Bush got elected in 2004, not re-elected. So there really was no excuse for the stupidity of the people who voted for him in 2004.

Some years back here in small-town, Heartland America, when the stories about bad Firestone tires were in the news, the local newspaper (the only local newspaper) didn't run any of the stories about the tires because the local Firestone dealer was one of their biggest advertisers.
"Free press," indeed.

I'm poor, I live in the country, and I'm not a liberal. I listen to public radio most of the day, and I give what I can during the pledge drives.

Speaking of Faith isn't called that, anymore. It has a new name, but it's still crap.

My entry in the Hee Haw trivia fest:
Kathie Lee Gifford auditioned to be a Honey and was rejected.

My parents loved Hee Haw (my mother liked the music and my father liked the Honeys), and I hated it except where else could I hope to see John Hartford?
And I liked Roy Clark enough to buy SuperPicker, or whatever that album was called.
I also, decades later, watched Hee Haw Silver when it was broadcast locally.

Matt LeBlanc

Somebody
is a Michael Cimino fan.

clips
None of the clips is working, not even showing the Play button.
Anyone else?

I mention WC Fields and Barnie Miller.

The reincarnation of Busby Berkeley as an Indian action-sequences sci-fi creator.

A tankard of Johnny Walker Blue, straight up.

Some sort of watershed
I have no idea what Lucky Louie is. Never heard of it.

A good teacher is happy when his pupil surpasses him.
