1. Well, it's nice that the media is beginning to

see through this bullshit fearmongering. Some of us caught on earlier than others, I guess.

(referring to the San Diego Paper and ABC news, as mentioned in the segment. Not KO - he's sharp.)

2. I'm suspicious of all the terror threats .. go Keith.

3. AL QAEDA!

BOO!

[dipsydoodle]

6. AL

JOLSON..................BOO !

[whistle]

8. Was Al Jolson a terrorist? I know that Larry Parks the actor who played Al Jolson

...in the film about Jolson's life and career was blacklisted by the HUAC during the McCarthy era. But I am not quite seeing the joke in this post. :shrug:

9. Simply that almost anything beginning

with Al seems to get classed as a terrorist these days. I could just as easily have said Al Bowley but you'd have needed to be English to know who he was.

[whistle]

10. Oh I get it now...Al Gore the green terrorist and so on

[dipsydoodle]

11. That is in fact

extremely witty. Must remember that one :rofl:

[lander]

4. I thought it was really poignant...

...seeing how humbled and honored Will Bunch felt when Olbermann showed him the page from their student newspaperl. Seemed as if Bunch didn't even remember having written it; I had to rewind a bit to catch it a second time.

5. I agree

that was cool....

7. It would have been nice if they brought up the drunken astronaut

stories and the sabotage of the computer wires being cut by a disgruntle contractor.

The point was well made.
