Rachel played this video again tonight.

I wasn't here back when she mentioned it way back then. I don't understand why this didn't receive massive play when all the hoopla about Reverend Wright was going on? Can someone here enlighten me? This is the first I'd seen of it.

8. Oh, ok.

I figured it wasn't Red Dwarf related, but I wouldn't have remembered it from that. I haven't seen a Danny Kaye flick in eons. My sister loved him when we were kids.

For those who didn’t have the opportunity to watch the Values Voter Debate last evening, you missed quite a display of political pandering, ridiculous rhetoric and all-around right-wing lunacy. You also missed this lovely rendition of “God Bless America” performed by the Church of God Choir, from Springfield, Ohio – reworded to better reflect the Right’s agenda:

5. Well, sorry about that.

I just thought it was interesting (and rather amazing) that this could have happened several months before the revelations about Reverend Wright, and yet, oddly, nobody brought it up in response to the ballyhoo over the selected quotes from his sermons.
