Triumph the Insult Comic Dog went into Spin Alley at the last debate and started [messing with the Spin Doctors.](http://wahoobudd.blogs.com.nyud.net:8090/spinalley1.mov) He’s equally brutal to both sides and the clip is filled with great lines. I just about pissed myself laughing at this thing. Watch for the Bill O’Reiily crack.

My favorite was his line to Karl Rove.

“So you’re Bush’s brain? I thought you’d be much smaller.”

If you’re a Republican, don’t worry. Triumph tortures Joe Lockheart and Paul Begala pretty relentlessly as well.

Dying to see it, but the link’s slow.

In a world without Triumph, only darkness would rule.

I liked:

Spin Alley == Poop Vallhala

Also the blond girl from Fox’s (Van Sustrin?) reaction when Triumph starts talking about O’Reilly’s vibrator was hilarious.

Also Begala was deffinately trying to play along. I wonder if this was filmed before or after his Jon Stewart interview.

What are you guys playing it on? It won’t run on Windows Media Player.

I saw that when it aired on Conan a few nights ago. My girlfriend was mad because my laughing like a retard woke her up.

By the way the link no-workie.

The first time I clicked it played no problem. Now it seems to be having trouble loading. Maybe it’s just getting a lot of hits.

(I think it played on RealPlayer but it migh have been Quicktime)

It worked for me, it just took a few minutes.

My favorite joke was the very last one, about how no self-respecting man would show up with a puppet, except maybe Dick Cheney. It definitely got the biggest laughs, especially out of the people with Begala.

Ok, it played for me again. It just takes a while to load. It’s definitely worth the wait, though.

Sounds like several of the more outrageous comments were dubbed in afterwards.

A lot were said directly to the politicos, though.

To Joe Lockheart: “Can you spin a woman into thinking you don’t look gross in the shower?”

To Paul Begala: “Do you tell your children you do something respectable for a living…like running an adult bookstore?”

To an unidentified Bush spinner" “A lot of people think Bush should appeal to women because he’s a douche.”

An exchange with another Bush spinner;

SPINNER: You’re insulting me and you have a hand up your butt.

TRIUMPH: And you don’t?

He made Ralph Reed and Greta Van Susteren run away. He was pretty confrontational.

That jab was a dub for sure.

It was worth it just to hear what he said to Ralph Reid:

“If you’re going to be against gay rights, you better take that pole out of your ass.”

Is there a non-Quicktime clip anywhere?

[This](http://www.ifilm.com/viralvideo?ifilmid=2653646) is the iFilm link that I used. It supports three formats. And a CMA: I don’t know much about iFilm - looks like they might have stuff that is NSFW.

I right-clicked the link at the top of the thread and saved. Then had to download and install QuickTime. It was pretty funny.
