don't think she'd take the risk. It's not as if Obama on TV is a novelty.

Heh, that elicited an actual gaffaw.  :lmao:
"When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don't protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed."

Coal??  Coal??   Hardly.  Healing white light, maybe, but a fossil fuel?  Perish the thought.   :rotf:

That is why it is a primetime special, so it can't be compared to Sarah's ratings.

Decided to throw a little Star Wars Xmas video to bolster my contention...

...turns out it's just AS bad as anything we may anticipate from President I'm-Not-A-Muslim-Cuz-I-Spent-22-Years-At-A-...-No-Wait...

[youtube=425,350]VXcb7VPw59s[/youtube]

Happy Life Day?

What sort of sanitized, boiled-down, multi-cultural/anti-anything-before-it, PC bullshit is this? George Lucas is a a drooling ****tard. Jedism is half-baked Buddhist spew, now this chunky-style habenero pepper-driven diarrhea. Srsly, this was a harbinger of the willful blindness to accept one culture as good lest it lead o judgments that some are better than others. It's that mindset that Maj Hasan hid behind.

No wonder I despise Star Wars so much.

Something else for me to avoid like the plague.

Kinda makes me feel like a trend-setter for having gotten rid of all the televisions in my home almost a year ago.

I catch the weather channel and Fox News - when they're needed - either on the cell phone or the internet.  Same thing for Phineas and Ferb.

When I'm bored I either write or plot the demise of the free world.

An interview with Barack Obama!?  A conversation with the first couple!?  A tour of the WH!?  Oprah has really scored a lot of 'firsts' there; never before seen TV for sure.  I'm quite sure I have something important to do on whatever date and time the two Big Zero's will be on.
