Dave Herman as Michael Bolton is one of my favorite performances ever.

David O. Russell is probably my favorite filmmaker. He's not only a great director, but he's also a great writer.
Adam McKay

Obamacare is a private mandate that will drive billions to the insurance industry, much like the auto insurance mandate. Hardly socialism. In fact, it was a Republican plan to begin with.

Image
The idea of 24-hour news, if you really step back, is pretty insane. Just even saying '24-hour news' almost has satire laced in it.
