Brokaw: who?

Schmidt: Republicans

Schmidt: John McCain came back to washington to grandstand say the word "table" a lot

Brokaw: Obama didn't even go back to DC!

Axelrod: come on - Obama has been trying to help the middle class while McCain had brilliant strategy of flip flopping and blowing off dave letterman

Brokaw: omg the WSJ editorial page doesn't like you!

Axelrod: i would invite them to blow me on inauguration day

Axelrod: Obama is trying to help people and John McCain spent the whole debate waving a rake around

Schmidt: John McCain wants to give american teenagers $7,000 for having a baby

Axelrod: i don't think that will solve our problems

Schmidt: he's flip flopper

Axelrod: that's like you calling crystal gale bald

Axelrod: that makes me very sad - all McCain proposes is tax cuts

Brokaw: some dude somewhere cares about the debt - what would you cut?

Axelrod: Obama will cut the medicare advantage and spending in Iraq

Brokaw: but that doesn't count - the war is paid for Ceiling Cat

Schmidt: heil ceiling cat!

Schmidt: McCain parachuted into DC like a hero who puts his country first

Axelrod: john McCain has sadly sold his soul to the devil

Brokaw: i did see him with Karl Rove

Schmidt: we're winning in Iraq

Tom: awesome

Brokaw: they say McCain is a big liar

Schmidt: they lie about saying we are liars

Axelrod: liar

Schmidt: taxer

Axelrod: shut up

Schmidt: Obama hates america and love terrorists

Axelrod: McCain is a senile bastard

Axelrod: Iraq has a surplus of $70 billion

Schmidt: wow do you think they need a bailout?

Schmidt: [ slips brokaw 500 bucks ]

[ break ]
Brokaw: Bailout plan?

Bob Schaffer: well that is a lot of money i don't know if we have enough trees to print all that cash

Brokaw: but you support it

Schaffer: what can you do

Brokaw: cox says the one-eyed snake of government is to blame

Schaffer: it's possible to blame Reagan or deregulation but I blame Democrats for not regulating Fannie Mae more

Brokaw: why should taxpayers bailout housing speculators

Mark Udall: they shouldn't

Brokaw: oh

Udall: not welfare for Wall Street but for Main Street

Brokaw: uh huh

Udall: the taxpayer should be at the head of the line

Brokaw: well then we could just not do the bailout

Udall: except for that

[ break ]

Brokaw: you predicted McCain would be the nominee

Clinton: i admire him but Obama has shown an ability to learn

Brokaw: high praise

Clinton: no i mean it -- he outfoxed me and hillary with the whole ‘change’ thing

Brokaw: do you think he is a great man like McCain?

Clinton: hell i don't even know him!!

Brokaw: you never spoke in 2004 or later??

Clinton: hey McCain is a great man -- he keeps running for president even though he keeps failing - it sweet watching him brave though his loserness



Brokaw: so Obama is only potentially great

Clinton: right

Brokaw: what more should he do

Clinton: be the President and then serve the whole world

Brokaw: try to restrain yourself

Brokaw: you met Obama at Sylvia's at harlem where i hear they use silverware

Clinton: it's awesome

Brokaw: will you campaign for Obama

Clinton: look hillary said he would always support the winner and she has

Brokaw: but?

Clinton: but nothing

Brokaw: will women vote for Palin

Clinton: some will - like all those blacks who voted for Obama even though Hillary was better

Brokaw: advice for Biden?

Clinton: go after the undecided voters - they must like McCain and Palin so be very specific about what they are going to do

Brokaw: makes sense

Clinton: he should play the white catholic blue-collar card

Brokaw: that will win over MSNBC

Brokaw: Great issues?

Clinton: one economic strength and two international strength - look at the Pew Poll where the USA is popular where Bush has fought AIDS

Brokaw: the American people need to hear about some economic success stories in Africa

Audience: maybe we could hear some from America

Clinton: hey tom Africa is a continent -- discuss it with your news people

Brokaw: my what?

Burnett: Paulson wants a bailout and Dems want to help people



Liesman: the US government is buying real estate with NO MONEY DOWN!

Bumiller: McCain and Obama have the same plan in Iraq - McCain always wanted to pull out

Tweety: tell me about the debates!

Biker chick: Obama should call McCain crazy

Tweety: he should ‘gig’ him

Bumiller: I swear Chris you are a Dr. Suess character come to life

Woodward: McCain lives in his own little world

Bumiller: he's very angry

Stengel: McCain's got to be strong and not an asshole

Tweety: that's tough

Stengel: Obama has to use the debate to prove he's a good solider - like maybe strangle charlie gibson with his bare hands

Bumiller: a lot of people would like that

Tweety: who won the week?

Noron: Obama did - who knows why!?

Woodward: i think these debates could be important

Tweety: oh wow!

Stegnel: lipstick season is over - the media is going to get serious - this time we mean it!!!!!

Woodward: remember in an Empire the soldiers have the final say in the election

Noron: Obama has to get 20 years experience by Friday

Stengel: McCain was a POW which doesn't help much to rescue Wall Street

Woodward: no no he is the commander in chief which means he know how to fix credit default swaps

Tweety: i love it! this is not at all how we got into this problem in the first place! ha!

Tweety: Palin peaked!

Noron: she energizes the crazies everyone else thinks she's nuts

Woodward: the unwashed masses like her

Brokaw: wow without her Mondale might have lost 51 states

Todd: indeed

Brokaw: Palin Bubble?

Todd: she might be Amazon or the Pets.com sock puppet

Brokaw: who wins in 2008 election?

Todd: the states are cementing into place except for wisconsin or the West

Brokaw: so Obama wins?

Todd: no he can win the whole west and lose Wisconsin or Michigan and he's screwed

Brokaw: so who win Michigan?

Todd: they say they hate the direction of the country, the economy, the war, and will vote for Dems

Tucker: somehow McCain magically sets the agenda - its amazing

Service Forum with John McCain and Barack Obama

**************************
Service Forum
September 11, 2008
Hosts:
Judy Woodruff
Rick Stengel
Guests:
Senator John McCain
Senator Barack Obama
***************************

Woodruff: how can we make sure we celebrate 9/11 every year right?

McCain: by uttering a string of banal cliches in a weak and feeble voice on national television

Stengel: what would you have done after 9/11 differently from President Stupid?

McCain: i would have proposed neighborhood watch programs to guard nuclear power plants and expanded the military

Stengel: but Stupid did expand the military

McCain: look americans are better than other people and we showed it after 9/11 by bringing democracy to the little brown countries

Woodruff: should we force people to serve?

McCain: oh no! we should underfund the ones we have that way we can always claim they are oversubscribed

Woodruff: why are the American people so eager to serve?

McCain: they are inspired to attack Russia over south ossetia

Stengel: why is Obama always bashing congress?

McCain: because Congress is so terrible they're lazy and greedy

Woodruff: but you've been in Congress for 55 years

McCain: no i fought Congress but Congress won - also i shot the sherriff and his deputy

Stengel: what are the lessons from hurricane katrina?

McCain: the private sector should take the lead FedEx or Target should have been in charge of relief efforts instead of people always relying on big borther

Stengel: what else

McCain: christian churches should build all over levees or at least pray for the hurricanes to hit the bad people

Woodruff: why is it only the rich people like me who volunteer their time

McCain: i've found that isn't true but in any case i hope businesses would give employees to take time off do work for Jimmy Carter

Stengel: what about business giving paid leave for volunteer work

McCain: i would praise them and then give them a tax break to go overseas

Stengel: you and everyone in your family served in the military

McCain: no i never talk about that

Stengel: ok let's move on

McCain: wait let me tell a 30 minute story on my incredible heroism

Woodruff: why are all the troops poor and black?

McCain: hey baby it was worse during the draft

Woodruff: what a relief

McCain: look the reason they're all black is because the military is just too small it's a wonder we haven't been invaded by Luxembourg yet

Woodruff: so we have a teeny tiny army

McCain: yes the answer is to let ivy league colleges let the ROTC recruit for officers on campus among the brave keyboarders

Woodruff: but you know why they don't it's cause the military hates gays - which incidentally could increase the size of the army-

Stengel: whoa! time for a commercial break - don't answer that General McCain

Stengel: you authored a great bill which i won't explain

McCain: [ grins creepily ]

Stengel: so why not have mandatory military service

McCain: whoa dude people are afraid of me enough if they think i'm in favor of the draft the GOP will lose a whole generation

Stengel: fair enough old man

Woodruff: Obama's plan would cost a whopping $3 billion!

McCain: yes it's crazy - let’s have the private sector handle service

Stengel: would ask Senator Obama being your Secretary of Motivatin' Teh Youngsters?

McCain: oh sure but why get the government involved do you know the Bush cabinet never meets?

Stengel: so sad

Woodruff: Sarah Palin dissed community service

McCain: look she had to do that because Obama won't go to all my little town halls

Woodruff: i'm confused

McCain: hey she was defending herself from the vicious sexist attacks on her epic Mayorship of wacka-wacka

Stengel: will you triple AmeriCorps

McCain: yes

[ applause ]

McCain: i love ted kennedy if he can recover so can i

McCain: but dammit let's make sure we encourage volunteerism with bland cheap banalities without doing anything about

Woodrufff: only on CNN folks

Woodruff: what can teh elderly or in your case the superelderly do

McCain: Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Woodruff: JOHN!!!

McCain: what? Huh?

Woodruff: this glowing grammaphone hath transmitted a message

McCain: let's face it America sucks - i know that - why don't you think i don't know that?

Woodruff: you're a fucking ray of sunshine

McCain: did i mention i want a war with russia?

Woodruff: why aren't you raving at a tv in a nursing home

McCain: grrr arrr matlock!!!

Stengel: will you give every PhD a green card

McCain: um, what?

Woodruff: we all know this is Happy 9/11 Day - but what makes us superior to Canadians or Mexicans?!

McCain: well the founding fathers thought so - we are the ONLY country that believes in human rights or god -- look at what we did after WWII

Woodruff: Glory Days!

McCain: we are more generous than other nations

Woodruff: you make me feel warm inside but do you have proof of that?

McCain: yes look at our friendship with Britain

Woodruff: exactly

Stengel: why are parties and partisanship so evil?

McCain: oh that is so so so sad - i've said repeatedly that America-hating anti-female muslim nigger is good kid

Stengel: i can't understand why that boy can't accept your friendship

Stengel: OMG! By 2042 the white will be gone how can we stop this!?!

McCain: Look we've had wave after wave of slaves come to america seeking freedom

Stengel: amen

McCain: look casey it's sad but we need all those Mexicans to fight our wars

Stengel: demmit it makes me mad

[ obama walks on stage ]

[ college crowd goes WILD ]

Woodruff: OMG run for your lives!!!

Stengel: what does Christmas mean to you

Obama: birth of christ

Stengel: sorry I meant 9/11

Obama: easy mistake

Casey: sure

Obama: it's a reminder of the spirit of togetherness when dick armey sang with barbara mikulski

[ audience shudders ]

Obama: how do we recreate that

Stengel: remake of South Pacific?

Obama: Hey Stupid did all the right things - he rallied the nation and got Osama

Woodruff: he did?

Obama: but then he should have admitted it was all about oil and had a bold new plan of installing those curly light bulbs in every dorm in America

[ YAYY! ]

Obama: i would have told people we all have to be at war

Stengel: we all know Americans are the laziest fucks around hell they can't be bothered to vote

Obama: that what makes America great - we believe in utter selfishness not only for ourselves but for our neighbors too

Stengel: what else

Obama: we think long term

Stengel: sorry which country are you talking about?

Woodruff: specfics pleez

Obama: i would appoint Ted Kennedy and Orrin Hatch in charge of scaring kids in high school into service - if they volunteer i would promise not to send them to their schools

Woodruff: brilliant!

Stengel: you are in fact in favor of national service and you are black

Obama: i know

Stengel: but how are you going to crush the unions?

Obama: hey the unions are all about coming together they love that

Stengel: but the teachers are tough

Obama: Dood. So. Am. I

Woodruff: McStupid seems kind of out of it - he didn't realize poor people are too busy waiting in line at the soup kitchen to volunteer at the soup kitchen

Obama: hey i can dig it - i graduated from Columbia and it was harder to find a community service job than it was to work on Wall Street

Judy: how odd

Obama: and then you can go to college for a little service

Judy: well ok

Stengel: but Newt Gingrich said the blacks took all the good service jobs so the government has to suck ass!!

Obama: that's just an excuse to give massive tax cuts to the rich

Stengel: what's wrong with that

Obama: FEMA should fucking work

Woodruff: so if i hear right John McCain is heartless bastard and your are a tax raising socialist

Obama: that sums it up - now make your choice America

Woodruff: how can we make our military bigger so we invade Russia?

Obama: oh yeah we need a bigger army - you know my white grandfather fought with Patton

Woodruff: i didn't know there were negroes in the army in those days

Obama: let's be honest small rural towns are fighting our wars and not the rich kids

Stengel: right places like Columbia hate America they invited Adolf Ahmedinejad but not the Uncle Sam

Obama: damm right

[ waves tiny flag ]

Woodruff: so what else

Obama: we need people who speak other languages and agricultural specialists in Afghanistan

Woodruff: like who

Obama: people who know how to grow quality weed like purple kush

Stengel: is there any reason people should the Empire more in war than in peace?

Obama: [ reaches for drink ]

holy shit they're serving kool aid

Woodruff: can we give military benefits to kids in AmeriCorps

Obama: well look with all due respect to young teachers soldiers are risking life and limb - we can only afford right now to give them electrified showers and roach-infested hospitals

Woodruff: well sure

Woodruff: will you have McCain in your cabinet

Obama: yeah i like gramps story he's inspired a generation of kids to get shot down and be a POW

Woodruff: big dreams

Obama: i met a big shot lawyer who quit his job to create a post traumatic stress group in Montana

Woodruff: it's so wonderful that a state with so few people has such a need

Stengel: following the Doctrine of False Equivalency did Democrats insult mayors like Palin did to community organizers

Obama: no

Stengel: would like to expand on that

Obama: you're a dick

Stengel: well i never hear that at teh country club

Judy: you're so mean and partisan

Obama: hey whitey Bush put a fucking horse expert in charge of FEMA and thousands died

Judy: now hold on we don't know that

Obama: cause no one bothered to count

Judy: hey one POW is tragedy, thousands death in the bayou is a statistic

Stengel: de cocqueville said America was deeply weird and special

Obama: we are both selfish and idealistic and under Republicans we have veered toward the selfish

Stengel: well that's America nothing you can do

Obama: no in my campaign as in the army we give young people big jobs

Stengel: are they [ whispers ] black??

Obama: they're whoppin’ green screen's ass

Stengel: following the Doctrine of False Equivalency did Democrats
insult mayors like Palin did to community organizers

Obama: Kennedy and Clinton inspired people

Woodruff: name a good Republican

Obama: ok teddy roosevelt

Stengel: ow that's cheating

Woodruff: thanks for coming handsome

Brokaw: we all remember where we were when men landed on the moon - who did you call 1st after Palin's historically magnificent speech?

Biden: I didn’t call anyone I fell asleep

Brokaw: the GOP has told me you are not allowed to go after Palin because she is a woman and not too bright - so it would be sexist not to hold her to a lower standard

Biden: oh brother

Brokaw: obviously women will vote for Hillary and now Sarah Palin

Biden: that seems sexist to me

Brokaw: well you know how the ladies and blacks are they just vote for each other

Biden: if you say so

Brokaw: Why does Oprah hate America and women and working class people?

Biden: you are a true idiot, aren't you?

Brokaw: well I love Sarah Palin

Biden: she never talks about the economy or the war or health care or

Brokaw: boooooooooooriiiiing!!!

Biden: oh ok

Brokaw: let's talk about polling

Biden: yeppers

Brokaw: Republicans had a massive bounce

Biden: interesting - after our convention we were 8 points ahead and after theirs they were 2 points behind

Brokaw: la la la i can't hear you

Brokaw: can you use hillary to win the lunch bucket states?

Biden: which ones are those?

Brokaw: the non-elitist states

Biden: what's an elitist state?

Brokaw: New York

Biden: yeah upstate NY is all about the snobbery

Brokaw: why not have town halls across America and give gramps McCain all the attention he needs to win

Biden: because it's stupid and we're trying to win

Brokaw: all right i guess we have to talk about the fucking issues

Biden: good

Brokaw: let me quote from Bill O'Reilly

Biden: [ smacks forehead ]

Brokaw: why can't you admit that the surge worked ??

Biden: because it didn't

Biden: gimme a break

Brokaw: 5 years from now will Iraq be peaceful and have a square named after George Bush?

Biden: they may have peace if Obama is President

Brokaw: but Maliki issued a statement through the Pentagon that he loved Bush

Biden: only an idiot would be impressed by that

Brokaw: i loved it

Biden: uh huh

Brokaw: Should we give american housing money to the Chinese

Biden: no

Brokaw: should Bush melt down Michael Phelps' medals to help pay off American debt?

Biden: only as a last resort

Brokaw: Obama is very mean to John McCain about his lobbyists and after all he was a POW

Biden: damm i love those tv ads he can really kick ass

Brokaw: but you are the Senator from MBNA

Biden: that's me

Brokaw: you supported the Bankruptcy bill

Biden: do i get to talk at all

Brokaw: hmmmmm

Biden: i supported women and children in that bill

Brokaw: warble warble

Biden: look i'm wearing a flag pin

Brokaw: garble garble

Brokaw: but there are people who don't agree

Biden: 95 senators voted for it dude

Brokaw: but health care causes bankruptcy

Biden: so let's have national health care then

Brokaw: Questions have been raised about your son

Biden: no they haven't

Brokaw: so what kind of reform would you have?

Biden: we would stop guys like dick cheney who had lobbyists actually writing bills!

Brokaw: well that does seem efficient

Brokaw: Cardinal Egan says democracy shouldn't have non-catholic leaders

Biden: well how nice for him - how's that pedophile scandal working for him by the way?

Brokaw: when does life begin?

Biden: i'm in favor of choice and against fascism

Brokaw: but if you think life begins at conception then how can you vote in favor of killing babies

Biden: it's not a vote in favor of killing it's voting against curtailing rights

Brokaw: you just blew my mind

Brokaw: Lieberman says Obama is too young and unqualiifed

Biden: what did he say about Palin

Brokaw: he thinks she's great

Biden: when this election is over i am going to get together with my old buddy and kick his ass

Brokaw: so let's see you do it

Biden: first i have to beat McBush and Palin

[ break ]

Brokaw: you say 9/11 made us all crazy and we lost our way

Friedman: yes we all said stupid shit like “suck on this”

Brokaw: yes we all did that

Friedman: yes we all did and it was terrible

Brokaw: so now what?

Friedman: we need ET to phone home

Brokaw: you are a born-again Greenie

Friedman: i am not nothing if a wind shifter

Brokaw: both parties are equally guilty

Friedman: oh of course

Brokaw: what about ‘drill baby drill’?

Friedman: we have to make being Green popular by targeting dark skinned people

Brokaw: i like it

Friedman: we have to promote carbon offsets

Brokaw: you sound like a liberal

Friedman: oh no!

Brokaw: you would like to be Chinese for a day

Friedman: i would like to know what it's like to live a country with economic growth and citizens who care about democracy

Brokaw: my gas is expensive

Friedman: industries should go “Texas Hold ‘Em” on inventing something new and really green and totally aweome

Brokaw: are you also in favor of curing cancer?

Friedman: ummm..... yes

Brokaw: but both parties are to blame

Friedman: and al gore is fat

Brokaw: yes

Brokaw: is al gore's solution viable?

Friedman: how should i know - he's brilliant and i need my wife to tie my shoelaces

Brokaw: it seems to me that liberals are to blame for everything and Generation Z will have to save us

Friedman: i just realized that George Bush is a short-sighted moron

Brokaw: both parties are to blame for that

Friedman: oh definitely

Brokaw: is global warming real?

Friedman: i have no idea all -- i know i can use it to sell one more stupid cliche ridden pretentious book full of obvious convention wisdom disguised and brilliant commentary with childish acronyms and observations to thrill the dully ignorant pundit set and the self congratulatory award-presenting class

Brokaw: indeed warble warble

Bartiromo: so how do you decide?

Palin: i'm a mom and my 19 year-old son is going to Iraq in a war over oil which he wouldn't have to do if we drilled in in ANWR

Palin: oh people see the moose and bears on tv but that's not ANWR - it's really a very ugly place

Bartiromo: If ANWR is so small why not drill somewhere else?

Palin: hey we are at war over taking Saddam's oil - we've GOT to drill there here and everywhere

Bartiromo: sounds great!

Palin: wait there's more! the caribou love the pipeline - if Biden had his way the caribous would have no where to masturbate

Meet The Press with Gov. Tim Pawlenty - August 31, 2008

Meet The Press
August 31, 2008
Guest: Gov. Tim Pawlenty

Brokaw: welcome to the son of Governor Pawlenty

Gov. Pawlenty: no i'm actually the governor

Brokaw: really?

Pawlenty: yep

Brokaw: Bush will not be attending the convention

Pawlenty: of course it would not make sense for a very unpopular President to attend in the middle of a hurricane

Brokaw: we can stipulate that Palin's a down-home regular person who's only knowledge of foreign policy is Russian fish and will be less than a heartbeat from the presidency

Pawlenty: we have a person as a potential Vice President who is a governor and very very well qualified

Brokaw: Palin isn't that good

Pawlenty: Tom I was talking about myself

Pawlenty: Palin is better than Obama after all she's white and an ovary-american

Brokaw: C'mon she's a fucking zero

Pawlenty: there are lots of idiot americans who have never done anything - shouldn't they have representation too??

Brokaw: McCain put his short-term interests ahead of the nation

Pawlenty: well that's his right

Brokaw: her own mother in law is voting for Obama

Pawlenty: Obama just graduated from college!!

Brokaw: not exactly

Pawlenty: hey Alaska is a very big place and she has guts and grit she Commanded the National Guard in the effort to wipe out the Polar Bear

Pawlenty: Male Hillary supporters are going to vote for McCain because of Palin and her hockey-mom-ness

Brokaw: with all due respect Governor i never heard a bigger pile of bullshit in my life

Pawlenty: hey if i was any good at this McCain would have chosen me

Brokaw: Abortion?

Pawlenty: Obama never gets asked about fetuses

Brokaw: he was last week liar

Pawlenty: oh well la la la la

Brokaw: She's a creationist wacko

Pawlenty: in terms of science it's not credible but why not teach it alongside evolution -- why not have the truth and myth and let the kids decide what is true?

Brokaw: I'm confused

Pawlenty: in my state we teach algebra and that 2 + 2 = 5 -- you know, both sides

Brokaw: The Economist says McCain is a fucking crazy

Pawlenty: no he's a Mavericky Maverick ask anyone

Brokaw: i'm asking you

Pawlenty: Maverick

Brokaw: anything else?

Pawlenty: Fuck John McCain for not choosing me

Brokaw: whoa

Pawlenty: oh that was a freudian slip i meant to say 'Maverick' and that slipped out

[ break [

Brokaw: kelly love yer pearls

Kelly O'Donnell: potential positive in a major hurricane destroying an american city is that McCain has a good excuse for making Bush stay away - also this can show how McCain will react to a crisis - aside from a eating a birthday cake of course

Brokaw: Doris give me your historical perspective on Norah Palin

Doris Goodwin: Sarah

Brokaw: whatever - who is she - we know she shot a moose

Goodwin: 1 out of 3 VPs become President and let's face it with McCain those odds are higher

Tom: wow

Goodwin: he's had a year to make this decision and for god's sake he's comes up with small town mayor??

Goodwin: i get it why he chosen but hunting and fishing is not a top qualification for being President in teh 21st century

Mike Murphy: first she helps with the looney base, and it reinforces the Maverickyness, but it does indicate he doesn't care about experience

Tom: after all Obama is the nominee not Biden or Michael Palin

Andrea Mitchell: she mentioned Hillary and Ferraro in her speech and got booed

Brokaw: well that went well

Andrea: she not only wants to stop everyone to have an abortion she is even willing to not have one too

Tom: wow how brave to be willing to force your beliefs on everyone else

Mitchell: it's a fascinating choice - it indicates that McCain is off his fucking rocker and has contempt for the American people

Baritromo: We must drill in Alaska Tom!!

Tom: ok mary cool it

Bartiromo: it's maria

Tom: that's what i said

Bartiromo: dammit the moose and bears and wolves love the pipeline they rub up against and have sex with it

Tom: home foreclosures and health care!

Maria: she says the Republican party has the advantage there

Tom: um was there a lack of oxygen during your interview

Maria: she showed me the places where they want to drill and it looked fine to me

Tom: is that all

Maria: no my taxi driver said she is great and she gave up a private chef

Tom: wow

Maria: i was very impressed with her knowledge of the need to drill and create jobs in Alaska

Gregory: he did this to make a grab for independents - i think it will work

Murphy: i don't believe in Pumas

Gregory: bite me

Murphy: she will help with gun owning blue collar nuts but not with wine drinking snobs

Brokaw: she has a very winning way about her

Goodwin: you mean she's hot

Brokaw: ayup

Gregory: she went into labor and boarded a plane - this is really cool!!

Brokaw: so of course she should be leader of the free world

Mitchell: right - they were going to chose Lieberman until they realized everybody in America hates him

Murphy: i want lukewarm independents not goldwater loonies

Brokaw: which is she?

Murphy: she's anti corruption creationist - she's both

Brokaw: let's talk about her looks some more

Gregory: she's proves that Obama is out of touch with the moose-killing American

Mitchell: Obama didn't pay for his promises!!

Brokaw: c'mon it was a great speech

Mitchell: it scared McCain so much he reached for some Alaska beauty queen

Brokaw: experience is off the table

Murphy: right now it's all about taxes taxes taxes

Brokaw: what else

Murphy: they will run on fear of Pelosi

Mitchell: the dems need to trot out Hillary again to counteract the force of Palin

Brokaw: omg she will never go away will she

Brokaw: Fred Barnes said she is not a feminist - is she a feminist??

Maria: no she is not

Audience: she is head of Feminists for Life

Maria: i thought she was so cute - she called her husband the "First Dude"

Maria: her husband is an oil guy with British Petroleum that will be play well with 'the masses'

Brokaw: Maria you are very condescending to a fictional group of imaginary lunch bucket blue collar folk

Maria: i'm sorry

Brokaw: no it's good that's the Tim Russert way - you will now be invited on the show every week

Maria: yay
