unproductive demagoguery. I feel like I’m probably at least in the plurality in this country, and folks such as me have little use for extremists on either the right (e.g., Limbaugh, Coulter, Hannity, Tancredo, Hunter, etc.) or the left (Rosie, Randi Rhodes (sp?), Kucinich, etc.). Anyway, sorry to ramble and here’s my list, in no particular order. I’ve eliminated all rigid ideologues, demagogues, authoritarians, neocons, extreme social conservatives, empty suits, and those with no manners, honor or integrity.

    Barry Goldwater - the father of the modern conservative movement. He hated that his party and movement had been hijacked.

    George Will - can be a bit pompous obviously, but he’s the real deal.

    William F. Buckley - an original. The classic traditional conservative.

    Pat Buchanan - love listening to this guy talk politics. Straight shooter agree with him or not.

    John Dean - most of you probably don’t consider him to be a conservative. You’d be wrong. He’s a traditional conservative and was very close to Goldwater. If you haven’t already, read Conservatives w/o a Conscience.

    Andrew Sullivan - see above.

    Sandra Day O’Connor - again, many of you likely don’t consider her a conservative, but you’d be wrong again. She’s a classic, traditional conservative. BTW, was closely aligned with Reinquist over the years and was close with Goldwater.

    Hugh Hewitt - disagree with him often (especially on social issues), but this guy is smart, he’s reasonable and he’s civil. Especially enjoy his interviews with authors (see Hitchens) of all political persuasions.

    Also, I would note that including politicians serving prior to WWII when listing your favorite right wingers doesn’t make much sense. The terms “conservative” and “liberal” didn’t have the same meanings prior to that time.

    Finally, I’d like to thank Ms. Malkin for opening registration to her site. Given my independent/moderate stance on most issues, I tend to visit blogs covering the right, left and middle, and I’ve gotta say that hotair.com and michellemalkin.com are two of the better sites in terms of presentation, ease of use, look and feel, etc. Both are very, very well put together. To top it off, Moran’s “Terms of Use” is the best I’ve ever seen…didn’t think it was possible to make such a thing entertaining.

    Thanks a bunch Michelle! I keep reading and want to ramble on about my opinion and couldn’t do so! Well, I guess that’s what my site is for but the more places for me to rant the better!

    Well, this is indeed exciting. Hats off to Ms. Malkin for allowing some possibility for an alternative to the creepy mash notes people usually leave for her here. I look forward to some spirited debate. Many’s the time I wanted to respond to some hatin’ from MM and her worshipers but haven’t been able to.

    In response to her graciousness, I’ll allow that Ms. Malkin does seem to be more principled than your Sean Hannity variety of Republican hack. As for the most admirable conservatives, I’ll nominate George Will, William F. Buckley, and Andrew Sullivan, all of whom are appalled, as proper conservatives should be, by the abuses and missteps of the Bush administration.

    I feel like I have begun my 15 pixels of fame. Glad to be aboard. Let me put in my 2 cents with:
    MM - For being first in my RSS feed and for making me famous by letting me comment.
    Hugh Hewitt - For changing radio and internet with the long form interview.
    VDH - For being an expert of the rarest kind.
    Mark Steyn and James Lileks - For being both wise and having a high fun quotient.
    Albert Mohler - For courageous, countercultural christianity.

    *** ¡ ¡ ¡ FLORIDA UPDATE !!! ***

    Ignoring Canadian suggestion that the remnants of Karen regenerate and hit Miami as a Category 5 hurricane on Sunday.

    Although hurricane potential is low, as system is starting out cold core and baroclinic, the Florida impacts through tomorrow, and Louisiana impacts about Friday, mean I should discuss this.

    Winds approaching tropical storm strength in Bahamas as subtropical low may be forming.

    Satellite loop of disorganized feature, as a non-tropical low pressure tried to form on old frontal boundary due to baroclinic (non-tropical) processes.

    If the upper level low backs Southwest faster than the resulting surface low, the thunderstorms around the low may be able to cause an accumulation of heat above the low, the first step in the transition from a purely polar low to a sub-tropical hybrid, then a purely tropical storm.

    The feature will also have too battle dry air being pulled into Florida and the Gulf by the upper low as seen on the Cape Canaveral sounding, with PW a dry 1.1 inches. (28mm)

    Models suggest a second Gulf landfall between Morgan City and Pensacola

    Decay SHIPs model predicts 43 knots (50 mph or 80 km/hr) at landfall.

    Ok, just because you asked, while not likely, here is Environment Canada’s ‘Canadian Meteorological Centre’ model showing the end of human life in Miami next Sunday.

    I don’t accept that forecast, yet.

    Rather than compile a numerical list of my favorite persons on the right, I decided to list my favorite persons on the right by different genre (media and non-media):

    Media:

    Television: Sean Hannity
    Radio: Rush Limbaugh
    Newspaper: Charles Krauthammer

    Non-Media:

    Politician: Vice President Dick Cheney
    Law: Justices Antonin Scalia & Clarence Thomas (tie)
    Diplomat: Ambassador John Bolton

    Overall favorite (any media, any time):

    Conservative Ingénue, Ms. Michelle Maglalang (the early years in Los Angeles & Seattle) and Mrs. Michelle Malkin (columnist, blogger, author, and political commentator)(it almost makes me feel like a Democrat to be stuffing the ballot box).

    4) Sean Hannity
    5) Jonathan Hoenig
