Monday, Hour 2!

It's been an eventful first hour. Joe From Brooklyn called in -- yes, he of the infamous "I want to punch you liberal smokers in the nose" statement. He's still hot under the collar.

Coming up this hour, Sidney Blumenthal on his Salon.com article, All Roves Lead to Rome

Thanks to all who have submitted their predictions for the Gonzo Is Gonzo contest. Shoot us an email to samsedershow @ gmail com if you want to receive the maiden voyage of The Sam Seder Show newsletter.

Remember when Ethan in Portland called in and said that Gonzales would be fired shortly after Bush voiced his unequivocal support for his attorney general? From AP today:

WASHINGTON - President Bush sent a powerful message of support Tuesday for embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, calling his longtime friend to express unwavering support in the face of calls for his resignation.

The White House also denied reports that it was looking for possible successors for Gonzales. "Those rumors are untrue," White House deputy press secretary Dana Perino said.

Bush called Gonzales from the Oval Office at 7:15 a.m. EDT and they spoke for several minutes about the political uproar over the firings of eight U.S. attorneys, an issue that has thrust the attorney general into controversy and raised questions about whether he can survive. The White House disclosed Bush's call to bolster Gonzales and attempt to rally Republicans to support him.

"The president reaffirmed his strong backing of the attorney general and his support for him," Perino said. "The president called him to reaffirm his support."

Words never uttered by a human being: "I was listening to The Sam Seder Show today and Joel interrupted with a really funny, non-annoying comment."

I was listening to The Sam Seder Show today and Joel interrupted with a really funny, non-annoying comment.

Somebody was asleep at the switch,.. did you see how the last time Sam said Fubar,.. he had to say Fubar twice before the "Fubar Tape" was triggered. Sam likes to get that Fubar self promotion ad in there everytime he says F-U-B-A-R,.. his daughter might need braces for her teeth down the road in the future.

God Bless Sam,.. enterprising fellow he is.

you mentioned a blog which had prescient comments about how the sub-prime mortgage fiasco will be dumped into taxpayers laps.

What's the name or link to the those comments

What do I got, another hour before air-time?

Okay, just organizing my papers.....hmm?...Seder?


No, he's not a great lead-in, most of his cult of personality Fringers don't listen, but rumor has it that's not going to go on for much longer. Had lunch with Stephen yesterday and we got something in the works.

Maybe Sam can write another "best seller" or do a "Sex & The City" reunion movie....don't really care.

-- Democratic Party sources have reported to WMR that Karl Rove and a team of Republican Party election manipulators he has used in the past for tampering with U.S. elections, particularly in Florida, Ohio, and New Mexico, are under investigation by the Italian government of Prime Minister Romano Prodi and the opposition Democratic Revolution Party (PRD) of Mexico.

Rove throws electios for Fascists

Is it possible that someone once told Joel, as a joke, that he'd make a great co-host and that Joel, having no sense of humor, believed them?

I think Joel gets lamer every day. In another week his lameness will cause Air America to implode on itself. It will then become a black hole that will destroy all life as we know it. Someone should just take away his microphone and save us all.

saddam and all his cronies are getting hanged for offences they committed 20 years ago. it's a good thing bush is taking good care of himself so he can live to see his own hanging 20 years from now.

Oh... Joel just has a dry sense of humor,.. he is a good countercheck for Sam,.. who often as the absent minded professor he is - he is prone to get lost, exaggerate, or deviate,.. Joel pulls him back on track if he de-rails himself.
