No, because the midterms hadn't happened yet. If the show had any connection to reality, he'd be gone after 1 more term. As it stands, he'll probably be pope or something.

It's really quite amazing how, without Letterman around, he's the true elder statesman of Late Night comedy. His Bowie tribute was also very sweet.

Ben or Glory…. just another story…

His last words: "William Daniels still survives."

Actually, the play (and probably the movie) ends with the election in 1964, before Selma even happened. But the above-metioned Path to War does have the LBJ side of Selma, and it's pretty darned good. (Far better at depicting his role than Selma was, actually.)

You know who could have won Vietnam? Turboman.

Not that different? The reason he pulled out was because he was probably going to lose anyway.

Not the 1964 version, anyway. People forget just how kooky he was in his younger days (and how nuts his supporters were), compared to disliking the religious right as an elder statesman in the 80s.

Not every comments section can carry the weight of the world…

I just remember Norm MacDonald getting to the million dollar question on the celebrity edition, then backing out, even though his guess would have been right.

Well, it's a Passion Play with black people. So I bet they probably won't be.

Yeah, but it's no Manchester Passion.: https://www.youtube.com/wat…

Not just low-hanging fruit, but dead horses.

Scalia's a prick, but I kind of appreciate reserving the Fuckulogy for really truly horrendous mass murders, like Bin Laden, Kim Jong Il, and Qadaffi. We lose something as a country and as humanity when normal political opponents get equated to the likes of those genuinely horrific bastards.

Wasn't slime like literally the entire plot of Ghostbusters II though?

He really seemed to have the voice down. When they had him opening the hearing, I thought they were using an archival recording.

Also, I respect Die Hard 2 for deciding they were going to have a big twist, but not just replicate the first one's. The moment in 3 when it turns out it's all a plot to somehow rob the Federal Reserve Bank is when it all starts going down hill. Also: Alan Rickman > Jeremy Irons trying to play Alan Rickman. It's to…

Although COINTELPRO-WHITEHATE also did as much as anything to break up the organized Klan during the late 1960s through an campaign first of exposure, then epic ratfuckery (framing members within the organization as informants and embezzlers, spurring factionalism and intraKlan power struggles, infiltrating the…

Also needs: "Oh man, I can't fucking believe this. How can the same shit happen to the same President twice?"

He really must have done something special to finish behind O'Malley.
