What A Shame About Jay, (Leno)

I turn on Jay at night to go to bed with a laugh before heading off to whatever is next......

I love the headlines bit and he really makes me laugh......but tonight's continued tirade on GWB made me turn him off..... I could not stand another crack from some "entertainer" about how the President of our country, the most important man on earth in many ways, (because he effects so many lives) and we constanly have to listen to people who haven't accomplished a thimbal full tell him and us what they think...and it's unceasing.......and worse: it's getting BORING......

Grow up Jay, or you're going to lose the people that still do watch you.....don't be fooled by polls......you're in TV, you know how numbers can be made to lie.......

Yeah. My sister in law sent me this:

While I DO appreciate the originality and creativity needed to make something like this, the material is kind of old.

Ann Coulter nailed it dead on in her book Slander.

(I paraphrase from memory, with apologies to Ann Coulter)

"Liberals haven't been able to come up with a new insult. Republicans are stupid. And when they aren't stupid, they are scarily evil. Every Republican is more stupid than the last one. Eisenhower was stupid. Nixon was evil. Bush Senior was stupid. Bush 43 is even stupider. The only good thing is, history has to eventually raise the IQ of some previous Republicans, because otherwise, liberals run out of room on the bottom and they have trouble making this Republican stupider than the last one. So, Reagan is now getting an unintended IQ boost, a 'dunce' no longer...but only to make room for Bush at the bottom."

Um, let's see...because we're not one-issue voters? Because we think W makes sense on this issue? Because we think there are other vastly more important issues? Because we believe it is important to support--and not tear down--an honest hard working president during time of war?

I could write more, but as Gary Cooper said (three times) in "High Noon," "If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand."

Note below. (But also at least Jay made a joke once that pointed out the MSM liberal bias:

"According to the New York Times, a group of liberal venture capitalists are in the process of developing their own liberal radio network to counter conservative shows like Rush Limbaugh. They feel the liberal viewpoint is not being heard -- except on TV, in the movies, in music, by comedians, magazines and newspapers. Other than that, it’s not getting out!")

Jay Leno: I am a Liberal, Really

By Nikki Finke, LA Weekly. Posted September 16, 2004.

The late night host defends himself against charges of a conservative bias in a no-holds barred interview.

Jay Leno says, “I’m not conservative. I’ve never voted that way in my life.” He “really worries” what a Dubya victory in November will do to the makeup of the Supreme Court. He believes “the wool was pulled over our eyes” with the Iraq war. He thinks the White House began using terrorism “as a crutch” after 9/11. He feels that during the campaign Kerry should “make Bush look as stupid as possible.” He believes “the media is in the pocket of the government, and they don’t do their job” so “you have people like Michael Moore who do it for them.” He has on his joke-writing staff a number of former professional speechwriters for Democratic candidates. “No Republicans.” When it comes to Bush, he doesn’t think his politics are much different from Letterman’s. “Does he show his dislike maybe a little more than I do? Probably.”

Leno used to read Mother Jones magazine.

Could it be? Is it possible? Is Leno, “the right comic,” really a closet lefty?
