Dan Bakkedahl: [narrating; talking about a member of the Republican congressional softball league who walked out during an interview after receiving an email instructing him not to talk to the Daily Show] Apparently the tough-talking hombres of the Republican Party are pussies when it comes to interviews. But one thing they can't hide from is Chapter 84, Section 14 of the Electronic Communications Regulation Act, which allows us to record and broadcast phone calls.
[dials the phone; man answers]
Bob Honnold: This is Bob Honnold.
Dan Bakkedahl: Hi, Bob, this is Dan Bakkedahl at the Daily Show.
Bob Honnold: Hey, Dan, how are ya?
Dan Bakkedahl: Sorry things didn't work out.
Bob Honnold: I am too.
Dan Bakkedahl: And, uh, see if there's anything else, if you'd like to make a comment or anything on the subject...
Bob Honnold: Uh, I don't.
Dan Bakkedahl: No comment?
Bob Honnold: No.
Dan Bakkedahl: Listen, one final question: Would you say that your decision to storm out in the middle of an interview would reflect a general dickishness amongst Republicans that's probably responsible for the fact that New Orleans is under water? And I will take a hang-up to mean yes.
[dial tone; Bakkedahl nods thoughtfully]
