Fred Schneider Can Even Make The Downfall Of The American Moment Sound Like A Party [Videodrone]
Published 6/3/2008 by Maura Johnston at Idolator
Last night on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart enlisted the B-52's Fred Schneider to turn snippets of Scott McLellan's audiobook version of What Happened—in which the former White House press secretary makes the shocking claim that the current U.S. president might be something of a propagandist (I know, right?)—into a party at the Love Shack. Schneider looks half-mortified to be there, perhaps because he's without his foils Kate Pierson and Cindy Wilson, or perhaps because he knows, deep in his heart, that "Rock Lobster" would have been a much more appropriate choice for the backing music. ("Down, down...") [The Daily ...

OK, we try not to get too political around here. But we do like to rock. And this clip from "The Daily Show" is priceless - at least the last 30 seconds are. Jon Stewart is talking about that bloviating weasel Scott McClelland, whose new book about what really happened when he was White House spokesman has people on both sides of the ideological coin pissed off at him.
