Why Evan Sayet's Conservative Comedy Tour is Significant
Media Research Center ^ | 5/20/15 | Dan Joseph

Posted on 05/22/2015 6:33:33 AM PDT by cob201

This week, Late Show host David Letterman retired. Letterman was a funny guy. But he was also an unabashed liberal who often ferociously attacked his conservative guests while gushing over prominent liberal politicians and media figures.

Of course, it’s been obvious for quite some time that comedy—whether on television, in film or in the stand-up world—is dominated by liberal voices. But, conservative comedian Evan Sayet is about to change that.

Sayet is a pioneer of conservative stand-up comedy and he’s about to bring his no-holds-barred brand of humor to venues across the country.

The tour opens on May 27th in Phoenix, Arizona and includes stops in Chicago, Boston, New York and Phoenix with a whole host of shows in other cities to be announced soon.

Brent Bozelle's Media Research Center recognizes that this tour that I'm embarking on is more than just a night of "entertainment." As movies like "God is NOT Dead," "Heaven is For Real" and "American Sniper" are putting God and Country and other patriotic and Judeo-Christian messages back in the theaters, my tour is an effort to do the same for the comedy clubs. Over the past many years the Left has "weaponized" comedy and used people like Bill Maher and Jon Stewart to advance their agenda. I have been called the "Bill Maher for the Right" (which makes sense since, when I was still on the Left, I WROTE "Politically Incorrect w/Bill Maher" for many years. I need your support. We need to fill these venues to show the Left that conservative comedians exist and to prove to club owners that hiring conservative comedians is a good BUSINESS decision. Please help me spread the word and please join us -- and bring some friends -- if you're in any of these cities.

Collectively speaking, Leftists are crazy-making Red Queens enslaved by their disordered passions, which is why they are incapable of true reason. Therefore anyone, such as you Evan, who intends resistance (which is noble and courageous) must be ready to withstand not only a constant and withering barrage of ridicule and character destruction (psychological bullying) but be ready to be shunned, hated, written off as dangerously insane, and scape-goated. As an old song goes, “When you walk through the storm hold your head up high and don’t be afraid of the dark. At the end of the storm is a golden sky and sweet sounding song of a lark.” So walk on, Evan, walk on with hope in your heart!

Just please help me spread the word. NO help from Mainstream Media or my old “friends” in late night TV so word-of-mouth is EVERYTHING!

We need a conservative “Saturday Night Live” with conservative minded skits. I think it would be a huge hit!

I live and work in Hollywood.....I’m well aware of their tactics. I’m also the author of The KinderGarden of Eden: How The Modern Liberal Thinks so, again, I get them quite well and am prepared. I have the people and things I care about and don’t need their approval, friendship or anything else.

The Blue Collar Comedy Tour (Larry the Cable Guy, Ron White, Bill Engvall and Jeff Foxworthy) was largely conservative comedy. They just didn’t wear it on their sleeve.

Larry the Cable Guy has since gone full conservative. I even hear him say he bought a Ford truck because they didn’t take any bailout money. The audience cheered, but I don’t know how many of them actually knew it before he said it.

But Bill Maher, jon Stewart, David Letterman (a guy who used to have a TV show), Colbert, etc. DO wear it on their sleeve and they effect the political culture. I do believe we need a “bill maher from the right.”

...true about Blue Collar - but frankly, in his hey day, James Gregory was better than any of them, and definitely conservative. (he’s very old now...or actually he’s aged very poorly....now off his game...but still kicking.)

I’ll do it! Hopefully you can be part of the ‘entertainment’ at any of the upcoming rallies.

That would be great. Say “hi” when you’re at the show!

You are a national treasure sir and until today I had never heard of you. I just watched the evansayet/534 clip on YouTube and it was laugh out loud funny; also politically incorrect which is why it was funny - most truly funny things are also true.
