Bill Clinton On The Daily Show

This is from the August 9, 2004 program.
Clinton said a lot of inspirational words in this interview. Namely:
“When you’re a democrat, you win when people think.”
They also talked about the debunking of the debunking of Kerry’s purple hearts, and how it was the exact same disinformation group that attacked McCain in 2000.
Thanks to
Sean Bonner for mirroring these clips for me.

Daily Show On “The Connection”

6 Replies

This is from the June 21, 2004 program.
These should be up by 1pm CA time today. (Uploading now.) I’ve got to run.
Here’s the interview with Stephen F. Hayes, the guy who wrote The Connection, the new book claiming that there’s a connection between 911 and Saddam.
Turns out that his book is based on a single report by none other than Douglas Feith — the Shrub’s Undersecretary of defense, and one of the most notorious members within the Administration known for helping companies he used to work for to cash in on the Iraqi Gold Rush. (See the Bill Moyers Story all about it.

Bill Moyers On The Insider Business Deals Between Shrub Administration Officials And Iraqi Reconstruction Companies
Specifically, between Douglas Feith, the Undersecretary of Defense and several companies (many related to his “former” business associate Marc Zell), including: Zell, Goldberg and Company, Diligence, New Bridge Strategies, Barber, Griffith and Rogers, SAIC (courtesy of current Shrub Administration Official and former SAIC Senior Vice President Ryan Henry), and The Iraqi International Law Group.

Anyway,
Here’s the interview in two parts.

Daily Show Interview With Walter Isaacson About Ben Franklin

Leave a reply

Walter Isaacson is a former chairman and CEO of CNN, the President of the Aspen Institute, and the author of A Benjamin Franklin Reader.
Franklin worshippers such as myself will get a lot of mileage out of this interview. There are some lovely descriptions of my man Ben hanging out and doing cool things up until the day he died.
It made me want to read the book.
This is from the October 22, 2003 program.

Henry Kissinger On The Daily Show

Henry Kissinger was a guest on
The Daily Show Monday night.
Pretty good interview. Henry was actually a funny guy. Jon had fun with him.
Hard to believe this is the same guy who ordered the assasination of a democratically-elected President in Chile in 1973 and secretly bombed Cambodia that same year (and got a Nobel Peace Prize for it).
But hey, life is strange.

Here’s another Daily Show clip on Kissenger from last December.
This is from the October 20, 2003 program.
Note that these videos aren’t using my new format strategy yet as I’m still learning the ropes of it and I have a ton of footage to put up that I generated before learning about it.

Hillary Clinton On The Daily Show

Hillary was great last night. She isn’t optimistic about our future with Arnie though.
She wishes us well because we “have a lot of problems.” (No shit. And we just elected a big fat new problem.)
She skillfully dodges Stewart’s question about whether or not she’ll run for president at the last minute. How about Vice President, Hillary? A Dean/Clinton ticket would sure be a beautiful thing indeed.
This is from the October 8, 2003 program.

Madeline Albright On The Daily Show

4 Replies

This is from the September 16, 2003 program.
This is pretty interesting. Madeline talks about facilitating Middle East Peace talks and how they won’t even talk to each other during meetings. Over the years, I have always had mixed feelings about Madeline and her policies (although I must admit, she’s been quite on-target lately), but she’s always damn fascinating.
