"CARLIN: Well, I use the sledge hammer. I don‘t do bother with the rapier on Bush. I don‘t really do a lot of political humor, but I have some glancing blows in the current show that I‘m developing. And one of them is a reference to him as Governor Bush, and the fact that I will always think of him, no matter where they hang his portrait, nor matter where they put his statue that is what he is. He is Governor Bush, because that‘s the last elected office he held legally in this country.

So I like moving in and really hurting them.

OLBERMANN: Yes.

CARLIN: I don‘t like this, let‘s be cute and let‘s be clever. I like smashing them. That‘s the only way to take care of them.

OLBERMANN: The other day speaking of smashing things, I quoted in this newscast, first time in the newscast, the seven words you can‘t say on television, the story of them and the fact that everybody forgets the first part of that story is the guy who had his phone tapped and would answer the phone, bleep Hoover. We are back there. How did we get back to the same position that we were when you made that joke originally in the 1970s?

CARLIN: You are talking about wire tapping?

OLBERMANN: Yes.

CARLIN: I don‘t know that we ever really left. I don‘t really I don‘t think that Frank Church committee really did any good. I don‘t think all of these reforms... I think power does what it wants. Power does what it wants. And now they are just more naked about it. Now they just put it right out front and say this is what we are doing to you, folks. This country is finished. It has been sliding down hill a long time. And everybody has got a cell phone that makes pancakes so they don‘t want to rock the boat. They don‘t want to make any trouble.

People have been bought off by gizmos and toys in this country. No one questions things more. Seriously, that‘s what I love about your show. You bring the thing right to them. And that is the only way to do it."



"If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little."

We had swine flu back then. The flu was no big deal (i.e., no bigger deal than any other flu) but the vaccine was problematic.
