Damn, I guess I’ll never be the worst person in the world.

Craigy Ferg fan? The best late night show by far.

"Hanoi Jane is America's favorite traitor." -- Craig Ferguson, 5-12-2007

"Flying carpet technology's been around for years, but it's being suppressed by big oil." -- Craig Ferguson

Craig is an excellent example of a naturalized citizen loving his country for what it is.

I meant to refer to your saying that you had only been killed twice. In the Disney series about Baca they said that like El Gato he had nine lives.

Ultimately, every organization has a “Take Out The Trash” moment. This was PMSNBC’s moment. Although, I prefer to think of it as more of a cleansing enema...

They still have a couple more pieces of rubbish, though... Sgt Shultzie and Madcow are looking over their shoulders right now going “Uh Oh”...)

We’ll see...

[Kaslin]

Fox will give him a job, someone has to clean the bathrooms.

At times like this, I find myself turning to “the thinking blue” youtube tribute to Keith Olbermann, who else has such a way with a run-on sentence:

“I keep searching; hoping to
find out that it was a joke, but it
appears to be another kick to
the head, by the powers that
be, for those of us who enjoy
truth delivered by someone with so
much integrity that his very
presence oozes goodness &
honesty. Now, for me anyway,
there’s no reason to keep the
package Dish charges me
($15 monthy that’s $180
yearly) for delivering MSNBC.
Without Countdown MSNBC
will just be too sad to watch.”

-thinking blue :-(

The best response by the left was the first. Bill Maher showed everyone how upset the poor whining liberals were in this post on the Fox Nation site.

Olbermann was suspend=ded for a few days after the election for campaign contributions to those that were guests on his show. Maddow and some posts at DU indicated progressives did a call/write in begging for him to be reinstated and he was within a few days. I so O’Donnel; is taking the time spot, He interviews Republicans but usually sets them up, and I have seen few Republicans prepare themselves before going in that enemy land.

If I keep accepting jobs in places like the Congo, Pakistan and Iraq, one of these days my number is bound to really come up. I mean, if an IED, AK round, mortar round, or rocket doesn’t get me, surely a big mean snake with big pointy teeth will bite me right in my lower brain housing. But that would be better than going down like Olbermeinkampf did.

REnted a moveie for the first time from VUDU the other night. Ann Benning and Julianne Moore are in. Can’t remember the title of the film, but it was 4 our of 5 stars.....and hyped as a “Modern Day American Suburban couple raising a pair of teenagers etc.”

Sounded fun to my girlfriend and me so I rented it.

Within the first 45 seconds of the actual film, we see Benning and Moore kissing, followed soon after in bed with one going down on the other, while one of the kids walks in.

I turned off, obviously I didn’t pick up on the code words “modern suburbian couple etc”.

I’m going to see if they’ll give me my money back.

My point here is, this movie was a rag. I doubt very much it made any money.

And no doubt would have been funnier if the couples were like Bob HOpe and Lucy...recented divorced and now starting a new life with each other’s kids.

Made a boat load of money and Benning won a Golden Globe for her performance.

They are somber and crying at Demons Underground.

Was just over there - no shortage of prepubescent paranoia and vulgarity

Does that mean they heard the news, or not?

[RabidBartender]

LOL!

Pair him with Hannity and see whose head explodes first (viewers don’t count).

[nikos1121]

Great, I’m sure you enjoyed it....

I’ll take Cheaper By the Dozen... you can have your Golden Globe winner....

Goog grief..

We’re in trouble....all of us...Just the tip of the Iceberg..

But where do you...? Where does one live out their retirement...?

This country is a toilet...
