Wow, we're watching a totally mind-blowing interview that Fox News' Stuart Varney is holding practically yelling at some econ professor from Occidental. Gobsmackingest thing I've ever seen. Not even sure where to start. We'll try to get the video.

I'm not even quite sure how to describe it other than it seemed out of the norm in terms of ranthood even by the copiously rantishous standards of Fox News.

1. That was the weirdest conversation ever. Why have guests if you plan to badger them? n/t

2. You could have seen Laura Tyson being interviewed if you watched The News Hour...

instead of wasting time on Fox, the worst of cable nooze.

Tyson was hit with some tough questions, but she came back as maybe the smartest person in the room.

3. I loved him in "Ernest Goes To Camp"

So, he's working for Fox now?

[Rabrrrrrr]

4. My first thought in response to the asshole was "Is it moral to equate 'success' with 'earns a lot'"

The asshole's question is, itself, an immoral one. Not only for its false definition of success, but its total lack of context and indefensible position.
