(He came to tell jokes at Occupy, for U.S. troops abroad, and will amuse us all at Vroman's this Thursday.
(Jimbo, what in the h*aven happened to Feldman? He's become an apologist for Israel and centrists open to leaning right? At least we still have our comical "Bitter Buddha," Eddie Pepitone, and Frank Coniff!)

One is how fat cats always get richer and pay fewer taxes while leaving regular folks holding the bag. Another is how the government pleads poverty when the time comes to repair America’s infrastructure, yet can bail out Wall Street bankers to the tune of $2 billion a week.
But most of Dore’s contempt is for the media. While he is best known as a nationally headlining club comedian with two acclaimed Comedy Central specials, Dore has earned the right to criticize the media because he is now part of it.
As the host of “The Jimmy Dore Show” each week on KPFK 90.7 FM and Pacifica radio stations nationwide, and as a member of the popular Web-based political commentary series “The Young Turks” (TYTnetwork.com), Dore has shown that he has a freewheeling political instinct that owes loyalty to nothing but the truth.
He’s now collected his views into a bitingly funny book called Your Country Is Just Not That Into You. “The media used to be the watchdogs, but they’ve been bought by the people they’re supposed to be investigating,” says Dore.
