This is what makes it all worthwhile. Having to again wade through all the clips to select the best for the blog. The Betsy McCaughey interview is even important. Enjoy:

And check out this from The Onion. Excerpt:
Congress Deadlocked Over How To Not Provide Health Care
WASHINGTON—After months of committee meetings and hundreds of hours of heated debate, the United States Congress remained deadlocked this week over the best possible way to deny Americans health care.
“Both parties understand that the current system is broken,” House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters Monday. “But what we can’t seem to agree upon is how to best keep it broken, while still ensuring that no elected official takes any political risk whatsoever. It’s a very complicated issue.”
This off-topic yet timely Onion piece is not bad, either.

It is fun to watch everyone in Washington playing bumper cars. Comedy is great, but I hope all you kids under 60 understand that Jon Stuart is not a news man. He just plays one on TV!
