Seriously listen to the "we shall fight" speech your grandpa thinks is a masterpiece of oration.

He's slurring through every single line. All he had to do was say "gently caress you we're gonna fight" and this is what Anglos think is great statesmanship.

when you consider how many of churchill's ideas that did get put in action were total disasters or near disasters (usually in the form of an amphibious invasion chosen by throwing darts at a map of europe), the idea that there were even worse ones that didn't happen is truly incredible

What do we think of Stephen Colbert and John Oliver? I listen to 'em for noise while I do other stuff and they sometimes cover stuff I missed in the news, and Oliver in particular shares information about things I'd never even considered or heard about, but neither of them seem particularly authentic.

Colbert is especially bad, since he'll spend one monologue tearing into [insert criminal rear end in a top hat from Trump administration here], and then invite them onto his show and gobble their knob the entire night. I also hate his celebrity guests, and if I had the ability to I'd have Youtube just ignore the guest segments since they never have anything worthwhile to say beyond "GO SEE THIS MARVEL MOVIE, YOU'RE NOT TIRED OF THOSE YET, RIGHT?" and "I'LL BE PERFORMING AT THE FUCKERSUCK THEATER IN CHODECHUNK NEW YORK, TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE NOW" and "BUY MY BOOK I WORKED FOR TRUMP BECAUSE I'M A oval office, BUT I THINK HE'S BAD NOW, SOON TO BE AVAILABLE IN YOUR LOCAL LIBRARY'S REFUSE BIN."

Are there any good, semi-reliable political commenters with a sense of humor out there beyond Hbomberguy and Shaun?

oh god please no, I havn't watched the new show but it can't possible have gotten that bad....could it?

I could kinda sorta see a memorial to, or at least including prominent mention of, Petain going up in 2016 to commemorate the centennial of Verdun since that was his big moment during the Great War, as long as it also included considerable mention of how he turned traitor during the next war and the murderous consequences of his "national revolution" and the collaboration it entailed.
