Is it just me or is CNN's Rick Sanchez kind of a douche?
"LOOKIT HOW HIP AND CONNECTED I AM!!! MSG ME ON TWITTER LOL!!!"

"OH MY GOD THE OIL RIGS ARE GOING TO HIT GAS WILL GO THROUGH THE ROOF"

"FRIEND ME ON MYSPACE!!!!"

"I'M WEARING A STRIPED SHIRT AND POLKA-DOTTED TIE, I CLEARLY CAN'T DRESS MYSELF!!!"

Who the hell is this douche?

(And yes, I know I shouldn't be watching CNN, but it's an extremely entertaining trainwreck.)

1. "KIND" of a douche? One of the worst hacks I've ever seen, actually.
If you can watch even a second of him, you have infinitely more patience than I do!

3. It's not you.
He is just about the biggest cable news douche out there...slugging away on the weekends and trying desperately to get a weekday gig by being totally over the top.

28. Exactly...he's got his sleeves rolled up...the pen in his hand...
...he gets all animated waving his hands around and just basically acts like a jackass.

Hard to believe he came over from Fox. :sarcasm: :*

16. I think watching him appeals to the MSTie in me
That part of my brain that likes to get drunk and watch Showgirls at 3am.

No worries. :D

7. He was bad enough when he was on local news in Miami
Now, I'm not sure exactly what he is... some kinda transcendent uber-douche, I guess...

10. I'll admit it, the Facebook thing drew me in
I'm somewhat of a Facebook addict and I'm following what people are posting there about the newscast at the same time I'm watching CNN.

12. He is a right wing nut of the
Miami Cuban variety. I remember him acting like a total loon during the Elian Gonzales fiasco. Oh, Lordy!

21. He was a moron in South Florida - and he killed a man
<<On December 10, 1990, Sanchez struck a pedestrian, Jeffrey Smuzinick, with his car on a residential street near Dolphin Stadium after Smuzinick darted into the road. Smuzinick, who was inebriated at the time of the incident, was paralyzed and eventually died from his injuries in 1995.Sanchez, who had just left an NFL football game with his father, was not charged with causing the accident, but was charged with, and pleaded no contest, to DUI.>>

22. He was a local news guy down here (Florida) when Andrew hit.
He's been a total douchebag since at least 1992.
