The Daily Background

Robin Williams was on The Daily Show the other day, wearing a t-shirt that says “I’M THE DECIDER.” People laughed when he came out, and he spent all of his time bashing Republicans, instead of promoting his new film, RV. Pretty cool of him to do, and damn is the man funny when he talks politics. He said he was just happy to be on a show where he could actually talk about these things. I was laughing pretty hard. Video over at Onegoodmove (Quicktime only).

Also over at Crooks & Liars, the Colbert Report had infamous neo-con Willaim Kristol on the other night, and some pretty funny stuff was said. Colbert, of course, is a liberal who pretends to be a conservative in order to ridicule them (he pretends to be further “right” of Kristol, which ended up being kinda funny in itself). Video here (Quicktime & Windows Media choice).

Lastly, on the serious side, C&L has the much-talked-about David Shuster report on PlameGate and the danger Rove is in, which you can watch here (Quicktime & Windows Media choice).
