The Brilliance of Tom Brokaw

I have had a hard time locating a video, or transcript, of the Morning Joke Show today, so my transcript of it may not be 100% accurate.

Still working on my first cup of coffee, they babbled on, and among the talking heads was that former Today Show host, Tom Brokaw, sprinkling his wisdom about the studio, and all were pontificating around the pending Obama victory, and how he will govern.

And, there is growing conversation, from the various nitwit pundits, that we have to have a "center-right" government (John "In-the-name-of-the-father-the-son-the-holy-ghost" Meacham had a doozy last week), so, they're already attempting to both rope'em in and diss Obama, at the same time ... A "We're Warning You", type of thing, "We'll allow you some change, but don't fuck with what we've taken years to build - and make millions from"

Mister Swinging Hipster (you know, he's penning those books, chronicling the 1960's; Just what we need, the 60's through the filter of Tom Brokaw) pronounced that, if Obama wins, he was going to need "Republicans, to give him creditability, internationally".

Then, he drops the big winner;

"I've been waiting for either candidate to say that they are going to have a coalition government ... Names ... If you're the Democrat, you say James Baker, here's my number, give me a call ... If you're the Republican, Sam Nunn ..."

James Baker!

Fucking James Baker!

Why-on-earth would Barack Obama reach out to that old Reagan hack, the chief thug, the ringleader who spearheaded stealing the 2000 election away from Al Gore!

Slime Bucket Baker, who's in bed with the Bin Laden Family, the Carlyle Group, Enron, Big Oil, and probably half the countries in the Middle East.

Jesus, Brokaw, have you been asleep through this campaign?

Baker would be, should be, the last person for President Obama to listen to, for I don't gather from what Obama has campaigned on, that he's looking for a compromised, unethical, sleazebag, fixer.

If this is what Brokaw has to say in the wee hours of the morning, I can't wait for Election Night.

We'll probably see him using old, Little Timmy Russert's infamous "white board", as a coaster for his martinis
