Dave: "Hey, Alan, what time is it?" Alan: "Well, Dave, it's time for 'Stooge of the Night!'
In the past few nights when I caught the Letterman Show he named the following "Stooge Of The Night":
Inhofe
Flake
Cruz
Isakson
Rubio
Pryor
Ayotte
Baucus
Here's a link to the Marco Rubio - Stooge of the Night - (around 1:01 into this clip)
Dave really embarrasses them because of their vote on the gun bill in the Senate.
He lingers on their official Senate picture and continues the digs at them. If I were one of these Senators designated "Stooge Of The Night" - I would be mortified.
I hope Dave keeps this segment going - because I believe it will help in turning the Senate around and ultimately voting for background checks.
If you google "Stooge of the Night" you could find all the clips of the above "Stooges".

I've watched him for years and he just keeps getting better and better! Thanks so much for posting!

for people who don't know what is in the bill.
But, I'm glad he is doing this.

Stooge Of The Night -needs to be a regular feature on the Late Show as there are always political stooges to embarrass.
