ATTN Jon Stewart: Will you be making funny faces at this one? http://tr.im/iJTg Hey, one of the reporters should have asked about housing.

How do you say "I'm gonna kick those privates in their pirates" in Austrian?

***

They said if I voted for John McCain, the President of the United States would clamp down on privacy. And they were right! http://tr.im/iKlO

"We need to revive him. Get my gas can!" http://tr.im/iKxy

So, POTUS authorized killing some guys because he thought they had weapons they didn't have? And the left is okay with it? http://tr.im/iKEs

OBAMA PREVARICATED, PIRATES WERE AERATED

A Countdown guest just fainted after Olbermann sucked all the air out of the room.

***

Why do the pirates hate us? http://tr.im/iLQd And if the U.S. killed them even though they had no ammo, is that better or worse than Gitmo?

***

Selective outrage: http://tr.im/iLTT "1, 2, 3, 4, America should stay ashore!" Somehow I don't think we'll hear anything like that.

Andrew Breitbart on Jon Stewart: "He's as fearful of an opposing voice as he is his own last name." Oh, it's on. http://tr.im/iLXD

Question for everybody who thinks the Somali deal was an unqualified success: Why didn't those guys give up when the Navy arrived?

Dear DHS: It's great that we have a black president. It'd be even better if our black president was doing a good job. http://tr.im/iNT9

Wow, Jim Belushi just doesn't care anymore, does he? http://tr.im/iOsK

No matter what, Al Franken can take pride in the fact that he got more votes than "Stewart Saves His Family" got dollars. http://tr.im/iOKJ

Somewhere, John Chancellor and David Brinkley are looking down and beaming with pride: http://tr.im/iPEy

So if I go to a Tea Party, do I get paid off there, right on the spot? Or do they send me a check? Please be more specific, Jane Hamsher.

Tonight on Fringe: The team track down FOX execs who keep letting American Idol go long; infect them with flesh-eating virus; point, laugh.

Ladies and gents, David Burge: http://tr.im/iQmf I know just enough about the netroots to get the jokes, but not enough to get mad at them.

***

Why is it Obama only really comes alive when he's describing what he's going to make me do and how he's going to spend my money to do it?

***

Forget all that stuff about Obama making America look weak in the eyes of the world. False alarm. http://tr.im/iQKW

***

You're angry at me for speculating that Obama's photo op was fake? Imagine how I felt when you said the same thing about Sarah Palin's baby.

***

I just lashed out in a frightening display of rightwing extremism by muttering a rude word when I put my taxes in the mailbox. ("Geithner.")

***

I'm a bad guy for speculating that maybe POTUS manipulated a photo op. But hundreds of rallies w/ thousands of people each must be "a work."

***

Continued string of savage rightwing extremist acts by flipping through channels and rolling eyes at MSNBC. Later: May make Olbermann joke.
