Late night political humor

30 Nov

The late night shows remain in reruns, so we turn our attention to the birthday boy.

Happy birthday to Jon Stewart, who is now 49.

As a tribute, here are some of his funniest quotes of all time:

”Yes, the long war on Christianity. I pray that one day we may live in an America where Christians can worship freely! In broad daylight! Openly wearing the symbols of their religion… perhaps around their necks? And maybe — dare I dream it? — maybe one day there can be an openly Christian President. Or, perhaps, 43 of them. Consecutively.”

“You have to remember one thing about the will of the people: it wasn’t that long ago that we were swept away by the Macarena.”

“What?! The congressman had a sex scandal and had to apologize to Bill Clinton? For what?! Copyright infringement? A patent violation?”
- on Anthony Weiner calling to apologize to Bill Clinton, who officiated at his wedding.

Obama’s secret brother

30 Nov

One of the joys of election season is the off-the-wall screwy ads some candidates run.

We’ve shared many with you of women and their shotguns, men and their goats and production techniques that would make a 6-year old cringe.

The spot’s highlights include a dramatic soundtrack, telegenic host, and fake experts in behavioral science, statistics, and body language.

Is Cain quitting? Maybe.

Either Herman Cain is quitting the GOP Presidential race or he just made a major blunder.

After yet another woman’s allegation of inappropriate behavior, Cain told some of his key campaign officials and volunteers that he will be doing an “assessment” of the state of his presidential candidacy.

You know what the press will do with that word.

This came during a closed conference call less than 24 hours after Cain and senior aides insisted that he will not drop out of the race.

The so-called “assessment” is clearly a reaction to comments by a woman who claimed she had a 13-year extramarital affair with Cain.

Ginger White: “It was pretty simple. It wasn’t complicated. I was aware that he was married. And I was also aware that I was involved in a very inappropriate situation, relationship.”

Here’s the blunder:
