    Exactly. Any perceived generosity to the people from the GOP is always accompanied by even more generosity to corporations. All they had to do with the Medicare Part D program was to insert a line saying that the government was not allowed to negotiate drug prices and the pharmaceutical companies hopped on board that

    From wikpedia:

    I like the idea of Batiste and his band, just not the execution. Colbert doesn't need a yes-man, and when it comes to ad-libbing, as the old insult goes, Batiste couldn't ad-lib a fart. But again, the idea of the music, upbeat New Orleans style, is a good concept and differentiates itself from the other shows out

    I was a big fan of her old material because she delivered it with a sweet, naive persona. I presume she's still sweet since I don't watch her show. But there's no way she can pull off naive any more, so it will be interesting to see how that affects her comedy.

    WOOT-OFF TODAY! Damn, I remember when that was a big thing warranting all caps. It was like being a fan of Seinfeld before the big "I'm out" event that made everyone fans…

    Yeah, because normally windows get frosty from the outside.

    Tatiana Maslany is pretty much her own supporting cast.

    Here's a great article on how Colbert feels about Trump lately. Of course, the increased rhetoric by Colbert lately is a direct result of him pulling ahead on Fallon in the ratings. If bashing Trump is what gave him the momentum, then he's only going to accelerate the bashing even more. (Which is, of course, a good

    I'm just going to stare at that picture of Priscilla for a while…

    Wouldn't that be positive $4 septillion?

    Plus, their crime schemes are heavily dependent on the victims being exceptionally gullible and easily frightened.

    Suspect was last seen singing a song about dancing safety.

    I'm sure it's the same incident. I just don't recall him continuing with the original speech verbatim from memory. He followed the outline in his head and gave the same information, but without benefit of the prompter until it was fixed. Either way, imagine that happening to Trump…

    The writers get paid by the word, so it wouldn't have been worth your effort.

    Yeah, but he can do absolutely anything he wants to right now. First there are books to write and speeches to give to build up the bank account. Then there'll be the inevitable charitable foundation, and I think that might be a conflict of interest for anyone sitting on the Supreme Court.

    And certainly, if you've served your sentence to completion, then all of your rights should be restored. The debt to society is paid.

    There are also many levels of dementia. Jones is just at the early stages but voluntarily bowed out of public life so he wouldn't embarrass himself or diminish others' memory of him. Even so, he's probably still far sharper than anyone in the U.S. Congress whose name is followed by a "-R".

    My favorite Clinton story is how the teleprompter went out during a major speech, possibly even the State of the Union Address, and he just kept going, ad-libbing it all, without anyone knowing what had happened until after it was over. Only reporters who'd been given copies of the script beforehand knew he'd gone

    I'd love to believe that could happen, but it won't.
