You must hear Mastication Theatre on The O'Franken Factor

[peacetalksforall]

Karl Rove and Peggy Noonan are eating lunch; Karl is trying to get her to expose Plame in her column.

This is a must!

1. Freakin' Hilarious

I was howling at this. Franken has had some duds in his little sketches, but this one was pretty good.

2. Al gives Linda Chavez a pretty good beatdown...

but her first reaction is "I misspoke"....

[bossfish]

3. Now Al has his "dittohead" buddy on...

And the dittoman mentions that he doesn't know much about Wilson, <paraphrase>"...but it is pretty apparent that Wilson has an anti-Bush agenda..."

Why does pointing out malfeasance and nonfeasance of the White House explained away as an "anti-Bush agenda".

The Niger stuff was garbage - Wilson is an experienced diplomat and patriot who reported what he knew.

The WH decided to leak his wife's identity as a CIA agent and he's pissed.

So, that is an "anti-Bush" agenda?

Now the dittohead is supporting Rush's rationalization of the prisoner abuse as an interrogation technique("No bones were broken")

Oy, Oy

4. People actually think that that's funny?

I guess it just comes off as lame to me because I'm used to experts at funny radio in the Howard Stern show(and a while ago Opie and Anthony).

To me when they break away from exposing O'Reilly's lies(which is what I consider great) to go to that it just makes the show seem bad. To each his own
