Must be running low on dough. Kid Berwyn Wednesday #1

I like him lots, but he's always been more of the supposedly "neutral" no-politics type, more than LENO even. UTUSN Wednesday #3

I don't think he's saying "be neutral" at all Fiendish Thingy Wednesday #2

KIMMEL/COLBERT's routines are intricate, far from "lazy" - besides being exquisite commentary. UTUSN Wednesday #9

I've Always Been Concerned That As Tr**p Is Treated Like A Joke.... global1 Wednesday #18

KIMMEL/COLBERT aren't elevating him to a joke. They are eviscerating him far more than "serious" pundits. UTUSN Wednesday #23

I Agree With You.... global1 Wednesday #37
