The Daily Show capped off a hilarious eight year run and paid tribute last night to the man that may have destroyed America, but was a great boon to the comedy industry. With a special "Men in Black-esque" cameo from WH Press Secretary Dana Perino.

I really miss the oldC&L cite. Since changing formats, I can no longer view videos.
Don't see the reason to use the vastly copyrighted asf over any open source codec which are surely not lesser in quality.
But fortunately for daily show and colbert I go directly to the source:
the Daily Show.

When NBC videos are embedded links people like me outside the US borders cannot view them as well. double trouble.
It's our own, and it's downloadable.
It's also fixed now. Small typo in the URL.
I read this program is popular for watching "US only" streams in blocked areas. http://anchorfree.com/downloads/hotspot-shield/
I just installed it. It looks like my anti-hacking-virus software doesn't trust any program to be running my connection, so i won't try it until i know more about it.
Hey Belle it is NOT working. And, yes, it would be helpful if you guys stopped embedding videos that can only be viewed within the US. Of course, whenever you're able.
this is what I get when clicking on the download video link.

Maybe you need to clear your cache before trying again.
I can't control NBC's embeddable software, and we try to avoid using them as often as we can. However, on occasion they ask us to use theirs, and we comply to continue our good working relationship with them.
I'm outside the US and I saw the video.
Under 'Coalition of the Willing' did they forget Poland?
it really was that easy to forget these last eight years.
Peace!
is a cutie. Did a lot better than the tubby fella and the little bald turd.
Surprised they got Dana to play along.
Perhaps Perino is starting to see this administration in the same way that her fellow spokesperson/liar Scotty McClellan came to see these goons. The "mind-wipe" was kind of cute gag, though.
Hopefully Perino will do a Mc Clellan and turn on her evil masters. You never know about Neocons, though.
I don't think Perino believed a word she said in her entire time as press secretary. Somehow that seems worse to me than if she was a total idealogue.
She was never very good at lying. Sweaty Mc Clellan was not the greatest as those flops sweats gave him away, but she was just awful. She's no Ari Fleisher........
Will you love the next 8 years?
I think so.
Because I think Obama is not fucking Clinton.
And I didn't even vote for the guy in the general. Voted for Nader.
guy trying to talk and act white? He didn't even address the real issues of the refugee camps.
but most inhabitants of Lebanon are Caucasian, this is, they are white...
Besides, Nader was born in Connecticut I believe, and he comes from a Christian orthodox family.
Before you give advice about other people's tackling of the "real issues" make sure you at least have a minimal background on said issues.
but point out where I was giving advice. Were you conceived in the backseat of a Corvair or something?
"He didn't even address the real issues of the refugee camps"
There you go.
It is on your post right before mine, I understand that reading and comprehension may not be your strong suits... not to worry, we're here to help.
but I was enjoying a nice meal of lamb, rice and pita.
Explain to me exactly what advice I offered in that simple declarative sentence, which, if you followed current events, you understand is an attempt to satirize racist Ralph for his attempted put down of Obama for not being "black" enough.
But that is OK. Maybe you agree with Ralph that acting white menas you are taking on superior airs; being uppity if you will. His chrisitian heritage means nothing to me as an explanation of his race. Many Baptists I know who are white claim to be Christian but aren't, and many Blacks I know are both. But since you insist on connecting his nationality, race, and religion, then you help explain why he offered no solutions to the oppressed of his homeland. He sides with the Crusader heritage of the Holy Land.
you are one of those types that when found in a predicament think that a tangential nonsensical response makes your shit not stink...
I don't think it is Mr. Nader's fault that you have absolutely no clue what you were talking about.
Nader is white. I fail to see how a white dude, born and raised in Connecticut would act other than "white" (whatever that means in your neck of the woods). Unless you are trying to claim that people who can trace their origins to the land of the Phenicians which were one of the main Mediterranean cultures, and one of the basis of what now is defined as Western World... are somehow "less white" than some retard inbred jackass with a WASP last name. Also, I don't remember Nader saying anything racist against Obama, unless you have to twist that crap he said about Uncle Toms and whatnot... but then you really have to reach out there.
Alas, I guess it is easy for a bully to pick on the elderly... right?
What does an angry pinhead without a sense of humor look like in the mirror in the morning? That is one predicament I have always wanted to hear about from someone with first hand experience.
Also, since you seem to know about developmental disabilities, do those with them have the same propensity for compound sentences as pinheads, grammatically-wise?
Lebanese are Arabs.
Arabs are Semites.
Nader's parents were Lebanese. Makes him Arabic, and ethnically Semitic.
Actually, Lebanese religious-wise are part Arab, part Christian, and part Jewish. Ethnicity-wise, only a faction are Semites... their rooting culture is Phenician, and they view themselves as such. They have been part of multiple empires. And Lebanon's mixed make up, and relative wealth/stability up to recently, is why they used to be known as the Switzerland of the near East.
BTW, Not all Arabs are Semites, in fact a small faction (mostly what now passes as Palestinians) are Semites. That is, incidentally, one of the reasons why the Palestinians are somehow treated as Pariahs by the rest of the muslim world (even thought they make perfect victimization excuses to riddle their "faithful" and distract the Arab masses from their domestic problems).
Nader comes from a Christian family, so ethnically he is a Christian.
Racially, Nader is white. It usually comes as a sock for a lot of Americans to find out that most Middle Eastern and Northern African Arabs, Persians, and Jews are of the Caucasian persuasion.
It is my experience that for such a racially-obsessed society, most Americans have a fuzzy understanding of the differences between race
and ethnicity/culture/religious affiliation.
I found this salute especially poignant:

Brings a tear to my eye...
but his rendition of shoes is rather pedestrian.
There is nothing to laugh about... allowing to make a joke of the past 8 years, by an actor of what now can be safely considered one of the worst administrations in our history, was to me in extremely poor taste.
I appreciate humour... however, I don't much appreciate being laugh at... and that is exactly what I perceived Perino was doing.
They not only got away with everything, they even got to laugh at us all the way to the bank. Shame on the Daily Show for giving a platform to this shithead Perino for doing just that: giving her the last laugh.
May all these bastards rot in hell. I wish I believed in a divinity so that I could rest easier with the certainty this cabal will get their due justice, since it is obvious that justice in this reality will not get to them...
It's good medicine. Especially today.
He is still trying to get over the fact his parents named him after a right wing shit hole town in East Texas.
when you don't know what people are talking about, maybe you should not participate in the conversation?
Andy K obviously knew where I got my handle from... but you seem to have a penchant for thinking you can talk authoritatively about stuff you have no clue whatsoever.
of advice. Thanks. I'll keep it in mind. I will never speak authoritatively in a manner which intrudes on the private blog post conversation of someone who appreciates "humour" so keenly he can "perceive" that things intended as jokes are truly so insidious they merit pissy syhntactically insufferable rants meant for a select few.
Without Bush & Co. to provide daily cannon fodder for Jon Stewart and cohorts, it might have to become "The Weekly Show"
There will always be things to make fun off in politics.
wept and prayed that joe biden is allowed to spend much time in the public eye
cuz lets accept it...obama just aint funny
now joe...he is funny
HA! Your evil plan didn't work, Ms. Perino! I HAD MY EYES CLOSED!
Lets hope the Perino Flash hasn't also wiped the memories of the good people at the Justice Department, Congress, and in the FBI. I don't want to see a repeat of the last eight years any time, ever.
and lie for a living, but damn! she is cute.
Lure of the beast?
and, since they can't gootube the videos non-American fans are locked out. it sux
