Who Are We?
September 22 2011: Three executions in two days. That seems excessive -- especially when one of those condemned men, Troy Davis, was quite likely innocent. At least there was plenty of room for doubt. But there's no doubt about one thing: He's dead now.

How can you love a country that kills its own citizens? They do this in our name. They make us all accomplices to murder.

I wasn't always against the death penalty. I had to think about it for about 30 years.

Mama O'Shea is BACK, baby!

September 12 2011: We have a complete set of the existing recordings of Mama O'Shea's call-in show from the 70's, 80's and 90's, "Shoutin' Out with Mama O'Shea," and we vowed long ago to make them available to the world via our web site. We've released a few dribs and drabs, but today we are thrilled to announce six complete episodes are now online, and there are plenty more to come now that we've figured out how to do this.

We tried to pick shows that would be relevant to today's world, but that wasn't too hard. Mama and her listeners brought up a lot of issues that still plague us today (only more so). There were solutions then, and some of the suggestions from 20+ years ago are definitely still worth a try.

Check out our Mama O'Shea page for all our Mama cuts. Below are the brand new episodes:

Battle of the Political Hairs: Perry vs. Romney

June 20 2011: Texas Governor Rick Perry is making noises like he wants to run for President, and we here at Chopped Liver Productions are wishing him all the best in this quest.

Imagine what it'd be like, watching two distinguished heads of wavy hair debating. We could stand Rick Perry and Mitt Romney side by side and try to figure out which suit is emptier. I'm sure there's a drinking game in there somewhere. Fun for the whole family!

But beyond that, Rick Perry has said Texas might want to secede from the Union. Maybe with a little more political muscle, Perry might be able to pull it off. That's reason alone to give him our support.

Texans were polled on whether or not they thought secession was a good idea and 58% of respondents didn't like the idea. But that was a survey of all Texans; a majority of Texas Republicans in the poll approved of secession.

So maybe we'll just get rid of Texas Republicans. Win-win! Go Perry!
