Ugh, now there are two options for the live bloggers to gather to dish.
|7.15.10 @ 4:40PM|#
Don't be dishing on Mangu Ward. She is the Mary Ann of Reason's Gilligan's Island.
Too Easy|7.15.10 @ 4:42PM|#
So Kerry Howley must be Ginger.
|7.15.10 @ 4:47PM|#
Pretty much. I was always a Mary Ann man myself. So as a consequence, I never got all the Howley love around here.
|7.15.10 @ 4:50PM|#
I don't think anyone but Sanchez got the Howley love around here, not for lack of trying.
|7.15.10 @ 4:52PM|#
She is hot. But I always found her posts annoying. Since I wasn't dating her, I don't miss her one bit. Mangu Ward in contrast puts up some pretty good stuff. And is very cute.
Ska|7.15.10 @ 4:42PM|#
Now that's funny.
I always dug Mary Ann. Gingham prints, maybe? Who doesn't love seeing the where the checkerboard curves?
|7.15.10 @ 5:17PM|#
"Where the Checkerboard Curves" was always my favorite Shel Silverstein collection.
|7.15.10 @ 4:48PM|#
I was gonna go in more of a Bailey from WKRP direction, but all right. As long as we agree that Weigel is Herb/Gilligan.
|7.15.10 @ 4:51PM|#
That would make Suderman Less Nessman. I can see that.
|7.15.10 @ 4:53PM|#
No no. MORE Nessman. Always more Nessman.
|7.15.10 @ 5:18PM|#
Keep Suderman away from the turkeys.
|7.15.10 @ 7:01PM|#
This is Peter Suderman saying, "This is Peter Suderman."

If you are in front of the television at 8PM tonight...
I will be!
...be sure to tune into Stossel on the Fox Business Channel.
Oh. Me not get.
|7.15.10 @ 6:55PM|#
Yeah, what gives? It's like they buy into the liberal talking point that libertarians are all rich robber barons with the most expensive cable package.
Fist of Etiquette|7.15.10 @ 8:00PM|#
Yeah, seriously. I don't get Fox Business Channel either. Everytime I tune it in, it goes right over my head.
Drax the Destroyer|7.16.10 @ 7:46AM|#
No that it is very timely, but you guys should know that all of Stossel's shows have ended up on Hulu...eventually (I think Hulu is a month behind).
|7.15.10 @ 4:44PM|#
Yo, I heard Stoss, Moynihan, and Mangu-Ward are going to spark a blunt on FBC.
This is true?
Esoteric|7.15.10 @ 4:56PM|#
Moynihan's more the type to drink openly from a bottle of whiskey on-set.
In other words: my kind of guy.

Fuckin' Micks. Makin' the Scotts look like upstanding folk since Hadrian was building walls. Cause he was scared of those upstanding folk.
hmm|7.15.10 @ 11:52PM|#
lets go with Scots...
|7.15.10 @ 4:52PM|#
So MeMe is coming back to Stossel to try to take on someone less pissed off than The Jacket? She's taking the easy way out, like Lebron.
The Jacket's battle with MeMe was fascinating.
Drax the Destroyer|7.16.10 @ 7:48AM|#
I think the impetus of the battle is some unresolved sexual tension. Or so TV has led me to believe after letting 20+ of garbage being funneled into my eyeballs.

For once, someone is putting the interests of Central Time residents first. (In other words, the show airs at 9:00 p.m. Eastern.)

Okay, some college students are idiots.
Fist of Etiquette|7.15.10 @ 9:42PM|#
The reasons the college students gave for their First Amendment exceptions were so fucking sophomoric.
Mr Whipple|7.16.10 @ 6:53AM|#
They are law students, right? Stos asked them what limitations should be placed on Freedom of Speech, and not one said libel. Lawyers. Fucking, future lawyers. These kids got their heads up their asses, or what?
Libel, you dumb mother fuckers. That's a perfectly legitimate exception to FoS, at least it is for a lawyer.

Nobody! Nobody! Since when does THE Fist of Etiquette care about anything other than his ART!
Do you liveblog for them or for you, is it your art or theirs?
Listen, scrote, if we're going to take this shit national you are going to have to FOCUS---put down the damn bottle and stop feeling sorry for yourself.
Fist of Etiquette|7.16.10 @ 6:07AM|#
That "NOBODY" was part of the mosaic that is my art.

I went out and got drunk, completely forgetting about this groundbreaking Stossel event...Here's a not watched recap of the show--->
Don't worry about other people's behavior if it doesn't directly and negatively affect your behavior.
Fritz Perls|7.15.10 @ 10:56PM|#
Why is it that no one understands that the debate over whether the public is rational and can be trusted to freely choose or irrational and needs persuasion and coercion is irrelevant?
Fritz Perls|7.15.10 @ 11:03PM|#
The evil, immoral, unethical trend in the U.S for the past century, is the fact that politicians, businessmen, bureaucrats, and skinny blonde environmentalist writers ATTEMPT to change or influence the public's behavior with regulations and propaganda
Fritz Perls|7.15.10 @ 11:06PM|#
Stossel is far too nice to these people.
I've given up on them.
(Please forgive the multiple posts, due to fumble fingers.)
hmm|7.15.10 @ 11:12PM|#
God the difference between educated and flaming retarded couldn't have been better displayed than the Katherine/MeMe discussion.
God MeMe has to be the dumbest hair flipping bimbo personality to make the news cycle rounds. It's like listening to Bill Madison's lost puppy speech. I feel dumber for just having listened to her.
Fritz Perls|7.15.10 @ 11:24PM|#
When I look at MeMe, my first impulse is to be attracted to her, to make love to her, but when she opens her mouth and starts speaking her control freak propaganda, I feel that I want to treat her with the utmost cruelty, even sadism.
I imagine myself meeting her socially, and rejecting her with the utmost coolness and indifference.
hmm|7.15.10 @ 11:28PM|#
I imagine her head on a pike at the end of my driveway.
Is that racist?
Fritz Perls|7.15.10 @ 11:36PM|#
Only if you are black.
It might be more cruel to entice her to like me, maybe fall in love with me, and then when her expectations for the relationship are highest, reject and humiliate her.
But what would you say to her, do to her, if you had the chance? What do you feel you are capable of?
hmm|7.15.10 @ 11:46PM|#
Head on a pike. Only way to go.
There's only one cure for stupid.
Old Man With Candy|7.16.10 @ 6:21AM|#
Rodeo sex.
Mr Whipple|7.16.10 @ 6:59AM|#
but when she opens her mouth and starts speaking her control freak propaganda,
That's what they make duct tape for.
Lord Ballsac|7.16.10 @ 7:56AM|#
I'll say it again, MeMe just needs some DVDA ...and to get back in the kitchen and start making my goddamned sandwich.
|7.16.10 @ 8:50AM|#
The heavy leather BDSM has never been my thing, but I think I would really enjoy mistreating and humiliating MeMe, and ya know, I suspect she'd like it, too.
Fist of Etiquette|7.16.10 @ 6:11AM|#
Actually, the jaunt over to Seton Hall painted a pretty good picture of educated stupidity.
