We already knew Sharon Osbourne had little control over her sharp tongue, but I think she’s taken it a little too far this time. She’s gone after Susan Boyle! She made these comments on The Opie & Anthony Show: “You just want to say, ‘God bless — and here’s a Gillette razor.’ [God] gave her the [...]
MSNBC’s David Shuster isn’t impressed with the intelligence of the American people – and even said so on a liberal talk-radio show. On the nationally syndicated Stephanie Miller show on Thursday morning, Shuster blamed the election returns on the "fact" that the ignorant public can’t focus on more than one issue at a time: SHUSTER: You can make an argument, and I...
On Friday's "Ed Show', with David Shuster filling in, former GOP congressman Tom Tancredo took offense to something said by Daily Kos' Markos Moulitsas as the two discussed healthcare reform.

Here's the rather excellent Peter Serafinowicz sharing some of his 'favourite' movie lines with us. If you don't laugh, you probably have no soul. Seriously.
Last night on The Ed Show, David Shuster was filling in. On one segment the guests were Markos Moulitsas and Tom Tancredo. The buzz is all about Tancredo storming out because Markos pointed out that Tancredo got a medical deferment from Vietnam service (because of depression) while Markos served in the military. Everybody has that. I want you to watch the last minute, which is Shuster's comment. He's...
