America still hates the Republican party. At some point it’ll be five guys at a NASCAR race.

    Maybe it’s just me, but I wouldn’t rush to make fun of Nascar or other “Republican” pasttimes. Democrats are on top right now, but keep in mind that they win people over with policy while the Republicans do it by acting like they’re regular people. And as we’ve seen time and again, it is oh so easy for the GOP to make people think that the elephants are salt of the Earth and the donkeys are elitists.

    That entire skit looked like it was dreamed by a couple of college Young Democrat theater majors for the Friday night comedy hour at the student union. Like maybe Jaim and CB Sturbridge worked on it all of about two hours after reading this site and HuffPo.

    And it’s a crying shame to see one of SNL’s best ever in Dan Aykroyd stumbling through his lines like he did; his heart just not into it.

    I watched this last night and at first thought it would be all over the lefty blogs, then thought when it was over that is was so weak that even they would pass on it.

    FAIL.

    Dennis, let it never be said that we don’t agree on anything. I did not find the skit amusing at all, and while I love Aykroyd… it was clearly not his best moment.

    I don’t like Akroyd, but I thought the skit was funny (as was the one last week lampooning Reid and Pelosi).

    I’ll make fun of NASCAR no matter who’s in power in Washington.

    I don’t like A[y]kroyd

    Heresy. His best moment in modern times was his Bob Dole point/counterpoint skit.

    This skit wasn’t “funny, ha ha” as much as its entertainment value comes from watching a trainwreck unfold. It’s a different kind of humor. Not my favorite, but it works under the circusmtances.

    Dennis: “FAIL.”

    The surest sign it was funny. Dennis didn’t think so.

    This is a man who can is only right by accident.

    Love, love Dennis instructing us as to the ways of The Funny. Cheers bra. I bet the Daily Show and The Onion could make use your mad Funny detecting skillz. You should look into that.

    You know what’s really funny? When wingnut dildos chime in on blog comments with bon mots like “…they agreed with some of the tenets of the Laffer Curve…” That’s (still) Funny on oh so many different levels. How can I make this claim? Because I know Funny.

    Is it funnier that Dennis saying three is most of nine?

    Or Jay saying that having his life saved by a medical procedure he couldn’t afford and that other American tax-payers footed the bill for isn’t socialism/wellfare?

    Hard to say which is funniest. But we can all agree that in the blog comments arena, Dennis et al are the Kings of Unintentional Comedy.

    No, Zython, that would be describing people like Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, Steve Martin and Al Franken NOW when they try to joke about George W. Bush. They and the SNL cast and crew were far better doing comedy when they were all stoned and coked out in the show’s early years. Now when those guys guest on there, it’s just pathetic.

    And that skit did them (Aykroyd and the current cast) no favors.

    That’s right, Zython. You catch that? Making fun of Commander Bunnypants is NOT FUNNY. And Dennis “…agree with several tenets of the Laffer curve” the Dumbfuck knows Funny. Why just ask him.
