Survivor: Bloggers' Island
Randy Leonard
Inspired by a blog post here, I would like to know who BlueOregon readers would like to vote off our "Island".
Please just enter your vote in the comment section. We can all keep a running tab of who the winner is.
Feel free to vote early and vote often.

I'm not sure I get it.
Don Imus is already "off the island".
Jack Bogdanski isn't a radio guy - and isn't a right-wing wacko like Larson, O'Reilly, and Savage.
Apr 16, '07
Can I vote off Michael McDonald? :)
Apr 16, '07
Actually, Kari, the common thread between the candidates is not radio or, for that matter, their "politics".

I vote for Bill O'Reilly.
Apr 17, '07
My vote would be for Don Imus, but I've never seen him mentioned on this site anyway.

Wow Randy--quick to list everyone else---ever thought about putting your own name out there? There might be more people wanting to vote you off the island than you think---
Apr 17, '07
That's an easy one...
If I was on an island with Jack "Bog" Bogdanski, Lars Larson, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly and Don Imus as my only company, and I could only vote off one person, I would vote myself off the island.

Imus is gone the rest are fine. The island where Thom Hartman and Randi Rhodes hang out with their IED shows is another story. They aren't very nice.
Apr 17, '07
O'Reilly and Savage have proven themselves hatemongers and those who listen to them biggots. Pure and simple. The irony of the Imus situation is that these other idiots have far worse hate speech and they are still on the air.
Lars is small potatos. He is a failed newsman and would only be left on this "island" for laughing value only.
Neal Bortz should be on this list because he is the worst of all.
Thom Hartman not nice? This man is about as nice as they come. Paul is intimidated by Randi Rhodes because she is a smart woman. Don't worry Paul, it is not the size of your penis, but how you use it that counts. (mumble, mumble... not!)

I like the idea of a blogger vote-off, and since Jack is so antagonistic and personal about his assaults on Portland figures, he'd definitely qualify for the list. But then who else would you add? Mostly Oregon bloggers are pretty cool. Even the righties are good blog citizens.
You know what would be more interesting?--who to vote off the BlueOregon troll roll. There's a vote I could support.

I am surprised you didn't include IKEA signs...

From a distance - the second hottest local economy in "the country" - Jack's alright. Probably because we out here on the high desert tend to think. Drop the rest of them in Sadr City.
Apr 17, '07
I vote for O'Reilly, one hundred thousand times.
Apr 17, '07
Hmmmm... We have five names. Four are notorious mainstream media figures (Lars is the only one who isn't national) and fifth is a local blogger with an acid keyboard who has skewered Mr. Leonard more than a few times lately, and who just invented the concept over at his blog.
Let me guess who Randy Leonard wants us to vote off this island ...
Apr 17, '07
Slow day at the office Randy?
Let's hope the "Strong Mayor" initiative fails or we'll be seeing more pointless posts from the commissioner with even more time on his hands.
Apr 17, '07
I think would keep Lars just so we had someone to laugh at, I would get rid of Michael Savage.
Apr 17, '07
Billo
Apr 17, '07
He can't swim.
He can't spawn.
Ladies and gentlemen, the clear winner is... Lars Larson!
Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle...
Apr 17, '07
Lars is the only one who isn't national
Actually, he is. I think he is on again here right after Savage.
And someone is honestly putting O'Reilly in the same category as Savage? I dont get that one.
Apr 17, '07
Oh, and I vote Savage.
Apr 17, '07
Ok then...Rick Emerson :)

Lar Liarson's gotta go (and he needs to take Victoria Daft along too)

Lumping Jack Bogdanski with Bill O'Reilly, Lars Larson, and Michael Savage? Wow, he must have really gotten under your skin.
And: "who BlueOregon readers would like to vote off our "Island".(sic) Our island? Didn't realize this was such an exclusive club.
Apr 17, '07
Maybe you should go to that island where you put Vera out to pasture. You can come back and visit with Vera when she calls Mr Adams to give him marching orders.
Seriously, I hope you don't leave, I always find your global viewpoint so entertaining and entirely out of touch with running a city for the taxpayers who pay your salary.

Slow day at the office Randy?
For the record, Randy posted this at roughly 11 p.m. That's about the usual time of day for his posts.
Our island? Didn't realize this was such an exclusive club.
It's not. We let you in! (Natch!)
12:42 a.m.

Leave the bait alone, Randy. Besides, your place on that other island looks pretty secure…

Great job at the Novick announcement today, Randy.
I must, however, take issue with any list that omits Alexandria, Virginia's latest contribution to the Oregon political blogosphere, Democrats for Smith. They win my enthusiastic write-in.

Even though, at more than 2,500 miles away, they're kind of off the island already.
Apr 18, '07
Thanks, Charlie. Your write in suggestion definitely is appropriate.

Fellow haters and secular progressives, I vote for Billo
