Angry because a comedian isn't making fun of somebody? Is it their fault that the Bushies were a deadly serious hyper-dangerous superblooper for eight years and you zombies lined up to support it? It was too easy. And so hilarious the way you trotted the military out into two campaigns and left their asses hanging in the breeze for six years after mission accomplished, totally humiliating our armed forces and draining the treasury to boot! HILARIOUS! Or the way Ashcroft didn't want to hear about those "Al Qaedas" anymore, and Bush said "your ass is covered" to the hand delivered message of warning that came to his Crawford ranch. And then we got attacked! HILARIOUS! Or the way he never caught Osama Bin Laden with the largest, most powerful fighting machine on the planet deployed to do just that. UPROARIOUS! You guys sure make for good comedy. Let's hope Obama's never that funny. I could give a flying fart about the Democrats, but you cons are the real joke.

The most obvious humourous direct attack on Obama is that he really is a phony and is in waaaaaay over his head. And that he is just Jesse Jackson/Al Aharpton with a smile. But as many have mentioned, this strikes too close to the lefts core beliefs, so tangential auperficial and light humour is all we can continue to expect to see.

OK. Will do. You set the rules with your behavior and now we're just reciprocating with the same. If you wanted your Messiah to be treated with civility, respect, and common decency, you should have moderated your outrage and bile for the last eight years. A loss in US politics is always temporary, as you found out. We're on the outside looking in now and we'll do whatever the hell we please so STFU, spread your prayer carpet in the direction of the White House, and pray that Saint Barack has the ability to work miracles your cohort ascribed to him. Otherwise, he's a one-term president. Like the uber-left did when Bush won? OK. Will do. You set the rules with your behavior and now we're just reciprocating with the same.

You're wastin' my time. Is that supposed to be a story an audience will pay money to see? Okay, stop crying. Try this. Make the black guy a boxer. Yeah, fights his way up from the vicious streets to a shot at the title. That mother thing. No rape. Let her get killed by a drunk driver. Make him white-trash with a gun rack in his truck. Waving a Confederate flag? That could work. Make him Latino? Are you kiddin'? That's racist. Make the father a black marine. Gets killed in some waste-of-our-tax money, save-the-world for democracy type crap thing. Like World War Two or one of those. Dies savings his white lieutenant - Harvard type, all breedin' no brains. Gets the medal the kid's father deserved. See what I mean? That's what audiences want. What you've pitched? No way. Couldn't happen. Oh, crap, will ya knock off the cryin'. Okay, okay. Try the guy in the office next door. He's produced a few fantasy flops. Which is what you've got there. Unbelievable. Anyhow, it's just not me. I only do family films. Hey, AlistZ.

Too funny.

And the audience not only notices, but they get tired of 'The One-in-cotton- wool' approach. Are any of the standup comics in the clubs doing anything vaguely Obama-barbed? I suspect it'll only take one comic big hitter with enough guts to start the dart throwing (equal barbs for all ex-Presidents), and they'll all have to do it.

Bob Dole was also pretty dry, but he at least got mocked for *being* dry. It was the same story with Al Gore before his hypocritical global warming crusade gave him protected status. It seems that no mainstream comic has the guts to try even that angle with Obama. "but there is still the problem of Obama being so dry that he just doesn't inspire mirth."
