Russell Brand pwns useless MSNBC Talk show hosts

That's my point. It depends what he was saying. If he was spreading an anti-apartheid message then yes I'd be 'just as two minded'.

I'd listen to them.
 
Russell is the only modern British 'celebrity' of any significance who has 'made it' in the US, too and they love him there...

not that the US is any barometer of culture but they are lucky to get an export of such rapier wit and intelligence....when he can be bothered. You should be proud of him.
 
Er, you seem to be forgetting the adorable likes of Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan, Adele, Chris Martin etc etc who are all FAR bigger than Brand. Who I am a big fan of btw. His football column in the guardian used to be fucking brilliant.

Well next to those absolute bellends Brand does indeed seem like a great personality doesn't he :D

Damn....i forgot about those idiots (apart perhaps from Adele...). Actually Sacha Baron Cohen is also popular stateside, and he rocks

Yes and he deserves an award for his services to Zionism. I don't see him making any comical, or any for that matter, criticism of Israel's political situation.

The biggest has to be [WWF Wrestling voice] Rrrrricky Ger-vaiiiiis - how unlikely was that! Didnt he do well

That bit in Bruno with the fundamentalist Jews in Israel was pretty funny

To be fair it was quite funny. Actually the interview with the Israeli and Palestinian lectures was quite amusing, although it trivialised the conflict. I digress, back on track.
 
Boris Johnson is the most dangerous politician in Britain, precisely because of his charm. The members of the Conservative party that are rallying to install him as leader are those to the right of David Cameron. If you thought the fringe on his head was lunatic, you should see the lunatic fringe that want him as leader. Those for whom Cameron is not Tory enough. "Offshore Dave", leader of a coalition for whom 14 of its 20 most prominent donors have links to companies with offshore holdings. The politicians who want to move the party and our country further to the right want Boris. And well they might: he is the consummate televisual politician. Funny and likable, even when he errs it's cute, like a shaved Winnie the Pooh accidentally eating all the honey.

Hearken to the person who says icke is right. Whose glib understanding of politics is above. Johnson is the power brand knows he can never be. The anti-semitic dick.
