John Stewart Discusses the Right Wing Media’s Outrage Over Wanda Sykes Comments, Yet Still Defend Torture
May 12, 2009
The mass hysteria from the right rolled in overnight, just two days after Wanda Sykes appeared at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and gave Rush Limbaugh a taste of his own medicine. Much like when Limbaugh would gleefully sing “Barack the Magic Negro” on a daily basis or when he rabidly, and brutally ripped into Michael J. Fox and his illness – Sykes decided to take it to the next level in her digs aimed at Rush.

The very odd couple: Jacko ‘dates’ Pamela Anderson
September 3, 2008
Michael Jackson is reportedly dating Pamela Anderson.
Pop legend Michael, 50, has met the 41-year-old former ‘Baywatch’ star for two dates in Malibu, California.
A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “It was all arranged by their people in total secrecy, very cloak and dagger. Michael is such a private person. He gets nervous when he thinks people are following him around, so he chose somewhere neutral for their first date.
The Best Comments From John McCain’s Website/Blog: “Classic Stuff”
August 12, 2008
Laughter does not describe what I have been through over the course of the last hour or so. Finding myself bored I decided to head over to John McCain’s website/blog and see what our friend had no clue what I was in for, “Old Man Walnuts” was up too. Seeing as though this was only my second time on his site, I had no clue what a good dose of old fashioned comedy I was in for.
Stephen Colbert Weights in on Hillary’s “Post Primary” Behavior
August 12, 2008
As Denver and the Democratic National Convention that will take the city over just a few short weeks from now have seemed to trigger somewhat of a “reload” which has Hillary Clinton supporters doing what they do best – making demands: some want Hillary to somehow get all those delegates supporting Obama to just, ya know – “change their minds,” and decide Hillary should be the Democratic candidate, while others are less demanding (basically the lesser of two evils) is crying out for a roll call vote on the convention floor with Hillary’s name on the ballot. This of course is the equivalent to the New England Patriots demanding a shot in sudden death overtime after the clock hit zero, and the Giants had won.
So with all of this irrational banter spewing from just about every orifice of media (the internet, TV, newspapers, etc, etc.) who better then Stpehen Colbert to weigh in on the topic, and provide us with some of that superior intellect he has become famous for.
Here is a video clip that has Stephen Colbert discussing the upcoming Democratic National Convention, as well as any alterior motives Bill and Hillary might have for their spotlight roles as part of the convention, and of course Colberts unique, “cut through the fat” analysis of the situation as a whole:
Comedian Bernie Mac Dead at Age 50
August 9, 2008
The Associated Press – Bernie Mac blended style, authority and a touch of self-aware bluster to make audiences laugh as well as connect with him. For Mac, who died Saturday at age 50, it was a winning mix, delivering him from a poor childhood to stardom as a stand up comedian, in films including the casino heist caper “Ocean’s Eleven” and his acclaimed sitcom “The Bernie Mac Show.”
“They’re Baaack”: John Stewart on the Clinton’s Return
August 8, 2008
I try not to do multiple clips a day that come from the same show – but every once and a while it is out of my control, and frankly the scenes are so good that I simply don’t have a choice in the matter and am forced to post two or three. That’s the case today with Comedy Centrals “The Daily Show w/ John Stewart”, where I posted a clip earlier and now am posting a second.
So while I am double dipping in regards to the ole video content, I think that you will see why I had no other option when deciding to toss it up or not. It really is that funny.
Watch Stewart chronicle the Clinton’s return, or attempted return, to the Presidential fray in a way that only John Stewart can:
Stewart Highlights Some of the Bizarre Political Accusations Being Thrown Around
August 8, 2008
Here’s an hilarious clip from Comedy Centrals “Late Night w/ John Stewart” that has the comical host poking fun (aka: doing what he does best) at just about everyone involved in the election – McCain, Obama, liberals, and most of all – the biggest culprit when it comes to the dumbing down of Political discourse – the mainstream media.
He points out that they (the media, talking heads, “experts”, etc) are playing literally every “card” one could imagine. These include the race card, the Europe card, the age card, the elitist card, the experience card, the change card, the populist card, the fear card, the patriotism card, the women card, the class card, the Maliki card, and so on, and so on…
John Stewart: “McCain just played the ‘Get the f*ck out of my face card!!!”
God I love this show, I mean the race genie at the end, and the highlighting of just how inept, and uniformed the mainstream media is in their complete and utter failure in reporting the “news”, opposed to the sensationalized trash mag style they have come to adopt over the years.
So Have You Guys Seen the “Creepy” Theology Expert for FOX News
August 7, 2008
So ya I was watching FOX (don’t ask me why cause I couldn’t tell ya) and they had their favorite “theologian” come on to address the issue of candidate flip flopping. While clearly this issue falls directly inline with any ordained Priest’s realm of expertise, I couldn’t help but notice just how creepy Father Jonathon Morris really is.
