Two Shows Tonight TRY TO WAKE UP AMERICA: Boston Legal and The Daily Show
On Boston Legal, the character Alan Shore, made an awesome speech asking the question, "When will Americans Be Outraged?!?!" If you didn't see it, try to catch a replay of it.

On The Daily Show, Paul Hackett did a beautiful skit showing how the Democratic party needs to STAND UP FOR WHAT IT BELIEVES IN... America is ready for this now.

2. Saw the Daily Show, it was great truth telling once again
and telling it about our own party squashing Hacketts Senate run. Saw an other thread on Freepers writing letters to Boston Legals advertisers and mad about a TV show exposing the lie they love to defend.

3. I saw them both & thought they were great
also on David Letterman - Al Franken + good jokes by Dave- great top 10. My wife said that the Boston Legal show was one to tape. She wants to hear the court room speech again, but no jibber jabber.

11. Wow, I've never watched "Boston Legal" because it's on Fox,
but maybe I'll start.

Powerful and so very true...

14. Well, it's quite obvious that I don't watch too much commercial TV...
About all I watch on a regular network is Law & Order and ER..
