Hint. It’s not Al Franken.
Check out this piece at Bloomberg by Ann Woolner about Norm “The Cold Stove” Coleman’s pathetic, desperate legal moves — he’s doing exactly the things Republicans have been blasting for months.
BTW, Bloomberg is not exactly a lefty site.
Much as I enjoy the NYTimes’ catty but clever Maureen Dowd (please remind me never get on her bad side), the Times’ funniest columnist lately day is unquestionably Gail Collins, a rising star at the Grey Lady.

SF Gate’s Joe Garofoli has a funny piece this mornng about Boss Limbaugh trying to explain “teabagging” to his unglued adherents — and also, how MSNBC’s Keith Olberman deftly used the metaphor to carve up Fox Noise.
Since my piece on Rush Limbaugh and his free/barter deal just hit most-viewed on Huffington Post, a bit of what’s coming up. More of this soon.
One comment I’ve been seeing a lot in the 1000 or so my blog has generated (I’m still amazed) is this phrase from Dittoheads: “If the show weren’t popular, stations [...]
In the HuffPost’s Blogger Index…
