15. Oh yea, I would consider it a great honor to be allowed to sit in
on a staff writers meeting. They must look at each other sometimes and say, we have enough material for 2 hours tonight, not 30 minutes!

To me, Lewis is terrific not just for his writing, but his delivery, style, and great face..it's the whole package that
makes it work. Ya have to love him for it.

29. I loved it!!!
also loved when he showed the clip with Beck attempting to equate Niemoller's quotes with the banks. "First they came for the bankers" etc.... Now if Beck really quoted all of Niemollers quote his clueless audience would have noticed that they came for the "communists" and they came for the "socialists." How Beck could even compare the quote to corporations is way beyond me. The guy is either doing the schtick for the money or he's gotta be stark raving mad.

32. Yes, he pointed our the faulty reasoning the righties use to
make connections and then draw a conclusion that is so out there, it doesn't make sense.

35. I love the way Beck's guests have this look on their face
like, "I don't really know this guy, I am not agreeing with him in any way." lol.

36. I saw his concert movie a few months ago, STARK RAVING BLACK.
He is just too cool.

He's our generation's Jewish curmudgeon.
