I missed it but hubby said he was hilariously scathing toward Bush - unfortunately I didn't get details.

3. I didn't find him that scathing.
I'm a long-time fan of Robin but he sort of low-keyed his jabs. It was pretty clever, I thought, but he wasn't himself, IMHO. I remember before the build up to the Iraq War, how up front he was about criticizing the potted plant, er the POTUS. He was definitely in his underground mode this time.

7. Exactly...he and Reeve were very close friends from Julliard days
Williams actually helped with Reeves extreme medical bills after the accident.

4. I don't detest Leno personally as much as
I detest his neocon audience. I will admit that he panders to them for the sake of popularity, and he should be called for that.
