Get out the popcorn and your point-and-laughing finger...

George Stephanopoulos reports that Michael Steele will be doing his first interview since the Big Voyeur Scandal on ABC's Good Morning America tomorrow.

Who knew GMA was a comedy show?

George Stephanopoulos offered job as co-host Good Morning America

By GottaLaff

I'd hate to lose him on Sunday mornings. If ABC ends up with a David Gregory equivalent, then I give up:

ABC has offered George Stephanopoulos "the coveted job of co-hosting Good Morning America, and intensive negotiations are under way," the Washington Post reports. [...]

"The onetime Clinton White House aide has also asked to hang on to his current job as the host of Washington-based This Week for as long as possible, although ABC executives do not believe he can handle both programs over the long term. ABC has not yet turned to the question of who might succeed Stephanopoulos on the prestigious Sunday show."

So who should replace him on This Week?

Bristol Palin's ex, Levi Johnston: "It's just us not, me not being mature enough, or something"

BuzzFlash Tweeted the link, and who am I to turn down a good link?

'K, so Levi, y'know? Levi sez he's, like, totally not mature enough or something, to, y'know, totally get married and raise babies and stuff. I mean, fer sure, rilly, who'd wanna do all that when you're still a teenager, right?

Levi Johnston, the former fiance of Bristol Palin, says the couple broke up "a week, two weeks" ago but leaves open the possibility that they could reunite.

Oh em gee! They could still, like, totally get back together! I'm like, so stoked! Kewl!

"We'll see, we'll see how it is," Johnston, 19, said March 13 in an exclusive interview at his Alaska home with Neal Karlinsky of "Good Morning America." "We'll just remain friends for now. We're both cool with that decision, and we'll see."

Um, like, no way. They are so not ever hooking up again. Serious. I mean, if he's, like saying they're just friendz? And that they're both kewl with that? That so means they're gonna see other people. Which is totally kewl, except for that whole baby thing and stuff.

"We were just, we were in a fight," the teen said. "And trying to see if we can make things work. But this is what it kind of ended up turning into. But we'll see what happens."

'K, here's the thing: When a dude sez, "we'll see what happens", it means it's not gonna, like, happen.

Johnston said he felt they needed time to grow up before following through on marriage plans.

"It's just us not, me not being mature enough, or something, and having a kid and thinking ... it could be better -- better for us to separate for a while," Johnston said.

Hint, hint, Bristol-l-l-l-l: "A while" means for, like, everr-r-r. I'm hee-e-e-re for you, Bris!

Omg, did I just call her Bris? That was so, like, Jewish of me!

Johnston sees his son regularly and described how becoming a father had changed his life.

"I'd give anything for [Tripp], to be with him," he said. "[There are] a lot of changes when you're a father, when you hold him for the first time, you know. I don't do a lot of things I used to anymore, I'll tell you that."

Pshyeah! Like get wasted. And get with your friends and cruise for chicks. And hang out with your ex.

"Yeah, [I'm] growing up a lot," he added. "So, it's fun. It's good times."

Growing up super fast is fun? Meaning, having an out-of-wedlock baby and having to explain it to everyone and publicly breaking up with your girlfriend and having to provide for a child is fun? Like, serious? I'm so texting everyone I know about that.

Asked if he felt any pressure from the Palin family, Johnston said he did not.

"No," he said. "Not at all."

And then he sworetogod that nobody paid him to say that. He's s-o-o-o grown up that way.

VIDEO: Good Morning America interview with Michelle Obama

I haven't watched this yet, but I can't imagine she didn't do her usual excellent job of coming across as a warm, smart, unpretentious First Lady with tons to offer:



I did manage to catch the ecstatic reception she got. Wow.

This is so much laughworthy material here. A veritable buffet:

This interview on ABC's Good Morning America includes the infamous "I'm not doing this for naught" moment.
