The End of 2 Human Sound Bites


With the Democrats winning the election, one of the 2 best human sound bites of all time will be fading into the woodwork (albeit frozen woodwork), Sarah Palin. She provided so much material for the media and entertainment industry that she will be missed. Tina Fey's portrayal of her just won't be funny anymore. Keith Oberman's Countdown satire will be a little less entertaining. Matt Lauer followed her home to try to keep the Palin entertainment train rolling along. She will be missed.

The second best human sound bite, GW Bush is due to vacate the White House in January and the likes of Letterman, Oberman and party are wondering where they are going to get their material from. We have been enteraintained, at our expense, by Bush Jr for the past eight+ years and while we were laughing, we really got hoodwinked.

Obama doesn't strike me as someone who says stupid things, but the media hounds will be praying for just that. Time to get back to the boring business of politics and turn this waywered ship around.
