What do Roland Hedley, Martin Eisenstadt, Stephen Colbert & Joe Lieberman have in common? All will pretend to be conservative for the right price.

    I would, too. This economy is rough all over. Plus, I believe it was Cyndi Lauper who said (sang), “Money changes everything.”

    While we’re on the topic of the blurry line between reality & fiction, guess who helped convince Gary Trudeau to start up a Twitter feed for the aforementioned Faux-Fox correspondent Roland Hedley?

    From a Nov. 2 WaPo column by Howard Kurtz:

    It began as a two-week burst of “performance art,” Trudeau says, but an e-mail from ABC’s Jake Tapper “taunted” him into having Hedley start an actual Twitter account. “I kind of got carried away with it. . . . It’s the functional equivalent of going door to door, once you start answering queries from strangers.”

    The only way this could get any better is if someone discovers that Tapper is actually a character created by Timmy Johnson.

    It’s becoming clearer and clearer that everything on the planet is 1 degree of separation from this blog.

    Wait, isn’t only ONE of them an actual entertainer? It’s that Lieberman guy, right?
