Howie was not impressed. Republican perhaps?

I called my local affiliate and left a pretty angry message with my name and phone number requesting a call back when they get in Monday.

Rush is right when he says the sports reporters are even more liberal than the regulars (which is hard to do).

That was gross. Simply gross.

Entertainers have been making fun of US Presidents for a long, long time. Bush isn't the first. Saturday Night Live did numerous skits, portraying Clinton as a womanizing, Big Mac eating country boy, and I don't think anyone around here complained. David Letterman and the rest of the late night talk show hosts made jokes at Clinton's expense too.

Was this bit in bad taste? Probably. Is it treasonous? No.

There are bigger fish to fry, IMO.

He looks more like Bill Clinton than President Bush.

Was it the guy who always impersonates Bush on Leno? If so, he's pretty good. I'm sure even Pres. Bush himself would laugh at the guy.

Yawn......

The same guy did an impression of DeNiro last week. I didn't see any rioting in Tribeca. News flash: People will impersonate and poke fun of the prez, no matter what his party affiliation happens to be.

I didn't see it but I would bet it was Frank Caliendo from Mad TV. He is on there every week, he took over for Jimmy Kimmel. Not the first time he has made Bush jokes. As for Howie Long I would be willing to bet he is a Republican. Howie once commented on Daniel M. Snyder, the owner of the Washington Redskins, stating that he was pretty sure Snyder was a Republican but he was spending money like a Democrat. That was the year the Redskins were trying to buy a Superbowl victory with the likes of Deion Sanders and others.

My computer rejected foxsports I guess my harddrive is sensitive to BS commentary.

The Colts/Steelers game was on CBS, not FOX.

I love W. I defend him every chance I get. I gave my sweat, blood, and treasure to get him into the WH twice. But And let's face it, he isn't very eloquent, and that's a severe understatement. He's an EASY target for satirists.

But let's not turn into whining liberals... lighten up. Satire is free speech and no big deal. It's been going on since Democracy was born.

I can, though, imagine this turned around on the liberals... Can't you just see them calling up the station complaining that we should "stop questioning their patriotism!"

Although extremely inarticulate.......George W. Bush is foxy smart.

If you really want to make fun of some stupid polititians......try Howard Dean, Ted Kennedy, Charles Wrangle, Pelosi and John Conyers.......

Entertainers have been using look a likes to make fun of Presidents at least as far back as Kennedy. Some times these skits are quite funny. Often I think how funny they are is in the eye of the beholder. Those watching Clinton get skewered for his womanizing laugh their asses off, while any humor targeted at Bush draws anger and protest. The guy doing the humor was from Foxes alternative to Saturday Night Life. He played Bush there during the election season. It's an attempt at humor, nothing more. Perhaps a bad attempt. But entertainment nevertheless. Lighten up.
