They spoofed Obama last weekend. I'm kind of glad to see them not spoofing only one side.

I saw this last night and was surprised at how Affleck attacked him.....until it was reviewed on Fox this morning. Apparently there is "bad blood" between Affleck and Olberman.
Just hand over the chocolate...back away slowly...far away....and you won't get hurt....

Save the Earth... it's the only planet with chocolate.

A balanced diet is chocolate in both hands.

It was hilarious..Affleck almost lost it at one point...He portrayed Olbermann to be a sick, loud, obnoxious, misleading, stupid,foolish commentator.  Perfect rendition!

I tried to watch it.  After the first minute or so, I drifted off to something else.

  • If I agree with you, then we'll both be wrong.

It ain't skewering -- it is just saying the truth.

Okay, the transcript was pretty funny.

Quote
And now as promised, a special comment. The letter was brief and to the point. "Dear Mr. Olbermann," it read. "The co-op board, having reviewed your request for an exception to its 'no pets' policy in order to accommodate your cat, Miss Precious Perfect, regretfully concludes that in consideration of the rights of the other co-op residents, such an exception is not possible at this time. Sincerely Richard Lieberstein, co-op president."

You might want to add to the title there is a transcript.

Frank gets left out of a lot of video posts.
