Thursday Politics: My Friends, Stop Everything!


David Letterman Reacts to John McCain Suspending Campaign
David Letterman was quite perturbed by the fact that John McCain lied to him when the Arizona senator canceled his appearance at the last minute. Keith Olbermann ended up filling in. What really set Letterman off was that instead of rushing back to Washington like he [...]

2008 Primetime Emmys


Hey! Remember when I used to mostly post about TV? Those were the days. I’ll be rolling out somewhat of a Fall TV Preview this week, but there aren’t many shows to be excited about….
In the meantime, the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards were held in Hollywood Sunday night.
I thought about [...]

Jon Stewart Obliterates John McCain


As Jon Stewart demonstrated on Friday night’s The Daily Show, John McCain’s RNC acceptance speech was a xerox of George W. Bush’s 2000 speech. The ‘H’ in John stands for hypocrisy.

Jack Nicholson for Hillary Clinton


As Jon Stewart noted on The Daily Show last night, all of Jack Nicholson’s psychopathic characters love Hillary Clinton. Apparently so does Jack Nicholson, the real person. What follows is not a parody. It’s a legitimate video created by Jack Nicholson and Rob Reiner. It’s also interesting to note that Jack Nicholson [...]

Who really created Mike Huckabee?


Who says you need writers to be entertaining? Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, and Conan O’Brien showcased their improvisational skills last night on The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, and Late Night with Conan O’Brien. The feud started around, of all things, who created Mike Huckabee. (The answer is God.)
