| The fall TV season will soon be upon us. With the economy in tatters, our democracy dumped overnight in favor of Marxism and our new foreign policy of kissing up to enemies and throwing old friends under busses, people will need a break. With four dollar gas on the way, no jobs and a looming federal bankruptcy, Americans need fantasy and distraction. What to do, what to do? Hey, let’s check out the new fall lineup! And who knows, maybe a new administration will come in so businesses can afford to advertise again. Here are my contributions:
As much as they’d like to, the nitworks can’t rely on President Obama for ratings. His viewers are starting to tire of him. He’s becoming like the History Channel – too many repeats. Time is soon approaching where they’ll have to get creative again. As a lead in to these shows, they might actually have to put on news people can believe. I don’t think they’re prepared to go THAT far! Do you? |

Dave,
Unfortunately, these are the latest versions of reality TV.
Any suggestions for applying for membership to an anti-govt. community?
nifong
It keeps getting better and better. Now the chosen one is going to create another, yes, another
govt. office to monitor citizens who apply for loans and decide weather they 'qualify'. Isn't
that supposed to be the job of the banks? Oh, my bad. They now own the banks. What was
I thinking!
Dave Weinbaum replies
Nifong,
Big Brother is here and you better like it!
BTW., tune into the Dave Weinbaum show @ 9:05 Friday Morning where I'll be talking
about this, the inspector general Obama illegally fired (and it was the law HE sponsored as a
senator) Barbara Boxer's lecture to a general that made the mistake of calling her 'Ma'am,' and
whatever the callers want to talk about. Libs I'm waiting for you to phone in. It's your
chance to tell the world why I'm full of it. Call 364-0800 if you want to appear on the show.
Dave
Dave Weinbaum replies
OOPS! It's on 99.7 and 1490. If you want to sponsor call Mike @ 364-2525.

OldProf
Dave,
Perhaps the world already knows and doesn't bother to call.
Dave Weinbaum replies
Old,
Perhaps, but if you listened you'd hear a program filled with callers.
Ever hear of promotion and advertising?

I can count on one hand the number of times my tv has been switched on in the last 6
months, and two of those times were for The Masters Tournament. Your programming ideas
deserve some consideration, but they're all centered on the neo-marxists as main characters.
Here's a few of my suggestions (though I'm quite certain that the government-owned
broadcast corporations will never give them air)......
A sit-com: 'Rogaine's Heros'-- Chronicles the lives of a group of middle-aged balding
conservatives and their zany (mis?)adventures as detainees in the re-education gulags.
A soap opera: 'Daze of Our Lives'-- A dramatical production void of mood music and special
visual effects featuring a family who struggles with the question 'Why?', when a government
bureacrat makes an arbitrary decision to void the (private business) franchise agreement that
had been passed(sold) within multiple generations of that family, who had personally
invested untold million$ to keep the franchise viable. Watch as they testify to the wooden
ears of congress, and struggle with them as they have to tell their 60+ dedicated employees
that their government has mandated them out of business.
A game show: 'American in Jeopardy'--
Contestant #1: 'I'll take Neo-Marxism for $1000, Alex'
Alex: 'The answer is, 'From those according to their means, to each according to their need'
BLEOOP!!BLEOOP!!!BLEOOP!!!!
Alex: Contestant #3.......
Contestant #3: 'What was the Marxist principle that Dear Leader paraphrased to Joe the
Plumber?'
Alex: Correct!!! That would be half of that $1000 to you, the other half to the federal
government who will then redistribute half of that to contestant #2 who has yet to expend
any effort this game except to stand there and emit 'greenhouse gasses' but is still in the lead.
And don't forget a three-part mockumentory--'Birth Certificates. What good are they
anyways?'
I don't know about you, but I don't see a 'jump the shark' moment in any of them!!

Dave,
I am a great admirer of your gift for promotion and advertising. You certainly deliver what
your fans are seeking. I wish you could find a little more Bill Moyers, which I have seen you
do, and a little less Jerry Springer, which I have also seen. Your readers tend to shouting,
name calling, and venting when responding to your topics. Part of that is because you pick
really difficult topics which often have no viable solution. I enjoyed your replies re: Israel vs.
Palestine. It occured to me that we fought a vicious war with both Germany and Japan. Our
propaganda against them was vicious, and one can understand why. But now they are trading
partners? I can't for the life of me understand why there hasn't been any substantial progress
re: Israel/Palestine. 'Pride goeth before the Fall', mainly because pride causes the Fall. You are
certainly meeting a need among your fan base.
Donald W. Bales
ABC-is that Arab Boosting Company. Or maybe Acorn Brothers' Company. Or Anti U.S.
Barack's Company. Maybe its name should be changed to Pravda (although I understand that
Pravda is less government controlled than it formerly was). Doesn't Pravda mean truth (and
also justice) in Russian? Under the reds it should have been called "Lies."
Joan (in Salem)
Dave,
I just finished reading your column. Very well done!!! I also read the columns of Charles
Krauthammer and Michelle Malkin. They were also spectacular!! It gives me hope when all
has seemed utterly hopeless since this disasterous election has placed such morally bankrupt
people into positions of power. I listen to your show on Fridays (when possible)
and I wish you much luck as you continue to present a Conservative perspective for our
community.
Dave Weinbaum replies:
Dear Joan,
Thanks for your comments…and thanks for calling the show! We need to fight back and our
congressmen and women need to hear us.
Dave
Joan (in Salem)
Dave,
Just a comment that I would like to make concerning our members of congress "hearing" us.
With A.C.O.R.N in place we may be faced with a "President for life" in Barrak Obama. This
"community organization" will do EVERYTHING possible (including use of Black Panther
thugs) to assure that their candidate remains in place. What really scares me is that America
may very well be experiencing the revolt that we are seeing in Iran . I don't feel that our last
election was legitimate and I don't feel that the next one will be either. And, unfortunately, I
don't see ANY means by which we will be able to stop this. The census is under his control
and if his "brown shirts" (A.C.O.R.N.) decide to "control" the vote so that he may retain
office, I see absolutely no hope for our country. Please reassure me!!
Dave Weinbaum replies:
Joan,
The ONLY time they beat us is when we give up.
Never give up, never let up and you’ll never let yourself down.
Do NOT let them beat you!!!
Don’t make me come out there! :>)

Excellent column! Thanks for the chuckle in these times when the news
is definitely not amusing!!!

Have a great weekend!

Ray,
May I suggest a therapist, Dr. Izzy Moreironic? Actually I liked the Rogaines Heroes one
and obviously identify with it.
Prof, Out of any person I would want to be like Bill Moyers may be the least of them. Like
Popeye said, 'I yam what I yam.' I like being myself...who else would have me?
Dave Weinbaum
President Obama Just used the premise of my column in a correspondents dinner including a
pretend TV show called Leave it to Uigher.
Dave
OldProf
Dave, Congratulations! Apparently you have arrived on the National scene.
Gail Kaplan
Dave,
Very good article. Your ideas for the shows are brilliant. I will forward it on to all of my
conservative family and friends.
Dave Weinbaum replies:
Thanks much, Gail.
Carl Cesar
Nice lineup, Dave!
How about . . . ?
Saudi HillyBillies -- The Clintons strike it rich, convert, and move
into a wing of the royal palace in Riyadh.
Dave Weinbaum replies:
Carl,
Maybe you've got a replacement for when the "Blame the Bushes" show cancels.
BTW., during last nights speech to entertainers and correspondents, Obama
copied my theme, and even used the "Leave it to Uigher" line.
Mike Thompson
Good stuff Dave!!
gmcman
But Dave, you aren't giving enough credit to the White House Press Secretary, who has
completely absconded with Biden's title as 'the gift that keeps on giving'. There are still a few
out there who complain that Palin sounded a bit 'air-headed' in a couple of interviews .... this
guy, Obama's 'mouthpiece', blows her outta the water!
Yep, when the ratings season begins to wind down, this guy's gonna still be running strong,
providing more laughs than Letterman, Obrien and all the others put together!
And he seems SO modest!
Dave Weinbaum replies:
Gmc,
Gibbs is glib, while Biden is brash in his idiocy.
The first show that's cancelled, I'll work Gibbs in. But I don't see him in a starring role.
