Comments on: The Hackery Of Jackie Mason http://www.oliverwillis.com/2007/08/17/the-hackery-of-jackie-mason/ Like Kryptonite To Stupid Sat, 11 Feb 2012 06:30:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.4 By: Joyful Alternative http://www.oliverwillis.com/2007/08/17/the-hackery-of-jackie-mason/#comment-63869 Joyful Alternative Sun, 19 Aug 2007 16:33:25 +0000 http://improveman.com/ow2008/?p=5468#comment-63869 When was Jackie Mason funny? I'm almost old enough to retire, and I don't remember him ever being funny. I think people laugh at his accent sometimes, but that's about it. And Dennis Miller's not funny, though maybe he was at some point. I never heard of him until he crashed as a sports host. George W. Bush used to be funny, until people started dying because of his faux macho cowboy schtick. When was Jackie Mason funny? I’m almost old enough to retire, and I don’t remember him ever being funny.

I don't read the right-wing sites, except for comment-less Reynolds, so I guess I'm not used to it, but those people are friggin scary.

I managed to get halfway through that. I couldn't go farther than his bit about Harry Reid because I kept remembering the 1990s and the Republican attitude to Bill Clinton. Note to Jackie: Well, yeah. We wouldn't give a shit if he didn't get Bush elected, because then all his voter fraud and leaks would be a perfunctory investigation because he lacked the power to avoid this investigation, and because there would be 600,000 Iraqis still alive. You wouldn't give a damn about James Carville if he didn't get Clinton elected. As for anything wrong, this is a guy who admitted under oath that he used the apparatus of government on Joe Wilson because he was a "Democrat." Wow. I managed to get halfway through that.

He was only cast because Rodney Dangerfield wanted to make massive script rewrites. The producers said no, Dangerfield left the building, and they had to cast someone. It's not Mason's fault that Dangerfield was right. I prefer to remember his short bit during <i>History of the World part 1</i> about playing ping-pong with his balls.

Why is it all the past their prime ex-comedians suckle on the conservative teat?

Because conservative humor is so pathetic that Bruce Tinsley still has a strip.

Caddyshack II pretty much confirmed it.
