Alternatively, Gore could have embraced the Clinton/Gore record and run on it, rather than distancing himself from both Bill’s personal and public life.

Except Al Gore won. Some of us still remember that.

Gore was deeply boring, but not hated the way Hillary was/is. A campaign can hide boring.

It’s an incredibly sad worldview to assume that nothing about our politics affects other people, even if you think you’re unaffected.

This is a ridiculous view to anyone who has any skin in the game.  

I feel really bad for Washington reporters. McCain’s death, while tragic for his family, has been hardest felt by these poor, poor souls. Without McCain around, it will be that much harder for them to push their both sides narratives, to write fresh takes on a Maverick politician who political priorities, instincts…

It’s entirely possible that loved ones could die within that span if the GOP gets its way in trying to rip away healthcare from tens of millions of people.

This op-ed should have been printed in Comic Sans. 

He’s probably going to die peacefully in his sleep on sheets that cost more than I make in a month having no regrets and never having faced a real consequence in his life. But if I call him Cadet Bone Spurs one more time he might feel shame at least once in his life. This time for sure. 

Just as in Baghdad, the term “Green Zone” is meant to provide participants a false sense of safety.

Things that might get rid of Trump

Al Gore losing is starting to make more sense.

I love the Erran Morad scene transitions. “How to give other men compliments” superimposed over soldiers rappelling from a helicopter had me in stitches.

The difference is that no-one claims burglary is illegal to protect the burglars. Lots of people claim it is necessary to keep prostitution illegal in order to protect the prostitutes. If that is truly the goal, it’s not working.

I’m disappointed we didn’t see the Palinterview, but at least we got this:

“Ali G, Borat, and Brüno were, which is that celebrity culture and artistic scenes are often vapid, soulless, and thirsty.”

This guy chose to push the button to blow somebody up *on camera*?

Wow that Vox article is ridiculous. It’s not easy to see that Cohen’s goal is to make Alt-Righters do terrible things if it means staying loyal to Trump and their conservative beliefs, and Cohen’s hypothesis is 100% correct.If it “triggers the libs”, then the Alt-Right would definitely say the N-Word out loud, get a…

I do think some of the characters suffered from the undue expectations that people placed on the show. Once you realize that Ruddick was the new Ali G, I found him a lot more entertaining. Ali G segments were rarely about embarrassing or exposing the mark, instead just seeing how far people would humor the confident…

I expected nothing after I hated Bruno and The Dictator. So I think this is by far Cohen’s best work since Borat. Morad especially could carry his own show. I loved Gio and the gross prisoner character as well. I just ignored Showtime’s dumbass marketing and really enjoyed this. I don’t think you can fault Cohen and…
