    Cleon Polifonte wrote a new diary post: How Does Your Favorite TV Show Predict You’ll Vote?

    2012-11-01 08:33:44View | Delete

    Thumbnail This graph over at Buzzfeed about how your favorite shows predict who you will vote for has me fascinated. Overall I understand that shows men watch are going to be likely predictors of Romney voters and shows women watch will more likely be Obama voters, but how does that explain Rachel Ray? Just because she had Ann [...]

    The Colbert Report Get More: Colbert Report Full Episodes ,Political Humor & Satire Blog ,Video Archive

    Stephen Colbert was incredibly moved by the generosity of Donald Trump’s “game changing October surprise” offer to give $5 million to the charity of Barack Obama’s choice if the President releases his college application records and transcripts, along with his passport application [...]

    Thumbnailhttp://youtu.be/poRlwmTSbLo Tina Fey spoke at the Center for Reproductive Rights Inaugural Gala and blew a well-justified fuse over the fanciful beliefs of certain GOP  candidates regarding rape:

    FEY:  I wish we could have an honest and respectful dialogue about these complicated issues, but it seems like we can’t right now. And if I have to listen to [...]

    Now I have to see Cloud Atlas. I saw Susan Sarandon last night on Craig Ferguson and it looks really wild. I’ll write a review.

    http://youtu.be/Uv2Pry_3eFA Rupert Boneham is one of the most popular Survivor contestants of all time, a three season veteran who won the $1 million audience prize in 2004 with 85% of the vote. He’s also the Libertarian candidate for governor of Indiana this year, and although he was only polling at 5% as of September, he’s drawing [...]

    We celebrate courage on the battlefield but we don’t acknowledge these amazing acts of tremendous civic courage.

    If you have a few spare minutes I highly recommend spending them watching this very moving speech by Lana Wachowski (formerly Larry Wachowski), co-director with brother Andy Wachowski of The Matrix movies and most recently Cloud Atlas. The Wachowski’s haven’t done press or made public appearances in 12 years, but in August Lana decided to [...]

    Thank goodness! I thought I was gonna have to confess to being the love child of Ann Coulter and Ron Paul to get a recommend here.

    http://youtu.be/UkIWN1PwmW0 Penn Gillette:  “If you keep voting for the lesser of two evils, things just keep getting evil.” Bill Nye:  “These multi-team systems just don’t work out, so you gotta pick one or the other.” I’m not taking sides here, I just report ‘em, ma’am. Just two — okay, three things: I’d never encourage anyone not to vote, [...]

    And people are just empty vessels through which Facebook expresses itself.

    Glad we’ve finally got that straightened out….

    But while I’ve got you here, can Sarah Silverman organize a reverse Great Schlepp where old people go to their grandkids and ask them to defend Social Securitiy?

    Just thinking out loud here, people.

    2012-10-21 20:20:37View | Delete

    Jason Sudekis’ brought his eerily evocative Mitt Romney impression to a send-up of the 2nd Presidential debate while Jay Pharoah continues his inheritance of the Barack Obama role from Fred Armisen.  New cast member Aidy Bryant appeared as moderator Candy Crowley. On the whole, the SNL sketch was less of a pissy preteen slap-fest than [...]

    http://youtu.be/x6apLNjOhrw I confess I’ve never had the endurance to watch the Honey Boo Boo show all the way through, terrified as I am that I’ll be gripped by an uncontrollable compulsion to load up on Mountain Dew and deep-fried Mars Bars. I do have a soft spot for Uncle Poodle, though . But it seemed well, a [...]
