Note: I'm pretty sure that this topic will go downhill quite fast, but the list is so offensively bad, that I had to share it.
Anyway, the Discovery Channel apparently compiled a 100 Greatest Americans list (click here), and man... I thought some of those VH1 lists were bad. This one takes the cake. See for yourself how bad it is, but here are some names that made the list that have no business being there...
Laura Bush?
Tom Cruise?
Michael Moore?
John Edwards?
Pat Tillman?
Donald Trump?
Rush Limbaugh?
Martha Stewart?
Barack Obama?
Hugh Hefner?
Dr. Phil? (Wait..... what?)
Brett Favre?
Brett Favre?
BRETT FAVRE?!?!?!
Ahem... sorry. It's just that this list is about as bad as it gets. If I had more time, I'd come up with more deserving names, but I don't, so I won't. I don't know how Bob Dylan got shafted in favor of Pat Tillman, though...

Michael Moore, Donald Trump, and John Edwards all deserve to be there but
LAURA BUSH (the most pain in the as* first lady ever),
RUSH LIMBAUGH, MARTH STEWART, DR. PHIL... (and by far weirdest of all)
TOM CRUISE, explain to me how in the world Tom Cruise is a great American, I'm a better American than he is (and believe me tat's not saying much), whoever made up this list, with the exception of the 3 exceptions I made above, had better look into these people some more.
Alright, I just clicked the hyperlink and read the full list, the full was a little better, it had a couple good people on it like Thomas Edison and Henrey Ford (and Albert Einstein, but as much as I like him he wasn't American really), but Condeleeza Rice, COME ON! Now if George W. Bush is on there I will think these people are insane, I'll check...
EEEEEEEKKKKKKKKK! Bush is one here! What kind of idiots are these people!
