There are worse things than being serious. Being robbed of a country that that we can be proud of is one. We are voting for Obama to restore hope and national pride, without which laughter makes no sense.
Who can blame viewers for wanting a little cavorting with their reporting? Today's voters toggle easily between sober op-eds and faux-news analysts squirting seltzer down the candidates' pants.
Coulter's job is to inject into the Republican echo chamber racist words that would be unacceptable anywhere else, and she's now given away the far Right's anti-Obama strategy.
After the torrential deluge of media and web commentary about the controversial New Yorker cover of Barack and Michelle Obama fist-bumping in Muslim a...
Lori Gottlieb, writing in the Atlantic magazine, has one word for single women of any age: Settle! Settle, she exhorts us, even for the guy who smell...
Anyone who wishes to rid the nation of the dead hand of Republican misrule must be careful not to play into the narratives of the Right. That means you Jon Stewart.
Appearing on The Colbert Report as an author can be a double-edged sword, because while it's high-profile, you are also a punching bag in his bombastic red-blooded American act.

Media-men-hyping-media-men interviews are always softballs. Which is why I laughed out loud watching Jon Stewart voice his distaste for Chris Matthews' new book.
In 2009, when my party will have the House, the Senate, and the White House, what will Jon Stewart have to laugh about?
Bottom line Tina Fey, lay off the Daily Show, until you offer anything remotely as trenchant and just plain funny.
If Obama is the nominee, the late night comics will be the least of his worries, but there's just no denying that Americans pay attention to the comic storylines, and the comic caricatures, of our political figures.
Political satire is only funny when it contains an element of truth. Truth is what mainstream US media have been lacking, post 9/11. And truth, couched in humor, was what Jon Stewart had to offer.
Each year for Independence Day, Time magazine presents a "Making of America" special. This year it features humorist/novelist Mark Twain, in a real departure.

Novak has been playing too much Grand Theft Auto4
What a Scum BAG.. let me guess he was scared.
Has Bush given him a presidential pardon yet?
Most unfortunately,Robert Novak will get away with it- AGAIN !!!!!
If Novak had been given the sentence he deserved after the Valerie Plame mess, he wouldn't have been IN his black convertible. He would have been in jail where he belongs.
This country is a friggin mess.
