Keith Olbermann’s message sometimes gets overwhelmed by his hyperbolic presentation, but not when he gives one of his special commentaries. I agree that if compromising doesn’t get votes, then why bother compromising? I say yank out all of the compromises, or kill the bill.

What is wrong with Joe Lieberman?? Is he one of those drivers who ticks everybody off by constantly changing lanes?
Lieberman’s loyalties are so divided, he seems to have a case of pathological indecision. Here’s Stephen Colbert’s take on Lieberman’s vacillations…

We’re getting a new dishwasher. It’s a Bosch, $598 at Sears, but Lowe’s had it for 20% off.
I’m not so sure we’re saving any money, because in addition to the $155 for installation, there’s $70 in town plumbing and electrical permits, and another $75 to have an electrician there. I questioned the need for that, so I called the Massachusetts Board of State Examiners of Electricians, and was told the state does indeed require an electrician to do non-plug wiring. Lowe’s said the electrician will be there to inspect the work, but I said “No, the town does the inspection. I’m paying the 75 bucks to have the electrician do that work.”
So the total cost for our new $480 dishwasher? Nearly $800. Delivery will be Wednesday morning. I could have hired an independent plumber to do the installation, and I bet he wouldn’t have bothered to pull any permits or have an electrician there, but I wanted to be sure the unit gets installed immediately upon delivery.
That sweet and cute song by Annie Little makes me want to hear something else that’s sweet and cute. Back in August I featured Clare and the Reasons, singing about Pluto. Here, Clare sings about wine…
Clare has a sister named Jenni, who has been a backup singer for David Byrne, as well as doing solo work…
Maybe you’ve seen this charming TV commercial. It’s the one that seems it should be from Apple, but it’s from Amazon…

…and maybe you’ve wondered, “wow, who is that?” She’s Annie Little, and not only is that her singing, she wrote the song, too. Annie is an actress with real star quality — beauty, talent, versatility, personality — yet she’s still looking for her big break. Besides the commercial, Annie’s in the first episode of the third season of “Mad Men.”
Another actress who is best known for her TV commercials had a recurring role on “Mad Men.” Know who she is? Roll over the picture to see.
Could somebody please tell Jon Stewart to stop using his Jerry Lewis impression?
