Oh Chris,
You've made your last appearance on 'Countdown'. Olbermann can give it out, but can not take it.

GROW UP.

Great. Now faux humor from faux journalists.
Jon Stewart has nothing to fear from these two frat boy clowns.
Stick with print. Better yet, quit that too.
Mouthpieces indeed.

". clear this kind of unusual activity with your wife or another clear headed mentor"

Caveman suits? Smoking jackets? Video production in the basement? Something tells me the wife wouldn't want to know. What happens in the basement with Milbank is strictly don't ask, don't tell.

Don't quit your day jobs.

On second thought, Milbank, please DO quit yours.

I am troubled by the fact that I enjoyed this, but I did.

Ok, I got the song wrong. The correct song is K is for KOOKY!

Now all they need is blue feathers or green fur.

I told you before.. clear this kind of unusual activity with your wife or another clear headed mentor.. you might not be safe 'in your own head'....

I wonder if Zouk could ever post on topic. Anyone? Anyone?

Nope. Guess not.

Hilarious, thanks for putting in extra time to bring some humor to the political news of the day!

I wonder if obambi is going to apologize for our arrogant war of choice and our forcing of a government on the Nazis today at Normandy.

OK. Two laugh out loud moments. (Not enough of a web geek to write LOL). Loved the bit about the deputy assistance secretary for office supplies. And, of course, the bit on the Washington Times.

Chris & Dana,

I'm running out of adjectives, but I do find you (ya'all???) hilarious.

Being hampered by REAL (if trivial) political facts, you're no threat to Jon Stewart as yet, however I wouldn't bet money on your not overtaking him in future!

Chris, the bit about Egypt's Prince was treading on thin ice, wasn't it? Perhaps the pot is calling the kettle hirsute, wouldn't you say?

Posted by: sverigegrabb | June 5, 2009 7:56 PM | Report abuse

Jon Stewart's job is safe.

Of course, he finds the humor that sheds light on the big stuff instead of such gentle ribbing on peripherals. I suppose this is good enough for inside the beltway: if Coulter passes as a hot blonde I suppose you two can pass for comics.

This is political satire that only hard core politics geeks like myself, who already read your column three times a day, would enjoy.

Posted by: jameshauser | June 5, 2009 5:32 PM | Report abuse

Very funny.
