Those hosts referred to are working with the material given to them, namely the GOP field. They have given the public a treasure trove of soundbites, images and past political/personal history. Notice the fact that Obama had more jokes levied against him, yet the GOP are still the victims.

When week after week the voters were changing who they preferred, when they clapped at awful statements and when they can’t reconcile what they want except ABO, it grew into a circus. Still is.

But it’s a segment from the FNC so CVS, irony and a detachment from reality are only to be expected.

The candidates are such a joke that some can’t even get on a ballot in VA. And it’s their own voter ID-related laws that led to the four not being included. And one is a resident of the state.

Doesn’t really matter, Bill. If you can stand to watch the late night blooting of those popinjays, you’re probably either liberal or immune to the insipid, mordant, obsequious, spalpeen-like behavior of the midnight Visigoths.

Freedom of speech is one of those things that makes life great, everyone is entitled to an opinion.

I love coming here to read the comments cuz some make my extended family look SANE!

“O’Reilly And Panel: Are Liberal Late-Night Hosts Making The GOP Primary Into A Joke?”

Nope…it’s the GOP that’s making the GOP primary into a joke.

“the jokes about Obama are affectionate; the jokes about Mitt are mean” 

Yea….and that’s because Obama doesn’t give people a reason to be mean….and when he does, he gets it just like anyone else.He’s not a crazy moron,Bill,deal with it.

Don’t blame Obama for being reasonable,or the comedian for being funny,blame the GOP for being crazy,Bill….they provide the material,a LOT of material.

And when you ask “where are the late night conservative hosts” Bill,the answer is there isn’t any, because they’re not funny.Get it?You need to be funny to be a comedian,Bill,get it?

So really, Bill’O,cry me a goddamn river.

I know  for a fact Coulter and Limbaugh’s Half Hour News Hour was getting block busting ratings but the powers that be conspired to manipulate the ratings figures to make it look like a dud and sank it..

We conservatives are also considerably overwhelmed by omnipresent liberal radio in the radio-verse dial that it’s just unfair

Those that are biased can’t see the bias… it doesn’t matter how much evidence there is.  Its like the OJ Simpson trial, which come to think of it was also all about bias.

well where are all of those talented conservative comedians?
oh ya–they are on fox and the are comedians not by choice–they are just so stupid they are funny..
it is not ‘liberal comedians’ making a joke out of the cons..
they do it to themselves..
if they were not so ridiculous and wack–there would be nothing to make fun of..
but this has been a feeding frenzy for comedians..
i know–it really sucks backing a losing team…but hey..you people may be stupid–but at least they are really funny…

u got it ben…
the cons have to actually fabricate things to attack obama…
and the cons just shovel the material to the comedians..
it is almost dosed out intravenously to them..
but i guess when cons actually believed colbert was giving them a compliment—what do you expect from these clowns?
i guess even a pig thinks it smell pretty…

The GOP primary is a joke.

Michele Bachmann was asked if she was a submissive wife. She said no, but her husband is.” —Jay Leno

“Corporations are people. It’s time to remake ‘Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner’ where the daughter brings home an oil rig. You know Spencer Tracy won’t want to see his daughter drilled.” —Stephen Colbert, on Mitt Romney’s declaration that “corporations are people”

“‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ made $54 million this weekend. It’s about small-brained creatures who rise up and take over the Earth. First they form political groups called Tea Parties.” —Jay Leno

“Mitt Romney won the New Hampshire primary. Romney’s win in New Hampshire means that he received seven delegates and a wagon full of maple syrup.” –Craig Ferguson

“The thing I don’t like about Romney is that he’s not funny. For a while, the field was looking promising for late night comedians.” –Craig Ferguson

“Congratulations to Mitt Romney. He won the New Hampshire primary last night. See, this is proof that even the multimillionaire son of a multimillionaire can beat the odds and run for president of the United States.” –Jay Leno

  “Jon Huntsman finished third … and he said he’s happy with the momentum he gained this week. You know it’s got to be fun being a politician. You can spin everything. … Your plane is crashing and you’re saying, ‘We’re happy to be landing ahead of schedule.’” –Jay Leno

How can you not?  The GOP field is a circus.

“Ron Paul said he’s ‘nibbling at mitt Romney’s heels.’ At 76 years old, I hope somebody’s cutting Romney’s heels into bite-sized pieces for him.” –Craig Ferguson

put away your thesaurus…we’re impressed already

and lighten up, by the way

Republicans are such insecure whiners – O’Reilly laments that there are few influential media personalities but they’re all liberal, while chanting daily that he himself is the most watched, most influential media personality out there. Same with Rush Limbaugh, who whines about the ‘Liberals’ predominating the TV and airwaves, all the while egotistically opining that he’s the most influential political entertainment media personality in the country. I wish Republicans had enough conviction in their ideals to stop crying wolf all the time that they’re unfairly portrayed by the media.

I think the sanctimoniousness of many conservatives makes them an irresistable target.

Bill: ya think?

Is the presidential race a joke?

YES- and that is more a reflection on the current GOP candidates then it is the race itself
Mitt Romney-The one who literally seems to embody everything about politics that no one can stand, changes issues for votes, seems insincere, plastic smile, born into money, comes across as someone who can’t be trusted to your dishwasher much less the country

Newt-Ethics issues the last time he was in power, claims to be a social conservative despite his practice of doing the total opposite, wanting the president to be able to control the judicial branch

Herman Cain-Mr. 999 never gaffed on Libya, couldn’t seem to get past 999, someone who put his marriage up as something people should strive for but ended up having multiple sexual harassment claims and allegations

Bachmann- the butcher of historical facts if there ever was one, the revolutionary war, the founding fathers on slavery, getting the wrong adams, using the CBO to justify one position while calling them liberal when their data didn’t support another

Santorum- The one who thinks the govt one some level has a right to control your sexuality and thinks homosexuals are the same as bestiality. There’s also that slight google problem

Rick Perry-He can’t even remember which departments he wants to eliminate

Takeaway: Liberal or conservative you would have to be in denial or naive if, as a comedian, you didn’t see this as a goldmine of material, the GOP has no one to blame but themselves for this incredibly weak field. The GOP candidates want to be respected and not be made fun of they might want to consider the consequences of their statements and actions in the future and possibly conduct some basic research prior

Is Obama harder to make fun of then Bush Jr?

DUH- The comedy world has been spoiled by W and Clinton before him. Between W’s butchery of the English language and questionable scandals that took place in his administration, massive US firings, CIA agent being ousted, and using the exact same torture on enemies that the US considered WAR crimes at one point, just to name some, and Clinton being the first president in over a century to be impeached for lying about blowjob in the white house, Comedians have literally had the better part of 20 years of easy stuff.

Obama’s just harder to make fun because he does have a grasp of language so he doesn’t sound like and idiot and hes not a horn dog. It has nothing to do with political affiliations, it has everything to do with comedic value and in comparison to his recent predecessors Obama simply has conducted himself in a better manner that doesn’t necessarily lend itself  to comedy nearly as often

Why no conservative comedians?

Personally it seems that

1. if your a liberal comedian you have alot more material to pick from

2. people as a whole always like to push the envelope in comedy i think and you can’t do that as well i think if your a conservative comedian because there are some lines you don’t cross

3. political affiliations aside, Jon Stewart, Colbert, Letterman, Kimmel, they are just effective comedians, they know how to make people laugh and they get ratings and those are the most important things with any TV show at least initially so you don’t get yanked off the air

Are Liberal Late-Night Hosts Making The GOP Primary Into A Joke? No, by putting forward people like Bachmann, Santorum and Gingrich as serious contenders to be their nominee for president the GOP have done a pretty good job of doing that on their own,

If you don’t want people making jokes, how about trying to get behind the guys who could do a good job, rather than those who hate the right group of people?

ahahahHAHAHAH
Keep whinin’ – the new generation will TRASH republicans…that is until they become them

Exactly.  We’ve had:
Herman Cain – the pizza man, sexual harassment accusations, 9-9-9 (which sounds like a pizza deal), quoting Pokemon,…
Rick Santorum – the Google problem
Michelle Bachmann – misstatements galore and Marcus
Rick Perry – incompetent, confirms a liberal stereotype that Texans are loud mouthed fools
Newt Gingrich – old, 3 wives & an affair

The other candidates don’t/haven’t suffered as badly because they’re just more boring:
Ron Paul – a little “off”
Jon Huntsman – polling badly
Mitt Romney – rich

If the Republican party hadn’t entertained so many of the candidates in the first group, and hadn’t stretched out this nomination process with so many debates, there would be less fodder.  By the way, one of the biggest sources of ridicule was Donald Trump, who kept up this “I might run” bullshit, which FoxNews happily entertained, and continues to entertain, to get ratings.

Nope da GOP Primary Is Making Itself Into A Joke? These guys are a JOKE! F’n Ass-Clowns!

Don’t forget Palin,Cain,and Trump(!?!)….all front runners in the polls, during last year.

I mean seriously,even I could make a living as a comedian with these morons,and I’m not funny.

Alan Colmes is a weasal.  Trash talks Republicans and many are influenced by him.

Um, no.  Those would be the candidates making it into a joke.

I like Sarah Palin’s Numbskull comment. I never would have guessed that Bil-O would call her a lib.

oh pleeze…..its all rite wing nut job radio ie rush limpballs…insanity hannity….jerk levine…and on and on

amen to that!!!!!!

The problem with the GOP field is they have been forced to pander to the extreme right wing of their party. Once they go there, the press simply asks questions which go even further, but are still logical extensions of their original positions. They are scared to clarify there position for fear of offending the far right. As a result, their positions are extremely hypocritical and bordering on lunacy. I have been waiting for more than 25 years for the Republican party to see their right wing has no clothes. All the polls show Obama losing to a “Republican” candidate. The problem they have is the “Republican” candidate does not exist because every candidate must pander to the wingnuts.

“Seventy-six percent of people polled thought that Mitt was short for mittens. I’d vote for him if his name was Mittens Romney. Other nations would fear us for being so adorable.” –Craig Ferguson

This GOP race is heating up with the intensity of an Easy-Bake Oven.” –Jimmy Kimmel

“Ron Paul finished second. … Paul says if he can sustain those kind of numbers … and if his message continues to resonate … and if Mitt Romney gets hit with a dump truck, he could still win this thing.” –Jimmy Kimmel

“Fidel Castro posted a blog entry this week titled ‘The Best President.’ Castro thinks a robot would do a better job than President Obama. And if Mitt Romney wins, that could happen.” –Jimmy Kimmel

“With all due respect, Castro, we tried the robot thing here in California. And it didn’t work out.” –Jimmy Kimmel

“I’m having trouble warming up to Mitt Romney. He looks like the guy in the restaurant that comes to your table to make sure everything’s all right.” –David Letterman

“After Iowa and New Hampshire, Mitt Romney’s campaign is now two for two. After his performance last night, Rick Perry’s campaign merchandise is now two for one.” –Jimmy Fallon

“Yesterday Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stopped by the White House. There was an awkward moment when they tried to adopt President Obama.” –Conan O’Brien

“In a speech, Ron Paul described himself to the crowd as ‘dangerous.’ Yeah, then one of his handlers fed him some warm milk through an eye dropper and he fell asleep in a shoebox.” –Conan O’Brien

“Nation, unless you live in a cave, I’m sure you’ve heard that yesterday’s New Hampshire primary was won by Mitt Romney. And if you do live in a cave, I’m guessing you voted for Ron Paul.” –Stephen Colbert

”Of course, a lot of right wingers are very upset about this because they believe this health care bill will cost a lot of money. You know what I think? Just pretend it’s another unnecessary war. You’ll feel better about it already.” —Jay Leno

”If conservatives get to call universal healthcare ‘socialized medicine,’ I get to call private, for-profit healthcare ‘soulless, vampire bastards making money off human pain.”’ —Bill Maher

To O’Reilly’s question: No. The candidates are making the GOP primary a joke. They’re providing the material. Late night hosts are mining it for the comedy. And there’s a lot to be mined.

Also…how ridiculous, this right-wing BS about how much better Obama’s coverage was in 2008!! The Obama campaign was a well-oiled machine, and the candidate was polished, prepared and rarely made a misstep. The McCain campaign, on the other hand, was a train wreck. OF COURSE the Obama campaign received less negative coverage.

It’s a tried and true right-wing strategy. Lie at every turn, and if anyone in the main stream media DARES to call out the lies, they’re immediately an example of the “liberal bias” in the media. Genius, really. Disingenuous. I’ll even inject a little hyperbole and call it evil. But evil genius.

I remember when Dennis Miller was actually funny but nowadays he just sounds angry.

Can some one tell me how you can something that already is a joke in to a joke?

Between Ron Paul’s craziness, Rick Santorum’s fundamentalism, and Newton’s desperation (Mitt Romney speaks French people!), this thing could not be any more of a circus.

They’re not turning it into a joke, they are simply giving commentary to the joke that already exists.. and YOU ALL know it.

I love when Teatards regurgitate the “Word of the Day” from BillO’s show in their posts.   Unfortunately, BillO doesn’t emphasize proper usage as shown in Glove’s attempt to appear “read”.  

I realize you probably omitted Michele because she is not longer actively campaigning. However, she was simply bat shit crazy as reflected by her closet queen husband.

Yeah. Blame it on “liberal late night hosts” and not your clown candidates.

I have been a Republican for more than 30 years. However, I guess you could call me a RINO because I do not want government in my bedroom or sending our young men and women off to fight in some religious, civil war.

This is so, so simple, even for the likes of Bill “Tides go in, tides go out” O’ldieguy.  

First, as to evolution:  

1. No Roger Ailes, no Fuppet News.  
2. No Fuppet News, no CNN going lost.
3. No CNN  going lost, no msm culture insanity.  
4. No msm culture insanity, no TDS with Jon Stewart.
5. No TDS with JS, no The Colbert Report, & neither Jimmy gets his own show.  

Next, as to brain function:

It’s not that there’s no such thing as ‘conservative humor’; it’s that conservative humor doesn’t encompass either irony or parody, nor does it provide much scope for satire.  

There’s science supporting this: the conservative brain lacks empathy & the capacity for self-effacement.   

Cannot-Resist bonus:  

I defy anyone to go to & thru the entire mother lode of unintentional humor that is the Fuppet News Channel & find a bigger doofus than Steve Doocy.  

Was he accusing the democrats of spalpeein the GOP punchbowl?  Those rascals!

LOL. Bitter much?

None of the Gloves “x” Donahues incestuous family of trolls can “lighten up”. They’re like the Borg. 

Yup, and Katharine Hepburn’s gossipy, art gallery assistant comments on it’s color and size, getting herself fired.

O’Reilly is such a sad hack – yeah, it’s the liberalmedia who put Trump and Cain as candidates.

Comedians make more jokes about conservative politicians because they are pompous pricks and can’t take a joke, therefore its a lot more fun to take them down a notch.  Its always been that way.  Has nothing to do with which end of the political spectrum they are on, and contrary to what Ben Stein says, this is not a Hollywood conspiracy. If people liked to laugh at liberals, there would be plenty of outlets.  Look at every attempt by Fox to do a comedy show, they have all failed miserably.  This is all about O’Reilly being upset that he is the butt of so many jokes.  He fits the mold perfectly, he is pompous, a bully, and has no sense of humor.  Therefore, he is the perfect target for comedians.  The only thing he would hate more is if he was ignored.  

Conservatives rolling out the victim card? Knock me over with a feather.

To borrow from Monty Python: You’re a loony, is what you are. Wingers rule the talk radio airwaves.

And those “block” busting ratings for the likes of Coulter & Limbaugh are from the same polluted cup drawn from a larger, still minority pool of ignorant bigoted mostly-old white folks, living out the balance of their pathetic lives in regret & resentment.

Good luck making a joke about me. I’m about as funny as grandma’s funeral.

They are the new “victim society” along with Christians.

He was never funny. He’s always been a bitter hack.

Oddly, Bill does’nt get it, or the very real possibility that he is part of the problem.  If Bill thinks he’s being percieved badly, he’s quickly booked on the very shows he’s complaining about, to give his side of the story.  You’d think one of these extremely wealthy corporations, that are people too, would find a couple conservative humorists and buy them a late night show.  They could pay for the show with what they don’t pay in taxes.

The solution to O’Reilly’s problem would be for the GOP to have serious candidates running for president.

This is the most pathetic crop of candidates for the GOP in a long time.  In the past, the GOP has been able to choose between at least 2-3 strong candidates.  

In this case, you have only one candidate who has put together a solid campaign organization (and he’s not really a strong candidate).  

The other problem is that you have people like Hermain Cain, Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, and Newt Gingrich who are running  (or who flirt with running) for the purpose of selling books.

O’Reilly is a poor joke. 
Obviously he is distraught by the conservative in his party.

I think they reflect currnet neo-con thought perfectly.
Perfect idiots.

No, its the GOP that is making the PRIMARY A BIG, VERY BIG JOKE. A bad joke considering the seriousness of the subject. To elevate to a recommendation to be President of the US, such obviously, flawed unfit candidates  is an insult to the american people and shameful for the GOP/TPARTY. But, that is really what it is all about. The GOP mocks democracy, finds it inefficient and unwieldy, so it would replace it with the brutal TPARTY NATION of ONE PARTY RULE, with corporate america writing the laws to benefit business, while reducing the PPL TO serfdom or pawns in their games for world wide ECONOMIC gains/dominance. It is always the extremes that do harm; The Prohibition Party gave us some of the most miserable times in US history from 1919 to 1933 when booze was oulawed. The Moral Majority gave us Ronald Reagan and TRICKLE DOWN ECONOMICS which has failed the american people and enriched a few. And then there is the hateful, mean spirited, selfish TPARTY NATIONALISTS who would take our democracy backwards into an era of CLASS Divide, where the rich were few but powerful, govt was corrupt and dysfunctional on the state and federal levels. The TPARTY would return this nation to tribalism, where survival of the fittest was societal norm and workers were slaves, indentured servants or serfs. But, they were not FREE. The TPARTY NATION embraces the idea that women are second class citizens, and unable to make decisions about their health or reporductive abilities. The TPARTY NATION is so arrogant as to think it can tell all women how they can conduct themselves sexually. The TPARTY NATION thinks it can dictate to married couples how they can conduct themselves in the bedroom. But most of all the TPARTY NATIONALISTS would rather see 300 mn people suffer needlessly,to make OBAMA fail. That is the real disgrace. As is R  Mike O’Neil clearly indicates, that is the MANTLE OF SHAME the GOP embraces.

No it wasn’t – at least not the way you imply.  

The key move in the aquittal of OJ in the OJ #1: The Murders Trial, was when LA DA Gil Garcetti determined to move the trial out from the locale of the killings, & the home of both the accused & the victims, Santa Monica, & into the L.A. Court House. That move critically altered the context & the jury pool (which trial attorneys will tell you is the single most important variable) & brought into the play the decades of racial abuses on the black citizens of L.A. by the LAPD, which by state charter of independence & developmental history was a rogue force in the Greater L.A. back at least into the early years of the Great Depression.   There were other factors: The Santa Monica court house was too small to accommodate the demand for press passes; it was under renovation at the time; Garcetti was up for reelection, with that being critically dependent on how black voters viewed him & the job he was doing; the original chief trial prosecutor had a heart attack & had to be replaced by a couple of prosecutors who were able enough in their own comfort zones but would never be ready for prime time; for altruistic reasons (for money to fund their Innocence Project), the two eastern U.S. law profs who were experts in DNA took the job of stripping the credibility out of the pivotal prosecution forensic evidence; and more. But the big reason was the change of venue.

Bitter? No. I am relieved that the vast majority of Iowans did not fall for her little charade. 

AWW boo hoo, billo is upset.

I agree with you about Conservative comedy. ther is an exception or two(very hard to find) For instance.”Anyway, no drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of
society. If we’re looking for the source of our troubles, we shouldn’t test
people for drugs, we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love
of power”. -P. J.
O’Rourke

I’m with ya’….for some reason I thought you were talking about Michele Obama.

The honest answer to O’ Reilly’s question would have to be…..NO.  Howere, the GOP primary is a joke.  The GOP primary is composed of 2 very corrupt elements.  The first being those who are running for president.  This element is composed of liars and self serving opportunists who have absolutely no personal integrity whatsoever.  The second element is the GOP electorate.  This is composed of very stupid people who will typically vote for any pathetic waste of skin who will come along and try to espouse the the twisted skewed views of the electorate.  Those views are a combination of twisted skewed right wing extremist views that do not even cross pathways with reality, mixed with twisted skewed religious views that justify just about any henous act in the name of God or Jesus.  When you put it all together, you get a huge joke.  One that is a result of making a deal with the devil by idiots who put political party ahead of country.  No Bill….late night television programming or liberal programming is not turning the GOP primary into a joke.  You and your kind are doing a fine job of that all on your own.

Oh good grief …  

Colmes is a fictional character; he’s not a liberal liberal, he’s a “Fuppet News liberal”, filling a  caricature envisioned by Roger Ailes. Looking skinny, weak, sallow, malnourished, dweeby, four-eyed, passionless & spineless, he’s what Ailes wants you & all the other 2 million ignorant bigoted white folks carring a suitcase of regret & resentment to think of AS the ‘classic liberal’ – so long as you & they don’t actually switch channels at some point & actually watch REAL liberals at work.  

You really should consider investing in something a little more diverse than a single-channel cable package.

It’s been said but I’m saying it, too – it’s the GOP’s candidates who are Making The GOP Primary Into A Joke.

It has been very entertaining to watch the 1212 election unfold.
Thank You GOP!
I knew you were good for something……………..
Laughs,shits and giggles

Racist

Cheese with that whine, Bill?

If it were a joke, it would be funny.  In reality, it’s just getting predictably, tedious.

Wonderful that we don’t have ‘private, for-profit’ food production, right ?

That’s true, & I think it goes a little deeper in the pscyhe of The American People. The mien American voter self-describes as a “conservative”, but actually supports predominantly liberal government programs, so has the concept in mind of a Generic Republican who somehow resolves that conflict for him or her. But not only does no Generic Republican exist (any more than nordic Jeebus magically transmorgified from a scrawny Jewish mystic who made his living begging for food & shelter from prostitutes & the ignorant, diseased, dirty poor in exchange for telling unorthodox simplistic but comforting stories loosely based on one quite minor & infrequent alleged characteristics of the Jewish ubergod idea), no actual Republican politician has ever been able to to provide that impossible reconciliation (tho Sunny Ronny Reagan, early-dementia-addled B-movie actor & corporate shill, certainly SEEMS to come as close as possible to that impossible ideal, at least if you listen to old white Republicans). 

No, it is the GOP that is shameful, that it would produce such a slate of unfit candidates for President of the US. It is an insult to the american people and to the GOP faithful who still love their country. But, then again the GOP/TPARTY has as Mike O’Neil (R) demonstrated embraces it MANTLE OF SHAME in order to defeat Obama. It will let 300 mn people suffer to achieve a political goal. That is the real JOKE, about as bad as you can get.

Only on the SNL weekend update.
But Dana Carvey did Dennis Miller better than Miller did.

Look at every attempt by Fox to do a comedy show, they have all failed miserably.

The most miserable failure perhaps being ‘The Simpsons’ ?

Let us prey!

The honest answer to O’ Reilly’s question would have to be…..NO.  Howerer, the GOP primary is a joke.  That much has been apparent for a very long time.  The GOP primary is composed of 2 very corrupt elements.  The first being those who are running for president.  This element is composed of liars and self serving opportunists who have absolutely no personal integrity whatsoever.  The second element is the GOP electorate.  This is composed of very stupid people who will typically vote for any pathetic waste of skin who will come along and try to espouse the the twisted skewed views of the electorate.  Those views are a combination of twisted skewed right wing extremist views that do not even cross pathways with reality, mixed with twisted skewed religious views that justify just about any henous act in the name of God or Jesus.  When you put it all together, you get a huge joke.  One that is a result of making a deal with the devil by idiots who put political party ahead of country.  No Bill….late night television programming or liberal programming is not turning the GOP primary into a joke.  You and your kind are doing a fine job of that all on your own.

Oh use your heads, of course they lean left. Are you going to defy gravity as well?

Here’s the way the corrupt medi operates:

The “I Like To Fire People” SMEAR besmirched the reputation of every journalist and politician who
knowingly took misrepresented
Romney’s intent on it.

It should not, as most pundits are spewing
forth, be incumbent upon the candidate to watch their every move,
anticipating the duplicity with which the mainstream media will
characterize it.

That’s an indictment of the low-rent media personalities (and GOP candidates)!

If you are a registered republican, then you are still a joke.

surely you jest-the candidates getting out of the clown car made themselves fodder for the late
night comics-no one could have created such a sorry bunch out of one’s imagination-as I have
always said truth is not only stranger than but more entertaining than fiction-and the show goes on

If all the writers are LIBERAL does that mean that conservatives don’t know how to write jokes????

Yup…

*drink*

I was referring to FOXNews.  For example, the 1/2 hour news hour.  
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwCR4EyajBQ  Neither Fox TV or the Simpsons take a conservative slant, which is why people will watch it.

Pretty much too uptight.

cheers

cheers buddy

Hahahahha! Bill O’Reilly, yer so funnneeeaaayy!

The candidates are a joke, silly! They create comedy every time they open their idiot mouths! 

I think a few liberals may have been involved in writing The Simpson’s.

are the Late Night Hosts making the GOP Primary into a Joke??? No The GOP Candidates ae doing a fine enough job on their own.

O’Reilly does Ferguson a disservice to dump him into any one political viewpoint. He is nothing like the other late night comedians. Craig’s a thoughtful guy, and likes to learn about all sides of a thing. Craig once stated the following while discussing becoming an American citizen: “the philosophy of many right wing people and left wing people — I agree with large tracts of both of them. Which I became fascinated by. And to this day, I refuse to take a political stance on the show for the sake of Hollywood or for the sake of anti-Hollywood. I’ll try and sail my own path.”

If you actually watch his show, you’ll see he does take jabs at both sides of the aisle, but mostly at government in general. He’s probably the only one of the group to have ever actually *defended* Sarah Palin. Sure, you can probably find more jokes about Republicans, if you’re into keeping a tally, but right now that’s who’s making news, and let’s be honest… it’s been a target-rich environment. Craig’s jokes are not in any way meant to be mean or hurtful – he’s not that kind of person – and it kind of offends me to see him lumped in with all of those other clowns.

And bright enough not to say RHINO.

Turrets?

FoxNews is crying about the media turning its candidates into jokes?  So they’ve officially moved on from saying they were actually great candidates just the media is bias against to “OK, I know this looks bad but, it’s the media’s fault!”

Meh. The GOP primary has been a joke from day one. Surprised it’s taken O’Reilly this long to notice.

GEEZ!

This Lead hasn’t changed yet?

What are you guys – & gals – all wattching the thrashing N.O.’s i taking?

The GOP did it to them selves with there war on knowledge.

This is the top comment of the thread.

Who would have thought, dialectic materialism bites Fox in the buttocks

O’Really is the right wing comedian, so keep on talking so we can keep on laughing

Even I try not to make fun of the GOP field and I’m actually a part of it.  Good thing I could say anything with a straight face,

“Anyone on this stage could do a better job than president Obama.”

“You’re fired.”

“Don’t worry kids, Seamus will be just fine on the roof.”

We heard you the first time.

Succintly put.  I laugh when media personalities talk about the media as if they aren’t part of the problem.

What’s with all the double posts?

Comon. did Jay Leno say that? It’s funny and all but sounds awfully political for Jay.

Seven little words for ya: I can see Russia from my house. 

Isn’t Dennis Miller thre only right wing comic?

The problem isn’t late night hosts by a loooonnnngggg shot. The problem is that our political process has become a joke and so obviously superficial that that the jokes pointing out that truth make us laugh, and make us extremely un comortable. Rightfully so. We are filled with the rants of political pundits who become wealthy not bu actually informing us about relevant important facts , but by playing tro our emotions and feeding into the divisive poltical stereotype of us {Americans} vs them {Americans}

Not to change the subject but where is my gal Michelle-In-Utah??  Ahhh maybe banned for the 100th time.

No one likes wars.

who the hell is Bill O’Reilly? And why should I care?

Oh, pardon me. Website was giving me errors and I didn’t see it posted. 

Why, yes, I do have a turret. They make such a nice architectural statement.

happeneded to several,posters evidently

What would be the biggest joke, if it was not so sad and pathetic, that there is no Democratic primary.

Sad that there is not a single Democrat who has the spine to challenge this most unqualified hack.
Sad that there is not a single Democrat with the wisdom of the child that saw that the Emperor had no clothes.

Pathetic is their delusion that they can win with this clown.

Sorry, was told there was systems error and to repost later. Had no idea it was duplicating posts.

It is a BIG JOKE. Probably the biggest and most funny joke i’ve ever heard. the GOP look like a 4th grade SPED class.

the people who make money off of profitable wars LOVE WARS. and is truely the backbone of any war now.

my bad let me ask myself a question. is there ever a war thats not profitable for someone? 

just because most of our free lovin hippies are now the old republicans that are complete opposites of what they were protesting about during vietnam. does not mean every generation grows up into a republican. I for one will never be, quote me on that,

oh man…. he got thrown in jail cause he was BLACK, not cause he did anything wrong like murder….we’re all about being Bias towards non whites. throw um all in jail!

your completely wrong about how anyone could of done a better job then Obama. If you were not so blind maybe you could tell how much better were doing compared to the last republican we had in office for longer then we voted him in for.

It’s hard to make something out of nothing.  The GOP primary race is a huge joke which O’Reilly just doesn’t get.  These clown candidates give late night so much material they don’t know where to start!!

 Yeah, because everyone knows “the powers that be” absolutely HATE ratings and the money they generate.

The corrupt media is owned by corrupt corporations who have other interests to protect and make properous through the buying and selling of poltivcal influence and policy from corrupt politicians.

clearly a system glitch.

  “maybe you could tell how much better were doing compared to the last
republican we had in office for longer then we voted him in for.”

ROFL! These candidates make Bush look positively cerebral.  I’m highly amused that O’Reilly et al. are whining about the liberal media, when it’s their candidates that have given them all the material they could want!  The hilarious stupidity of this set of R candidates has made this an historical election.  The international community actually tunes into every word, for fear of missing the comedy entertainment.

And the ultimate irony? That O’Reilly is whining about the liberal media after the likes of Limbaugh, Beck, Palin, Hannity.  What a whiner.

Seriously? Who are we offering that can or will beat him. All the retoric in the world will not cause a victory. The dem’s are confident because we have been showboating quiters, liars, fools, ingnorant, greedy, self-interested (I could go on but you get it) candidates. They have made themselves fodder for jokes. Redirecting to the Dem’s not having someone to go against him is the stuff that makes their jokes. Why haven’t we come up with a viable candidate? The good ones or sane ones would be demonized as to moderate. No matter who we offer the masses will go to the booth and vote for the devil they know vs the devil they don’t. He will win by default!!

No, no.  See, Bachmann’s mother named her Michele because Michelle has the word HELL in it.  True story…..I’ve now demonstrated where Bachmann got her fringiness from, kk? So just remember, Michelle Obama has 2 L’s in Michelle because..well…her mother is normal.

Listen, I remember back in the campaign season of ’08, people couldn’t wait to get home and watch the news to see what new incredibly stupid thing Palin had said that day.    Because there WAS something new every day.  And O’Reilly wonders why the R party candidates get so much negative press?

The GOP circus is so funny that Sarah Palin did not compete and we didn’t even miss her!  Talk about material. 
I mean, Bachmann dropped out but we still have Perry and Santorum to provide entertainment. Now, that’s a deep bench!

I’m with you.  Its not the liberal media that’s making the Republican candidates, primaries a joke.  You just can’t ignore R.Perry desperately clutching at straws to make him seem like he’s got  a chance to win the nomination.   Two of the clowns are gone, Caine and Bachman.  Gingrich stating ghetto kids, read black, should be subject to changes in child welfare laws.  Santorum saying he said blahhhh instead of what most of us heard, black.  etc. Ron Paul not owning up; to his racist, judeophobic paper.   The only thing that would  tp this nonsense is Rupaul be confused with Ron Paul

The biggest joke is O’Reilly referring to AM radio as a news source.

Bottom line is O’Reilly does not believe the electorate is capable of thinking for themselves eh?

“Eh”?  LOL  Where are you from Canada, or Upper Peninsula of Michigan, eh?

LOL  

Truthfully, JOHN MASON, I have come to believe that a significant plurality is not qualified to cast a vote.  Yet, our Constitution guarantees that right.

The real question is how to provide unbiased knowledge to the electorate so that a “vote” may be cast with appropriate substance of validity?

Do you believe America provides enough “unbiased knowledge,” to create a well informed citizenry?

Purveyor

A “system glitch”?  Finally, you notice this place is full of silly Lefties?

LOL

The GOP are pathetic. The primary proved what assinine idiots they really are. Only a fool would vote for a gop to be in charge.

I am disappointed to say so, but, the GOP primary may be a “joke.”  Moreover, such has NOT engendered any semblance of self respect, or mutual respect with the electorate.  In, fact I have stopped paying attention.  A steady diet of platitudes, becomes tedious to an intellect such as mine.

Anyway, late night talk show hosts may helped with this phenomenon, however, the GOP is doing a fine job, on their very own!

Purveyor

Why?

That was flawless.

AM radio is not news but merely talk show opinions which is not news, unless you consider an Op Ed section of any newspaper to be news Fox Bot!

Don’t want to get made fun of GOP? Then stop promoting a bunch of clowns and dumb*sses.

Liberal propaganda my ass.  If it is Liberal comedians imposing Thought Control on American society today, where is the Conservative satire exposing it?          

I don’t think it was new voter ID laws which led to the candidate problems in Virginia. If you have a link to such, please post it.

Exactly so. Platitudes accomplish nothing, and therefore lose any meaning.

The GOP has been providing the straight men, the Bud Abbots, so the standup comics can be Lou Costello.
Are they really down to only two Stooges?

Willard was giving us an example of lying with a straight face. ;-)

Comic? oh that ‘s what he is suppose to be.

See how good I am at it? Bret fell for it. So will many other Americans.

Go Hollywood!

I’ve had a look at old footage of Miller, and he was (IMO) never funny. He “invented” the rant and has been much copied for that particular variety of comedic turn, but actually funny? Not so much.

Do you mean lefty platitudes like the “rich don’t pay their fair share.” Or perhaps, “Republicans want to feed dog food to old people” or “push granny off a cliff.” 
How about this current leftwing favorite, “Corporations are not people.”  A favorite among African-American politicians these days is “Republicans want blacks hanging on a tree.” We will hear these, and many other nonsense and nasty platitudes from Democrat candidates during the next 10 months.

4ept Bo36mm,

My adherence to neutral principle leads me this conclusion, and, to admit it despite my political inclinations.

Alas, as did Diogenes, I wander the streets of Athens, looking for “an honest man.”

Curious, isn’t it, the strictures of “neutral principle” are really nothing more than “don’t lie, cheat or steal, and don’t throw the bat when you strike out…

I became involved, heavily, in the thread about the Marines urinating on dead bodies.  Considering your background my comments and retorts might be of interest?  If so, let me know what you think of the various discourse?

Vaya con Dios

Not true. Colmes says he’s a liberal, so he’s a liberal.

He’s opposed to all wars, etc.

I know he’s a real liberal, because I disagree with him quite a bit (I consider myself a center-left moderate)

Yes, when he was on Fox News, he could rightly be termed a “stooge” for the rightwingers to play off of. But once he got good at it, he was deported to radio.

You can download the first 10 minutes of his show everyday on itunes for free. It’s fun to listen to him slap down right wingers who have been listing to crazy rightwing radio all day.

Give Alen a break. He’s a good guy. (I actually prefer listening to him than watching him)

He was actually funny when he was on SNL and HBO (ok maybe it was his writers).

Then he saw how easy it was to wind up the rightwing nuts and make a sweet living off their personality disorders.

In 8 years, I never heard him say a single critical thing about George W Bush.

Which should be enough to discredit him for anyone left, right or center.

But this type of stringent selling out is a cancer to the humor bone because once you have your empathy surgically removed you never get it back.

“Fox Bot”?

I asked you a very simple question.  That you could not answer such without using an insulting colloquialism says more about YOU, than it does about me.

In fact, such demonstrates a weak mind and fear, yes, “fear.”  I’ll be keeping an eye on your posts, EDDYTHECAT.  One of my forms of entertainment is humiliating fooles.

(the final “e” in the word “foole,” in respect for the late George Carlin)

The Purveyor of Rhetoric

“Notice the fact that Obama had more jokes levied against him, yet the GOP are still the victims.” Are you on crack? Anyone who paid any attention to the news knew that any and all jokes against Obama were harmless pokes where as Sara Palin was mauled by the media.

There’s a difference between making a joke and laughing at a joke, Bill.

Wow, how highbrow!

The GOP, thanks to extreme right wing anti-intellectual mentality foisted on them by their moron media, seems to be a fertile ground for such spectacular idiots like Palin, Perry, Cain etc to flourish. Then when those types are rejected by just about anyone else with a brain, they go into “blame the liberal media” mode to re-assure their mouth breathing, barely literate base that everything wrong is someone else’s fault.

He was and occasionally still is funny. And most comedians tend to be angry. But for someone who likes to go on about how show business hates cons so much, he rebooted his career by going right and becoming O’Reilly’s sidekick

To a fanatic and a hack, it is always someone else’s fault

Here is an idea that might help presidential elections. Schedule all the primaries on two or three days. After all, we all vote for the president on the same day. Why are we letting insignificant little states like NH, SC or Iowa have so much weight? These places only encourage the nuts.

Don’t remember any Democratic candidates repeating or running on any of those points. Sorry but most of the ridiculous nonsense seems to be coming from the right these days

…..”Sara Palin was mauled by the media.”
 Rightfully so too.
She’s IS an idiot.

The trouble is the cons get great ratings, but their audience is the least intelligent and influential, just a bunch of stupid cranks and retired biddies

If we applied that prototype we would lose most of our leaders.
And I say “good riddance”.

Yeah, after all, what sane person would suspect that a husband might murder his wife and her lover?

He is a liberal for sure. But he is not very swift and predictably knee jerk

BOOOO HOOO HOO.
The liberal media (that are owned by “liberal” corporations I am guessing)  won’t endorse my racist and backward neanderthal candidate’s ravings.

The same way they played the race card when Cain flamed out. The exact same people who spent the last 20 odd years complaining about people playing the race card

Platitude: a flat, dull, or trite remark, especially one uttered as if it were fresh or profound.
Those who ran only on platitudes have already dropped out. I’m referring to Bachmann, Palin, Pawlenty, Cain, and Trump. Those Republican candidates who remain still have far too many platitudes in their “platforms.” Those platitudes refer to Christian faith, Christian values, etc. They are platitudes because they are not “fresh and/or profound” when used in politics. They are mere emotional trickery. (See multiple examples from Newt Gingrich as the most abusive user of “Do as I say, not as I do.”

I will take a look at the Marines thing, but I consider it to be a misdemeanor along the lines of a mild college hazing in that it is stupid and “unprofessional” but most of all, it is not to be shared with the general public, and  it is certainly not to be condoned, permitted, or encouraged.

How does your pencil neck support your fat head?

Stephen
Colbert is a comedian, and the other Republican candidates are bad jokes. Pat
