Hello, hello and welcome once again to another edition of your Sunday morning liveblog of the political chat shows, post-Inaugural edition. Hopefully, everyone enjoyed the pomp and circumstance of last week. I particularly enjoyed that there were just enough people in Washington to make the occasion a merry celebration of the political system but not SO MANY people that everything became a baffling ordeal of epic proportions. So good on everyone, especially the people in the parades, I already kind of miss the bunting.
But, now all of that is over and it's time to get back to the droning grind of your political discourse. Today, the shows have invited Paul "Kid Haircut" Ryan on and John McCain, leaving me to have to come to grips with the age-old conundrum: which of these tiresome, cliche-ridden, skin-sacks do I avoid, to keep my soul from being singed? (Obviously, it's John McCain -- who at this point exists only to demonstrate just how many people are smart enough to not come on these shows. Speaking of, Hillary Clinton dissed the Sunday shows pretty hard in her Congressional testimony! It was a refreshing change of pace to hear someone properly place these things in the intellectual caste system...but then I realized that I will probably be watching them until the end of my life.
Not so funny anymore.
