Jimmy Kimmel’s Interview with James Talarico

The interview with the democratic candidate for Texas Senate that allegedly made the FCC's ass so sore they threatened to nuke Jimmy Kimmel from orbit so he showed it on youtube or some shit.

A pretty shit interview really. It was essentially mud slinging and bell ringing and clever ways to capitalize on the mudslinging. There was zero political content.

I'm on the fence as to whether or not this is just a new 'studio wrestling' version of politics. Some bizarre idiocracy-esque drama scripted for primetime TV to make you think they haven't already picked the winner.

We'd all be better off if Gravy had been a better shot.

Fun. I learned a thing or two about Texas politics, too.

Thanks for posting this. I’d been reminding myself to watch it.
