What about bigger do you not understand?

Off the Table

Hey Nancy?  What Jon said.

The problem is not that he said it. The problem is that he thinks it. I’m serious. The core problem under the damn law is it was put together by a bunch of elitists who don’t really fundamentally understand the American people. That’s what the problem is.- Howard Dean

The real news and this week’s guests below.

This week’s guests-

The Daily Show

• Wednesday 11/19: Jessica Chastain
• Thursday 11/20: Eddie Redmayne

The Colbert Report

• Wednesday 11/19: Toni Morrison
• Thursday 11/20: Jon Stewart

Jessica Chastain played the lead in Zero Dark Thirty which is reason enough to hate her.  Though her film Interstellar is still in theaters I suspect she’ll want to talk about A Most Violent Year.

Friend of the show Neil deGrasse Tyson on Interstellar–

Toni Morrison is Oprah’s favorite author (which should of course be enough for you), but she’s also the originator of the ‘Bill Clinton, our first Black President’ meme.

Years ago, in the middle of the Whitewater investigation, one heard the first murmurs: white skin notwithstanding, this is our first black President. Blacker than any actual black person who could ever be elected in our children’s lifetime. After all, Clinton displays almost every trope of blackness: single-parent household, born poor, working-class, saxophone-playing, McDonald’s-and-junk-food-loving boy from Arkansas.
