I can’t wait for the shrieks of bias in comedy. “Comedy has a libtard bias which is why The Corner, Red State and the rest of the tarded ghetto of the intertubes will remain intentionally comedy free!”
So this is how Ken finds all these young interns and ginger writers; boozing up the college kids!
My colon bursts with pride. And cabbage.
I think there was a mixup in the program. I have Ken listed on the panel entitled,
“Make ‘Em Crouch Into a Fetal Position in a Whirlpool of Despair: Promoting Atavism Through Comedy”
Hope you’ll make a long weekend or two of it.
The young are so fucking depressingly earnest. Perhaps they will learn at your feet, but I wouldn’t bet on it.

[re=604176]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Reality has the same liberal bias. Which is why teatards and other conservatives cling so desperately to that special branch of magical thinking known as Christianity.
Are you sure you’re going to be there Ken? Two weeks isn’t very much time to walk all the way across the country.
When is the party for the liberal olds? Oh yeah — we don’t go out any more anyway.
[re=604200]Come here a minute[/re]: Don’t fret — you’ve always got Conan. Oh, wait.
Is the Red State Trike force going to perform? Cause I’d pay money to see that.
While I would normally like to agree that the market for comedy has been cornered by the libtards, I have to concede that without one conservative comedian, I would not be who I am today.
Yes, Michael J. Nelson of Mystery Science Theater 3000 fame…right-winger: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_J._Nelson#Personal_life
Today, we are all liberal youths on a Liberty Death Panel.
[re=604221]PabaBritannica[/re]: I’m sorry to read of his political orientation but Joel Hodgson was way better, IMHO.
the root isnt funny
[re=604221]PabaBritannica[/re]: Maybe it’s the replacement of Dr. Forester & Frank by Pearl that troubles me more.
The Tea Bagger Movement is tailor made for George Carlin. He could have done a three hour HBO special just on that one subject.

I find the equation of firearms and communists deeply offensive.
The one make loud noises, are fun to set off, but are dangerous when pointed in the wrong direction.
The other are protected by the 2nd Amendment.

Don’t forget your lampshade Ken. There is nothing funnier than a drunk with a lampshade on his head.
[re=604193]SayItWithWookies[/re]: What, is Ken worried about his comedy footprint?
Omni Shoreham? Isn’t that a Muslin name?
Aren’t Dane Cook, Phyllis Diller, Charlie Weaver, Sarah Jessica Parker, Rich Little and Bobcat Goldthwait also on the same panel?
[re=604239]american mutt[/re]: Seriously, unless you are someone who thinks overlong articles about why some people find Tyler Perry funny and some people don’t is funny.
Is this really a big deal? I’ve heard of The Onion, never heard of The Root, Info Mania or the Wonkette.
Oh geez, an Wonkette event, Live! In Person! With alcohol! which is something I must attend BUT it is on a weeknight and I am crazy person who gets up at dawn….
