Some sadistic producer has posted this distressing video, from last night's Radio and Television Correspondents' dinner in Washington, D.C., on the CBSNews.com homepage. Thanks for ruining my morning, guys.

MC Rove Drops It Like It's Hot

And in sad news for those of us who are home at 2:00 PM on a Tuesday, Fred Thompson's possible run for the White House might mean that we'll be deprived of Law & Order reruns, thanks to equal time laws. As the Washington Post notes, "[d]uring the 2003 gubernatorial race in California, television stations dropped all Arnold Schwarzenegger movies out of a real fear that showing them would require them to give countless hours of free airtime to all 134 other candidates for governor."

Oh, and about that dinner? At one point, "Brian Wiliams burped the 'Battle Hymn of the Republic.'" Bet you wish you were there!
