  • the whole premise of a guy who wants to buy a business, but wont because he would get rich and have to pay higher taxes is absurd.

    a lot of the republican faithful just dont seem to have working bullshit detectors.

  • What a terrible campaign.. No exchange of ideas whatsoever.. Just sound bites targeting a very intellectually limited audience. Plumbing heroes, working mom's, loving Grandma.. Thanks John Cleese to bring humor and observation into this media circus..

  • I was the deciding vote. BTW, why would ANYONE dislike this vid? A modern journalist stalwart and a comedic legend, what id there to dislike if you have a brain???

  • Not too many people know that Cleese worked for Newsweek in the mid-1960s. Kudos to Mr. Olbermann for this factoid.

  • I am a huge fan of yours Mr. Cleese. I am glad that you are doing well.

  • I am a huge fan of yours Mr. Cleese! I am glad you are doing well.

  • wrong! the died for the right for people to vote for WHOEVER they want. See? I can use caps lock too :)

  • That was one of the most beautiful and amusing poems ever.

  • I don't find Keith funny and sometimes comes of as silly or mildly sad. But he shows smartness in his interviews and would be better if he stops trying to be funny.

    John Cleese! What can I say about him that hasn't already been said

  • A Fawlty Towers reference? Win! Cleese's poem was truly lovely. Happy birthday John Cleese!

  • GOOD PEOPLE DIDNT FIGHT AND DIE FOR YOU TO VOTE FOR THAT VACUUS AIRHEAD lA PALINTHEARSE !
