What a fantastic head of hair Wes has! Darn attractive without the Magua look! Well, first I taped the show going into Thanksgiving Day 'cause I wasn't sure which 'end' of the holiday Russ and Wes were going to be on. When I watched the tape for the previous night I went 'uh-oh' right away. Bill Maher is a jerk and I didn't find him very funny, did you? When they announced Ken Hamblin I was startled. Actually, his book 'Pick a Better Country: An Unassuming Colored Guy Speaks His
Mind About America' was pretty good. He's known as the 'Black Rush LImbaugh' so if you keep that in mind you can understand your disappointment. I would rather have had Ted Koppel as moderator and no Ken Hamblin. Just pure Russ, Wes and Irene. Despite the weakness of the program they all looked fantastic, didn't they? Danalee
: I just got through watching the show. So, what did others think? Were you disappointed too? I thought it was so flat, just a few meaningless little remarks, no real discussion, and another commercial whenever I thought they'd actually start saying something. First, I have no idea what that Hamlin guy or what's-his-name was doing in the show, other than interrupting everyone and trying to pick a fight. Did anyone hear if his book had something to do with the Thanksgiving or Indian topic? And then none of them was given the time to even finish their comments. Oh, what a classy discussion that could have been with a little better steering and more time. Just another missed chance. Or am I too negative once again? Curious to hear your comments...
: And I hope everyone had a happy munching day!
