Left-Leaning Opinion/News Hosts Try To Have a Dialogue With Right-Leaning Nutjobs; Goes About As Well As One Would Expect

By

Via Democratic Underground:

Lawrence O'Donnell asks Orly Taitz about Obama's birth certificate release, she tries to talk about Obama's social security number, Lawrence kicks her ass off.

Cenk Uygar asks Joseph Farah if he's satisfied now; Farah says no because "the government" released the document and Obama's father was not a US citizen, Cenk puts him on the crazy train.

I hate to say this, but on top of the blatant racism of pressuring a black man to prove his legitimacy in this day an age, this modern day racist witch hunt has, for one day, allowed the MSNBC haters to compare O'Donnell to (serial mic-cutter) Bill O'Reilly and Uygar to (Mr. If-You-Don't-Agree-With-Me-You-Suck) Sean Hannity. I will not be surprised to see any "Both sides do it!" posts over the next few days. Again, it's neither of these guys' fault, but you can't engage crazy without consequences to your own image and/or well-being.

I hope that Cenk and Lawrence only invite sane people for engaging debates from now on, and leave the nuts for Arkham Asylum.

UPDATE: Thom Hartmann tries his hand at getting something useful out of Taitz, and has just about as much luck as O'Donnell did. And while Thom did let her ramble on, he (similar Lawrence and Cenk) made sure to close the segment by explaining what this is really about.

For being DC Comic's most recognizable female character, WW has been given the cinematic shaft for a long time. We've seen two incarnations of Lois Lane and countless Bat-groupies, but not one decent pitch for the Amazon in the big screen. And we're talking about a character who made armored underwear cool waaay before anyone heard of Princess Leia. So here's one humble man's suggestion for any future casting of the Wonder Woman movie. I really have three rules for casting: she has to be at least 5'10", under 45 and attractive enough to pass for a princess. Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav
