it was not a bad day at all yesterday if you were democrat or just plain loved your country. the Bush administration is somehow trapped in some what could be called the beginning of a shitstorm, and it's not looking pretty right now. then if you watched the late night talk shows yesterday, here's what you would've ran across:
Letterman did his usual "George W Bush Joke That's Not Really a Joke" thing, which was funny. ...but then he did another one ...and another ...and another. it must have been four or five in a row. i tell you, the studio audience was laughing every time he was geared a new one up since they usually only do one per night. and they were funny as hell. i thought the idea was a great one when he started doing it, but if he can do more than one a night, that'll be awesome. show the president in all his ignorant glory.
and anybody catch Dean on Leno last night??
i must say, i find him very cold and unsure of himself when he's out doing public appearances. but last night i was just transfixed. he was funny, laidback, and charming as hell. nothing phony about him. he had me, i was laughing and smiling the whole time. and i'm usually very wary of politicians, especially the democrats who can't seem to want to tell us their agenda any more than the republicans do. but he didn't look like a normal presidential candidate last night, he looked like a normal guy who didn't feel the need to hide anything. he was open, honest, and funny. it was a weird combination. he won me over (for last night - i don't have any favorites right since no one is talking about specific details just yet).
