It was so funny he almost lost it once. I love the attic bit. If only . . .

I saw that and almost passed out from laughing. And every word of it is so true!

If only Beck would disappear for three years and not make a sound, and with luck he could take Sarah with him

My God that's good. It's amazing that people watch that and don't get it. Bailing out GM is Nazi like, but demanding your papers is all American! Woo hoo!

Reality is that John Q. is a fucking idiot.

Call me elitist if you so desire...

To be fair, I didn't watch the whole thing.

Once I saw it was Jon Stewart, I came to the conclusion that it was comedy directed at others than myself.

I've seen enough of his work to appreciate it for what it's worth. Doesn't mean it isn't funny, but hardly what I would call insightful political commentary.

I saw Lew Black live once. It was one of the best shows I've ever seen.

Sorry, never liked the guy.

Never could stand him or Ben Stein. Rather watch paint dry or an obama speech, then watch either of them.

Ben Stein sucks, but Lewis Black is good, IMHO. And I like Obamas speeches. He may be full of shit, but he does "full of shit" so well. Almost as good as Reagan.

I think his speeches are much better than Ray-Gun's.
Ronnie's had less substance. In facts if you read the Carter Ray-gun debate Ronnie lost. What Ronnie was was calming and reassuring.
Obie seems to be more of a "spiritual uplifting" with sound well though out positions. He is just inept after the speeches where as Ronnie knew how to work DC.
