      More evidence -- as if more were needed -- that wingnuts lack the comedic gene . . . unless, of course, the subject is murder.

      Don't quit your day job, Laura -- and don't sing, either . . .

      SNL skit:
      O'Reilly starts kicking blondes of his set because he can't remeber any of their names because to him they are all nothing but Ts&As. Laura kicks Bill in the balls and his only chance to get control over the set is to return the favor to Laura by crushing her testicles with his bare hands.

      This is about as hilarious as the ignorant Cindy McCain "plus size" bit she did a couple months ago. What kills me is she and the numb skull side-kick dude would swear it is just comedy gold. Nothing could be further from the truth.

      Really, Laura? You find old people getting kicked down chutes to their death funny? Okay, whatever floats your boat.

      By the way, Laura: first rule of comedy-- don't laugh at your own jokes.

        Steve Allen laughed at his own jokes, but he was an amazing ad libber, and, as he said in an interview, "I laugh at them because I'm hearing them for the first time, too."

        "Laura: first rule of comedy-- don't laugh at your own jokes."

        Second rule of comedy: if you have to explain your joke, it ain't funny . . .

      This talk hag isn't ready for prime time that's for sure.

      I doubt she'll ever be able to parlay her comedic talent into a political job like a certain comedian/writer for SNL.

        Gosh, I wonder why there aren't more right wing comedy writers. They're almost as good at it as they are at making charts.

            But the important thing is that you could and that you're simply too bored to draw from what's clearly an endless list of funny, right-leaning people.

              No, I think his point was he could continue in spite of being bored. He just chose not to.

                VERY interesting read, Col. It appears that I may have underestimated this young man's deliberate choice to not unleash upon us an inventory of conservative hilarity the likes of which could forever alter us with laughter we never knew existed.

                  Healthy inventory?

                  Of those he wasn't to bored to list, two [Penn & Teller] are magicians, and I've never even heard of the other one . . .

      I wonder what a Republican has to say about this REAL doctor (see youtube link) who works as a general practicianer in the UK where they actually have real socialized medicine. Not even France, Canada, and Germany have literal GOVERNMENT PAID DOCTORS.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20xc-esaJv4&feature=channel_page

      Maybe Ingraham could convince herself if she saw this video that that doctor got his material possessions from winning the lottery instead of from his job?
