Last weekend the Brick TeeVee crew made a roadtrip to the University of Buffalo NY to watch (with our own eyes) General Wesley Clark & Karl Rove square off on the issues. You can read Fisrt-Hand Accounts here, here and here. Listen to Audio of the debate from WBFO (hat tip to Mary @ CCN). What a great time! Check out when Rove gets boo'd. Meanwhile, in DC, we see the merging of the Democrats and Republicans into the One Corporatist Party in passing H.R. 1424 The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008
Dems sell out
So you won't be surprised when every creepy gov't official takes to the airwaves to boast how GREAT this package is! (nowhere to be found is Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich, Bernie Sanders, Paul Krigman and others for the altternate take on this disaster). Cage Matches abound! This Snufagopolis has PAWLENTY vs RENDELL and MARTINEZ vs SHERROD BROWN. Face the Bob has GRANHOLM vs FEINSTEIN & ROY BLUNT vs HEATHER WILSON. Meet the Tom goes with a mega-rountable while U-Boat Captain Blitzer goes with more cage matches featuring Rahm Emanuel vs MARSHA BLACKBURN. A moment of sanity is on FAKE NEWS SUNDAY with BROOKS JACKSON, director of FactCheck.org. 60 Minutes has a feature "Wall Street's Shadow Market" but it's too little, too late. Don't be totally dismayed! Ring of Fire features GREG PALAST and DAN CANTOR, executive director of the Working Families Party (for those that find either party repulsive). The Brick TeeVee crew hunkered down during the Biden-Palin "debate". NOTHING said was beyond boilerplate. See Third Party VP Candidates Matt Gonzalez and Rosa Clemente Respond to Biden-Palin Debate COMING UP: Obama vs. McCain Round 2 on Tuesday Oct. 7th. Supply yer own barf bags and "Hi Bob" drinking words!
