Jon Stewart had Henry Kissinger on the couch last night. Kissinger is hawking his new book
Crisis.
Kissinger claimed that there was no such thing as "organized terrorism" when he was in the administration.
I had to go stand around the corner, out of sight of the TV, for fear that I would throw something.
He mumbled something about tensions in the middle east being cyclic...at which point I started shouting "Yeah! Whenever we have a paranoid and corrupt adminstration that listens to YOU, the Middle East just seems to "flare up"...weird coincidence, huh!?" and "What were those conflicts of interest that prevented you from heading the 9/11 Commission?!"
I don't know how the rest of the interview went. I was shouting "WHY AREN"T YOU IN JAIL YOU EVIL F*CK!"
I am going to tape the 10AM repeat this morning, and make myself watch it, just to see if I can. Then I am going to write to Jon Stewart and suggest he try to get Christopher Hitchens on as a guest -- I think he's promoting a book too.
