Gotta love the swoopy cam:
Obama spikes the bin Laden football:
Is it any wonder why Stephen and Jon are the most trusted newsmen in the country? Even though they continuously nail Fox News and Republicans to the wall, they will not hold back against Democrats. I’m sure many of our conservative friends who watch the show, loved the line about Obama not closing Gitmo.
I also loved that Stephen brought up Bush’s over-the-top football spike complete with Aircraft carrier and “Mission Accomplished” banner.
“I believe that was called the USS Humility”
Is there some place that every journalist newsperson goes to get copy and snazzy catchphrases? They obviously all watch each other because the “spiking the football” quote is certainly not the first time on the show, and on The Daily Show too, where a montage of clips using the same phrase, has been compiled. I just got back from shopping and while waiting in line at the register, I noticed a paper that had a big pic of Obama in a football uniform and it said, “Obama spikes football”. Can you take a guess at which paper it was? If you say it’s owned by Rupert Murdoch, that’s a pretty safe bet. It was the New York Post.
Paul Ryan vs. Thomas Reese:
Oh it was such a pleasure to see Paul Ryan get nailed to the wall, hung out to dry and whipped into shape and all by a bunch of fellow Catholics. I have been known to be a big non-fan of the Catholic church, but I give them huge props for doing the right thing in this case. I guess they have their moments.
I also can never get enough of their “Visual Approximations”:
Father Reese is one of two Catholic priests that I like. Well, the only two that I know of are Father Martin and Father Reese, so that means I like 100% of all Catholic priests that I know of. Also, 100% of all Catholic priests that I like are friends of the show. Who knew?
Carne Ross:
“My guest tonight proposes a new form of government. I hope it’s a puppy-ocracy. That would be adorable.” Certainly sounds adorable.
Carne Ross: admitted traitor. I keep thinking his name is meat. I have to admit, I watched this interview twice and I don’t remember it. Could be just my brain, but I certainly remember the interview on last night’s show.
“Leaderless revolution. That’s called chaos…have you ever been in a theatre
company? It takes five hours to decide where to go for dinner”
We can assume Stephen knows that from experience.
