Reader Tips

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, welcome to SDA Late Nite Radio. You don’t know what a great thrill it is for you to hear me again. Personally, tell you the truth, I’m not too impressed. I’ve heard all these jokes before. Anyway, tonight, for your delectation and pursuant to our Wednesday night comedy show, here is Mr. Jackie Mason performing at The Hollywood Palace in 1966 (4:31).

Ladies and gentlemen, I sincerely hope that I enjoyed my part of tonight’s show. If you enjoyed it too, don’t be ashamed to tell me. However if you did not, I don’t want to hear about it, I’ve got my own troubles. It’s not my business, and besides, I’m sick and tired of hearing the same thing after every show.

Ladies and gentlemen, I don’t know if I’ll every hear you again, but I sincerely hope you’ll hear me again, because that means I’ll still be working. Thank you, and good night.

Your Reader Tips are, as always, welcome in the comments.

  1. For those looking for Patterico’s web site that has been taken over by a squatter, here’s his (temporary) new site:
    http://70.32.75.225/
    (Just cut and paste it as is, it doesn’t need a www in front or anything.)

  2. Ya know Vit. If Jackie was doing that schtick now,he’d be hauled in front of some HRC so fast,he wouldn’t have time to put the saucer on his head. Do Jews sue Jews?Or call them hate-mongers? *sigh*. When you can’t make fun of even yourself anymore,what’s left.

  3. whither journalistic integrity and objectivity:
    3w.liveleak.com/view?i=d9b_1224728546
    perhaps that should be ‘wither’

  4. “Why don’t you just give me a hundred grand, and we’ll call the whole thing off.”
    Currently watching ‘Chicago 10’ on PBS and I Don’t Get It. Maybe I need to be stoned or a yippie to appreciate the film.

  5. I remember the last show Mason did on ed sullivan. I didn’t know at the time what the back stage action was but it seemed a little strained and surreal to see Mason obviously intense about something. he had been blackballed by sullivan.
    and THEN, oh boy, a looooong time after he came out with his revival show. utter genius with his ‘if Im looking for myself and find me, how will I know its me?’ angle.

  6. GLENN BECK What happened to him on CNN. He is off the air, anyone know what happened?

  7. On the other side of the coin; cbc newsworld did a bit tonight on a recycling scam that involved ‘green’ companies collecting your old electronics(computers,etc.)and selling them to chinese companies that used the poor to dismantle them in less than healthy ways… Maybe mothercorp has seen the writing on the wall,and noticed the ink was blue.Unfortunately,sycophant suck-ups are useless,no matter who they serve. Time for the big broom.

  8. Jackie Mason on Obama’s fraud:
    Close to 400,000 hits and only 4 stars. Must be affecting a lot of Liberal victims of disambiguation.

  9. Valéry (1871 – 1945) said, “An attitude of permanent indignation signifies great mental poverty. Politics compels its votaries to take that line and you can see their minds growing more impoverished every day, from one burst of righteous indignation to the next.”
    Sometimes Jackie Mason is just Jackie Mason, like he was back there in ’66.
    Can’t the great comedian simply be celebrated without bursts of righteous indignation?
    Feh.

    LONDON — London buses have God on their side — but not for long, if atheists have their way.
    The sides of some of London’s red buses will soon carry ads asserting there is “probably no God,” as nonbelievers fight what they say is the preferential treatment given to religion in British society.”

  13. At least one great statesman is speaking truth:
    “The central problem that we now face is Islamic extremism, for which the only real solution is to arrest it and to demonstrate its incapacity to achieve its objectives. Otherwise, the momentum is going to become stronger and stronger.”

  14. (Via SWJ) Jason Motlagh, Reform of Pakistan’s spy agency crucial
    The fate of the U.S.-led war in Afghanistan and of stability in this neighboring country may depend to a great extent on efforts to reform Pakistan’s controversial spy agency, known in the past for “hunting with the hounds and running with the hares.”
    U.S. officials have long criticized Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) for a dual policy of cracking down on Islamist militancy while supporting militant groups in Afghanistan and Kashmir and allowing al Qaeda and the Taliban to maintain sanctuaries in tribal areas along the Afghan-Pakistani border…

  15. (Via SWJ) Karen DeYoung, Pakistan Will Give Arms to Tribal Militias
    Pakistan plans to arm tens of thousands of anti-Taliban tribal fighters in its western border region in hopes — shared by the U.S. military — that the nascent militias can replicate the tribal “Awakening” movement that proved decisive in the battle against al-Qaeda in Iraq…
    Much distrust also remains on the U.S. side, particularly within intelligence agencies that have long been suspicious of ties between the Pakistani intelligence service and the Taliban. The CIA has increased its operations against resurgent extremist forces in the FATA, with at least 11 missile attacks launched by Predator unmanned aircraft against al-Qaeda and Taliban targets in August and September, compared with six in the previous eight months…
    New ISI chief Lt. Gen. Ahmed Shuja Pasha will arrive in Washington this weekend for meetings with CIA head Michael V. Hayden…

  16. As they have for many months, Daniel Pipes’s articles on Obama’s ties to Islam continue to lead his lists of most read and most mailed articles. Now this offering:
    Daniel Pipes, Obama Would Fail Security Clearance
    Instead, then, let us review a related subject – Obama’s connections and even indebtedness, throughout his career, to extremist Islam. Specifically, he has longstanding, if indirect ties to two institutions, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), listed by the U.S. government in 2007 as an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas-funding trial; and the Nation of Islam (NoI), condemned by the Anti-Defamation League for its “consistent record of racism and anti-Semitism.”

  18. A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing is Still a Wolf
    Norman Thomas, a founder of the A.C.L.U. once said:
    “The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”
    How true in Canada too – don’t you agree.
    Read the whole article with Obama, Dion and our own socialists, the Liberals in mind. Remember, Dion was a student of Marxism. Scary stuff.

  19. Pew’s tales of the blindingly obvious (plus appearances by Joe the Plumber, ACORN, and the economy):
    Most Voters Say News Media Wants Obama to Win
    Voters overwhelmingly believe that the media wants Barack Obama to win the presidential election. By a margin of 70%-9%, Americans say most journalists want to see Obama, not John McCain, win on Nov. 4. Another 8% say journalists don’t favor either candidate, and 13% say they don’t know which candidate most reporters support.
    In recent presidential campaigns, voters repeatedly have said they thought journalists favored the Democratic candidate over the Republican. But this year’s margin is particularly wide…

  20. I too was disappointed but not shocked to see that Glenn Beck is gone from CNN Headline News.
    Now Lou Dobbs is on in that slot with a retread program of some kind with the same old tired talking heads you see on regular CNN. Candy (Miss Piggy) Crowley, Ed Rollins, David Guergin, Dana (rexia) Bash…barf.
    I’m heading straight for the cable company on Saturday to get the converter or whatever I need to get Fox News so I can watch Glenn Beck and even moreso Bill O’Reilly.

  21. Gerald J. Russello, Russell Kirk & Postmodern Conservatism
    This week marks the ninetieth anniversary of the birth of Russell Kirk. Kirk, who died in 1994, is best remembered for his role in helping to create the postwar conservative movement in America. His groundbreaking work, The Conservative Mind, received national attention when it was published in 1953, upsetting the settled elite consensus (as articulated most famously by Lionel Trilling) that liberalism was the only intellectual tradition in America…
    The problem Kirk faced, along with most conservatives, was that the Enlightenment, with its universalizing equality, secularism, and blinkered rationality, was already destroying traditional Western culture. How can a tradition be preserved if it is already dissolving into what theorist Zygmunt Bauman called “liquid modernity?”
    Kirk’s answer was twofold…

  22. Citoyen Dionky brays and brays.
    What do these words mean, if anything? “I will do everything in the coming years and months to prepare the ground for my successor”.
    Is Dionky delusional?
    Has Dionky gone ’round the bend? Does Dionky think he’s Napoleon?
    Is Dionky gonna crown himself L’Empereur as his countryman Napoleon did?
    The ground, of course, is the PET Cemetery.

  23. Dr. Andrew Bostom, Hitler and Jihad, Parts 1-3
    Such concordance between Nazism and jihadism reflects an historical continuum evident since the advent of the Nazi movement. This nexus was already apparent in Hitler’s own observations from 1926, elaborated upon over the following decades by both the Nazi leader, and other key Nazi officials, and ideologues. Not surprisingly, there are two predominant, recurring themes in this discourse: jihad as total war, and the annihilationist jihad against the Jews…

    “AP to cut member fees by $9 million, review structure
    CHICAGO (MarketWatch) — The Associated Press said Thursday that it would cut assessments paid by its member newspapers by another $9 million in 2009, on the heels of $21 million in fee reductions announced earlier this year. The AP, following its quarterly meeting in New York, also said it would complete a review of its pricing and governance structure — including a two-year notice required of papers who intend to leave the cooperative — by mid-2009. The move comes after last week’s news that Tribune Co., owner of the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, Newsday and other major metropolitan dailies, gave AP notice that it might cancel AP services in 2010. During a worldwide economic downturn that has rattled an already-struggling newspaper industry, AP Chief Executive Tom Curley commented that the organization is aware of “the pain and the challenges of our members,” and is trying to “address these concerns.””

  28. US missile attack kills nine in Pakistan
    The target of the strike was thought to have been the militant network overseen by Jalaluddin Haqqani, a veteran of the US-backed mujahideen who fought the Russians when they occupied Afghanistan in the 1980s and who is a friend of Osama bin Laden…
    Analysts suggested that it was likely that the US drone’s main target was Siraj Haqqani, a son of Jalaluddin who is regarded as one of the deadliest commanders in the region. Bill Roggio, of the Long War Journal website, said: “[Siraj Haqqani] is believed to be the mastermind of the most deadly attacks inside Afghanistan as well as the senior military commander in eastern Afghanistan . . . Siraj is believed to be dangerous not only for his connections with the Afghan Taleban, but with al-Qaeda’s central leadership, which extends all the way to Osama bin Laden.”
