  • Holy Halliburton. If you appreciate shocked silences and slow-motion train wrecks, you must MUST watch Stephen Colbert‘s in-character skewering of President Bush at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. By about five minutes into the routine, dear Dubya looks like he’s passing a kidney stone. (In three parts: part 1 and part 2 are hilarious; part 3 far less so unless you’re one of those, uh, “Helen Thomas people.”) [C-SPAN]
  • And though her rep denies it, Star Jones is allegedly REAL PISSED Y’ALL that she didn’t get promoted to the moderator position on The View. Apparently Barbara Walters put her soft-focus foot down because “She hates [Star]. Really can’t stand her.” Ms. Jones should just retire—cause when you’ve pissed off Baba Wawa you’ve pissed off the WORLD. [NY Post]

    if i were her, i’d be especially pissed that they brought on her nemesis and number one sh*t-talker, rosie o’donnell to take over meredith’s spot. i’m not star’s biggest fan, but that does seem kinda wrong for barbara to bring in this lady that’s been dogging star out in the media for quite a while.

    meredith and joy were the only things that made the show enjoyable for me anyway, i’m not sure i can deal with both star and rosie on the same show.

    well since barbara hates star, and barbara is a producer, barabara has every right to do what barbara pleases.

    Barbara knows exactly what Barbara is doing…going for the ratings!

    I will be there to watch and I am hoping that Rosie point blank asks Star:
    1)who the doctor was that did her stomach stapling.
    2)did she save all those plus size clothes for when she balloons back up
    3)does she really think her husband is NOT gay….

    Hey – maybe after Star flees Barbara can replace her with another Survivor veteran.

    I can’t WAIT for the train wreck that will be The View. Rosie and Star going at it five days a week? Now THAT’S entertainment. Heck, it’s enough for me to figure out how to use the ol’ VCR dinosaur and take that b!^@& every day!

    I’m still trying to picture Barbara’s soft focus foot-stamping. Fantastic.

    I with ya on the Grey’s recap. That was one slammin’ ep. (And looks like next week Meredith has to tell He-Shep not to call her a “whore”?! Hilarious.)

    Star’s days are numbered.

    Baba Wawa didn’t say she wanted Star to stay. She just said Star could stay as long as she wanted. It’s a gracious way of saying, “don’t let the door hit your liposuctioned ass on the way out.”

    As long as Elizabeth Varga doesn’t get the job!
