Humor today is a dying art. I think its funny Stone got booed in of all places, a Comedy Awards gala.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus

Agreed. Have you noticed that in most stand up acts there are always "jokes" that are merely expressions of politically-correct thought, and the audience chuckles a little...and then APPLAUDS? They're applauding the political point of view, which their weak laughter admits isn't very funny.

Humor should take no sides. These days, all comedians seem interested in making sure the audience knows they hate Bush, and their jokes at the libs are of the "but I love him/her, anyway, and am just laughing at their foibles, which make them loveable" variety.
