Elizabeth Olsen is the younger sister of Mary Kate and Ashley of Full House and tabloid fame. While it would be interesting if she chatted about her role as the Scarlet Witch in the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron, that movie is in early pre-production for a 2015 release. Instead she will talk about Oldboy, due to be released next week.
I was surprised to see Steve McQueen listed as a guest because he's been dead for 33 years. Well, it's not that one.
This one is the director of 12 Years a Slave a film that led Richard Cohen who hasn't been a liberal for longer than that other Steve McQueen has been dead and has recently reminded everyone who pays attention he's a racist too that slavery was bad.
Cohen has other reprehensible opinions so this should come as no surprise, but don't let that fool you- he's also an idiot.
The evidence Colin Powell presented to the United Nations — some of it circumstantial, some of it absolutely bone-chilling in its detail — had to prove to anyone that Iraq not only hasn't accounted for its weapons of mass destruction but without a doubt still retains them. Only a fool — or possibly a Frenchman — could conclude otherwise.
As is customary on Mondays (and every other day for that matter) I wish to extend the offer for some lucky volunteers to try their hand at the wheel. The rest of the week looks something like this-
The Daily Show
* Tuesday 11/19: Bill Cosby
* Wednesday 11/20: Jennifer Lawrence
* Thursday 11/21: Tom Brokaw
The Colbert Report
* Tuesday 11/19: Rick Santorum
* Wednesday 11/20: M.I.A.
* Thursday 11/21: J.J. Abrams
If you see a guest whom you particularly admire (or loath) just let me know either below or in a private message. I don't generally start preparing these before 8 pm so if you can get to me before that it saves me some writing time.
