Did anybody here listen to Fresh Air on NPR this afternoon? The guest was humorist Mort Sahl. I think he made some good observations about the dearth of good political humor. He was critical of the shallow humor of Michael Moore and Al Franken. I think Sahl made some extremely funny points, but I'll take any left humorist we can find these days. Humor and ridicule are our best weapons against the extremist right these days.
I'm dreaming of a Christmas morning present of news that Rush Limbaugh has been flushed out of his Florida spiderhole with a trunk of illict oxycontin.
