Bill Geist: Animals Running for Mayor in Rabbit Hash, Kentucky Airdate 11-02-08. CBS's offbeat correspondent Bill Geist goes to Rabbit Hash, Kentucky, where 9 dogs, one three-legged dog, a feline & a lovable donkey are campaigning for mayor of this small town. (Hey, I like donkeys. Don't you?) It's a campaign where votes are literally bought & paid for, all for charity to the Historical Society. Well, at least all the candidates are thoroughly vetted. (More than you can say for Sarah Palin!) CBS' Washington editor Bob Schieffer even weighs in on the race. You can even vote online at rabbithashusa.com!

CBS SUNDAY MORNING-Bill O'Reilly Bloviates Airdate: 11-2-08: "Bloviation, O'Reilly be thy name." Thus begins In particular, note at the start how Bill claims that he wouldn't care if anyone didn't watch his TV show, listen to his radio program, or read his books. Gee, you don't care if nobody watches your show?! Then why is it that every night this past week, he's alleged a conspiracy by the Nielsen ratings company against the "O'Reilly Factor"? Does this officially make Bill-O paranoid schizophrenic?! I'm hoping for this to make tomorrow's "Worst Person in the World" segment on "Countdown". And yes, I am twisting the metaphorical dagger in O'Reilly's loofahed back by using Keith Olbermann's picture on the video. :) Tags: Keith Olbermann Worst Person in the World Bill Orally O'Reilly Faux News Fox Noise MSNBC |

Hilarious Review of "Rolling Stones: Shine a Light" CBS Sunday Morning's movie reviewer David Edelstein does a review of the Rolling Stones' new concert film "Shine a Light", directed by Martin Scorsese.
