Video: The weakest link
posted at 8:51 am on March 1, 2007 by Allahpundit
There’s only one solid laugh line, but the premise is strong enough to sustain it for two minutes.
How much must the British hate Blair right now to have him lose to Bush in a battle of wits?

I thought the whole thing was pretty funny… however I think there is a A LOT more material there to work with, and they could have made something REALLY out of this.

Yawn. Slow news day again. I think I’ll go to the dentist and get my teeth drilled.

Agreed. I didn’t think it was that great. Or, maybe I just haven’t had enough coffee yet…

mildly interesting, but RW’s correct, they could’ve done a lot more with it.

What was the solid laugh line?

That could have been a lot funnier.

It would be nice to have a greater ratio of videos dealing with the war on terror.

OT: Allah, Ace said it was alright to call you a “homo”. I would never call you a “homo”. Are you going to take that standing up (or as Ace would suggest in some other comprimising bodily position)?
Don’t shoot the messenger. I just thought you should know.

Some of the Brits are infected with BDS also, only thing they call it by a different name.

Just a guess, but I’d have to say it was Bush’s plan for the 8,500 British Pounds (training Iraqi judges).
I thought it was damned funny, anyway.

Were the Brits this witty while they were fighting off the Nazi threat? I guess Jihad is more appealing to their refined senses than the Third Reich?

I enjoyed it for the editing alone. I just wanna know how long they sat scanning transcripts.

“csdeven,”
I already took my six year old son to the dentist to have his teeth drilled, so, indirectly, I’ve already done that, or something quite similar.
By the way, the dentist office we take our children to is a husband and wife dental team, both are dentists, working as family dentists. The wife is the pediatric dentist and she is wonderful, our kids love her and they love going to the dentist with me and their siblings when any one of them have an appointment of any kind, be it the six month examination and cleaning, or a repair. The building is a beautiful, old Victorian home converted into the dentist office, examination rooms, a waiting room, toys for the kids, the works!
But I digress.
I laughed while viewing the Prime Minister and the US President playing “The Weakest Link.” My nine year old daughter wanted me to play it for her from beginning to end as well.
Maybe someone can take Bruce Lee from Enter the Dragon and Way of the Dragon, AKA “Return of the Dragon,” and create a short video clip in which he takes on Zawarhiri, bin Laden, Al Gore, Pelosi, Kerry, Kennedy, Cindy Sheehan, and so on, dispatching them with his Jeet Kune Do – the Way of the Intercepting Fist.
I have no doubt that such a video clip would be fun to watch.
