Did anyone post Lewis Black's Evolution rant tonight or * taking the blame
for the Fed F*ck up in N.O.?

Jon Stewart's reaction was great, and man, the * statement was one of the most shifty, least sincere statement I've ever seen.

Plus lot's more.

1. Was that great or what?
Lewis Black was great -- and georgie looked about as uncomfortably wormlike as I've ever seen him.

:D

2. Just hope America doesn't confuse "wormlike" for "humility".
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 02:36 AM by nine23
To me, he's always looked "uncomfortably wormlike", not to mention dumb as a fucking root vegetable. Could it be that he's so outwardly stupid and awkward, that people actually feel sorry for him and in denial confuse it for something else, ie. "humility"? This seems to work for him over and over again...

3. I was thinking Snake, but Worm works too.

The reason I ask is because I recorded them, and could post them if they haven't been already.

7. About which part? Lewis Black or Jon?
Both covered a lot of ground.

8. I'm still laughing about playing in the "Uncle Sam Jesus Bowl."
I started snickering about that last night and slowly expanded to a full-on guffaw.

It was GREAT! And they actually showed somebody's head exploding when discussing bush's milquetoast attempts to claim "responsibility" for what happened.

9. One of the best parts was that Jon reported that *..........
lifted the Davis-Bacon Act (lowering prevailing wages), but the same crew got no-bid contracts (Halliburton, Bechtel, etc.).

I wish the "real" media would jump all over that more than I've seen. I would think the "average" American would get really pissed about the blatant unfairness of that. Not to mention that * doesn't set limits on profiteering but sets limits on the workers' wages. Unfrigginbelievable.

14. Maybe ol' Jeff ought to go ask his Junior Senator, Trent Lott what it is!
I don't know who I hate more among the ReTuglican Senators, Jeff Session or Ted Stevens? Both at total Assholes.

10. on TDS, you actually SEE the tape
i knew * said he took responsibility, but i'd never seen the petulant, horrifyingly immature body language & equivocating language that went along with it.

the sighing, the looking at his feet. oi!

TDS is the only place you can see president presenile dementia's incompetency laid bare.

12. GOOD News: Video from last night @ Comedy Central.com Now!
Edited on Thu Sep-15-05 12:00 PM by Up2Late
At the link below:

<http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/the_daily_show/videos/jon_stewart/index.jhtml>

Just click on Videos in the list on the left, or click the picture of * with the graphic, "What, Me Sorry?"

It will pop up a small video window which has a "Most Recent" list that also has Lewis Black (Back in Black:Evolution).

NOTE:If you have a "Pop-up Blocker" turned on, you might need to turn it off temporally.

The Schmevolution Panel was from last night too, it's O.K., but if your pressed for time, I wouldn't bother with it.

And if you like Kurt Vonnegut, his list from the other night is here: <http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/the_daily_show/extras/vonnegut.jhtml>
