Mo Rocca: Today's Greatest Political Satirist
Ah, the Democratic National Convention! If you managed to get past all the crazy white people dancing badly, the patriotic rockin' performances (I'm talkin' you John Mellencamp!), Ben Affleck, and the endless shots of Kerry's frightfully overrated daughters - you would've caught a few decent speeches by Bill Clinton, Barack Osama (Colin Powell, watch yo' back), the Reverend Al Sharpton, John Edwards and numerous others.
Except, of course, if you were watching the Fox News Channel, which thought it was more important to show their own talking heads blabbing instead of actual convention events.
If you happen to have a life and missed these speeches, CNN does a great job of recapping them via "Pundits Scorecards." Get past all the important people and you'll find hilarious commentary by the brilliant Mo Rocca. From his former days on The Daily Show with John Stewart to his present work on Bravo, Court TV, VH1 and numerous other channels, this man never fails to bring laughter to otherwise dry subjects. His ability to poke fun at people who take themselves too seriously, by joining their game, is truly unique and refreshing. Bring on more Mo!
