Jon Stewart still has Biden, he's not as good as Palin, but he says the darnest things.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I mean, it could never be as good as it's been the last 8 years, could it?

I just read this interview with a Comedy Central writer (among others) about this very issue: Can We Laugh? Yes, We Can

Also, a Conan writer had this to say:

Q. In the immediate aftermath of the election, how do you make fun of a unifying moment like that?

A. In the short term, you certainly can do jokes in the great American tradition of kicking losers when they’re down. There’s this company that called us up and said: “You know what? We have 5,000 McCain dolls. We don’t want them. Do you?” They’re being delivered here, and we’re trying to think of creative ways to destroy them. Like maybe a Viking funeral on the Hudson River.

Rahm alone is comedy gold, so I don't think they'll be lacking in material.

Unless it's really, REALLY funny.

Oh my. That is funny. Fox was all, "We didn't tell you the bad stuff about Palin because we didn't want to hurt her election chances. But now we can." And the loyal viewers are all, "Fuck you! You gave us this illusion she was OK; why can't you just keep lying to us?"

Trust my rage

Cash, that was one odd video

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Cash - that was disturbing, odd and confusing.

Strega - oh my. eating their own. Fox, tabloid?? wow, that is a revalation - apparently ok if the people are coastie elite liberals, but not a Palin, oh my no. Someone should send that link to KO.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

We should totally have the next East coast f2f at Barack's new house! They have plenty of room, and there's catering on site.

Is there a field for that on the transition team application form?

Yeah. Plus there are two 747s that get used as Air Force One, so I'm sure he'd let us borrow those to get everyone there....

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Hee! Strega is my new best friend. That's just the kind of yummy schadenfreude I want in my pie.

eta: Man, I really am a mean, petty little person.

I don't care, I'm just taking note of it.
