Smells Like (Ukulele) Teen Spirit

"This is not an election, it is an intervention."

ookook says...

There's a lot of really interesting subversion of the usual shouting-head TV News stuff here.

"We'll now go to two conservatives with opposing views to talk about it!" This is straight out of an old Tom Tomorrow cartoon. (Liberals? What liberals?)

Then a very pissed-off looking Hitchins bluntly interrupts to say he's not a conservative. I love the stunned look on her face while she tries in vain to absorb the idea that there are people on earth who don't fit neatly into Red / Blue categories.

Then the two opposing points of view turn out to be exactly the same, and exactly the opposite of what you'd expect from a "conservative" pundit.

But my favorite part is when she brings up Kerry's botched joke: "I know you guys both think this issue is so ridiculous that it's not worth talking about! Let's talk about it!"
