twitter based society (no time, multi tasking) and he is finally someone who appreciates the tried but true theme of going after the rich and powerful (when deserved of course)

his latest lament on cheney and the * admin is another classic.

here is a link to the video for any who might have missed it lastnight...

and with rachel following on his heels, it is a real treat when i decide/have time to tune in =)

reminds me of the old soviet quip 'a capitalist well sell you the rope to hang him with'

1. Keith desparately needed a "lead-out" show--someone who could be Hannity to his O'Reilly
And Rachel has given it to him.

2. Hiya, Studs!!!
Nice to see you again. Happy New Year!

:toast:

I'm reading the original Studs' wonderful work, "Hope Dies Last." It's brilliant.

KO seems to be getting less and less reserved, and I think the next couple of weeks - until Chimpy Fucknuts departs my damn airspace (I'll be outside, facing Andrews Air Force Base, giving the single-finger salute as they take off) - will be very interesting for "Countdown." I hope he lets it rip and does so without any reservation.

It's never boring, is it?

that is too funny about your plan for the 20th - lol

and no, he certainly is never boring :bounce:

and isn't Studs a national treasure, he taught me to be proud of where i came from, he will surely be missed but his life works will live on forever!

:hi: Tangerine LaBamba

4. I saw that, but
I keep fighting down the urge to set fire to it. After I pee on it.

Ah, but the real Studs - who was a doll - would be proud of you as his namesake. Can you imagine what he'd have done with Obama being our next President? And the current Blago soap opera? He'd have loved it.

We're always gonna miss him.

In the meantime, we do have Chimpy for another thirteen days.

Have you see this?

I downloaded the screensaver, and now I get to watch the seconds tick away. It's very soothing. Give it a try.

And, again, good to see you, Studs..............
