This is the thread for the Fox News "Daily Show for conservatives" thing

See what LUGs and vibrators hath wrought?

In that case that's gotta be the most OMGWTF-cosmically-insane thing ever, that Coulter and writers didn't get that she inadvertantly threatened to invade the U.S., kill U.S. leaders, convert U.S. citizens to Christianity, and so on. Mind blown, etc..

Uh, wtf, Dom, that book is nothing like what Ariel Levy is arguing.

But rightwingers on TV have a higher calling, you see, rather just really lazy and half-assed swipes at funnier people. They should get "get another shot at entertaining our own troops via TV and demonstrating that conservatives do, after all, possess a sense of humor."

Unfortunately, his tips for improving the show don't actually include "TAKE OUT THE RETARDED LAFFTRACK".

She isn't a leftist wacko. Maybe she is now. But back then she wasn't. Guess she is more an Indepedent.

Tina Fey is waiting for her Barbara Walter's special to tell us about her rape scar. This will cement a reverential and protective attitude towards her to the american public, allowing her to bombard us with further mediocrity for years to come.

In her crazy biz, even a knife rape is used for marketing leverage.

Tina, why are you in a business like that? Look what you've turned into.

Pimping your own rape scar!

That is, like, 80% of conservative humor.

This mentality always reminded me of the stuff internet trolls say to convince themselves that they're funny.

Also, I'm pasting this here, since it fits in with the rest of what we've been talking about:

It takes a lot more integrity, character, and courage to be a conservative than it does to be a liberal. That's because at its most basic level, liberalism is nothing more than childlike emotionalism applied to adult issues...

JEd Babbin, who hasn't actually seen anything yet:

But the best part is that Ann Coulter -- yes, our Ann, HUMAN EVENTS legislative correspondent -- is in it. Is it funny? One gent e-mailed me to say that, "Critics are already calling it 'the funniest show ever produced by the FOX News Channel, not counting Geraldo.'"

Pop the corn, pour the wine, sit back and watch. Step aside, libs. It’s our turn.

she is?

guys this has been obvious for YEARS

which is why some people always talk about wanting to fuck her

And then what does that audience get? A few laughs, a few telling jabs, a few comments that hit the mark so well that you'll want to repeat them to your friends. For instance, in the "newscast" segment that dominates the shows, there's a segment about that little rascal, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, saying (and I paraphrase from memory here): "And in other news, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad spoke about the recent Holocaust Denial Conference in Teheran -- and denied that it ever happened. And if it did take place, he said that the number of participants had been greatly exaggerated."

HAR HAR HAR!

Oh good, because you know there ain't shit on TV Sunday night at that time.

But I do think there was a laugh-tracked O'Reilly clip before. Maybe even this one.

I don't understand. What do you mean? What are "comments"?

that joke could be on the daily show easy.

The minute or two I saw during commercials was beneath contempt.

Idi Amin: "i got you a political prisoner but i eated it."

It's the same reason Air America has never turned a profit. Revenge humor is rarely humorous.

Really? their sales staff couldn't do jack and their stupid mgmt didn't replace them?

oh jesus f'in christ, yes, of COURSE, there's obvious publicized evidence that HRC is damn near SLATHERING over the prospect of gaining power, JUST to stack the courts, agencies, and various departments with her praetorian legions of lesbo-cronies. Give me a fucking break.

Of course, this give an amusing image is a southern foghorn leghorn-style senator address a senate panel about "the growing threat of lesbo-cronies in our midst, gentlemen!" like something out of Bloom County.

also, the lesbo joke is mentioned up thread. Where's that image of radical animal rights ecoterrorists that somebody found, with the angry lobster and the unshaven hippie chick w/ a gasoline can?
