Three More BEEutiful Buzzes

I have three video clips from Samantha Bee to share.

SamanthaBee

Last night on her show Full Frontal, Samantha Bee decided to take a closer look at the winners and losers of the GOP race for the White House.

She began with John Kasich, whose numbers effectively shut him out of any real shot for the presidency, but whose delusional optimism has kept him in the race. After a clip of Kasich saying he’s “studying how Lincoln got there,” and mistakenly stating that Abe occupied fourth place, Bee decided to correct the error.

“Actually, Lincoln was second,” Bee began. “But, yes, you’re in fourth place – out of three!Behind the ghost of Marco Rubio.”,,,

Sam does a wonderful job of trashing republicans.

In the next clips she discusses Harriet Tubman replacing Andrew Jackson on the front of the $20 bill.

Let’s put Sam  on the $7 bill!

On a more serious note, Sam interviews a former detainee of the GOP Gitmo Gulag,

All the torture he endured was perpetrated by Texas Torquemada, ChickenHawk Cheney and other Bush Reich war criminals.  All still need to be prosecuted, convicted and imprisoned.

  1. #1. Wonder Twins Power–"Activate!!!" 😉

    #2. This is great news! I'm so ready for this. Should have happened sooner. Carson is an ID to the inth.

    #3. Yes, I agree with you, Tom. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening in the near future. GITMO needs to be closed. Period.

    Sam Bee is the best, and Colbert too. Love their shows.

    Thanks, Tom for post.

  2. Bees are welcome, including in my garden.

    There is a case in Spokane suing the psychologists from Gitmo proceeding and thus far no claims of national security, etc.

  3. Election – It still isn't over.

    $20 – Well, isn't this special.  Just one point – that dude sayibg two twentieth century Democrats were on currency but no Republicans – well, I guess Eisenhower really IS chopped liver to today's party.

    Gitmo – I have never been able to grasp what part of "innocent" they don't understand.  I guess it all goes along  with living in a fact-free bubble.  That makes things very comfortable, apparently – but not very practical.

    • Well, as for "fact free," it was St. Reagan who said that facts were simply "inconveniences!"

  4. Kasich is starting to look like an only slightly smarter Dr.Ben, given his remakable mastery of facts, historic and otherwise.

    All the torture he endured was perpetrated by Texas Torquemada, ChickenHawk Cheney and other Bush Reich war criminals.  All still need to be prosecuted, convicted and imprisoned.  YOU BET'CHA! as Alaska's main hockey mommy might say.

    The Tubman $20 is going to be some kind of cultural litmus test!

     

  5. Dang. Still trying to get something posted. Tornadoes and high winds all over the place! 

    Put Sam Bee on the $100 bill! Can you imagine? Asking someone "Do ya have a Bee to loan me?"! I don't know. The winds are going 107 mph just 10 miles from us. 

    Keep safe EVERYONE! 

  6. I really like Samantha Bee!  She did skewer Kasitch, but that is not hard to do at this point.    Apparently, not everyone is happy about Harriet Tubman being put on the twenty dollar bill, I fail to understand why.  Love the bit about a black woman finally making a man sit in the back.

    Gitmo is and has always been a disgrace to our country.  President Obama promised he would close it if elected.  We all see how well that went.  No one should still be there.  If they are innocent, as apparently, many of them are, they should be immediately released.  The others should be given a trial, and if guilty as ordered by the court, sent to prison.

  7. Gitmo — Obama swore to close it but could not because the obstructionist Republican dominated Congress passed laws that initially tied his hands.  Could Obama have moved faster on alternate plans?  Probably, but we don't know what was going on behind the scenes.  There is no confusion in my mind, Crawford Caligula, Chickenhawk Cheney, and their band of criminals should be charged with war grimes, thrown in prison, and the keys lost!

    Harriet Tubman, a most excellent choice for the $20.  Love her comment about Tubman sending a white male to the back.  I'll bet this has the Klan all in a dither!

    Kasich, Cruz and Drumpf — the 3 Republican stooges who hopefully will bring down that house of cards called the Republican party!

    Bee sure does have a way with words!

  8. Kasich, Cruz & Drumf: Bee really eviscerated the GOP people in this segment. Awesome! The GOP deserves to be trashed. I'm looking forward to the open-carry people to pull out their guns and start shooting up the GOP convention in gun-happy, quick-draw Cleveland. Maybe more 6 million dollars pay-out will happen afterwards. lol. 

    Twenty-Dollar Bill: Andrew Jackson was a murderer and genocidal maniac, thug  and should have been taken off and replaced by a more honorable person decades ago. A "litmus" test for the people in US should prove to become an interesting topic of "defacement" of the twenty-dollar bill especially in the South. Tubman is an excellent choice for the twenty dollar bill. 

    Former Gitmo Detainee Murat Kuraz: I liked and laughed at the part where he says that Samantha "talks very fast". Yup, she does, lol. Can you imagine being asked the same 4 questions, over and over, for five years and tortured as well… Obama really does want to close Gitmo but the obstructionist GOP dominated Congress GOP have held him up and do nothing to help close Gitmo. GOP wants to keep it open especially "load it [Gitmo] up" Drumpf, Lyin' Ryan, Cottonmouth Tom Cotton. Close Gitmo and turn the buildings and land over and into a marine research facility. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and all related members of Bushy's administration need to be taken to the Hague and tried as war criminals and human rights violators.

  9. Thanks for the three Buzzes from the Bee, TomCat. She's sharp and witty, even when taking on such a serious subject as Gitmo – I can't think of the primary candidates or the whole discussion on having a black women replace Jackson on the $20 bill in the same terms – and interviewing an innocent victim of torture by Americans. I congratulate Samantha on bringing this international embarrassment to our attention again, it got snowed under by the international embarrassment of the Republican primaries.

  10. could we load Guantanomo up with the "bad dudes" like tRump Drumpf, Ryan, Cotton and other Chicken-Hawks???

  11. Thanks all.  Exhausted hugs!
