Chimperror2: Best line was "We have a term for Obama, Not two."

This is what passes for conservative humor, folks.

This, and rampant racism like "don't re-nig in 2012"

Do any of your right-wing apologists really think that any of the RepubliFox candidates have the same self-awareness as President Obama?

It probably takes an hour to explain Leno's monologue to Romney.

"You see, sir. The jokes was meant referring to your time at Bain Capital when you deliberately drove those companies into the ground and killed thousands of American jobs."

"What do you mean? I provided a massive return on investment with no risk."

"Yes, sir, but many Americans need jobs, so they're a bit sensitive when it comes to people who cause thousands to be unemployed."

Kind of a shame really.

Almost makes me want to pity them...almost

Mrtraveler01: Byn: and he has about as much personality of a cremation urn

To be honest, that describes most Canadian politicians.

Unless they're being interviewed by Rick Mercer.


*sigh* I really hate that I can't be outraged by this comment.

/Don't even mention Stockwell Day, mkay?

My favorite part was at the end when Kimmel said they were all what was wrong with America...

and they laughed and laughed and laughed.

Bob Rey showed balls when he did it with Mercer.

tenpoundsofcheese: good to see that Kim K and Lindsey Lohan were willing to show up.

Wow. This is the best that the trolls can come up with when they haven't been spoonfed the daily talking points. It really is quite sad when you think about it.
 
2012-04-29 12:16:55 PM
Just imagine how great it would have been if Louis C.K. had done it. Not only do conservatives have no sense of humor and a tremendous hatred of anyone who does, but a remarkably thin skin to go with it.
 
2012-04-29 12:20:16 PM
Did he mention anything about his key piece of legislation is about to be ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court? Now that's a real knee-slapper!

SixPaperJoint: A friend of mine, and graduate of the school, told me that it was in response to the college's request for federal financial aid for its students. The link you provide makes no mention of this and in the FAQ it only says there is no direct aid. He lives in Cali and I don't, probably wrong though.

If that's true, they deserved it for their stupidity. I mean, come on, how do you expect them to react to such a request? Trolling the feds isn't such a good idea when you operate an institution that educates people about how to produce a product that exists in such a grey area?

tenpoundsofcheese: nekom: Rueened: Fundamentally unsuited to any position of responsibility.

Enjoy another 4 years of failure.

Meh. I've enjoyed 31 years of government failure in one way or another in my life. What's another 4?

another 5,000,000,000,000 of debt.


That's awful. Simply awful!

What we need now is for MItt Romney to sweep in an era of austerity and deregulation leading instantly to a second Great Depression. I mean, under Obama, America has done better than any other country in the world in climbing out of the Great Recession that the GOP and Bush spread across the earth. But if we f*ck everyone who's not uber-wealthy, we can make the mega rich a little richer. Maybe we can even outlaw abortion and gay marriage!

Good luck with that.

I wonder what percentage of the folks in that room were millionaires and in the top 1%.

I'm going to guess almost everyone other than the waiters/waitresses.

Tell us more about how you know what the Supreme Court will decide. Your track record of being correct is stellar so far, so I'm looking forward to paying close attention to what you have to say.

Actually, yes, and it got a decent laugh, too.

In my first term, we passed health care reform; in my second term, I guess I'll pass it again.

apoptotic: Either Obama has much better writers than Kimmel, or Kimmel just isn't funny.

c: all of the above

the off camera hot mic thing was my favorite bit face it the Dems are just funnier at these things. Bush had that awful WMD video where Clinton had this gem Link not to mention Janet Reno crashing her dance party

jake_lex: The more I think about this, the more I realize it's brilliant. What President Obama is saying, in effect, is this: "All this shiat about me eating dog and my Secret Service agents banging hookers is silly bullshiat nonsense, and I'm going to treat it that way. The Republicans can get all pissy and butthurt about it if they want, but they're getting pissy and butthurt about silly nonsense. So that means they're douchebags."

The Obama Campaign has only just begun, and they now have their target. This isn't even going to be close.


Ummm, the Obama administration is the one that fired the agents, set new rules and created chaperones. That was before the Republicans did anything. So if he really wants to say it's silly bullshiat nonsense, he should rehire the agents and apologize instead of destroying their careers and making the family breadwinners unemployed.

My favorite joke of the night (Kimmel's, surprisingly):

The President wanted to have this year's dinner at the Kennedy Center, but Speaker Boehner wanted to keep it at the Hilton.

So, the President negotiated, and we're here at the Hilton.

He referred to my "track record of being correct", implying I have made predictions that never came true. The Supreme Court hasn't made a decision yet, so how is that already part of my history of bad predictions? Are you really of the belief that the entire law will be held constitutional? Are you really that ignorant of the Supreme Court?

I hope the writers were well paid, because there were multiple times I laughed at Kimmel's jokes which may be the first time I can ever claim that.

"Last year at this time, this very weekend, we finally delivered justice to one of the world's most notorious individuals," Obama said. Then a picture of real estate mogul Donald Trump appeared on the room's television monitors.

The only thing that would have made that even funnier is if Trump was in the audience again so we could get another shot of him seething while trying to look like he didn't care.

Meh, can't have everything, it was another great performance all in all.

GAT_00: At least they brought the funny. You have to give some props for actually pulling off a contraception joke. And I'm not sure Michele knew the pit bull joke was going to be in there. That was a 'did you REALLY just farking say that?' look.

Yeah, pretty sure he didn't run that joke past Michelle first. Lawls.

Jon Stewart must just love this. Another segment that largely writes itself.

You're absolutely right -the coincidental political belief set between you and other humorless auto-trolls is no reason to think every conservative is one.

Jesus, you're great. Please stick around.
