... and Skeletor might die in office, giving us our first "MILF" woman president. Then SNL might get some kind of ratings again. I can see Tina Fey working on this one already.

Well given the latest spat of news, I think he's going to have a field day with Palin.

Yeah no kidding. I may have spoken to soon about unprecedented absurdity. Maureen Dowd's column in the NYT this weekend about it was particularly hilarious.

And her column was before the teen pregnancy scandal.

Oh, this election.

In order to further take this thread off topic...

That teen pregnancy thing reminds me of this video. http://www.theonion.com/content/vide...most_important

Im definitely voting Obama now because I cannot vote for a vice president if her daughter likes penis.

As far as comedian newscasters go, I would list him in the top 5 comedian newscasters for entertainment along with George Carlin's weatherman, Dennis Miller off of SNL's Weekend Update, Triumph the Insult Comic Dog. But most trusted man, no way. The guy is a muppet and is slanted to the left which is clear to all those but with blinders on. Let's be honest, the last 2 years had the least effective congress in history and it's rarely touched on in his show.

The "Most Trusted" phrase probably belong to Tim Russert, may he rest in peace. Unfortunately, news organizations are all based around tragedy TV in order to keep viewers.

Well it is kind of hard to make fun of the Democratic majority when they only have it by one seat and that guy is an independent who may speak at the Republican National Convention.

Hmm... I recall 2 Legislative houses. Regardless, their ability to pass spending bills is a joke. It seemed to me that they were more interested in renaming post offices than working together. You don't need a clear majority to work together on legislation. You certainly don't need a majority in order to make jokes out of people who make a career of purposeful inactivity.

Secondly the Republicans (not the Democrats, at least no more so then their usual shenanigans) are enacting stalling tactics right now because a productive legislature contrasting with an intensely unpopular executive would get them all murdered in the election. So it's kind of hard to make a right slanted joke on that one.

Case and point if you could make a right slanted joke then their would be a conservative version of the Daily Show.

... and back to our non-political programming

Anyone who wants to argue about politics or religion is welcome to do so in another forum.
