X-Files Actress Loves Obama, Despises Limbaugh and Beck

March 6th, 2011 7:02 AM

Actress Gillian Anderson (best known for being Agent Scully on The X-Files) is an easily pegged Hollywood liberal in an interview with the leftist U.K. newspaper The Guardian:

Which living person do you most admire, and why?
Obama, because against all odds, he's getting the job done with grace and integrity.

...

Which living person do you most despise?
Toss up between Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck.

I'm always surprised anyone would pick a talk-show host for Most Despised Person Presently Breathing on Earth. I would never pick Keith Olbermann when I can pick actual mass murderers and oppressors like Gaddafi. It would even be more impressive to pick cigarette makers than pick El Rushbo. That just says you can't stand to listen to a disagreeable viewpoint.

Of course, there's also less serious answers:

Who would play you in the film of your life?
Johnny Depp.

What is your most unappealing habit? Being right.
