It's a Bush! It's a Plame!

:hi: Join us!

[SeattleGirl]

1. Hi Berry! Howdy all!

I had a dream about Sarah Jessica Parker last night. :crazy:

:hi:

[SharonRB]

4. LOL

:rofl:

Oooh, KO didn't waste any time. "Did you lie?"

[Berry Cool]

19. Did she have a bony ass?

And did she tell you Keith's been watching her antics since at least 2001?

[SharonRB]

2. I deleted mine.

:hi:

I stopped at Borders on my way home tonight and bought Snotty's book using gift cards.

[SeattleGirl]

3. Hi Sharon!

Gotta let us know how it is!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

30. Musta been simultaneous again.

Let us know how the book is. I'm strongly tempted now to buy myself, even though I said I wouldn't.

[SharonRB]

34. I will

By the way, I officially bowed out of dinner Tuesday, so we can meet and watch primary coverage together. Bring your laptop!

[Berry Cool]

40. Too cool!

You all gotta join us, kids. It's gonna be Sha-Sha and Berry, Live from Cleveland next Tuesday for the Grand Primary Finale!!!!!

[SeattleGirl]

43. w00t!

Wish I could be there!

[SharonRB]

So do I

I'd love to meet you!

[SeattleGirl]

50. Hopefully someday.

How far from Detroit are you? I remember you said you don't actually live in the city.

[SharonRB]

54. I'm only two miles from the city border

You know, 8 Mile is the border between Detroit and the 'burbs. I'm at 10 Mile.

[SeattleGirl]

56. Okay.

Well, I'll put a visit into my wish file!

[SharonRB]

59. Cool!

I'd love to get to Seattle someday, but who knows if I ever will.

7. Beam us up, Scotty!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

12. Hi bleever!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

9. C'mon, guys - I don't wanna see SMOS!

Gimme the KOOS! :bounce::bounce:

:hi: Gonna sit and listen for a while.

[SharonRB]

13. Me, too

I want to listen to this carefully.

[SeattleGirl]

14. Rev!!!!

:hi: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

18. Yea Rev!!!!

:loveya:

"Coercive democracy" = "You people are gonna enjoy the blessings of liberty even if we have to torture and kill you all."

[SharonRB]

21. OMG

* actually admitted he authorized the leak. Can anyone spell treason?

[Berry Cool]

25. I think Scotty's about to break DU.

Go, Scotty, go!!!!

[bleever]

23. Puffy McTruthface!

Go Scott!

[SharonRB]

27. If he said all this to the grand jury

I don't get why they couldn't go further than they did.

[SeattleGirl]

29. Maybe they needed corroboration and couldn't get it.

[SeattleGirl]

28. WOW! Just freakin' WOW!

Scottie better watch his back.

He SAID Bush confirmed he had okay'd the leak of Plame's name! :wow:

He SAID that the Bush WH is too secretive! :wow:

Watch your back, Scottie!

[Berry Cool]

31. Talk about a guy who needs to stay out of small planes.

I find myself hoping again that the glass at 30 Rock is bulletproof.

Which reminds me, Keith said on Kos that a bulb popped during his last Special Comment, right over the camera, and it was actually all he could do not to laugh at his floor director jumping a foot in the air. :rofl:

[SharonRB]

32. That's what we figured it was

Did he post on Kos again today?

[Berry Cool]

44. No, but I went back and looked at the comments from Friday

and he added an explanation sometime Monday.

[Berry Cool]

37. This is a nice, juicy, long interview, too.

They're eatin' it up on DU!

Maybe it was high time people were reminded WHY some of us DO NOT think Keith could EVER jump the shark! Sheesh!!!!

If only his show had been around in 2002...or more popular in 2004 and 2005...!

[GigiMommy]

60. Oh is THAT what happened!

I feel better now.

[SharonRB]

33. Keith...

what do you think would have happened to him? He wouldn't have had to resign on his own, that's for sure.

[bleever]

38. It's like being inside any corporate culture.

Scotty Knew it wasn't it his place to being critiquing the president's decisions. He knew there was no opening for that kind of conversation with his boss.

[SeattleGirl]

41. Absolutely.

That's the biggest reason he couldn't open his mouth when he still worked there.

[bleever]

35. A third segment!

I'm gonna need a cigarette, and I don't even smoke!

:smoke:

[RevCheesehead]

36. Is this gonna be an all-Scotty show?

Fascinating stuff....

[bleever]

39. Talk about watching someone trying to redeem their soul...

Wow.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

46. You know, I'm having a whole new feeling about this guy.

And despite his job, I always did kinda like the guy. Tony Snow, not so much. Dana - hopeless.

He's earning a lot in redemptive points tonight. :hi:

[Berry Cool]

47. I think Keith figures when you've got a good thing, why not keep going?

He could do TWO hours just on Scotty.

[RevCheesehead]

52. He's gonna win the ratings tonight, too.

And: it's May! :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

72. YAAAAAAAAAY!!!!

:hi: Hi Rev!!!

[RevCheesehead]

74. Hi, Gigi!

:hug: Cassie!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

49. Ah, here comes the Faux Noise question!!!!!

:bounce: YESSSSS!!!!!! GO KEITH!!!!!!!

Oh boy, Billo is gonna spontaneously EXPLODE ON LIVE TV if he's watching during his breaks!!!

[SeattleGirl]

51. And won't that be sweet?

[Berry Cool]

53. "You know why I picked Fox News--I wanted everybody else to have to cite Fox News"

said Dick Vader!!!! YES!!!!!

And now he's asking about the generals!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

42. Hi everyone,,,

:hi: Wolvie, congrats.

I'm fascinated with this interview. It sounds to me as if he's got all his "talking points" down.

[SeattleGirl]

45. Hi mo!

Very fascinating interview, for certain.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

48. I love that he made the media culpable, too.

And Stretch was awfully defensive...
My response to him was, "Buddy, you blew any credibility you had when you joined MC Rove on stage."

[Berry Cool]

64. Yep.

And Keith is, despite what he says, one of the few journalists who can interview Scotty with a clear conscience.

[Berry Cool]

65. And he's topping it all off with John Dean!!

What a boffo show!!

[SeattleGirl]

68. Absolutely.

Can't wait for the youtube video to be posted. This is definitely something to watch again.

[RevCheesehead]

71. Just "Wow!"

Brilliant show! I think this one's worth recording. But since my VCR isn't hooked up, I'll just have to download the podcast.

[GigiMommy]

55. Hi All!

:hi: Been watching in the kitchen while inhaling dinner.

[SeattleGirl]

57. Hi Gigi!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

61. Hi SG!!!

:hi: Can we IMPEACH this Doofus NOW!!!!!!!!

[SharonRB]

63. I think Scotty could be an Obamacan

[SeattleGirl]

66. Definitely.

And that would be great.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

67. Yeah, I think that is distinct possibility.

Shar, you'll have to let us know what you think of the book.

[SharonRB]

69. I will

[Berry Cool]

70. Could be.

Glad you could make it, GGM!! :hi:

[Berry Cool]

73. And let us all bow down and give thanks to John Dean

for GIVING US, AT LONG LAST, THE KOOS!!!!!! :loveya:

[GigiMommy]

77. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: Couldn't miss this.

(I meant COULD NOT...oops)

[RevCheesehead]

75. Maybe Scottie can have his old job, but w/a new boss!

Kinda like a Spokesobamabudsperson. :)

[SeattleGirl]

76. Dear Scottie: John Dean will be one of the best friends you could have.

[Berry Cool]

78. And Keith said the I word again.

:-)

I do hope subpoenas come Scotty's way...because HE will ANSWER them. Gladly.

[Berry Cool]

79. Excellent job, Keith.

:applause: You done good, boy. Made up for your #1 story last night. Honestly.

[RevCheesehead]

80. And I'm fairly certain he beat Billow's ass, too.

It's a two-fer. :evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

81. RIP, Harvey Korman...

:loveya:

[Berry Cool]

83. Ditto, Pats.

We'll miss him. Like we missed you of late. And you got such a great marijuana ref last night, too.

[Patsy Stone]

85. I'm back

and better than ever! :)

Do you like the new Countdown site? It's very fancy.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

82. Scotty is one of those people

who when he speaks, I have no idea what the hell he's saying. I have to listen really close, and I still lose the plot.

:hi:, all! It looks like he taped this right after the Today Show interview. He's wearing the same outfit.

[bleever]

84. I had to watch it twice

for the meaning of his cadence and pauses to make full sense.

And, KO was leaning far in on some of his pitches, so Scotty had to lean back, and even step out of the batter's box, a few times.

Good interview. Russert's got to top it, if he dares, or if he can.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

86. As I was watching,

I was wondering if he was still a Republican, and then Keith asked him who he was voting for. That made me smile, and so did his answer.

I was thinking about watching the first and second parts again, because there were some odd phrases in there I didn't catch. I'm not even sure they were in English.


:hi:

[bleever]

87. I pity the foux

who don't appreciate this.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

88. It had the live bug during the first airing of the show

Glad you're back.

:hi:

I won't be there live tonight. It's hubby's birthday and his sister and brother-in-law are in town from California, so we're all going to dinner.

[Patsy Stone]

89. We will miss you.

And you're right; I noticed that when I watched the YouTube clip. It was so light outside, it looked like it was much earlier than 8 o'clock.

Wish Hubby a Happy Birthday from me. :party:
