What it is

I’m with dee, except for the part about crocheting, which I once tried just to see if I could - and I couldn’t. I already really like Bill Maher’s show, one of the most fearless and pretty much dead on shows out there. It can only get better, and what a perfect fit. Go, Adam.

I still miss “Politically Incorrect,” actually. And, in my less coherent moments, I really wish Bill Maher would consider a sequel to Pizza Man. Perhaps as a writer for “Real Time” you’ll have some sway so that my dreams can come true?

Rats! The podcasts of Real Time are only available through iTunes. I have a non-iPod MP3 player.

Yo! Adam. If ya need some protection in da new neighborhood, give me a call. Fo’ you, I’d break legs at the goin’ illegal alien rate. Plus, I could use some serious beach time. Call me soon, pisan. Dis city is already stinkin’ hot and it’s only June, ya know w’at I mean?

Ann–just type ¨Adam Felber¨ on Google Maps. (Adam–that´s a heads up. Finger out of nose!)

In spite of our respect for dear Ann’s feelings, ST and I love watching Maher. Yeah, sometimes his material doesn’t work, but it is one of the braver shows dealing with politics on the air, this side of Olbermann. Great news, Adam. You’ll make his show even that much better and we look forward to its return in August, knowing you will be writing for it. Maybe he’ll make you a panelist one week!

Many of the portions of the show get profiled at Crooks and Liars. At least the highlights.

Congrats, once again, Adam.

(tammy grumbling in the corner: stop crocheting… humph! I’m knitting a hoo-doo fertility doll right now!) oh did I say that out loud? oops! Congrats Adam! that’s what I meant to say!

Dale, Dale…sometimes I think back and remember the good times, and I don’t know why we ever split up.

Congrats, Adam! See if you can get Maher to let you write for the GOP stooges he has on. They’ll pretty much read anything off a teleprompter.

Okay, where do you sign up for all those letters of recommendation that have been pouring into the court house trying the Scooter Libby case? Maybe they’ll write letters for me. Let’s see who’s on the list:

Henry Kissinger - Maybe not. I think I told him to bite my crank at an RNC planning committee meeting once. He’s been a little stand-offish ever since.

Mary Matalin and James Carville - Carville’s okay, for a Democrat. At least I can understand what the fuck he’s saying. I never trusted his wife, though. I probably should pass on this duo.

Douglas Feith - Nah. Tommy Franks was right. He is a real dumb shit.

Leonard Garment - I don’t think so. I sued him for libel once - and won! That chunk of change really fluffed up my portfolio, I tell you!

General Peter Pace - He’s still steamed about getting fired from the Joint Chiefs. No telling what he’d say about any loyal member of the GOP.

Richard Perle - Scratch that. The last time I saw him, we were both pretty shit-faced. I told him piss off, that he was fucking up the country with his war dreams of global domination, and that he had a particularly ugly zit on the right side of his nose.

Norman Podhoretz - Doubtful. I passed a rather sarcastic note to Mitch McConnell about Podhoretz’s use of the word “Islamofascism” that somehow wound up in the Congressional Quarterly. I hate journalists!

Donald Rumsfeld - Forget about it.

Former Sen. Alan Simpson - he’s a great guy, but a real clown. You never know what’ll come staggering of his brain.

S. Enders Wimbush - What kind of fucked-up name is that, anyway? Probably just another limp-wristed, faggoty Brit. I don’t see how that helps my case, especially since it’s being tried in Texas.

Richard Armitage - too much baggage and he can’t keep his pie hole shut around reporters.

Okay. I’m screwed.

Congratulations! Maher’s great, in spite of the fact that he once thought a show called Politically Incorrect could have sponsors.

And Tommy, maybe you could give the judge some of those mash notes you used to get from lobbyists before you became an un-person. I’m told that they find the ones with hand-drawn hearts particularly persuasive.

Congrats on the new gig, and the move, etc.
