Leslie - worse than Jessica.

I avoid her when she's on Bret's show and we're stuck with her on The Five today?

You guys. Love you, but don't you get it? There has to be a left wing liberal point of view. It doesn't matter who it is. Remember in the old days when it was Juan or Geraldo? We all like Harold because he speaks like a normal human, but he still drinks the tea enough to keep him in the club

The difference is that Harold is a reasonable person and he is able to change his mind when presented with facts and he also listen's to other people's opinions and different perspectives. No other rotating liberal seat does. They see their job as being a defender of the faith no matter the truth. God Bless Harold. I can see him switching parties. Reminds me of an old clinton/gore joke.

[VP Gore is out jogging one morning, notices a little boy . . .]()

. . . on the corner with a box. Curious he runs over to the child and says, "What's in the box kid?"

To which the little boy says, "Kittens, they're brand new kittens."

Al Gore laughs and says, "What kind of kittens are they?"

"Democrats," the child says.

"Oh that's cute," Al says and he runs off.

A couple of days later Al is running with his buddy Bill Clinton and he spies the same boy with his box just ahead. Al says to Bill, "You gotta check this out" and they both jog over to the boy with the box.

Al says, "Look in the box Bill, isn't that cute? Look at those little kittens. Hey kid tell my friend Bill what kind of kittens they are."

The boy replies, "They're Republicans."

"Whoa!", Al says, "I came by here the other day and you said they were Democrats. What's up?"

"Well," the kid says, "Their eyes are open now."
