who are trying to bring America down and destroy America

I wish I was exaggerating

Who is the host this year?

Remember the year when the war criminals invited Colbert actually thinking he was one of them?

I LOVED Colbert's routine. The audience and Bush were VERY uncomfortable. Colbert's the BEST!

I knew nothing about him but checked out a couple of short YouTube videos of his style. One thing is for sure: you can't find better comedy material than the Republicans.

I've got my dvr set for MSNBC & am looking forward to it.

9. Was anybody else lucky enough to catch Ben Stein's reaction to McHale last night?

He was on CNN after McHale's routine, and he was absolutely furious. I thought the old guy's heart was going to give out. After he used the term "Goddamned" in his ranting, CNN got the cameras off him, pronto. Ben Stein: duking it out with Pat Buchanan for the position of the nation's crazy old right-wing uncle.

Well done, McHale and Mr. President!
