I think The Daily Shows website video has been censored again by the WH!
I could be wrong, but here it is, after 9:00pm, and the video of Bush being a major prick to the WH Press corp (including him "...pokeing fun at a vision-impaired reporter..." from the L.A. Times) is not at the website with all the other video from last night.

Anyone else on the web have it?

Here's the link the the Comedy Central "Most recent" page: <http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/the_daily_show/videos/most_recent/index.jhtml>

It's not there. The last time this happened was when Laura Bush was ridiculed (on The Daily Show by Steven Colbert) for her sexually charged remarks at the 2005 WH correspondence dinner.

Btw, the other two videos from last night were pretty good too, especially the Jason Jones bit, where he traveled to Ohio to investigate the Erie County Vote for Precinct Captain that ended in a 43 to 43 tie:

Donkey Showdown -- Jason Jones profiles an Ohio candidate who would like to promote drunk driving on the weekends.

CO2 No Evil -- "An Inconvenient Truth" plays on moviegoers' love of reality and inconvenience.

Here's a link to the CNN story of him apologizing to the reporter: <http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/06/14/bush.apology.ap/index.html>


President Bush mistakenly poked fun at a vision-impaired reporter's sunglasses Wednesday.

5. Was that woman who was advocating drunk driving on weekends
for real or was that a put on? It seemed legit but I can't believe anyone is that stupid, especially her comment about keeping the kids inside. I was sitting here with my mouth hanging open, waiting for a punch line.

6. She's for real. That's micro-town thinking at it best.
What I was wondering was, did Tweety really cover that coin toss? :crazy:

3. She interrupted the Shrub at last years dinner, and started telling how...
...George wasn't much of a Rancher, and how he once tried to "Milk a Horse." She went on to say "Worst than that, it was a MALE horse..."

Then, Steven Colbert pulls out a little tape recorder (that he had to sneak in) and proceeded to play "what she said at the 11:00pm show."

Samantha Bee then did a dead on perfect immitation of her, and expounded on the Horse comments... It was hilarious!

Then the Next day, ol' Ted Stevens threatened FCC action on them.
