...serving up your daily dish.
Tonight, on The Colbert Report, tired, beat up, humiliated Michael Brown is going to get publicly skewered - again - and it's all his own doing. Go figure...from The Eagle.com
Michael Brown, former director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, is tired of being caricatured as an incompetent government appointee who stood by while Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast.
During an appearance before a Senate committee last month, Brown refused to accept all the blame for the government's slow response, insisting that he had warned the White House of the storm's disastrous potential.
Now he's embarking on the next step of his rehabilitation tour: He's going on The Colbert Report.
On Tuesday, Brown is scheduled to sit down with Stephen Colbert - who plays the bombastic, preening cable anchor on Comedy Central's late night mock newscast - for an unpredictable interview in which the only thing the former federal official can count on is the likelihood of being embarrassed.
"It's not mean-spirited humor; it's just good satire," Brown said. "I go in with my eyes open that they will do whatever they can to make fun of me. But I hope people see I'm human and a decent guy."
mmmm I wonder if Colber(silent T) will ask Brownie to say
"Yo tomé dinero de Jack Abramoff."
lol lol

I am astonished at Mr. Heckuvajob's next planned public appearance. Words fail me.
Thank God for TiVo, I can enjoy this train wreck with my cereal in the morning!

"The Apprentice" set in Japan 1903.

Just watched the episode. Unfortunately, Brownie was a horrible interview. I think Stephen's brilliant, but there's only so much you can do when you're having a conversation with someone who has the personality of plywood. Although the one thing that comes out clearly from his pathetic kowtowing - he is obviously not leadership potential, and nobody with a clue should have let him run a lemonade stand, much less FEMA.
