Gregory: will Khalid Sheik Mohammed be tried
in downtown New York?
Axelrod: well why not - that’s where the crime
took place
Gregory: what about his fashion crime?
Axelrod: he may be tried in Bryant Park
Gregory: what does Obama think?
Axelrod: he thinks that t-shirt is a huge faux pas
Gregory: no I mean about putting him on trial
Axelrod: Bush put terrorists on trial all the time
and the GOP thought it was a great idea
Gregory: so New York City or not?
Axelrod: not a chance
Gregory: how could you not torture the Christmas Day bomber - are you crazy?
Axelrod: the President took an oath to uphold the laws of the United States Fluffyhaid
Gregory: but Bush repealed the Constitution in 2003
Axelrod: Obama is thinking of putting it back in place
Gregory: wow
Gregory: Obama finally told the Republicans to
fuck off this week - does this mean he will finally admit they are right about everything?
Axelrod: no stupid
Gregory: but doesn’t he have to move to the middle to get anything done?
Axelrod: I heard you were a moron Fluffy
Gregory: you won’t do anything the GOP wants
Axelrod: we accelerated the GOP tax cuts!
Gregory: will Obama skull-fuck the GOP if they continue to block good laws?
Axelrod: they won’t even vote for a commission to cut the debt - the American people hate that shit
Gregory: do they want the economy to fail so
Obama will fail?
Axelrod: of course they do
Gregory: is health care reform dead or not?
Axelrod: no the American people are suffering -
so we must do it
Gregory: Mary Landrieu said it’s dying
Axelrod: Mary - call me!
Gregory: so reform yes or no
Axelrod: dunno
Gregory: Is Obama going to cut taxes on overpaid
tv anchors?
Axelrod: no
Gregory: you hate America!
Axelrod: hey he’s proposed 400 tax cuts!
Gregory: Justice Alito mothed “bullshit” during Obama’s speech - was Obama wrong to discuss public policy during his speech to Congress?
Axelrod: Jesus Christ you’re stupid
Gregory: but the poor little court!
Axelrod: Should Hugo Chavez be able to influence American elections???
Gregory: but is a speech to the nation an appropriate place to discuss the law?
Axelrod: you really are a fucking moron
Gregory: are we better off than we were
last January?
Axelrod: you bet we are Greggers
[ break ]
Gregory: Boner you say no to everything
Boehner: yes but Obama has not ended the Bush recession and that’s not acceptable to the GOP
Gregory: Obama reached out to you by pointing
out your lies
Boehner: it was great evening - Obama gave me
tips on his great tan
Gregory: Obama said we should stop demonize
each other
Boehner: he’s a well-spoken Guinean Witch Doctor
Gregory: the debt isn’t even his fault!
Boehner: yes but it could be
Gregory: huh
Boehner: he’s a crazy leftist terrorist
Gregory: oh ok
Boehner: the people are saying ‘Stop! We don’t Washington to end the recession!’
Gregory: are you prepared to say yes to anything
at all?
Boehner: the government is going to take over health care!
Gregory: so nothing at all??
Boehner: more war, torture, and tort reform
Gregory: awesome
Boehner: what we won’t stand for is government providing health care
Gregory: if people buy health care across state lines then the federal government will regulate health care
Boehner: nonsense - the American people can regulate the whole industry by themselves
Gregory: that’s insane
Boehner: government is evil!
Gregory: you don’t support debt reform or
a spending freeze
Boehner: that’s ok but if you really want to save money cut the Pentagon
Gregory: really?
Boehner: sure - now that a liberal is President I
just realized spending is bad
Gregory: people hate the Republican party
Boehner: look we’ve learned our lesson - after
30 years we really are committed to fiscal conservatism - no really this time we mean it!
Gregory: who is the leader of the GOP?
Boehner: Ronald Reagan
Gregory: he’s dead
Boehner: but still a handsome man
Gregory: people hate you
Boehner: the Dems have a majority so they
can’t blame us for it
Gregory: but you filibuster everything
Boehner: don’t say that
Gregory: gays in the military?
Boehner: look I like gays too but why would we
want a strong military when we are in 2 wars and bad economy
Gregory: all brought to you by the GOP
Boehner: that darn Obama!
[ break ]
Gregory: ha Obama can’t walk on water!
Brooks: the GOP won’t raise taxes and the Dems won’t cut spending so we are well and truly fucked
Gregory: why can’t we all just get along
Zuckerman: I can’t believe Obama hasn’t solved the Bush recession!
Gregory: Obama claims he’s not a crazy leftist and yet you heard me demand he become a Republican
Robinson: hey Fluffy he’s already moved to the center enough!
Faber: the US economy just plain sucks
Zuckerman: he does too much and he needs a comprehensive program
Gregory: Mort tell us what Obama told you this week
Zuckerman: it was off the record but I’ll say this - Obama has a secret plan to end unemployment
Gregory: interesting
Zuckerman: Bush gave America the worst economy ever and only a government program can fix it
Gregory: no no no Gene what do you say
Robinson: sure we need a new stimulus
Brooks: it’s a mental recession because people don’t trust the media which is tragic
Gregory: people hate the government
Faber: well you know the stimulus hasn’t been spent yet - the real issue is American has been on a downward slide for 20 years
Zuckerman: don’t forget the states are cutting back all over the place
Gregory: Joe Klein said something interesting--
Robinson: stop right there
Gregory: people hate the government though so why do health care reform first?
Robinson: in Obama’s defense he had to strike
while the iron is hot
Brooks: he should have solved the recession first
Gregory: true but the GOP oppose everything
Robinson: only the bills that they co-sponsor
Gregory: can Republicans govern?
Brooks: no
Gregory: should we have a third party?
Robinson: [ laughs out loud ]
Gregory: but Newt says-
Zuckerman: the Democrats are responsible for a recession!
Gregory: is the President doomed in 2012 or will the economy ever come back?
Faber: banks need to lend but it was bad lending that go us into this in the first place
Gregory: is Obama soft on terror?? [ big grin ]
Zuckerman: ever since they let 9/11 happen the Democrats have been vulnerable on terrorism
Gregory: ha that’s all for today

State of the Union Address - President Barack Obama
State of the Union Address
President Barack Obama
January 27, 2010
******************
Madam Speaker… I give you… the POTUS!!!
[ yay ]
Obama walks in, wearing a Nobel prize and
carrying an iPad
Pelosi: and heeeeeere’s Baraaaaaaaaaack!
Obama: thank you very much
Greetings, Madam Speaker, Joe, Senators, House members, all Congresspersons - you goddamm worthless motherfuckers!
All right anyone who is not a useless piece of shit can stay - everyone else leave the room
[ Biden stands up ]
Joe you can stay too
[ Biden sits down ]
[ everyone else gets up to leave ]
All right all right you useless shitheads sit
your asses back down
[ everyone sits down ]
And let me give a shout-out to our esteemed Supreme Court justices!
Oh did I say esteemed - I meant to say soulless hypocritical corporate whores
[ Scalia and Alito stand up, wave to Congress ]
Hey Jersey Shore - sit the fuck down
yes that's right I'm wearing my motherfucking Nobel prize - check it out assholes!
[ waves Nobel prize ]
yeah I'm done with teleprompters - I'm all about my iPad now dudes!
Obama: Bull Run, Bloody Sunday, the Depression, Pearl Harbor, the day they canceled Star Trek - America has been tested many times before
Now you all know I inherited 2 wars and a motherfucking Depression
So of course we bailed out the people who created the problem
Inexplicably, things are now even suckier than they were before!
I’ve have traveled across this nation and read
your letters and holy fuck is this country in some deep shit
Most moving are the letters written in crayon - so I would like ask Michele Bachmann to please stop
Obama: Americans are tired of pettiness
Joe Wilson: No!
Obama: sit the fuck down you ignorant cracker
Obama: Americans really want one thing - to avoid sliding into poverty and having to move into a black neighborhood
But the White House is a black neighborhood now fuckers so that’s why I have never been more hopeful for America!
[ yay ]
Obama: Now let’s talk about the motherfucking bailout!
I hated it - but goddammit let’s not forget Stupid created a crisis I had to deal with and we’ve gotten most of the money back!
[ yay! ]
Obama: so I propose a fee on the banks - they can fucking afford it, those slimy motherfuckers!!!!
[ yaaaaay ]
We cut taxes for 8 million people - do you hear me fucking teabaggers!?!?!?
We didn’t raise income taxes on anyone not anybody - can you grasp that you fucking lunatics???
[ yaaay ]
And we saved 2 million jobs thanks to my stimulus bill - that’s right shitkickers!!!
And so you can see I have single-handedly turned this economy around!!
However because I heard there may still be a
few unemployed people out there, and with the whole Scott Brown fiasco, I am calling for a brand new jobs bill
[ woo-hoo ]
Banks on Wall Street are now lending again, but mostly to other criminals - so I propose taking this
30 billion I found in the White House couches and
give to tiny little community banks like
the Building & Loan
[ yaaaay ]
You get a tax cut! You get a tax cut! Everybody gets a tax cut!!!
[ yaaaay ]
And we should have better trains than those damm Japanese!
[ muted clapping ]
and fewer tax breaks - but still some - for businesses located in the Cayman fucking islands!!!
[ yaaaay ]
So send me a jobs bill or I will come back here and crack some skulls!!
Having said that - we need to rules to prevent another lost decade which is why I am proposing a Constitutional Amendment saying no member of the Bush family can ever be President again!!!
[ yaaaaay!!]
Now the GOP says we have to wait to fix the economy but that would put us behind India and I am not going to stand here an listen to them bad-mouth the United States of Fucking America!!!
[ yaaaay ]
Which is why we need to skull-fuck the banks that caused the goddamm problem!!!
Now I will wave my finger and look tough - do I look tough - no seriously do I??
We need to solve our energy problem which means building new nuclear power plants, drilling offshore, clean coal, biofuels, and harnessing the power of Brett Favre!!
[ yaaay!!!]
Now I know there are really stupid fuckers who don’t believe in global warming and to them I grow a goddamm fucking brain and pull your heads out of your asses!!!
We need to export more products which is why I have hired a Chinese company to tell me how we can make shit people want!!
[ yaaay ]
Also we need to expand our empire and seek new markets, in Asia, Africa, and the Spice federation on Tatooine!!
[ yaay ]
The best anti-poverty program around is to be born into a rich connected family and rig the system in your favor!!
But since that is not realistic for people outside this room, I also propose better community colleges!
[ yay ]
and $10,000 in college grants and no more student debt after 20 years!!
students: oh woo
oh and we still need health insurance reform
[ yaaaaaaaay ]
I did not choose to take on health care reform to get a legislative victory or to be more popular.... OBVIOUSLY!
Ha anyway let me describe my plan in a simple 7 paragraph - oh hi there’s my pretty wife
[ yayayay]
where was I - oh right the CBO says my bill would reduce the deficit by 2 trillion dollars!!
GOP: deficits don’t matter
Obama: so I completely fucked up underestimating how selfish most Americans are - my bad, America!
But I will not walk away from insuranceless Americans and neither should you
So please Republicans take a breath and vote
for my plan
Or just send me your plan and I will sign that instead
So Congress just pass something so we can all move on all righty
[ yay ]
Now let me explain something to the extremely
dense out there
Clinton gave Bush a FUCKING SURPLUS and I inherited a FUCKING DEFICIT
I wonder if Fox news will report on that???
Oh did I mention I am trying to prevent a motherfucking DEPRESSION???
So tonight, as usual, Democrats will have to be the grown-ups and freeze spending long enough to get voted out of office, where Republicans will blow the budget all over again!!!
[ YAAAAY!!!]
So I will freeze spending except for Defense, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security education and farming - that only leaves $20 billion spent on turning John Boehner orange all winter!
[ yay ]
Since you fuckers can’t even create a commission I will do it by executive order - yo Judd Gregg!!
[ yaaaay ]
Now Paul Krugman is probably freaking out - but this freeze won’t start until next year when the recession is over
[ boooo ]
hey zip it morons
Now we could of course just cut taxes and borrow the money and party all the time - but every time Republicans do that it wrecks the economy!
So let’s try so common sense fuckers!! Yeah a novel concept motherfuckers!!
The rumors are true, America - Washington doesn’t work - it’s bought and paid for by corporations - yeah I’m looking you - you fucking Supreme Court whores!!!
I’m not naïve - I’m know you are all untrustworthy snakes - that’s the very essence of our democracy
But Jesus Fucking Christ on a cracker you can’t filibuster every fucking procedure in fucking government!!!
I mean criminy people are showing up to my town meetings with fucking guns - so chill the fuck out Republicans
And Democrats - stop being such fucking pussies for god’s sake!!
And Republicans - if it really takes 60 votes to get anything done well then guess what - then you are responsible for not getting anything done!!
And while I am on the subject - GOP just shut the fuck up about national security and if you want a reminded go look at the hole in ground you created in New York City!!!
Yeah I’m killing people all over the world - don’t fuck with me people!
I am ending the Iraq war cause I am fucking
sick of it
Now let’s really support our troops and not just say we do!
And just like Superman I am going to rid the world of all motherfucking nuclear weapons!!!
Watch out Iran - Barack Hussein Fucking Obama is coming for you!!!
We’re giving out food, curing disease, and
helping Haiti!
America is about all people being equal so sometime in 2010 I will work with Congress on repealing
Don’t Ask Don’t Tell!!!
[ yaaay ]
Americans are hopeful, they have just lost faith in government, religion, business, schools,
the media… oh wait they AREN’T FUCKING HOPEFUL AT ALL!!!
Now I know people aren’t all into Hope and Change anymore but I never claimed to be your Magic Negro so I come here tonight to tell you this -- grow the fuck up America!!!
Sure I fucked up this year - but I am not alone - many, many, many, Americans are also totally fucking up and are also in complete denial about it!!
So my fellow Americans I don’t quit - I may get fired
but I won’t quit!!
Goodnight fuckers!!!

a pickup truck into the US Senate - so will
Obama resign?
Jarrett: no Obama will fight like a crazy man
Gregory: what is his motto
Jarrett: ‘The Art of the Possible’
Gregory: that’s exciting - what else
Jarrett: ‘Fight For What You Can’
Gregory: will he finally cave in to Republicans?
Jarrett: now that’s not fair - he caved in
at the start of the process
Gregory: ok now what?
Jarrett: Obama looks to getting cooperation
with Scott Brown
Gregory: oh my god
Gregory: why push for health care reform
when no one wants it?
Jarrett: hey we prevented an economic catastrophe
Gregory: no you didn’t because there were still job losses in his first year
Jarrett: Bush didn’t create a single job in 8 years!
Gregory: yeah but he gave me a cool nickname
Jarrett: Obama told me you were a moron
Jarrett: the stimulus bill saved millions of jobs and reduced our dependence on foreign oil
Gregory: Obama seems to have found his populist voice
Jarrett: this is the New Old Obama - ‘Mad as Hell
and not Going to Take it Anymore!’
Gregory: Evan Bayh is a centrist
Jarrett: no, he’s a prick and right wing nut
Gregory: anyway he says we need to cut the debt since a black man is President
Jarrett: look Obama is the first to admit that’s tough and challenging and always reads letters people send reminding him that he’s black
Gregory: Is Obama panicking and bringing back Pluffy
Jarrett: oh no everything is hunky-dory with
Team Obama
Gregory: where is his political team
Jarrett: doing studies in the Antarctic
[ break ]
Gregory: Mitch what does the GOP want?
McConnell: the American people want us to
fix health care by ending medical lawsuits
Gregory: jesus that’s it?
McConnell: no also ban junk lawsuits
Gregory: you said that already
McConnell: also cut taxes
Gregory: what about expanding health
care coverage
McConnell: yes - we do that by cutting taxes
Gregory: how do you get young people to buy
health insurance
McConnell: cut income taxes
Gregory: is health care reform dead?
McConnell: Democrats are very arrogant - if they were in touch with American people they would win elections like we do
Gregory: you only have 41 senate seats
McConnell: the voices in my head say
‘Stop Health Care!’
Gregory: what about Ben Bernanke?
McConnell: he’s a handsome man
Gregory: what is the GOP economic plan
McConnell: cut taxes
Gregory: that’s it?
McConnell: right - in this recession small businesses are very worried about capital gains taxes
Gregory: are you serious
McConnell: Obama increased the debt which
kills jobs
Gregory: that explains why Republicans run
bad economies
McConnell: we need to cut spending
Gregory: in what?
McConnell: on black Presidents
Gregory: Jim DeMint is an obstructionist moron
McConnell: hey believe me I know
Gregory: what do you want?
McConnell: I hope Obama converts to Republicanism
Gregory: sounds like a dumb plan
McConnell: it’s all we’ve got
Gregory: you won in Massachusetts but people still
hate the GOP
McConnell: hey if the Dems are going to give elections away we’ll take it
Gregory: what’s your plan for elections
McConnell: act completely crazy
Gregory: what about the Supreme Court decision?
McConnell: finally corporations have been freed from the oppressive restrictions saying they can’t buy elections
Gregory: how will you reach out to the President?
McConnell: if he’s nice we will stop yelling epithets during his speech to Congress
Gregory: are you willing to compromise that much?
McConnell: heh not really
[ break ]
Gregory: OMG Obama outperformed Coakley
and Corzine!!
Noonan: the message is that America still doesn’t like recessions

Noonan: also independents don’t like Obama now
Dionne: no this is just pure political incompetence
Gregory: good news then
Dionne: also they’ve lost active progressives
Gregory: that’s a relief for Democrats
Dionne: they look like Wall Street liberals
Gregory: they ARE Wall St. liberals
Dionne: yeah but you don’t want to look like that
Gregory: how do you avoid that image
Dionne: drive a pick up truck
Kay: there were valid reasons for health care and bailouts and other things but they never went out and explain it
Gregory: interesting
Kay: Obama was arrogant for using his alleged mandate to enact bold action
Gregory: such a contrast from Bush
Todd: what’s weird they are out there selling their plan a lot - and now they are dealing with anger from voters who hate things even if they don’t know why
Gregory: what does he now
Todd: run against Washington while running Washington
Gregory: the GOP does nothing but obstruct Obama
Noonan: no they proposed tort reform
Gregory: oh ok
Noonan: health care is the biggest issue
Gregory: the Republicans says it’s the economy
Noonan: never heard of them
Kay: dudes it’s only one election and Coakley
was an epic loser
Dionne: True but in 2009 the Constitution was amended to require 60 votes which is a problem for the Democrats
Todd: look they did things but unemployment is still high and that’s pretty much everything
Dionne: Obama needs to be like Reagan and speak in nonsensical parables
Gregory: he also needs have mindless optimism
Noonan: yes Reagan and Obama were both young Presidents
Gregory: um what?
Noonan: also Reagan had a clear plan - incite racial resentment, appear in front of a lot of flags and, build up the deficit and leave the problem for later
Gregory: people loved that
Kay: Obama is not clear and therefore he is
not competent
Gregory: I talked to the Dick Armey the head
Tea Party wacko and he says the Tea Party is
now the center
Todd: they’re a bunch of lunatics run by Fox News
Gregory: interesting
Todd: also the GOP politicians are all terrified of the Tea Partiers and so can’t horse trade with Obama
Gregory: Ed Rendell says Democrats should do things
Dionne: Democrats needs results more than Republicans because no one expects anything
from the GOP
Gregory: good point
Noonan: if we can take New Jersey and Massachusetts with Tea Party support we
can win anywhere
Gregory: thank you very much Peggy that says it all

Axelrod: George Stephanpolous you look different
Moran: I’m Terry Moran
Axelrod: there’s no need to call me names
Moran: the media says that Obama can’t connect with ordinary white people
Axelrod: Terry did you know that Clinton left a surplus and Bush left a trillion dollar deficit and
a wrecked economy?
Moran: No!
Axelrod: it’s true
Moran: what have learned from your fucked-up
first year?
Axelrod: look no one wanted to make unpopular choices to fix George Bush’s mistakes
Moran: but you did it anyway
Axelrod: look we needed real health care reform
Moran: what you do if you got a do-over?
Axelrod: well-
Moran: you don’t a do-over buddy!
Axelrod: you’re a strange one
Moran: you were caught off guard in that mysterious land called Massachusetts
Axelrod: oh we all were caught off by that one
Moran: you’re bringing back Pluffy
Axelrod: he’s enormously talented at electing good looking inspirational black men
Moran: is health care reform dead?
Axelrod: it’s on life support
Moran: that doesn’t sound good
Axelrod: let me put it this way - health care reform can still follow a balloon with its eyes
Moran: excellent news
Axelrod: indeed it is
Moran: what about this idea of slipping the House bill under the Senate door and labeling it “Publisher’s Clearing House - You May Already
Be a Winner!”?
Axelrod: good idea - but Obama won’t walk away from people who need help
Moran: what exactly is in the bill?
Axelrod: no one will know until we enact it
Moran: how odd
Moran: have you rebooted Robot Obama and reprogrammed him to be a Populist
Axelrod: yes we have - also we installed an
emotion chip
Moran: oh my
[break]
Moran: Bob your job is to get Democrats elected to Senate and your first action was to lose the seat Ted Kennedy held for 40 fucking years
Menendez: true but I’m on steep learning curve
Moran: seems like it
Menendez: small businesses blah mortgages blah services blah jobs economics blah tax relief blah middle class blah blah
Moran: Minty you said about Obama “I must break you!”
DeMint: we’re seeing a sudden American awakening of people alarmed that a black man has the power
to spend and build up debt
Moran: I noticed that
DeMint: incredibly Obama opposed tort reform so
we can’t take him seriously
Moran: I couldn’t help notice that Scott Brown didn’t call himself a Republican
DeMint: we’ve got to earn the trust of the American people by
saying Obama took power three years ago
Moran: anything else
DeMint: also waving posters of Obama as a witch doctor in Auschwitz
Menendez: hey stupid - George Bush blew a surplus and handed Obama a Depression
Moran: yeah but Obama wasted all his time on a health care plan ABC news doesn’t like
Menendez: he prevented a Great Depression!
Moran: I see your mouth moving but all I hear is you’re not bipartisan
DeMint: look I’ve never heard of this ‘George Bush’ you’re talking about but the American people are very angry at this black man is steamrolling them will all this spending and debt
Menendez: that Bush created
DeMint: who is this ‘Bush’ person you keep
referring to?
Moran: hey John Roberts says that money is speech and corporations are people!
Menendez: it’s an outrage and by the time
we’re done corporations will probably amend
the Constitution to take away rights for
mere human beings
DeMint: the teabaggers are populist so of course we need to protect businesses from evil labor unions
Moran: even foreign corporations?
DeMint: well let’s not worry about that, the point is -- wait I have to take this call from Exxon
Moran: thank for coming Senator
Exxon: thank you Terry
Moran: I was talking to DeMint

General: damm right!
Gregory: but there’s only one airport
General: and it’s ours!
Gregory: Doctor there is frustration over the
lack of smoothness helping earthquake victims in another country
Shah: jesus we starting sending aid 5 minutes
after the earthquake
Gregory: yeah but I like to whine
Shah: well calm down Fluffy
Gregory: but you didn’t send in enough
bottled water
Shah: we’re sending in water purification you
silly bint
Gregory: will the U.S. colonize Haiti?
General: that is not an affirmative, Fluffy!
Gregory: now that the crisis is over what now?
Shah: urban search and rescue, and sending
in help like food and water
Gregory: is that Detroit or Haiti?
[ break ]
Gregory: Kerry give me one word to describe Haiti
Sanders: chaos
Gregory: wow it sounds bad
Sanders: but actually things are getting better
Gregory: could you really find people alive
after all this time?
Sanders: yes this happens every time the media covers an earthquake Fluffers
Gregory: how come it isn’t easy to get supplies to
an island devastated by an earthquake?
Sanders: why is he sitting there while I’m stuck
in fucking Haiti?
Producer: uh Kerry you said that out loud
Sanders: oh
[ break ]
Gregory: Bush what’s your biggest concern
right now?
Bush: them Cowboys have no defense!
Gregory: Bill?
Clinton: the Haitian police force is on the job
- with no uniforms or weapons
Gregory: ok - should the US colonize Haiti?
Clinton: oh no - just an agreement allowing the
US temporary control of the area
Native Americans: uh oh
Bush: I’ve been through crises but people will
forget after a while
Gregory: like how you were president on 9/11?
Bush: no there were no attacks when I was President - just ask Saint Rudy
Clinton: I believe Haiti will be back and better
than ever!
Gregory: jesus you’re an optimist
Clinton: look at my life - wouldn’t you be?
Gregory: should we really give so much money
to all these former slaves?
Bush: good point but we can’t neglect Haiti when
it can get us on tv looking compassionate
Gregory: why should we care about this far-away backward corrupt region?
Clinton: hey I like Alaska
Gregory: what did you learn about your fuck-ups
in Katrina and everything else?
Bush: I learn you can’t trust shysters
Gregory: dear lord you do have a way with words
Gregory: Did Obama politicize this earthquake?
Bush: what are you talking about?
Gregory: I dunno
Gregory: Bill why can’t we just get along like this
all the time?
Clinton: I heard you were a moron
[ break ]
Gregory: Karen you witnessed Bush completely
fuck up the Katrina response
Hughes: indeed so I ought to know
Gregory: Bush is back!
Hughes: yeah it’s weird ‘Bush’ and ‘disaster relief’ don’t go well together
Gregory: John who’s winning Haiti vs. Katrina?
Podesta: oh Obama of course - he’s agile and
he's got alacrity
Gregory: Haiti was just about to turn the corner!
Woodward: right!
Gregory: but what’s the commitment in this U.S.
to help Haiti even more??
Woodward: like we’ve done so much before
Gregory: right
Woodward: the winguts and liberal bloggers hate seeing Clinton and Stupid being nice to each other
Gregory: speaking of idiots - Mark Halperin!
Halperin: this is just like the underpants bomber
but this time Obama is getting it right
Gregory: Limbaugh says we should let people die
Halperin: and the GOP won’t repudiate him!
Gregory: speaking of triviality - polls say Obama loses to “someone else”
Podesta: my god that’s stupid
Hughes: he has to stop blaming everything on Bush
Podesta: but Bush was the worst President
of all time
Hughes: oh we all inherit challenges
Podesta: Bush nearly wrecked this country!
Hughes: but Evan Bayh says Obama is too liberal!
Podesta: well Evan Bayh is an idiot
Woodward: you are all look foolish - people thought Reagan was doomed in 1982 and later he won every U.S. state but Haiti
Halperin: Obama is good at mechanics but he’s not inspiring people which is ironic
Hughes: no it was Bush who rescued the economy by giving billions of free money to rich people who ruined the U.S. economy
Podesta: jesus fuck
Hughes: Obama lied to people - he never said
he would pass health care reform!
Gregory: Karen he ran on health care!
Hughes: well anyway he does too much
Gregory: we never had the problem under Bush
Hughes: exactly!
Gregory: Obama wants to tax the banks who
got welfare
Woodward: well they can afford it - they are giving out bonuses
Gregory: what does Bush think about Cheney going out and saying totally insane things?
Hughes: frankly he’s scared of Dick Cheney
Gregory: but what does he think?
Hughes: well I think Obama should have tortured
the underwear bomber
Gregory: you’re sick
Gregory: OMG a Democrat might lose in Massachusetts!
Halperin: that’s good news for Obama so he
can enact a weak health care reform bill
Woodward: Charles Krauthammer says Obama is a socialist
Gregory: I thought he was Kenyan
Hughes: he’s a communist
Podesta: I can’t believe Massachusetts will replace Teddy with a teabagging centerfold
Gregory: how do we defeat health care reform
Hughes: oh no I hope they don’t pass health care reform!
Gregory: not the briar patch!
Podesta: people said that about the same bill in Massachusetts but guess what they love it now
Hughes: but it still isn’t perfect so we should go back to the status quo
Gregory: even if it destroys America?
Hughes: it’s the Republican way Greggers

Hughes: yeah it’s weird ‘Bush’ and ‘disaster relief’ don’t go well together
Gregory: John who’s winning Haiti vs. Katrina?
Podesta: oh Obama of course - he’s agile and
he's got alacrity
Gregory: Haiti was just about to turn the corner!
Woodward: right!
Gregory: but what’s the commitment in this U.S.
to help Haiti even more??
Woodward: like we’ve done so much before
Gregory: right
Woodward: the winguts and liberal bloggers hate seeing Clinton and Stupid being nice to each other
Gregory: speaking of idiots - Mark Halperin!
Halperin: this is just like the underpants bomber
but this time Obama is getting it right
Gregory: Limbaugh says we should let people die
Halperin: and the GOP won’t repudiate him!
Gregory: speaking of triviality - polls say Obama loses to “someone else”
Podesta: my god that’s stupid
Hughes: he has to stop blaming everything on Bush
Podesta: but Bush was the worst President
of all time
Hughes: oh we all inherit challenges
Podesta: Bush nearly wrecked this country!
Hughes: but Evan Bayh says Obama is too liberal!
Podesta: well Evan Bayh is an idiot
Woodward: you are all look foolish - people thought Reagan was doomed in 1982 and later he won every U.S. state but Haiti
Halperin: Obama is good at mechanics but he’s not inspiring people which is ironic
Hughes: no it was Bush who rescued the economy by giving billions of free money to rich people who ruined the U.S. economy
Podesta: jesus fuck
Hughes: Obama lied to people - he never said
he would pass health care reform!
Gregory: Karen he ran on health care!
Hughes: well anyway he does too much
Gregory: we never had the problem under Bush
Hughes: exactly!
Gregory: Obama wants to tax the banks who
got welfare
Woodward: well they can afford it - they are giving out bonuses
Gregory: what does Bush think about Cheney going out and saying totally insane things?
Hughes: frankly he’s scared of Dick Cheney
Gregory: but what does he think?
Hughes: well I think Obama should have tortured
the underwear bomber
Gregory: you’re sick
Gregory: OMG a Democrat might lose in Massachusetts!
Halperin: that’s good news for Obama so he
can enact a weak health care reform bill
Woodward: Charles Krauthammer says Obama is a socialist
Gregory: I thought he was Kenyan
Hughes: he’s a communist
Podesta: I can’t believe Massachusetts will replace Teddy with a teabagging centerfold
Gregory: how do we defeat health care reform
Hughes: oh no I hope they don’t pass health care reform!
Gregory: not the briar patch!
Podesta: people said that about the same bill in Massachusetts but guess what they love it now
Hughes: but it still isn’t perfect so we should go back to the status quo
Gregory: even if it destroys America?
Hughes: it’s the Republican way Greggers

***********************
Stewart: everyone on earth hates your fucking
guts and fears your broken soul
Yoo: yeah but people love you so it’s the same
Stewart: it seems like they came to you and
said ‘give us permission to crush a child’s balls’
and you said ‘how hard?’
Yoo: that’s true but we were under threat by
nutjobs with boxcutters
Stewart: so you weren’t following the law
but panicking?
Yoo: no there’s a special law to follow if you’re
really really scared
Stewart: I didn’t know that was in the Constitution
Yoo: Congress and the Supreme Court could
have stopped us
Stewart: really how?
Yoo: they could have defunded our ball crushing
Stewart: if they know you're crushing
balls day and night
Yoo: all they had to do was follow the screams
Stewart: but I thought we signed a treaty
banning torture
Yoo: yeah but there’s nothing in the treaty
about not crushing balls
Stewart: but we prosecuted people for torture
Yoo: but not for ball crushing
Stewart: I’m so confused
Yoo: look we either ball crush or we give the terrorists Miranda rights
Stewart: no in between?
Yoo: dude I don’t make the rules
Stewart: according to you the Framers wanted
us to have a dictatorship
Yoo: yes but only when a President has allowed
a massive terror attack to happen - then you
can go to town
Stewart: I see
Yoo: our best Presidents were all radical
dictator war Presidents
Stewart: why did you even bother following
the law when your whole philosophy is
‘terrortime baby - fuck the law’
Yoo: look I never actually told Bush ball
crushing was legal
Stewart: jesus christ I don’t know if that the
worst thing I’ve heard or not
Yoo: look America needs a Lincoln or Hitler or
Bush even if the price is sometimes a power-mad fascist like Nixon or Obama
Stewart: you sir, are one sick, sick man
Yoo: thank you Jon
Stewart: no really I thank you - now I understand
the banality of evil that allowed the Holocaust
to happen

**************************
Gregory: why did Janet Napolitano say things went great even though a terror attack was thwarted?
Brennan: I heard you were a moron
Gregory: what did the CIA know about underwear before 12/24?
Brennan: Boxer-briefs are the most comfortable
way to go
Gregory: how do we win the war on terror?
Brennan: degrading people who hate us
Gregory: how could the government let underpants-boy on a plane!?!
Brennan: calm down Fluffy
Gregory: but I’m scared!
Brennan: the government has to be seamless
and perfect every day
Gregory: dear god
Gregory: should we get rid of privacy rights?
Brennan: maybe - the Dutch have full nude
body scanners
Gregory: yeah but they are all tall and incredibly good looking
Brennan: that’s a good point
Gregory: why aren’t we torturing this Nigerian kid?
Brennan: oh I don’t know - the law or something
Gregory: boooooorrrring!!!!!
Brennan: we’ve got Jack McCoy getting a
strong plea deal right now
Gregory: should we send accused terrorists
who hate us back to Yemen?
Brennan: like George W. Bush did?
Gregory: never heard of him - did he work
for Dick Cheney?
Brennan: something like that
Gregory: President Cheney says Obama surrendered to terrorists
Brennan: Dick should spend a little more time not shooting his friends and a little time undermining
the President of the United States
Gregory: when are we going to catch Osama?
Brennan: we had him at Tora Bora and Bush
let him get away
Gregory: what’s the deal with Yemen anyway?
Hayden: it’s terror-central
Gregory: you released terrorists from Gitmo
and sent them to Yemen!
Hayden: that’s true but we had to - we ran out of orange chicken
Gregory: what mistakes did Bush make?
Hayden: we were too soft on terrorists
Gregory: right
Gregory: what about right to privacy?
Chertoff: plane travelers have the right to life dammit!
Gregory: isn’t the underwear bombing proof
that the Bush system doesn’t work?
Chertoff: hey Fluffy it worked for 7 years when we never had an attack or attempted attack
Gregory: should we have full body scanners?
Chertoff: oh yes and the fact that I get rich off
selling it is irrelevant
Gregory: what’s it’s called?
Chertoff: “Scan-Wow!”
Gregory: ok
Chertoff: blame those civil liberty loving Dutch -
we should bypass them entirely
Gregory: pass the Dutchie on the left hand side
Gregory: some terror guy told me that 90% of terrorists are young muslim men
Chertoff: well that person was using you to spout bullshit Fluffers
Gregory: unpossible
Gregory: should Dick Cheney criticize Obama or does that make him unpatriotic like Dick Cheney would say?
Hayden: people need to stop hyperventilating
Gregory: oh noes!
Gregory: isn’t Obama weak on terror?
Hayden: no but he could torture more
Chertoff: Obama has said we are at war but putting KSM on trial in New York city will weaken America
Gregory: because terrorists will attack if they think they will only go to a supermax prison
[ break ]
Gregory: how has Obama handled his first 3:00 a.m.
phone call?
Brokaw: his failure to panic proved we are vulnerable to suicidal teenagers
Brooks: Obama failed but look bad things happen and people should stop crying every time some failed underpants bomber fucks up
Gregory: why does Dick Cheney whine so much?
Dionne: because he’s a dishonest ghoul
Gregory: that’s true
Dionne: even Bush officials think he’s a hypocritical lunatic
Gregory: Doris this is not as much fun as other wars
Goodwin: because we didn’t raise taxes or do anything but go shopping
Brokaw: we learned that we can’t kill every single muslim on earth
Gregory: too bad
Brooks: this all started in Iran in 1979 and we can see that regime dying right now
Gregory: so what do we do about it?
Brooks: cut off supplies on gasoline and pretend to be tough with a lot of empty words
Dionne: what a weasel you are david
Goodwin: this proves that Obama making diplomatic overtures to China has worked
Brooks: me strong!
Brokaw: the teabaggers rule America!
Dionne: sure Tom but repealing the health plan won’t be popular either
Brokaw: warble warble
Brooks: most people oppose the Obamacare plan
Goodwin: not the actual plan just the fake Fox news version of the plan
Brooks: no one knows what’s in the plan! and they oppose the plan!
Goodwin: idiot
Brooks: it rations care! and costs too much!
Brokaw: we should kill old useless people
Gregory: like you?
Brokaw: arble garble
Gregory: this decade really sucked
Goodwin: yes but epic failure represents great opportunity
Brokaw: this is nothing - the 60s really sucked
Brooks: the future belongs to the teabaggers
Gregory: good god
Dionne: Obama has to show government can work and that will show how stupid the teabaggers are
Brokaw: 9/11 general motors wall street urble burble

John Brennan
Rep. Pete Hoekstra
Sen. Susan Collins
Sen. Joe Lieberman
Rep. Jane Harman
*******************
Moran: John why did we close the Yemen embassy
Brennan: well as soon we found out we had
one we closed it
Moran: why?
Brennan: dude the hostage crisis killed Jimmy Carter - we’re not going to let that happen again
Moran: when are we invading Yemen?
Brennan: we don’t have to - the happy little
Yemen government is going to get al qaeda for us
Moran: really?
Brennan: ha no just kidding
Moran: who dropped the ball with that Nigerian
kid with the explosive underpants?
Brennan: from now on whenever a dad calls and says ‘hey my kid is a terror loving-lunatic’ we
won’t put them on hold
Moran: bad news for liz cheney
Brennan: indeed
Moran: how come the CIA is stupider than Google
or Facebook?
Brennan: free market baby
Moran: that’s sad
Brennan: just watch college football and enjoy it
Moran: Should Janet Napolitano be fired because
of underwear boy?
Brennan: If Bush were President she’d get the
Medal of Feardom
Moran: you mean freedom
Brennan: right
Moran: 7 CIA officers were just killed in Afghanistan
Brennan: we’re trying to make sure it will never happen again
Moran: we could leave Afghanistan
Brennan: no we can’t because there are cunning swarthy people in that far off land in central asia
Moran: Pete you just got back from Yemen -
did you run into Osama bin Laden?
Hoekstra: sadly the innocent people we tortured at Gitmo are not happy about it
Moran: who knew?
Hoekstra: also there are many Americans who look forward to more terror attacks under Obama
Moran: we’ll get to Dick Cheney later
Lieberman: we have to declare war on Yemen
Moran: why did Janet Napolitano let the underoo bomber kill all those Americans?
Collins: I don’t know maybe she hates America
Lieberman: we need bipartisan hearings to determine which brown people we should kill next
Moran: hasn’t the time come to stop releasing the innocent people we tortured - I mean if they didn’t hate us before they sure do now
Harman: we should let them go just not send them
to Yemen cause it’s a crazy place
Moran: but you think we should release them?
Harman: yes let them live free in a prison in Illinois
Moran: what should America do now?
Harman: we need a global anti-terror strategy
Moran: what an interesting idea
Harman: also we should use Bush’s privacy
and civil liberties board
Moran: how would that help
Harman: when we repeal all civil rights they can
give us cover
Moran: isn’t it obvious that we can’t stop every attack?
Hoekstra: kill kill kill!
Moran: shouldn’t we start profiling brown people?
Collins: to me the real question is why wasn’t the rule invoked that whenever your dad calls an embassy about you your visa is revoked?
Moran: should this teenage Nigerian be put on trial?
Lieberman: no this misguided kid should be put
in a military brig, tortured, and disappeared - that will prove the terrorists are evil!
Moran: what about Gitmo?
Lieberman: I know Gitmo has a bad reputation-
Moran: because of the non-stop gruesome tortures?
Lieberman: yes but other than that it’s an incredibly humane facility - after all they have free health care and involuntary snorkeling
Moran: any other crazy ideas?
Lieberman: yes the CIA should be in charge of visas and also Africans should not be allowed to fly
Moran: isn’t Dick Cheney right that Obama doesn’t care about terrorism
Harman: no that’s stupid
Moran: but Dick is so strong - he shot an
innocent guy!
Harman: we’re not at war on terrorism - we’re
at war with al qaeda
Moran: Pete isn’t it disgusting to raise money for governor off an attempted terror attack
Hoektra: hey I finally got Obama to recognize that threats are real
Moran: thank for coming you repulsive man
Lieberman: thank you terry
Moran: I was talking to Pete Hoekstra
Joe: oh sorry - force of habit

Meet The Press - December 20, 2009
Guests:
David Axelrod
Howard Dean
Joe Scarborough
Markos Moulistas
Ed Gillespie
Tavis Smiley
****************************
Gregory: Axel did you win or sell out all your principles for a terrible health bill?
Axelrod: both
Gregory: explain
Axelrod: we’re going to help a few people without insurance and reduce the deficit by a trillion dollars
Gregory: please say “mission accomplished”
so I can make fun of you for it
Axelrod: look I know liberals are mad but Paul Krugman supports it and it will end all preexisting conditions
Gregory: will any part of the House bill survive?
Axelrod: maybe the first “whereas”
Gregory: why the fuck do we need 60 votes to
pass laws in the Senate?
Axelrod: it’s time-honored abject stupidity
Gregory: we asked some Poles and they don’t understand this bill at all
Axelrod: when you tell people what we pretend
is in the bill then people love it
Gregory: it’s so sad that Republicans once supported Medicare but now Obama can’t
get any get GOP votes - doesn’t that prove that Obama is a total failure?
Axelrod: I heard you were a moron Fluffy -
but you’re an obtuse hack too
Gregory: [ fluffs hair ] um what
Axelrod: hey idiot - the GOP has become an obstructionist party of total assholes
Gregory: yeah but they’re rich and so funny
Axelrod: can I talk to Luke Russsert - at least
he’s adorably stupid
Gregory: Howard Dean says this bill sucks
Axelrod: well we says it does good and I’d like
to see him get a better bill enacted
Gregory: Obama promised that Ben Nelson
and Joe Lieberman would support a public option
Axelrod: that’s ridiculous - this a good bill and
that’s the important thing
Gregory: but you betrayed liberals
Axelrod: no we didn’t - we worked in the legislative process available to us
Gregory: but this is a compromise!
Axelrod: oh noes!
Gregory: Obama didn’t fight for a public option!
Axelrod: yes he did - but this is how the system works
Gregory: will the bill bring overall health costs
down or not?
Axelrod: it will reduce the deficits and reduce premiums
Gregory: but a CAT scan is still expensive!
Axelrod: I’d like to scan your brain someday
Gregory: don’t bother you won’t find anything
Axelrod: ok
Gregory: have you killed the Democrats’ chances
in 2010?
Axelrod: The President doesn’t worry about polls - he’s trying to help the nation long-term
Gregory: but if the Democrats lose seats in 2010
that will prove Americans don’t need health care
Axelrod: even though President always lose seats
in the first Congressional election
Gregory: right
[ break ]
Gregory: What's up Doc
Dean: it's snowing and you're a dancing fool
Gregory: Howard is the health care bill horrible
or great?
Dean: it’s been improved since I hated on it but
it still isn’t perfect
Gregory: so should it be supported or not?
Dean: the problem is the whole thing revolves around for-profit insurance companies
Gregory: I am going to challenge you by citing criticisms of Obama
Dean: there was an unseemly scramble for votes
Gregory: don’t you need votes for pass laws?
Dean: naww
Gregory: you are not in office - so you will your
fake vote not go to this bill?
Dean: No!
Gregory: do you expect the White House to put
in a public option or not
Dean: no - Obama is not a fighter like me
Gregory: so without a public option you would
vote ‘no’?
Dean: a 30 year fight with insurance companies
is a bad thing
Gregory: and killing the bill would prevent that
Dean: right
Gregory: Vicki Kennedy says we can’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good
Dean: yeah but I am in favor of getting the bill right
Gregory: I see
Gregory: John McCain says you are right
and we should let the Republicans write this bill
Dean: I hate Republicans and they are fucking evil
Gregory: so I hear you saying you are leaving
the Democratic party
Dean: Calm down Fluffy - you stupid fuck
Gregory: Is this internal fight going to ruin the Democratic party?
Dean: I know that’s your dream but if I were that room I’d answer you by punching you in the face
Gregory: ha ha
Dean: I’m not kidding
Gregory: so what went wrong
Dean: it’s a damn shame that a few asshole Senators can hold up legislation
Gregory: take your snow and leave Doc
Dean: fuck you
[ break ]
Gregory: Markos I love you on “Two and Half Men”
Moulitsas: I’m not on that show
Gregory: what? who are you then?
Moulitsas: I have a blog called the Daily Kos
Gregory: alright Kos is this health care bill a horrible compromise?
Moulitsas: no it only reinforces the existing system and if deductibles are too high poor people are screwed
Scarborough: ha ha insurance stocks are higher
ha ha
Gregory: Tavis Obama didn’t fight for the public option and this isn’t reform!
Smiley: sadly I am your third guest to agree that Obama didn’t fulfill his promises and he didn’t
crush the insurance lobby
Gillespie: sadly I must agree that this bill is an unmitigated disaster because this will help people get free medical care which will only encourage
poor lazy people to get sick
Scarborough: ha ha this bill will elect Republicans ha ha
Gregory: Obama says this bill takes on the insurance companies
Moulitsas: well sure but we need to crush the insurers - they are evil
Gregory: Kos isn’t passing federal legislation a little more difficult that idealistic liberals think?
Moulitsas: true but insurers spend millions on lobbying and the GOP can’t be reasoned with
Gregory: ok then
Smiley: You need to stand on principle! Screw gradualism or incrementalism! Ain’t gonna
get it done!
Gregory: Ed how do answer the charge that Obama is unpopular?!!?
Gillespie: he’s a socialist!
Gregory: but people hate the GOP too
Gillespie: no I took a poll that said people age 90
and over support the GOP
Gregory: Joe Scar how do answer the charge that people hate liberals?
Scarborough: it’s all these distractions like health care and wars and winning the Nobel prize -
we need jobs! Obama needs to be in Cleveland
not Oslo!
Moulitsas: Obama’s polls are down because he’s
not liberal enough!
Gillespie: no Obama’s radically partisan and not Republican enough!
Moulitsas: this nation hates Republicans
Gillespie: we’ll see about that Daily
Moulitsas: my name is Markos
Smiley: You have to stand on principle! Keep your eye on the ball! Jobs jobs jobs!
Gregory: Joe Obama is a total failure - Scar how does he turn it around
Scarborough: he needs to reach out to Republicans and crush the teachers unions and tell Henry Waxman to fuck off
Gregory: that makes perfect sense if you are ingesting large amounts of mind altering drugs
Scarborough: ha [ sniffs glue ]
Scarborough: ha ha when has he reached out to Republicans like the U.S. Constitution requires??
Moulitsas: the base is disenchanted - but the way
to get bloggers really excited bloggers is regulatory reform
Gregory: you’re a nerd
Moulitsas: blog power!

Gregory: Obama says this bill takes on the insurance companies
Moulitsas: well sure but we need to crush the insurers - they are evil
Gregory: Kos isn’t passing federal legislation a little more difficult that idealistic liberals think?
Moulitsas: true but insurers spend millions on lobbying and the GOP can’t be reasoned with
Gregory: ok then
Smiley: You need to stand on principle! Screw gradualism or incrementalism! Ain’t gonna
get it done!
Gregory: Ed how do answer the charge that Obama is unpopular?!!?
Gillespie: he’s a socialist!
Gregory: but people hate the GOP too
Gillespie: no I took a poll that said people age 90
and over support the GOP
Gregory: Joe Scar how do answer the charge that people hate liberals?
Scarborough: it’s all these distractions like health care and wars and winning the Nobel prize -
we need jobs! Obama needs to be in Cleveland
not Oslo!
Moulitsas: Obama’s polls are down because he’s
not liberal enough!
Gillespie: no Obama’s radically partisan and not Republican enough!
Moulitsas: this nation hates Republicans
Gillespie: we’ll see about that Daily
Moulitsas: my name is Markos
Smiley: You have to stand on principle! Keep your eye on the ball! Jobs jobs jobs!
Gregory: Joe Obama is a total failure - Scar how does he turn it around
Scarborough: he needs to reach out to Republicans and crush the teachers unions and tell Henry Waxman to fuck off
Gregory: that makes perfect sense if you are ingesting large amounts of mind altering drugs
Scarborough: ha [ sniffs glue ]
Scarborough: ha ha when has he reached out to Republicans like the U.S. Constitution requires??
Moulitsas: the base is disenchanted - but the way
to get bloggers really excited bloggers is regulatory reform
Gregory: you’re a nerd
Moulitsas: blog power!

This Week With George Stephanopoulos - December 20, 2009
Guests:
David Axelrod - White House Senior Advisor
Sen. John Kyl - (R-Arizona)
***************************
Stephanopoulos: speaking of your health care victory 6 hours ago - Republicans says it is already a failure because they don’t like it
Axelrod: that is shocking
Stephanopoulos: isn’t it terrible to pass a bill
without a single vote from members of a party everyone hates?
Axelrod: no it’s a good bill and we will pass it without the votes of the party which thinks Obama was born a muslim-Kenya witch doctor in Indonesia
Stephanopoulos: but this is a faith based bill
Axelrod: no 60 senators support the bill representing most of the country - plus this law
will help people with preexisting conditions and many others without health insurance
Stephanopoulos: Nelson and Holy Joe will fillybuster the bill if does any good for anyone beside rich evil insurers
Axelrod: that’s true but Nelson can be bribed
and Holy Joe can be reasoned with
Stephanopoulos: really?
Axelrod: no actually he’s a slimy fucker
Stephanopoulos: you are going to raise
taxes on Cadillacs!
Axelrod: also Yugos
Stephanopoulos: will this bill ban abortion
or make it mandatory?
Axelrod: the compromise is that women who want an abortion will have to drive really far to get one and we thinks that’s fair
Stephanopoulos: what about Stupak?
Axelrod: fuck him
Stephanopoulos: you called Howard Dean insane
Axelrod: well I’m not a psychiatrist but he is
pretty weird
Stephanopoulos: but liberals gave up everything and Nelson got whatever he wanted
Axelrod: it’s true but we needed the 60 votes
Stephanopoulos: liberals don’t want to hear
excuses about math - they want results
Axelrod: yes I noticed that
Axelrod: look I hear what Howard Dean is saying but this bill helps millions of people so it would be bad to kill it
Stephanopoulos: is Iran about to nuke Kansas?
Axelrod: maybe
Stephanopoulos: what are you going to do about it?
Axelrod: we are going work in Iran to sow divisions within both liberals and conservatives so nothing can ever get done
Stephanopoulos: can you really do that?
Axelrod: we did it in the U.S. so we can do it there
Stephanopoulos: Kyl is this bill evil?
Kyl: the American people are very much against
this bill unveiled 24 hours ago so we must not allow it to pass
Stephanopoulos: I see
Kyl: also the fuckers in Nebraska get this for free - no fair
Stephanopoulos: why do you hate Nebraska?
Kyl: Hey George - why do six different states border Nebraska?
Stephanopoulos: I don’t know
Kyl: Nebraska sucks
Stephanopoulos: ha good one
Stephanopoulos: Dick what about all the charge
that no one has seen this bill?
Durbin: jesus fuck they read the entire bill on
the floor yesterday
Kyl: yeah but that was during “Jersey Shore” marathon so no one in the Republican caucus was watching
Stephanopoulos: Kyl the CBO says it will lower the debt and will cover 30 million people - who wouldn’t support that??
Kyl: yeah but that still leaves 20 million uninsured
Stephanopoulos: oh I forgot you were insane
Kyl: also insurance premiums will still go up
and also people will still get sick
Durbin: jesus what sick lying fucker you are
Stephanopoulos: Dick will you commit to voting Republican if you have not eliminated illness
by 2015?
Durbin: this covers 94% of Americans!
Kyl: the liberals broke a truce that the GOP would pretend to be against abortion except for their own daughters and liberals would pretend to protect poor women without doing anything for them
Durbin: hey we still give free money to the Catholic church so they should shut the fuck up
Stephanopoulos: what about the looming threat
of global warming?
Durbin: the wily Chinese are taking all our green jobs - the jolly green giant is being replaced by Godzilla!
Kyl: I’m against sending China money
Stephanopoulos: you really are a weirdo

************************
Gregory: Obama says Wall Street screwed
over the nation
Romer: yeah pretty much
Gregory: so is the U.S. fucked?
Romer: we were but things are turning around
Gregory: would financial reforms have prevented
the major meltdown?
Romer: that’s the point behind the new laws
Gregory: but answer my hypothetical question!
Romer: are you some kind of idiot?
Gregory: Obama says Wall Street doesn’t get it
Romer: they don’t - unless by ‘it’ you mean free government money in which case they do
Gregory: but Wall Street creates jobs on Main street - why punish them?
Romer: because they’re total fucktards
Gregory: But doesn’t Obama want Goldman Sachs to make money so it can trickle down to the
little people?
Romer: calm down Fluffy
Gregory: how long is this recession going to last?
Romer: we’ll go up and down for a while
Gregory: is the recession over?
Romer: no it will be over when Obama is reelected and we have secure jobs
Gregory: why didn’t Obama declare War on Unemployment
Romer: Greggers we immediately passed the
biggest stimulus in the history of the nation
Gregory: but the stimulus failed
Romer: I don’t have crystal balls
Gregory: I think Mitt Romney has those
Gregory: you said we should have a
$1.2 trillion stimulus
Romer: yeah well I was proven fucking right
Gregory: but shouldn’t have it been bigger?
Romer: it was the best we could get from the assholes in Congress
Gregory: the L.A. Times says we have to cut the deficit first
Romer: ah morons abound
Gregory: so Obama doesn’t care about stealing
from our children?
Romer: recovery is the only way to cut the deficit
Gregory: so you will raise taxes, increase the debt and kill America
Romer: 1 in 10 of Americans are unemployed dancing dave!
Gregory: so how do you pay for it??
Romer: you borrow money in a recession you fool
Gregory: so how will we know when it’s over
Romer: when unemployment is at 5%
Gregory: Ok
Romer: hey you’ve held this job for a year
which amazes me
[break]
Gregory: Alan no offense but I get mixed messages from the White House
Greenspan: the bad news is we’re at the bottom but the good news is I’m a bottom
Gregory: Jenny 8,675,309
Granholm: what?
Gregory: that’s the number of jobs Michigan has lost
Granholm: it would have been much worse without Obama’s efforts
Romney: the economy is growing but the stimulus failed and killed jobs
Gregory: some would say that Romney is partisan yet some would say the sun shines out of his ass
Cramer: right
Gregory: some would say Obama is a failure but on the other hand the Republicans had a lot of great ideas like a payroll tax holiday
Cramer: where’s the money!?
Gregory: some would say Reagan was a great President - how do answer this charge Ayn Greenspan?
Greenspan: we did that by wearing onions on
our belts which was the style at the time
Gregory: what jobs will we create - I mean we suck
at everything
Granholm: we’ll make solar panels - we’ll aim them
at Mitt Romny’s ass
Romney: Let’s take the stimulus bill and use that money to allow business to deduct taxes and let’s take wasted TARP money and use the money being returned from banks to give that to banks
Cramer: business are hiring in Brazil and Russia because businesses have successfully captured the governments there
Gregory: [ high pitched voice ]
a lot of people say the U.S. has no commitment to capitalism and businesses are terrified of government!
Greenspan: banks have lots of money - they just won’t lend it because most small businesses would
lose it
Gregory: the President attacks Wall Street which
is the Happiest Place on Earth - why is he doing that???
[ starts sobbing ]
Granholm: our auto companies would love start making good cars but they need loans to stop manufacturing junk
Gregory: maybe American products just suck
Romney: the problem is people are terrified of financial rules and possible good health care
and so of course make crap
Gregory: Krugman says unemployment is bad
Greenspan: sorry the Fed has done all it could possibly do - TARP was very necessary but inflation is scary so people should just eat apple cores
Gregory: what about Fed independence?
Greenspan: Oh I think it’s terrible that Congress would threaten it
Gregory: like when you shilled for the Bush
tax cuts?
Greenspan: I like pudding!
Gregory: Mitt how do you answer
the charge that Obama is soft on evil?
Romney: [ rebooting ]
Cramer: hey we have to raise taxes to pay
for our wars
Romney: we can pay for wars and lower taxes
- all we have to do cut pay for government workers who make much more money than people in the private sector
Gregory: where will unemployment be next year?
Greenspan: much lower, luckily because of
census employment
Gregory: that’s government
Greenspan: naptime!
Gregory: should we raise interest rates?
Greenspan: we should change rates to 5 bees
for a dollar
Granholm: we can’t be all doom and gloom
- I mean at least we all have jobs
Greenspan: not me
Granholm: be quiet or I’ll put you in place we saw on “America’s Worst Nursing Homes”
Greenspan: I’ll be good
Gregory: ok that’s the final word

This Week With George Stephanopoulos - December 13, 2009
Guests:
Larry Summers
Rep. Eric Cantor
John Podesta
Ed Gillespie
Arianna Huffington
April Ryan
***************************
Stephanopoulos: Larry the economy is total disaster and John McCain’s economist says you’re a loser
Summers: look we prevented a Depression and
you know these things happen in stages, first you have a New Deal then another Depression and then a World War
Stephanopoulos: Is Obama working hard on
making all that happen?
Summers: yes he is
Stephanopoulos: so when does the U.S. economy go from being Fucked Up to merely Pretty Shitty?
Summers: we see Quite Crappy spring followed
by a Sucky Summer
Stephanopoulos: are we going to have a second stimulus?
Summers: don’t focus so much on how much
we spend George the best things in life a free - like strongly worded letters sent to banks telling them
to lend
Stephanopoulos: but you’re spending so much money boosting the economy just because we
are in an economic crisis!
Summers: you know nothing about math George - it’s like talking a woman!
Stephanopoulos: oooh
Summers: we’re spending on infrastructure and health care
Stephanopoulos: speaking of that how can the President possibly sign a bill that spends money
to save people’s lives - I mean it’s shocking
Summers: that’s true but we are going to tell
people get preventive health care which is very conservative
Stephanopoulos: but the debt!
Summers: we will reduce the deficit by taxing Cadillacs
Stephanopoulos: I don’t care about that - I just
want you to say you will cut the debt, deficit, health care costs and make me taller
Summers: Done done and done
Stephanopoulos: will you make banks lend or not?
Summers: the American people bailed out the
big banks and Obama is going to have a serious
talk with them and tell them to please pull their heads out of their fucking asses
Stephanopoulos: how about that Eric?
Cantor: the real problem is that there is too much regulation of banks - who get then mad and refuse
to lend money to small businesses
Stephanopoulos: Obama says the GOP is captured by financial lobbyists
Cantor: we couldn’t support the financial reform bill because it had no bipartisan support
Stephanopoulos: um what
Cantor: Washington activism scare investors so they just put all their money under the mattress
Stephanopoulos: because you always say no to whatever Obama does - does that mean he gets the credit when it turns around like it always does when Dems are in charge?
Cantor: no because Obama is a big spending wacko
Stephanopoulos: you mean like Reagan, Bush I
and Bush II
Cantor: right crazy liberals like them
[break]
Stephanopoulos: George why does the economy suck?
Will: because businesses can never know if government will change the rules so they won’t
lend money
Stephanopoulos: but government can always
change laws
Will: not if businesses control government
like they should
Podesta: Obama should urge bankers
to lend money?
Huffington: fuck that shit - take away their toys
and they will start fucking lending
Stephanopoulos: Summers says the economy is turning around because he has a nice car
Huffington: fuck that sexist dipshit
Ryan: black teens are unemployed - if only we
had a black president
Stephanopoulos: the deficit!
Gillespie: people refuse to invest because they
need certainty
Stephanopoulos: what does that mean ‘certainty’ ?
Gillespie: just let businesses write all the rules
Huffington: oh fuck you all - Larry Summers is
a lazy fat fuck
Will: the American people understand that the only way to create jobs is low taxes and no rules
Podesta: good god - we put the GOP charge we
had a fucking Depression
Gillespie: [smirking ]
no the Bush economy was a great success
Podesta: [ smacks forehead ]

Stephanopoulos: because you always say no to whatever Obama does - does that mean he gets the credit when it turns around like it always does when Dems are in charge?
Cantor: no because Obama is a big spending wacko
Stephanopoulos: you mean like Reagan, Bush I
and Bush II
Cantor: right crazy liberals like them
[break]
Stephanopoulos: George why does the economy suck?
Will: because businesses can never know if government will change the rules so they won’t
lend money
Stephanopoulos: but government can always
change laws
Will: not if businesses control government
like they should
Podesta: Obama should urge bankers
to lend money?
Huffington: fuck that shit - take away their toys
and they will start fucking lending
Stephanopoulos: Summers says the economy is turning around because he has a nice car
Huffington: fuck that sexist dipshit
Ryan: black teens are unemployed - if only we
had a black president
Stephanopoulos: the deficit!
Gillespie: people refuse to invest because they
need certainty
Stephanopoulos: what does that mean ‘certainty’ ?
Gillespie: just let businesses write all the rules
Huffington: oh fuck you all - Larry Summers is
a lazy fat fuck
Will: the American people understand that the only way to create jobs is low taxes and no rules
Podesta: good god - we put the GOP charge we
had a fucking Depression
Gillespie: [smirking ]
no the Bush economy was a great success
Podesta: [ smacks forehead ]

************************
Gregory: Welcome Secretaries to meet the press
Gates: rock on
Clinton: hey-o
Gregory: so are we finally leaving Afghanistan
or what?
Gates: we are beginning to thin our forces
Gregory: so fewer troops over time
Gates: no we’re just feeding them less
Gregory: does a deadline give our enemies a
green light to bide their time and then attack
us after we leave?
Clinton: no because this deadline is to tell
the Afghans to get off their asses and take
over their own country
Gregory: but this is a signal of weakness!
Gates: Calm down Fluffy - how can we ever
leave without planning on leaving?
Gregory: we could just leave unannounced
one night like my relatives when they come for Thanksgiving
Clinton: Look Greggers George W. Bush lost the Afghan war and we’re finally going to send the Marines and kick Afghan ass
Gregory: Bob is it true that George Bush refused
to send reinforcements to Afghanistan?
Gates: yes - Bush wanted to send all out troops to Ukraine and Australia
Gregory: that’s Risk
Gates: tell me about it
Gregory: are we finally downsizing the War on Terror and upping the War on Panic?
Clinton: not at all - we’re never leaving Afghanistan but we’re putting civilians there instead
Gregory: But Dick Cheney says Obama is weak
and we must kill all bad guys!!
Clinton: I recently got a PDB: “David Gregory Determined to Remain a Moron”
Gates: I helped write that
Clinton: awesome
Gates: Osama bin Laden is only one who wants
us to stay there forever
Gregory: and Cheney
Gates: well of course
Gregory: so when are leaving so I can accuse
you of surrendering
Gates: eleventy-never
Gregory: When will you go after the Baddest
of the Bad
Clinton: I don’t know anything about Tiger Woods
Gregory: Don’t you have to kill Osama bin Laden?
Clinton: I’ll strangle him myself if I have to
Gregory: isn’t this a quagmire just like when the USSR invaded?
Gates: no not at all we just have a lot of troops attempting to impose a government in Afghanistan going house to house to eliminate any domestic opposition to our invasion
Gregory: right
Gregory: But Tom Hayden says this is immoral!
Clinton: let’s not bicker about who invaded who - good grief we’ve got kids planting fucking seeds!
Gregory: but I just realized this invasion is
so expensive!
Clinton: who gives a fuck - this is war!
Gregory: Is failure an option in Afghanistan?
Gates: Seriously, he can’t be this stupid can
he Hillary?
Clinton: no Bob he really is
Gates: Fascinating
[ break ]
Gregory: Should we ever withdraw from Afghanistan?
McCain: first let me say casualties will go up and many more young people will be killed and therefore I strongly support the decision
Gregory: of course
McCain: Afghanistan, India, Iraq and Pakistan are
all now panicking because we might end our occupation of that region and boy do they hate that
Gregory: what’s your answer?
McCain: we must stop Al-Qaeda from looking at their watches by taking away their arms
Gregory: their weapons?
McCain: no their actual arms - and legs if necessary
Gregory: but that’s a forever war!
McCain: no the goal of all war is to break the enemy’s will
Gregory: oh that’s right - you’re fucking crazy
McCain: we must crush the people psychologically
Gregory: the people are so depressed they veer between being suicidal and engaging in wholescale revolution
McCain: the Afghan people are not there yet
Gregory: I was talking about America
McCain: kill! kill kill!
Gregory: Karzai is corrupt - why should we commit ourselves there?!
McCain: because Maliki was ineffective in Iraq
until we started killing on his behalf
Gregory: um what?
McCain: nothing succeeds like success - we just have kill more people and then the Afghan government will be really popular!
Gregory: can we catch Osama?
McCain: the bad news is we can’t catch him but the good news is al-qaeda will attack us anyway
Gregory: is Obama surrending the war on terror?
McCain: you are an idiot
Gregory: but the message of weakness!
McCain: taking to time to think about our policy didn’t help our enemies
Gregory: is the stimulus working?
McCain: no
Gregory: really?
McCain: well maybe it did
Gregory: I don’t understand
McCain: Generational Theft!
Gregory: Health care public option?
McCain: I hope the American people will reject Medicare, Medicare, Veteran’s health and what
all Congressmen get
Gregory: tell me about Sarah Palin
McCain: I am very entertained when I see
her attacked
Gregory: she thinks you’re an senile fool
McCain: Todd lent me his silk underwear so
we’re friends now
[break]
Gregory: Tom you’re a bloodthirsty maniac
- tell me about Afghanistan
Friedman: the key issue is that our chief ally Karzai is corrupt and so we must fight him so we can then support him
Woodward: the good news is Obama has pleased the Village which loves good war
Gregory: will Pakistan attack the Baddest of
the Bad guys?
Friedman: there is only one indicator of success
- if I sell more books
Gregory: that’s all?
Friedman: The Afghans have to want to destroy
their country more than we do
Gregory: doesn’t a withdrawal giving the enemy
an advantage?
Woodward: [ laughs in Gregory’s face ]
man you’re dumb
Friedman: we need to encourage a bloody civil war in Islam
Gregory: wow - you’re still crazy after all these years
Friedman: those fucking muslims make just want to bomb all of them
Woodward: we should smoke bad cigarettes and use toilets with Afghans
Audience: truly a meeting of the minds this morning
Gregory: Obama said failure is an option
Friedman: we should impose a gasoline tax now that a Democrat is President
Woodward: what they are really saying is let’s see what happens on the ground
Gregory: oh really
Woodward: but then there could be another horrible attack on America which would change everything
Gregory: we can only hope

This Week with George Stephanopoulos - December 6, 2009
December 6, 2009
Guests:
Sec. Hillary Clinton
Sec. Bob Gates
***************************
Stephanopoulos: Sec. Gates and Clinton thanks for coming - President McCain says we should stay in Afghanistan forever
Gates: this isn’t an exit strategy - it’s a gradual conditions-based get-the-fuck-out-of-that-hellhole-strategy
Stephanopoulos: so when do we leave
Gates: we will bring in the cavalry and they will stand on a hill and watch Afghanistan disintegrate
Stephanopoulos: should we commit troops to Karzai who makes the Godfather look like Mr. Rogers?
Clinton: he may be a corrupt bastard but he’s
our corrupt bastard
Stephanopoulos: ok
Clinton: the proof will be in the pudding
Stephanopoulos: interesting metaphor
Clinton: it’s not a metaphor - that’s where he
hides his bribes
Stephanopoulos: ah
Stephanopoulos: John Kerry points out that Bush and Pakistan let Osama bin Laden get away
Gates: yeah so what
Stephanopoulos: well where is Osama?
Gates: we haven’t received a Christmas
card from him in years
Stephanopoulos: no idea where he is?
Gates: He has been practically invisible for a long long time
Stephanopoulos: He was on Jay Leno twice
last month
Gates: see what I mean
Stephanopoulos: talk Taliban to me
Clinton: they have to renounce violence
and extremism
Stephanopoulos: you can’t even get that
from the Teabaggers
Stephanopoulos: Shouldn’t this war be paid for while we fight it for the first time ever now that a black man is President??
Clinton: the Afghan war will be paid for by not fighting a useless war in Iraq
Stephanopoulos: why spend $30 billion to get 100 Al-Qaeda fighters - you could send them all
to Harvard for that
Gates: yeah but we’re trying to get them away from schools of radical rhetoric
Stephanopoulos: that’s a good point
Stephanopoulos: What’s your best argument for getting further bogged down Afghanistan?
Gates: the mighty Soviet Union was defeated there and it brought down the entire empire and breaking up that nation
Stephanopoulos: well I’m convinced
Stephanopoulos: Sec. Clinton should we
invade Italy?
Clinton: it would be more fun that going in the middle east
Stephanopoulos: Awesome
Stephanopoulos: Don’t we have to defeat Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan or it will destabilize Pakistan and Yemen?
Feingold: no they will all move to Pakistan - rather
we should not be there so they will not leave
Stephanopoulos: so should we leave or go?
Feingold: we should have a rational policy
Stephanopoulos: that’s it?
Feingold: you’d be surprised how controversial
that is in Washington
Stephanopoulos: ok
Feingold: no one would invade Afghanistan in
2009 would they?
Stephanopoulos: but for 9/11
Feingold: but we won when we chased them
into Pakistan
Stephanopoulos: can you stop this surge in Afghanistan?
Feingold: probably not - but we in the U.S. are
out of money
Stephanopoulos: speaking of that - can we afford a public health option?
Feingold: it’s fucking exciting fucker!
Stephanopoulos: Senator your language!
Feingold: sorry dude but the details of public policy get me all hot motherfucker!
Stephanopoulos: ok thanks Russ
