Politicos in the Distance:

One final note about BEA: Apparently the conference is so huge that you can be on the floor for 6 hours and miss just about everything exciting that happens. Where was I when this sh*t went down (via Travelin Dave)?

  1. Is it me or does this seem like less of a story than it is? Liberal author acts liberal, angry conservative acts angry and conservative? Al Franken is a humorist joking around, Bill O’Reilly learns that his studio tactics (“Shut up! Shut up!! Cut his mic!!!”) don’t work so well in real life.
    Does anyone feel any differently about these guys?

  3. I’ve often thought that the liberals need a few thickheaded folks with knee-jerk reactions to their opponents’ points of view, so as to properly combat Limbaugh, O’Reilly, Coulter, et al. Sure, there’s Michael Moore, but he can’t do the job alone. As such, I’m somewhat disappointed that Franken appears to have reacted civilly to O’Reilly’s babblings.
