Keith Olbermann shares insight regarding Carly Fiorina's "demon sheep" ad. The Python bit isn't the frightening part, but the glowing red eyes, and man in a sheep costume may keep you awake! Possibly the worst campaign ad of all time however, it was lauded by Democrats.
The interview of the titans, Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly was a farce. O'Reilly was careful to tape, the better to leave large, cogent pieces of Stewart's excellent commentary on the cutting room floor. Chicken-hearted O'Reilly wasn't up to the task of answering questions by someone he once called "a clown" with no real news following, but we have the clips you missed here!
Ed Schultz attended just one of several free health clinics springing up with volunteer medical help. Today's clinic was in Hartford, Connecticut. The need is overwhelming! You'll hear personal stories, some life saving, some life changing. Schultz said he saw the best and the worst of America today. If you take anything away, it's that it doesn't have to be this way. Of the thousand people seen, 69% were unemployed, some recently making six figures. Another 39% are underemployed, sometimes working two and three jobs. Why are they still waiting for a free clinic or going without care? Politics, nothing more. Lieberman refuses to consider it. While Obama harangues the House and Senate that we've got to finish the job on this, Democrats in both houses worry about how it will look! Will passing reform with reconciliation look like a trick, or heaven forbid..taint future attempts to work with Republicans!
Justice Sonia Sotomayor tells it like it is! "The might as well be white" Justice Thomas, the White looking guy Justice Ginsberg and the rest of the white guys who are so white that...
Seth Meyers hits it home with President Obama in the hot seat at the Republicans bequest last week. It was like the GOP taking on Aquaman, in the water. Needless to say, the President did so well that the afterwords Republicans complained that cameras were allowed in the room while at the same time claiming Democrats are fascists for not allowing cameras in the room for Health Care debates. [btw the reason for the no cameras is that it does not serve the debate well with Republicans waving aborted fetuses or live babies(which Democrats want to kill) around their heads for the cameras]
Wandarama - Video news from Wanda Sykes on Grinch Ben Bernanke, George W Bush and his lost emails, the Golden Pope hypocrisy and Sarah Palin at Costco.
I really always kinda sorta in a way in my youth sometimes loved airheads... I'll take Sarah over any of the rest of that Devil Worshiping crowd any day!
The Wanda Sykes Show is no substitute for MAD TV which it replaced. But for many it is a good replacement for Bill Maher who will be gone until February. I found the problem with these first three shows is there is far too much of Wanda's lightweight pals, one in particular that seems to have no personality, no talent, isn't funny and has no stage presence. An Ed McMahon who won't shut up.
This new segment called Wandarama uses the same format as NEW RULES.
All in all it's good to be exposed to what a Black Lesbian woman who hasn't straightened her hair has to say about this and that. It's way different than Wolf Blitzer.
Witnesses say that Ms Heather Ellis sashayed right past those waiting in line - something acceptable only if you are on fire, and even then, you may not stop to cut in line. Ms Ellis was not on fire...yet. She cut in front of those waiting and shoved the merchandise belonging to another customer behind hers on the conveyor belt to make room for her own. I know how this would go over at the local Walmart where the racial mix is extremely diverse. Patrons wouldn't care whether she were white, black, purple, or teal. It is likely that they would choose to point out her faux pas. If she didn't mend her ways, she could be identified as black and blue regardless of her original coloring, people take these things seriously here, and in Kennett, Mo where this story originated on that fateful day in June of 2007. Unfortunately the woman who happened to have her items shoved backward on the conveyor was white. It's reported that Heather Ellis, the then - 20-year-old college student and preacher's daughter, became belligerent when confronted. Unless and until her attorneys release surveillance tapes, we have only the involved witness accounts to counter Ms Ellis, who maintains that what transpired next was racially motivated.
In a letter to the NAACP, Ellis claims 'cuttsies' in line on a technicality. She explained that she was joining her cousin in a faster moving line. Try that move on the Friday after Thanksgiving, you're likely to get stuffed even if you're the Queen Mother. My apologies, I digress...but merely from a shoppers' viewpoint, certainly not a racial one. Waiting your turn is the code of the shopping line, broken only when a polite shopper with a huge cart invites another with only gum, or a personal hygiene product to go first. It's rare, but I have seen it happen with my own eyes. From all accounts, the customer whose merchandise Ellis shoved back the better to insert hers, was not offering such a deal. Ellis claimed that she was then pushed by the white customer, hassled by
store employees, called racial slurs and physically mistreated by Kennett police officers, whose physical and psychic wounds have healed nicely after three years. The police officers are not likely forget Ms Ellis, even without their
scars. Court documents state that Ellis was requested to calm down, a suggestion she emphatically refused. Likewise, she turned down other requests to simply leave the property, both requests were made by the manager and a security guard. Having failed to quiet or dislodge her they felt they had no option other than to call the police.
Obama! Get rid of DON'T ASK DON'T TELL this weekend! Republicans will implode and forget all about Health care and the environment. Bus gays into straight neighborhoods!
