American TV is starting to resemble the political education classes in Mao's China and Stalin's Russia.

[Mr.Atos]

By all means, let them continue to advocate this position at CBS. There are a heck of a lot of people in Portland Counties tonight who will be watching TV while writing out $500 - $1000 checks to their local government for new income tax 'surcharges' who won't feel regret at the Bush tax cuts, but will feel 'stupid' about the local Liberal leadership that they have supoported for years. Perhaps it is a good time to distribute new voter registration cards.

Perhaps we should thank CBS and Danson for the reminder as to who is actually out of touch and truly stupid.

I'm trying to recall the Asian country the Clinton IRS let Hollyweird types get of with tiny income taxes in.

Then too, Bill Clinton bought that Irish golf course villa in a tax sheltered area to avoid paying income taxes on his ghost-written in the USA book. Some kinda "artists" tax exemption there.

[Bluntpoint]

The good ole days!

CBS's Becker Sit-Com Blasts "Stupid" People Who Favor Tax Cuts

Shouldn't the Supreme Court ban this type of advertising also?

[ladyinred]

I won't even watch re-runs of Cheers because of Ted Danson and Woody Harrelson. Commies both.

Neither will I among other shows, including Becker.

[Reagan79]

Unfortunately I thought the Republicans and Bush are out spending all of the liberals in history. CBS and Danson should be loving that. We need to cut taxes and cut spending, why does nobody in D.C. ever do that? (Don't answer, it is a rhetorical question)

[martin gibson]

CBS has announced that it won't return next season.

...see what happens when you just DON'T WATCH...?

Ted Danson "jumped the shark" when he kissed Whoopie Goldberg. Who cares what spews from his mouth.

[Spok]

When Danson speaks without a script in front of him, it's an insult to talking heads everywhere.

[usadave]

That means less money for the state, which means less money for the city, which means we had to cuts services, which means fewer cops, fewer firemen, bad air, bad water, and crappy schools

There would also be less money to hire lazy, fat-cat, six-figure salaried bureaucrats.

[Bluntpoint]

Whoopi! The face behind erectile dysfunction!

Ted Danson "jumped the shark" when he kissed Whoopie Goldberg. Who cares what spews from his mouth.

Now there a happy accident. Two sentences that talk about different events, but make more sense when read as a sole action....

[Alex Murphy]

"You discovered a social injustice and as a concerned citizen you have come to your government to demand some action."

Hmmm...I wonder what's wrong with this sentence?

[BigSkyFreeper]

MRC thinks it's bad now, just wait until 30 to 60 days before the election. Leftist comedy shows just reeking with political connotations all over the damn place.

[toddst]

. . . his best friend was apparently a blind, gay, black guy -- no, I'm not making this up!

Well maybe not, but mostly you weren't paying attention. The man is NOT gay, is always looking for a good girlfriend who likes him. You clearly didn't watch enough to know who was what.

Danson is obviously an obnoxious liberal but the show is funny IMO.

[exile]

I had no idea this show was still on the air. I've never actually seen an entire episode, though while surfing through the channels, I'd occassionally stop on it because the one girl (the ditzy one) is a knockout.

[OrioleFan]

Maybe it would be good when any of these shows take a swipe at conservatives or conservative ideas, that we contact the FEC and demand equal time, and that the equal time allow us to play the clip and provide our response during the commercial time for the show.

[longfellow]

maybe if they got rid of all my taxes I would have plenty of money to pay any doctor i want cash and wouldn't have to worry about insurance.
