Shame

That's the only possible explanation for NBC's failure to post today's Meet the Press transcript.

And you thought James Guckert was unconvincing as a straight man.

Nevertheless, Pumpkinhead's marching orders were received and executed to the letter.

Update (5/9): I agree with the Good Kaus about Rep. Pelosi's performance. If you're going to appear with Pumpkinhead, you need to know his bag of tricks and prepare accordingly. (Which is not to say I could do better, but I'm not trying to become Speaker of the House.) Second Update: And with the Good Somerby too.
