Ok, I saw this over at KOS and though it was so funny I would post it here. I will give fair warning, it makes fun of both our democratic candidates so if you don't have a sense of humor, save yourself the angst and don't watch!
First for context here is the NBA commercial.
Now the democratic nomination snark. I think it's pretty funny, YMMV.
Don't go all misogynist on me either, it's just satire.
Hillary Clinton explodes at news of her imminent Downfall -- from inside her bunker!
Somewhat to my surprise, it seems like there is some fairly heavy-handed moderation happening on this site. Worse, this moderation appears to be either silent or disingenuously disguised as "bugs." For example, since I can "review hidden comments," I assume I am a trusted user. But at the same time, I cannot rate posts. On another of my accounts, I can see zero-rated comments, but neither rate nor comment. I assume these features have been disabled because I offended someone who knew the administrators, but I have received no email confirming this.
Let's see how long this diary lasts...
At a recent Pennsylvania rally, Obama was quoted as saying:
If there is one thing......I can't.....stand for..,.. it's.......do..gs......and....bu....nny. ....rab....bits.
He's clearly pandering to cat owning elitists (that probably drink Chai Tea and shop at Trader Joes) here. Snubbing good dog and bunny loving Americans is not a very American way to win an American election.
Hatred for God's most loving creatures is definitely going to hurt him in the GE, because you can't win an American election on cat owners votes alone, and beyond that, isn't an American president supposed to serve ALL pets, not just elitist pets.
I am currently an Obama supporter, but thinking of switching to Hillary because I can not abide his hatred for all things innocent and small. Actually, I just switched in the space between sentences.
GO HILLARY!!!
I can now officially present to you, with a budget of $15 for beer (approximately $39.999985 million less than the actual movie), Part 1 of a 2-part series.

Dear President Bush,
We at Laughing Liberally are so upset we forgot about your birthday last week, especially since you're sooo good about birthdays. Even during Katrina, which we all know really hit you hard, even as you mourned the loss of Trent Lott's porch, you took the time to fly to Arizona and give John McCain a birthday cake. (We were going to get you a brass belt buckle but Stephan Harper beat us to it.) So we decided to make you this video. Enjoy!
P.S. If you're in NYC this summer, totally come check out our shows. And invite Cheney (if he's feeling up to it) because I think he'll really get a kick out of it. And if he wants to bring Mary, we'll make sure none of our gay or lesbian performers go up that night so it's not weird.
Laughing Liberally is pleased to announce a new online video in honor of the 4th of July: "Proud to Be an American." Check it out, or the Neocons have already won.

I did not, contrary to popular belief, get my liberal feminist panties all up in a bunch upon reading this review. I am brainy enough to know when I've been busted. And I actually agree with the review. I admit, "The whole show was a bit of a crude cliché. All the comics easily fit into MTV-assigned Real World stereotypes: the Arab-American talked about 9/11...." Just like every other half Palestinian-American, half Italian-American-Catholic comic, Dean Obeidallah mentioned 9/11, an event irrelevant to the rest of the population. He should just shut up because nobody cares about 9/11 any more. It's so 2001. Likewise, "the black comic [Shang] was angry.... He praised praised North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il's fashion sense (`His style is so pimp!'). Shang's dirty mouth and gold chain imprisoned him in black stereotypes." So, Shang, take it from a National Review "brother" who knows: you have nothing to lose but your gold chains. So ditch them and buy yourself some Banana Republic clothes. To clean your mouth, try this replacing pimp with procurer. It sounds just as cool to say "Kim Jong-il's style is--"so procurer."
I, perhaps, am the biggest stereotype of all. "The cute woman was a little brainy." I am guilty of jumping on the cute woman who is a little brainy comic bandwagon. I try so hard not to join the club of female comics who stand up on stage and talk about nothing but Iranian diplomacy and the United States Supreme Court. I wish I could talk about things female comics never talk about like boys, dieting and bikini waxes. But we are all products of our society, and seeing my fellow female comics talk exclusively about Darfur and Plamegate makes it hard for me to tackle the harder issues female comics shy away from.
