August on Hollywood actor Fred Thompson:
I would like to join the right-wingers in the chorus demanding that Thompson actually announce he’s running. This video, like his previous weak columns and lowly pandering to RedState, continues to indicate how fast he will crash and burn the moment he is forced to actually address an issue without props and setup.
Contrary to August, I don’t think Thompson was a good actor. He was dull and lifeless on Law & Order.

But… but… but.. I thought the 90’s economy was magnificent, powered by the internet stocks, until it all came crashing down the instant Dubya took office!
This is why I’m glad I didn’t major in history. I’m too lazy to keep up with all the rewriting.

Goddamit, Oliver, you are a fucking philistine. The man was in Baby’s Day Out.
BABY’S DAY OUT, WILLIS. Do you know ANYTHING about cinema?
Me thinks Oliver’s recent posts on Fred show he’s scurred of him.
Dianne Wiest, a most excellent actress, was equally bland in the same role on L&O.
Not that Thompson is a great actor, but he’s not normally as bad as he is on L&O.
“This is why I’m glad I didn’t major in history. I’m too lazy to keep up with all the rewriting”
-So that explains the mechanisms behind the Wizbang Blog.
Not that your faithful readership would ever point that out. They’re too busy spening more money on 2nd amendment rights than on dentistry.
I didn’t think I needed to use /sarcasm tags, but PD shows I need to.
Let me spell it out for you, PD: Our gracious host is one of many who talk about how glorious, magnificent, and wonderful the economy was in the 90’s. Others, myself included, say that it was built on bogus grounds. One of the most bogus grounds was the internet bubble, which famously imploded in the “dot-bomb” collapse.
Oliver here is putting down the 90’s economy here, when normally he talks about how great the Clinton years were for the economy, and I was sarcastically calling him on it, subtly accusing him of rewriting history in order to facilitate a cheap shot at Thompson — and not even a good one.

Jay, you obviously weren’t alive in the 90’s, or you would know that people made money off more than “dot.com” companies. I would, for example, like you to explain to me how many “dot.com” companies were in the DJIA, which swelled from 3,300 to 10,500. I am typically amazed by the financial ignorance of conservatives who claim to be economic mavens.
The dot-com bubble didn’t have anything to do with any particular administration, it was just history. It would have happened if Bob Dole had been President. Besides, it may have begun under Clinton but it burst under Bush, so IT WAS BOTH THEIR FAULTS ARARARHGEGGHHL
Ruskies don’t take a dump without a plan, Son…
“I didn’t think I needed to use /sarcasm tags, but PD shows I need to.”
Oh Jay, always an endless source of amusement. You set yourself to get bagged on and then when you are you accuse the other person of not getting the joke. Laziness is a your freakin hallmark, your crest, your credo. Have you ever looked up and verified a fact? What a buffoon.
See, Jay, if you have to explain the joke…..
