I remember the Reagan on the Ten campaign. I didn't know Norquist was behind it. I remember Nancy Reagan of all people telling them to gently caress off.

Veskit posted:Was Reagan remotely close to being bush JR bad? Yes. He was arguably worse, because a lot of Bush Jr was just a continuation of Reagan. Changing the subject, Robert Reich! He's cool. I loved Inequality for All.

MonsieurChoc posted:Yes. He was arguably worse, because a lot of Bush Jr was just a continuation of Reagan. Reich is AMAZING. But, it's depressing that a decade later he's still trying to tell people this information. BAM, he's dead right on that. Democrats failed big time on messaging in that era. And correct about both parties being tainted by big money.

Veskit posted:Was Reagan remotely close to being bush JR bad? Bush had two quagmires of a war lasting about a decade going for him, so it's really hard to compare. However, it could be argued that Reagan is responsible for making both neoconservatives and neoliberalism as pervasive as it is.

I just realized in a couple days we're gonna be wishing they streamed The Colbert Report too. BTW they moved Stewart to new studio in mid-2005 and Colbert would use this one for his show. pwn fucked around with this message at 18:13 on Jul 10, 2015 |

Some combination of Ronald Reagan and 9/11 are responsible for the batshit insanity that is the current Republican Party. For that alone, he's easily close to being GWB bad — and the argument could very easily be made that he was actually much, much worse.

Lol, Bush showing up at church things to say that, as a "compassionate conservative" who believes state and local government should have more power, don't worry because the federal government will defend Christian's rights to poo poo on people's dreams.

Morroque posted:Comedy Central doesn't allow streaming for Canada, so my only impression of the evolution of Jon Stewart is this thread so far. Was he really super in-line with elite opinion 10 years ago? Did the change into what we have of him now happen bit-by-bit as the fact that the Iraq War Was A Lie became more and more difficult to deny? Or they started to hire on more writers that were just in the style of what we have now? Or are we still waiting for The Moment where Jon cracks and just won't take it anymore? You can watch the month of zen stream with a free proxy pretty easily from Canada.

I wish all of these episodes were available for streaming all the time. This is one of the best glimpses back in time I can think of and shines light through the memory hole of all the terrible poo poo we went through in the GWB administration. I wish I could have caught the episodes prior to that, though.

Anchorman! John Edwards was beyond a mess haha, that dude was a straight up implosion. I can't think of a more insane end to a campaign as his. Staffers were bailing left and right and felt so angry with his behavior that they all turned on him instantly.
