The nation's most "fair and balanced" network gave up over 20 minutes of its premiere Sunday "news" show to nation's loudest conservative voice. With little resistance, Fox News' Chris Wallace allowed Rush Limbaugh to continually attack President Barack Obama. Limbaugh called Obama "the man-child president," accused him of visiting the families of fallen troops for a photo op and said the president doesn't care about the war in Afghanistan.

"You suggest that he is taking all of this time to decide what to do in Afghanistan to keep his left wing base on board for health care reform," suggested Wallace.

"Well, it's partly that, but I also don't think he cares much about it," replied Limbaugh. "See, this is -- I know this is going to sound controversial, but i don't think he cares."

Limbaugh went on to call health care reform an "attack on liberty" and an "attack on freedom."

"We've never seen this kind of radical leader at such a high level of power in this county," said Limbaugh.

(Come on, admit it - it just wouldn't be Halloween without Alice Cooper, would it?)

A little something to put you in the Halloween spirit - a concert from July 1975 featuring Alice Cooper at the Fabulous Forum in Los Angeles.

Play loud - play often.

I came across this photo and sent it to my Photoshopper buddies for magic or captioning. Driftglass calls it "Wasilla's Sense of Snowe," and the photoshops came in from Zaius, Tengrain, D-Cap, Darkblack, and Mark Hoback at Fried Green Al-Qaedas.

They went to North Korea so they could be arrested, sentenced to twelve years hard labor and then get rescued in the nick of time. It was one big photo op. A setup so President Clinton and the Obama administration could look good.

You know it's coming somewhere down the road. Laura Ling was way too nice to President Clinton.

Karl Rove begrudgingly said that it worked out pretty well, but that Jimmy Carter should have gone instead. That was his troll logic.

(In lieu of an actual photo of the band, which may or may not have ever existed)

The United Fruit Company - "Yes, We Have No Bananas" - York Records 1967.

No doubt something someone put together on a whim, cashing in on the sort-of twenties/smoking bananas craze around 1967, this little ditty appeared briefly and was just weird enough to make for rather pleasant listening. Nothing much is known about the band, or the musicians who played on it if there actually was a band.

Let's put it this way - don't lose sleep trying to figure out the earth shattering historic importance of this disc. It's not there.

It's just another shade of cheerful goofiness that was part of the 60's.

And no, the bananas didn't get anybody high.

(In all likelihood, the ones in this photo are probably the parents of the ones demonstrating today)

The eerie similarities in news reports from 1978 and this past weekend. In 1978 it was overthrowing the Shah. In 2009 it was reaction to a rigged election. In 1978 the overthrow was hijacked by extremists bent on employing their own forms of repression. In 2009 it's the repressive regime bent on suppressing the majority's desire for reform.

Where this story will end is anyone's guess at this point. But I suspect the ride, as it was in 1978, will be very bumpy.

"Well gee, if the amnio had warned me he'd be like this, I'da rethunk my 'culture of life' mumbo jumbo, you betcha!"

Caption this photo[shop] in comments yourself, or use it as an open thread...Happy weekend!
