And here's a clip of Oprah asking if Levi Johnson was invited for Thanksgiving dinner. Pretty dumb question. She should know that you never invite your kid's ex to a family dinner, there would be all kinds of tension: Watch CBS News Videos Online
The producer of the "Matrix" and "The Lord of the Flies" is making a movie about the Prophet Mohammad but since Mohammad can't be depicted, how are they planning to make a movie about him?
A film about the Prophet Mohammad backed by the producer of "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Matrix" is under discussion, a Qatar media firm said on Sunday, aiming to create an English-language blockbuster for the world's 1.5 billion Muslims.
Colbert offers his very funny take on the Pope's offer to the Anglicans (he even gives us a very succinct history lesson of the original break between the churches). He has as his guest Episcopal priest, Father Randall Balmer, (author of God in the White House and Thy Kingdom Come: How the Religious Right Distorts Faith and Threatens America) to offer him the chance to join the "winning side." Blamer wasn't too interested, too many negatives and not enough positives (like the gospel) coming out of Rome.
At least some of their content: Chase Carey, News Corp.'s deputy chairman, suggested in comments he made at the OnScreen Media Summit that it's just a matter of time before Hulu, the video service founded by News Corp. and NBC...
From the Obama approved network, CNN asks a psychiatrist, why do people listen to conservative talk shows like Rush Limbaugh? And of course the answer is predictable. If they really wanted an answer, they would only have to watch their...
Mildly amusing SNL skit stating the obvious: Actually, he wasn't George Bush for 11 days. BTW, TimesOnline makes the case for why this is a snub against Bill Clinton. (via and @mattklewis)...

Rightwingers should calm down, Obama's hasn't done anything yet is the gist of the skit: BTW, you have to agree that Afghanistan is worse off now. He still hasn't capture bin Laden as he promised on the campaign trail. Another...
Kudos to Behar for standing up for free speech: Bette Midler should really think about limiting speech to what she approves. One person's hate speech is another's opinion. Who does she want to make that decision? Glenn Beck responds....
Ralph Nader has written a novel! And it sounds pretty wacky as only a Nader utopian society could be: Ralph Nader has written a novel. Well, he doesn't call it a novel--he calls it "a practical utopia." In it, he...
How embarrassing for the person who left their cell phone on. I've forgotten to turn mine to vibrate a couple times when I was in seminary but only received one call. Very embarrassing. And usually I remember to put it...
OK, this is a little old but in case you missed it, Glenn Beck mocked by SNL (he's nailed the idiot voice). The skit with Paterson is also pretty funny, NJ is a pretty easy target. (via)...
Well, it looks like Ayers had a big hand in writing Obama's book (which doesn't come as a surprise since that was the speculation last year). Ayers was sent the notes and recordings of interviews with Obama family members:Andersen continues,...

So, in communist countries, I'm sure that the propagandists make decent money but do you think it's at the level of Michael Moore? Would a propagandist's film be promoted by a magazine in a penthouse furnished by sponsors:Following the Premiere,...

So, you pay to go to a conference and while you're there the press decides to broadcast while you're trying to listen to the speakers, wouldn't you be a little ticked? You'd think reporters would get it that people want...
I'm glad to see that he included jokes about the voter fraud as well: (via) Jay Leno isn't the only one making fun of the scandal. Also happy to see that the House overwhelmingly agreed with the Senate that the...
Kind of felt sorry for West when Leno asked about his mom. I thought that was a little over the top, especially since his mom died a couple of years ago during a cosmetic surgery: I'm not sure people are...
Further proof that it's the left who can't see past race. First we have this guy's interpretation of our corporate outrage over Kanye West's classless(and maybe drunken) act of taking the mic from Taylor Swift to insert himself in her...
I can't believe he rudely took away the microphone from Taylor Swift (one of my 13 year-old's favorites) and cut short her acceptance speech just so he could voice his opinion. How incredibly narcissistic must this guy be to think...
Could you imagine if her mother-in-law wins? Open session on all comediennes, you'd have a feeding frenzy! Plenty of fodder in this trial for her act since her husband's law firm is representing her in the legal battle against his...

One of the annoying things about the iTouch is that it isn't easy to listen to streaming radio on it. So, you can imagine how happy I was to find that K-LOVE has an app for the iTouch/iPhone. Much easier...
