I probably only see 20% of the Daily Show and Cobert episodes (I just don’t watch that much TV), but it’s almost always a hoot when I do. I totally missed this gem when it aired, but happily PeeZed tapped us in. WeatherGirl started watching this, and soon had Sub-Evil Boy and I behind her guffawing along. I think we all watched it three times right then, and laughed like mad every time. For those who didn’t see it when it aired, now’s your chance:
So many wonderful moments, especially the spectacular opening, where Wolf Blitzer (hardly a paragon of hard-nosed journalism as a rule) has the gall to point out the supernova sized inconsistency in Cheney’s universe. I also just loved the hunting bit:
What do we do? Just sit around here waiting for old men’s heads to fly by?
Oh, yeah…
….. ‘old men’s heads flying by’ was indeed a classic line.
Of course we would all be better of if the Dickster spent all his days hunting instead of working the levers of government, or pulling the strings of his puppet, Shrub (acknowledgement to Molly Ivins).
Speaking of Molly, for many years I thought that she might be the only sane Texan on the planet. You have disproved that theory; but losing her hurts, nonetheless.
