Cult worship. A Miami tv station ran a snippet of MO's cameo...saying she had "comedy acting chops".....meanwhile, gasoline and meat prices are soaring....but hey, Michelle Obama is on tv, so it is all good.

I watched one episode of that show. I figured it would be cancelled before the season was out. I guess it just goes to show you peoples’ taste. The same kind of people who that that Portlandia was funny, too I guess.

It is more than that; they are trying to fabricate a “legacy” among Americans That Matter (not the usual gibsmedats that already worship them). This presidency will be remembered in the same way as Jimmy Carter is, and they are trying to doctor that image now. They infuse her into kids’ TV shows and anywhere else possible to feign relevance; she will be the “fitness first lady” (as absurd as that is), I guess “the comedian” as well, the racial healing first lady, blah blah blah...

NBC? What the hell is that?

Not at all unexpected. The Knope character is an over the top democrat worshiper with pictures of Hillary Clinton and Madeline Albright on the wall. I’d watch the show for Ron Swanson alone.

Knope sounds like a shoo-in for Lois Lerner's old job. Would need no training or ramp-up, could hit the ground running on day one killing tea-party applications.

It’s NBC. What do you expect? The other networks are slavishly in the tank for Obama and communism. NBC takes it to the next level.

I usually like the show. They are liberals, but sometimes the writing is witty and the Ron Swanson character is funny.

But last night, as soon as I saw the wookie, I got up and left the room. I had spent all day driving home from northern Vermont. I was tired and generally pissed off at the world. I did not need THAT.

I went to the office for two hours, until Vikings was on. A little debauchery right before bed makes me sleep like a baby.
