LAURA DOES JON?

So Fox is readying a Daily Show ripoff? Starring Laura Ingraham?

I'm not surprised she would tackle this. Laura, whom I listen to fairly often on her radio talk show, thinks she is just hilarious. A staple of her show is her laughing uproariously at her takes on such subjects as Ted Kennedy's weight, Helen Thomas' nose, liberals' names and and speech patterns. And oh my God! She's so funny when she gets critical of Madeline Albright's choice of dress! And her sound effects -- the flushing toilet, the cock crowing -- are SO brilliantly original. Sure Laura should take on Jon Stewart and his staff of first-rate comedy writers! It's a sure-fire winner. Who could doubt it?
