God it was cool.

I'm pretty upset about the yanking of the shows. I have to wonder if it's conservatives angry about having the truth broadcast. And when I think of it, the two shows really belong on a venue that is more news oriented than comedy. After all, they have more truth to them than many of the real bullshit new shows on the air today.
