Party Tricks:
Boss Limbaugh was the first to declare an open desire for President Obama's failure...Making it safe (if not mandatory) for other Republicans to follow suit. In our fifth story on the Countdown: Doctor Ada Fisher has become -- 34 days after his election -- the first member of the Republican National Committee to call for Michael Steele's resignation as that Party's chairman. The question tonight: How long until others follow her?
Bush's Brain Freeze: Just one day after his old boss agreed to let him testify before Congress, Karl Rove has already lost it...In our fourth story tonight, making insane allegations-- fittingly-- in an interview with Fox News dot-com. ODDBALL: Jacko's London Farewell and Cow Urine Soda Pop.
Bush Constitution: It was far worse than tortured logic, about torture...It was a dark constitutional fantasy...A remarkably wrong interpretation of the nation's highest laws...Handed over to the Bush administration as if it were... law...Because, for more than seven years, it effectively was. In our third story on the Countdown, the Bush-era, post-9/11, John Yoo Justice Department memos. Scott Horton, the international human rights lawyer who pegged this for what it was -- a blueprint for dictatorship -- will join us presently.
Worsties...see below.
WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD: Ann Coulter, a fella that can't spell Hussein and Bill O'Reilly
Silver Lining: It's been 754 days since a young presidential hopeful stood before a crowd in Springfield, Illinois. Two years later...the candidate has become the President...But the title's not the only thing that's changed... Our number one story...this just in, the President is going gray.
