[Eurobabe]

Can't wait to see him rip Chris Matthews.

2. I'm laughing my ass off watching the prelims.

3. The intros to Tweety-the-bully's appearance are priceless

First, the skit lampooning "round table discussions" among blathering blithering pundits, how they shoot off their OPINIONS made-up to seem like facts. This was a dead-on bullseye on Tweety and his ilk.

"It's very easy to report what's ALREADY HAPPENED. ... Experts don't just REPORT the news, they PRE-port it. ... (a series of clips of pundits making absurd predictions.) ... The Daily Show's 'SPECULARIUM' ."

[UTUSN]

4. "SPECULARIUM"!!1 A total takedown of Tweety's m.o.!!1

The round table is tiny, with the "reporters" towering over them.

"Our closing segment, 'I hate to speculate, BUT..." Each of the goons starts his speech with that phrase...

[UTUSN]

6. Re-post from last night's threads: All Tweety could do was try to bully his way through,

screeching, "This is the WORST interview! You are the WORST! The WORST!" Like repetition makes it so.

Then Tweety continued with his bullying, "You are AFRAID of this book! AFRAID! AFRAID!"


& Jon replied, "Yes, I am afraid of FASCISM!1"



So, what was Tweety's great riposte?!1 "Come on Hardball" Uh, WHY, Tweetster, to boost your pathetic ratings?!1

11. I love how Samantha Bee kept swinging her feet under the table.

18. Hmm.. were the mustaches from 2 years ago a joke on Tom Friedman? 6 month units?

[malaise]

5. President Juliani will leave his 4th wife

his 5th wife will be a man named 9/11 -Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaah for Rob's speculation :rofl:

[UTUSN]

7. "Your book - people can use their lives to HELP their lives. Fundamentally WRONG."

[UTUSN]

8. "I'm not trashing your book. I'm trashing your philosophy of life."

Tweety: "I'm listening to you."

Jon: "NO you're not!!1 You don't listen to ANYBODY!!1"

[UTUSN]

"If you live this book, your life will be strategy."

Jon: "There's stuff in here about 'ATTACK somebody where nobody else will attack.' "

[UTUSN]

15. Correction: "people can use political campaigns to HELP their lives"

Jon zeroed in repeatedly on how poltical campaigns (Tweety's life blood) are FAKE, arranged photo ops, calculated without reference to sincerity, living well, or doing good.

9. So ironic that tweety is talking about 'listening' when he never does! nt

[ChairmanAgnostic]

10. that was great.

both of them obviously enjoyed it as much as the audience.

[Eurobabe]

17. Stewart made CM look like the ass that he is

:rofl:

[RebelOne]

19. I don't think so. It was quite funny and Matthews handled it quite well. n/t

[UTUSN]

12. Effing Tweety entered with arms crossed, then "peeked" over Jon's head, height

When he goes on The View he puts on his I'm-a-little-parochial-schoolboy act. He is such a PIG, which I hate to say because it's an insult to pigs.

[UTUSN]

13. Tweety: "CLINTON got girls by listening. I thought the way was beer and bragging." n/t

[sinkingfeeling]

14. Another example of how 'dead' Matthews soul really is. To lead one's life as

a campaign; of fake listening, fake photo-ops, fake promises, and shouting ideology, would be awful. But Matthews can't defend his premise without shouting insults at Jon.

[otohara]

16. Priceless

the skit before and Matthews squirming was hilarious.
