Another look at "The Nightly Show" with Larry Wilmore

After its first week, I gave The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore a B+ grade.

For fans of "The Daily Show," be sure to check out McConnelling.org

For those whom religious watch The Daily Show  like I do and caught last Thursday night's show when Jon Stewart introduced the world to "McConnelling," I'd highly recommend checking out this site -http://www.mcconnelling.org/. On it, you can rearrange certain Mitch McConnell photos, add a song via YouTube, and create your own hilarious Mitch McConnell campaign ad, which you can then share on Facebook and/or Twitter. To this point, I've only created one such ad, which I've entitled, "Mitch Is Too Sexy," and can be viewed here - http://www.mcconnelling.org/view?_id=5328c9a0d356c920387c0e19 Enjoy the new site and be sure to share the extra funny ones! I have a hunch when Stewart returns from break next Monday, he's going to have a good time showcasing a few of the better videos.
