PROGRAMMING ANNOUNCEMENTS

LIVEBLOG OF THE DEBATE OR WHATEVER, LATER: Mean old Barack Obama is going on Jay Leno or something at 8:00 ET tonight for another primetime press conference. There’ll be loads of questions about god knows what; anything from the future of currency flows to retarded bowling games to that pop star who beat up his pop star girlfriend. Sam Stein will ask why the Republicans aren’t all in jail. Too exciting for words! So return here a few minutes before 8:00 ET for our liveblogs, and don’t forget beforehand to buy all the liquor ‘n’ guns Prince George’s County has to offer. [ABC News]

    Canuckledragger: Why do all the best Wonkette live-blogs occur during happy hour?

  4. Brendan M. says at 6:47 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Canuckledragger: Kev-O-Tron: Christ, you both sound like the TV networks whining about doing their civic duty and losing their ad revenue for an hour…

  5. grevillea says at 6:48 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Kev-O-Tron: Causation or mere coincidence? Hmmm, needs more reshearch…

  6. shortsshortsshorts says at 6:50 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Why the hell is he going back on Leno?

  7. Kev-O-Tron says at 6:50 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Brendan M.: unlike ad revenue for the networks these things are important and vital to the health of any representative democracy.

  8. shortsshortsshorts says at 6:50 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Barry is doing well in the Nielsen’s.

    Hes getting M*A*S*H* numbers, before Henry and Trapper left numbers.

  11. Texan Bulldoggette says at 6:58 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Drunken live blog. Three best words. Ever!

  12. graceless says at 6:58 pm, March 24th, 2009

    What’s the cue to drink?

  13. JimNewell says at 7:02 pm, March 24th, 2009

    graceless: Chug a full beer every time he makes fun of retarded kids.

    shortsshortsshorts: GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME MAN

  14. Cicada says at 7:02 pm, March 24th, 2009

    americanscandoanything:

  16. NoWireHangers says at 7:06 pm, March 24th, 2009

    NOOBAMA WILL BE USING HIS PRECIOUS TELEPROMPTER NO DOUBT!1!

    SHOW US THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE!!

  17. sarcasticusername says at 7:15 pm, March 24th, 2009

    any bets on who asks the dumbest question of the night? i’m going with Chuckie T.

  18. Texan Bulldoggette says at 7:16 pm, March 24th, 2009

    NoWireHangers: From those intrepid asswipes at Politico:

    “Reporters will surround POTUS in a semi-circle. No signs of his preferred teleprompter. Obama is rumored to be ditching the teleprompter on both sides of the podium and will be reading off a box toward the back of the room.”

  19. recharged95 says at 7:17 pm, March 24th, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: It’s to get location of that secret car garage in Burbank that Leno’s been advertising on the tubes lately (if you watch car shows of course).

    No one can resist gas guzzling Ferrari hotness… cause it will get you…. hotness.

  20. NoWireHangers says at 7:18 pm, March 24th, 2009

    A Real Simple Drinking Game:

    1 Shot*: Economy, Crisis, Million, Billion, America

    2 Shots: Trillion, Bernanke, Geithner, Recession

    Mug of Meatballs: Sweden, Swedish Crisis, Ikea

    Bottle of Tequila: Amero

    Bottle of Goldschläger: Gold Standard

    Plate of Arugula: Victory Garden, Organic

    *I’d suggest shots of beer unless you want to die 5 minutes in, which may be the prerogative of some Wonkette readers. Who am I to judge?

  21. Nerdalicious says at 7:37 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Piyush will be doing the volcano monitoring buttal tonight. Wow, Rethugs have deep pockets to keep recycling that comedic goldmine: Bobby “Brady Bunch” Jindal.

  22. graceless says at 7:46 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Jim Newell: I wish he’d invite them to the presidential bowling alley, and play in a tournament with them.

  23. cranky says at 7:49 pm, March 24th, 2009

    sarcasticusername: i hate chuck todd, i hate chuck todd, i hate chuck todd. (said in the voice of the cowardly lion)

  24. thatonegirlsays says at 7:56 pm, March 24th, 2009

    This is HORSE SHIT. Citizens in the people’s republic of Communistwestcoastia will be commuting home during this time and will not have access to booze whilst listening to NPR. Or, those of us who are using public transportation and will share seat space with real, actual season hobos can get a can of Natty Light but no NPR.

    I AM NOT PLEASED.

  25. Alpha O. Mega says at 7:58 pm, March 24th, 2009

    Who are these “Republicans” of whom you speak? There are only two political parties in this country: the Democrats and the Antidemocrats.

  26. imissopus says at 8:04 pm, March 24th, 2009

    thatonegirlsays: Not us unemployed communists! Of course we’ve all been drunk all day.

  27. shortsshortsshorts says at 1:14 am, March 25th, 2009

    YA WHATEVS HE’S A BETTER ORATOR THAN A SOCIALIST, WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING. Hummy Jim Carter did the same thing, and he was probably the same fiber as r nuu Prezdint. Therefore, we must ban any new PrezNOT from taking rights from teh peeeepol. Dat iz oll. Frainds.
