My latest favourite web site, favourite woman, and other stuff
Although I admit to equal parts "YEAH! Nailed him/her!" and "but can I really count on over 50% of the American voters to actually care about facts?" in my reactions as I read through these on a daily basis.
Samantha Bee is my new favourite woman. SamBee for VeePee! I was just tonight able to watch the Daily Show from Thursday night where she was interviewing people at the RNC about Sarah Palin's pregnant daughter and how they were all saying that it was her daughter's decision to get married and have the baby, and Sam kept trying to get them to use the word "choice". And she really trapped one young woman there who realized instantly she was caught and couldn't get out. It was a beautiful thing to behold.
And tonight's Daily Show had me peeing my pants as one of Jon's minions was at the RNC interviewing a dude in a cowboy hat on rights for gays and the guy walked right into it and made the Daily Show interviewer's point without even having a clue. No clue. Not even a delayed clue.
Watching the Daily Show crew interview random Republican after random Republican at the convention the last three days was like watching someone shootin' fish in a barrel. They just couldn't miss.
In which case with all these dead fish floating around you'd think that the outcome in November would be obvious. But it is anything but. How scary is that?

I believe part of what makes Samantha Bee so awesome is that she's Canadian.
