was hilarious before 2000. I remember they were worried that Bush would not provide the material that Clinton had. And Obama has already been the subject of a number of routines.
Anyhow, TDS spoofs the TV news as much as it analyzes politics. The TV news boobs are not going away.
He's being smeared by the Dems:

Is that having seen the Clinton campaign fail, the McCain campaign decided to follow it, and make all the same mistakes. Whowever got Mark Penn to release his emails and memos deserves a gold star. The McCain campaign took the bait and ran with it!
This has truly the most interesting campaign I have ever witnessed in my 46 years.
is that David Broder has taken a buyout. I am hoping that he'll be gone by the end of the year.
The part about this topic that amazes me is no one ever talks about the methodology used to determine what is positive or negative, or what the definition of positive or negative is in the study.
My own reason for dropping the paper (NYTimes) was two-fold. I get better information from the internet, and I can't stand Bill Kristol.
Is this repayment for trying to position herself for 2012?
They get that baby in in her arms so quickly because the image is archetypal - Madonna with child.
The evangelicals are about to pivot to the Cult of Mary. Get ready for the Mary in the bath tub and Mary on the Half Shell in the front yard.
with the interview of Palin. I know many people that watch her now, rather than NBC or ABC.
The album would make a great gag gift, rather than the lastest iteration of the chia pet.
I have respect for him that he decided to do the right thing.
I would not be surprised, however, if a salicious piece of information about Gov. Crist was released in the near future.
so it would not surise me if Obama won.
And McCain is no Barry Goldwater.
Lorne Michaels is making sure there are no more jokes at the expense of his candidate?
At least I don't trowel on make up like a trollop.
my niece will see it tomorrow.
And then proclaim she wants to go to Julliard.
Is what Newt is hoping for.
He's such a toad.
But you seem to be made of fine stock. I can identify with you - I'm starting all over again for the third time in my adult life. This time is not about the big score - I need a job that can carry me to retirement and won't be outsourced to China or India.
Ahyhow, all the greatest have had to struggle over something. Keep on trying - trust that you've learned something from your experience.
is voting for Obama. He last voted dem in 1960, for JFK. If McCain has lost my father, he's lost alot of republicans, not just moderates. My father's vote should have been assumed by McCain - as a matter of fact it was until he selected Sarah Palin as his running mate. Now my father just sees McCain zigging and zagging, and he's not happy with the republican party being taken over by the religious right.
He thinks Obama is better suited for dealing with the challenges our country faces.
Place your grass clippings on old newspaper between your rows of plants. It works great, and then you just turn it into the soil at the end of the season.
There is nothing like fresh veggies and herbs from your own garden.
as reported in Slate:
"The African American gentleman who "Begged" McCain to "Hit Obama hard", citing the "Good Reverend Wright" at a rally in Wisconsin today was a paid motivational speaker.
Slate has already identified him James T Harris, Milwaulkee talk radio host. What they failed to mention is that Mr. Harris's services are for hire through his main business, IllumiNation. Homepage: http://www.jamestillumination.com. "
Mostly it appears as if they are still palying to the standard GOP script. McCain gets to look like he's setting the record straight while the negative ads continue to play, and Sarah Palin continues the same attacks.
That's gotta hurt McCain....especially with NC in play now for Obama. I have my fingers and my toes crossed.
1. Break off contact with this young man. You know exactly where its headed....only a matter of time.
2. Seek professional help. Not because there something wrong with you, per se, but you need some help sorting out your feelings about yourself, life and your husband. Under no circumstances are you to tell your husband about this until you have figured it out. Its not fair to put him through that world of hurt until you can give him good answers as to why.
3. Good luck! I've been on both sides of this street, so I can identify.
I always thought she struck a good balance between diplomacy and force (when necessary). I know of few people that could have managed the situation with the Cuban pilots and their cojones as well as she did.
Is this the "Joe sixpack" I keep hearing about?
I am hoping that these appearances on SNL will leader to greater interest in Tina Fey's current show, "30 Rock".
And I am sure the media will not call them out on their lies.
I'm waiting for the "ugly" ad that will be palyed on the news, but will only be paid to paly once, like the Willy Horton ad.
McCain's behavior will be rationalized as "doing what it takes to win". The pundits will wonder "Does Obama have what it takes" to "convince voters he's not a muslim/terrorist/homosexual".
