Remember when the right thought Stephen Colbert was the real deal? They believed he was really a right wing comedian/commentator and couldn’t seem to understand that his whole routine is making fun of the right. Well those righties haven’t become any smarter since then: Fox News’ opinion website Fox Nation and their readers don’t seem […]
Mary Katharine Ham of The Weekly Standard is up in arms because Jon Stewart told an audience he would like to say “Fuck you” to Sarah Palin in response to her “pro-America parts of the country” comment. Even more disturbing is that she is trying to equate the punchline of a comedian to the calls […]
A sad loss for the world of comedy: Harvey Korman, the tall, versatile comedian who won four Emmys for his outrageously funny contributions to “The Carol Burnett Show” and played a conniving politician to hilarious effect in “Blazing Saddles,” died May 29 at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. He was 81. Mr. Korman had […]
All this flack over the Don Imus controversy has me thinking about something else. There is a darling of the right out there, one they want to be their President, that has been in the same boat very recently.

Look at what they are doing just because a comedian said Mehlman was gay. It is funny how Ann Coulter can go on television and call Clinton and Gore fags, yet Bill Maher says that Mehlman is gay and that can’t be allowed to happen. It sure sounds like the RNC is out to cover this up. Perhaps more reporters should […]
For those who have missed it, there has been a new little battle that brewed when Robert Novak told CSpan this past weekend that he would never watch Jon Stewart and referred to him as a “self-righteous comedian taking on airs of grandeur”. Think Progress has the video of Novak’s interview. Well this week Stewart […]
Oh this is just great: Dennis Miller is hardly shy about expressing his conservative political views. The 52-year-old comedian, who has voiced his support for President Bush and the U.S. invasion of Iraq, will talk politics as a contributor on Fox News’ “Hannity & Colmes,” network spokeswoman Dana Klinghoffer told The Associated Press on Tuesday. […]
This should be really good: Mocked by comedian and host of “The Daily Show” Jon Stewart for calling the Internet a bunch of tubes, U.S. Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Ted Stevens said on Thursday he is open to appearing on the popular cable television program for a rebuttal. The comedian has parodied the dean of […]
