Guess that makes me Number Two. I've been called worse! Working on getting the Dennis Miller audio... P.S. Exurban Jon has the Miller audio. "Jim Treacher. Don't know who he is. My new hero." Holy crap. Making Dennis Miller laugh is even cooler than I would've imagined. P.P.S.

(Except for item #2, which was a little too rough for radio.) If anybody puts up the audio, let me know and I'll post it. Thanks, Dennis! As long as you're never going back on the Late Show again anyway, glad I could help. P.S. A while back, I was told that Hannity read my Partial List of Gwen Ifill's Questions for the Vice Presidential Debate on the air but didn't give me credit for it.

The band's former frontman and now [Australian] Environment Minister, Peter Garrett, helped write new lyrics to "Beds Are Burning," as part of the celebrity-led initiative. It is driven by the former UN secretary general, Kofi Annan, who heads the Global Humanitarian Forum in Geneva. The forum has assembled 55 singers, actors and models to rerecord protest songs with the aim of cutting carbon emissions. Among them are British... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002124.html http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002123.html As successful as the 9/12 Washington Tea Party was, it still left us with some questions: Who were those wonderful czars? Where did they come from? And most importantly, do they mind if we take some more pictures? Thanks to the Green Czar (AKA Floridajayhawk on Twitter), we now know a little more about these cheerful, good-natured lovers of liberty and what they're trying to get off their chests. He was nice enough to answer a few questions via e-mail: Greetings, Green Czar! So, who are you fine folks? We live in South Florida. Boob Czar lives in a state... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002122.html ACORN: Another Corrupt Office Revealed Now.

If they can make Obama Girl famous, I see no reason we shouldn't do the same for the Boob Czar: In a move that is being praised by experts, it was announced today that the Boob Czar will also be serving as the Pogo Stick Czar. P.S. More pics here. Looks like maybe they're a package deal? The three "czars," I mean. Good advertising, southfloridateaparty.org. P.P.S.

If the mainstream media didn't prove its own irrelevance during the Rielle Hunter scandal, this clinches it. An advisor to the President of the United States, a man in charge of tens of billions in taxpayer funds, is resigning because of a scandal that has not been covered by most news outlets.
