Leading off this week's bobblehead shows is FIRST LADY LAURA BUSH (at least for the next seven weeks) on Meet the Tom, followed by TED TURNER. Face the Bob has their annual book show with BOB WOODWARD, FAREED ZAKARIA and JANE MAYER. Check out Jane on Democracy Now! The Dark Side: Jane Mayer on the Inside Story of How the War on Terror Turned Into a War on American Ideals from July 18, 2008 for the full hour. This Snuffagupolis spends the hour discussing this week's attacks in India with JACK REED, RICHARD LUGAR and Pakistan's US Ambassador HUSAIN HAQQANI. U-boat Captain Blitzer is all over the road, from Detriot's woes to The Transition and India, featuring the Tag Team of ED ROLLINS & JAMES CARVILLE. Speaking of Rollins, how about HENRY ROLLINS on Ring of Fire Radio talking about corporate media! Our crew recommends saving a special brick for Ole Laura. She's rumored to be going back to her old job as librarian at the BU$H Prezidential Lie-brary haha! The Brick TeeVee crew snuck outta Gramma's with a load of leftovers, including cheescake and wine! (hic). Nothing better than a turkey-n-stuffing omlette topped with cranberry sauce and a side of mashed potatoes and peas on the Sunday Morning after Thanksgiving! More tryptophan? Bring it on!

The Economy & The Bailouts We've been digging through Naomi Klein's SHOCK DOCTRINE and recently finished Chapter 12: The Capitalist ID. There we found this tidbit:

    [John] Williamson casually pointed out that this raised some intriguing questions: (from a meeting held on January 13, 1993 Washington DC) "One will have to ask whether it could conceivably make sense to think of deliberately provoking a crisis so as to remove the political logjam to reform. For example, it has sometimes been suggested in Brazil that it would be worthwhile stoking up a hyperinflation so as to scare everyone into accepting those changes ... Presumably no one with historical foresight would have advocated in the mid-1930s that Germany or Japan go to war in order to get the benefits of the supergrowth that followed their defeat. But could a lesser crisis have served the same function? Is it possible to conceive of a pseudo-crisis that could serve the same positive function without the cost of a real crisis?" Williamson's remarks represented a major leap forward for the shock doctrine. In a room filled with enough finance ministers and central bank chiefs to hold a major trade summit, the idea of actively creating a serious crisis so that the shock therapy could be pushed through was now being openly discussed.
So, we find it intriguing that perhaps this economic "crisis" may have been all part of a Shock Doctrine Plan homespun for the good ole USA by the BCF and their banking cronies. All the signs are there, complete with the unaccountability built right in to the bail-out bill and a MASSIVE transfer of wealth to the very top. As Klein repeatedly points out, democracy is a DIRECT THREAT to unrestricted Free Market SHOCK "Therapy" and the gloves have come off. Visit Naomi Klein's The Shock Doctrine on-line for more.

With the election now in the rear view mirror now comes the business of governing. Team Obama is busy putting together their cabinet so they can "hit the ground running" (after all the Inauguration parties, of course). Top on the rumor-mill list is Primary opponent Hillary Clinton for Secretary of State. Don't forget to sign this petition: No Foxes in the Henhouse! to oppose LARRY "Africa Is 'Under-Polluted'" SUMMERS for Treasury Secretary. Of course, as the economy continues to tank and more job losses are announced, the focus this week is on the economy, featuring NOBEL PRIZE ECONOMIST PAUL KRUGMAN on This George and his alter ego TOM "World is Flat" FRIEDMAN on Meet the Tom, who also has CARL LEVIN vs. SEN. RICHARD SHELBY to discuss whether Detroit Iron needs government cash or not to build more SUVs and monster trucks. Then BARNEY FRANK faces off against RICHARD SHELBY on Face the Bob. Tune in 60 Minutes for a post-election interview with Mr. & Mrs. Obama. THROW BRICKS at ARNOLD "Girlie Man" SCHWARZENEGGER on This George, NEWT "Contract ON America" GINGRICH on Face the Bob and T. BOONE PICKENS on Meet the Tom. (Did you know Pickens wants to sell you water at a profit to him? See Public Citizen T. Boone Pickens in Texas and WatchYourAssests T is for ‘Taking’: Did Texas Sell T.

With a resounding 364-163 projected Electoral College win and a seven-million popular vote margin, US citizens elected Obama/Biden to the White House. On top of that, Democrats picked up 20-some US House seats and at least six more chairs in the august US Senate (pending a few recounts in Minnesota, Alaska and Georgia). And so ends possibly the worst presidency in history with the current Commander-in-Chief's approval rating hovering in the mid 20's. Let's go to the video! President-Elect Obama will have two foreign military occupations, a devastated economy, erosion of civil liberties, a health care system run amok, disintegrating infrastructure, job losses not seen in 15 years and more to deal with. First out of the gate is Rahm Emanuel as NEW WH Chief of Staff, who will visit with Face the Bob and This George. Then, look for Transition Team members JOHN PODESDA on Wolfie and Fake News Sunday and VALERIE JARRETT on Meet the Tom. Trying to explain the tarnished GOP Brand will be the McCain Campaign manager RICK DAVIS on This George and Former RNC Chairman MEL MARTINEZ on Meet the Tom. Also on with U-Boat Captian Blitzer is everybody's favorite "flaming liberal" HARRY "Milquetoast" REID and DA GOVERNATOR himself to explain his state's "girly man" phobia. Don't forget Ring of Fire this week for a great interview with Documentary film director Stefan Forbes, his latest BOOGIEMAN: The Lee Atwater Story and one of Brick TeeVee's heroes, Brad Freidman of BradBlog.com to discuss all the voting "irregularities" that happened this week and those that are still ongoing. Catch His Bradness on the Peter B. Collins Show podcast courtesy Green 960 HERE (<--- .mp3). Also, BrickTeeVee understands ERIC MASSA (D-NY29) is up by about 4,400 votes and may face a recount. As Eric says, "...my respect for our democratic system prevents me from making such a declaration until every vote is counted. To do any less would be a disservice to our democracy and our men and women serving overseas whose votes are yet to be counted." We fully agree, Eric! The BrickTeeVee crew proudly stood with 40,000 other Buckeyes and voted for Nader/Gonzalez (a whopping 0.74%!). Get in on the ground floor! Check out November5.org!!! And start holding the new administration accountable by signing this petition: No Foxes in the Henhouse! to oppose LARRY "Africa Is 'Under-Polluted'" SUMMERS for Treasury (NOTE: When you sign this petition, your comments will go to John Podesta and Michael Strautmanis of the Obama transition team.) Oh yeah, throw bricks at the hosts this week!

Brick TeeVee is a preview of the Sunday Talking Head Shows beamed across America by Corporate Media, plus some good progressive radio and who will be on which show. If you have other Sunday Talkie shows' guest lists we don't have, please share below. Post your comments while you watch! It's fun, it's healthy and doggonit at least we'll know others can also see through the media manipulation that blankets our public airwaves. DEBUNK HERE!

So, with no further ado, I present to you This Week's Brick TeeVee entry!

ALL LINKS OPEN A NEW WINDOW!!!

Well, well, well. Here we are, after BILLIONS of dollars have been spent by campaigns across the country to convince We the People they're not George Bush, even know the guy or ever heard of him. Yep, everything's NEW! Pay no attention to the last seven wretched years! "It wasn't US!" they proclaim. The cycle of your donations to campaigns getting funneled back into the (so-called) Main Stream Media is intact. Said media "outlets" in turn, airs said campaigns' deceptive, misleading ads, and those media outlets pocket the extra! Then they pile on in so-called "news shows" and editorials that are just so much pap with very little FACTS it's amazing anyone in Greater America can unravel it all. So much for the PUBLIC Airwaves, eh? Our "democracy" is an illusion concocted by the corporate interests you invite into your home every time you turn on the teevee. But, like a traffic accident, we cannot turn away, but gawk ever more. So, turn on that teevee one more time Sunday morning to watch and listen to self-proclaimed millionaire pundits like George Will, David Gregory, Chris Matthews, Chris Wallace, Wolf Blitzer, the myriad of Dem and GOP spokespeople and electeds. This week's offerings will vary very little from preceding shows, so enter at your own risk. We at Brick TeeVee have cast our lot to a third party candidate. We urge our viewers (all three or four of you plus the NSA) to check out TV NEWS LIES and THE REAL NEWS NETWORK along with Democracy Now!, LINK-TV, Nova M Radio and all the alternate media available to you, while they're still there.

LAST CALL! CITIZEN EXIT POLLING! The Brick TeeVee crew be running Citizen Exit Polling on Election Day Tuesday in Cuyahoga County (Home of the Stolen 2004 Election). YOU and ALL YOUR FRIENDS can sign up here: Election Defense Alliance It's not too late to sign up and get your hands dirty in democracy at the ground floor. I recommend it for anybody that gives a crap about this country and The Constitution. Just DO IT. At YOUR precinct at least. It's not hard to do. The bigger the sample, the better. All the info is at Election Defense Alliance
