Until now I had ignored this thread because I had my fill of US politics.
I think I missed something. I just saw a short explanation on the news of the full story.

Wow.

You guys are always good for a laugh.

Actually, comedy and politics have gone hand in hand for ages.

As for entertainers in politics, here's something to think about:

Quote:
[Dr. Emmett Brown is doubting Marty McFly's story about that he is from the future]
Dr. Emmett Brown: Then tell me, "Future Boy", who's President in the United States in 1985?
Marty McFly: Ronald Reagan.
Dr. Emmett Brown: Ronald Reagan? The actor?
[chuckles in disbelief]
Dr. Emmett Brown: Then who's VICE-President? Jerry Lewis?
[rushing out and down a hill toward his laboratory]
Dr. Emmett Brown: I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady!
Marty McFly: [following Doc] Whoa! Wait! Doc!
Dr. Emmett Brown: And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury.
Marty McFly: [outside the lab door] Doc, you gotta listen to me.
Dr. Emmett Brown: [opens the door to the lab] I've had enough practical jokes for one evening. Good night, Future Boy!
[closes the door leaving Marty outside]
The guy who co-starred with a monkey is considered by some to be one of our best presidents.

Speaking of mixing politics and entertainment, I love the fact that there are a lot of people who believe that Stephen Colbert is really a conservative and is either pretending to parody a conservative or is actually on the level. When you can leave that many people guessing, it shows that you are a real artist......or that they are morons.

It's true he's not "really" a conservative. He's admitted (on only a few occasions, after being prodded many many times) that he is, in fact, a Democrat. However, he is also a practicing Catholic, and he has stated in interviews that there are occasional issues which, while his in-character tirade on the subject is still over-the-top (and anyone who truly believes he's "on the level" about anything on the show is a moron,) he does actually believe the core principals of what his character is saying. He says his executive producer Allison Silverman is one of the very few who can reliably say to him, "You actually believe this one, don't you?"

See here for just one example of his personal beliefs clearly leaking into his character performance.

That's okay, no one's going to take the word of a sheep-fucker anyway.

You did hear that about TheMercenary, right? Yeah, I heard he's totally a sheep-fucker.

Thanks to Bruce for the YouTube trick.
