Libbies generally don't have much of a sense of humor, at least it doesn't last too long before they become extremely pissed.

Isn't it wonderful to live in a country where you can bash the president without being arrested and made to disappear?

Maybe the fag mafia on Broadway will have the balls for some real comedy: Spoofing Moohammed.

On the other hand risk taking is dead in the artist community, so they'll take the mundane route an bash Bush.

Yawn.

Ahh... it's so refreshing to continue seeing the self-proclaimed "[Island] City at the Center of the World" continue to marginalize itself into irrelevancy.

"It's enormous all over America, particularly in the south, but not exclusively so," Eric Krebs said of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour. "My sense of 'Laughing Liberally' was to create the equivalent from a smart, liberal political point of view."

... oh, and the self-congratulatory fawning and complete condescension towards your audience always helps to promote the show, too. Keep it up!

The left is imploding before our very eyes. It's quite an impressive sight! ;)

Theater written by trustafarians and performed by waiters.

Yeah, they take shots at Rush Limbaugh every night in a theater seating 1,500. Meanwhile, Rush is handing them their heads every day to an audience of 20 million. I can live with those numbers.

Theater has become a circus, clowns and all.

Absolutely! Look at all the failed attempts the liberals have made trying to outdo Rush. I'm saying "file that under ain't gonna happen"!

Not every night...it's a one-night affair (in five days) and as of now it is not close to being sold out. There are very few off-broadway venues that seat more than fifty. I've seen tons of experimental crap (checking out the actors) in 'theaters' that sat no more than thirty.

Hope the libs got a good belly laugh when Crazy Teddy and Hanoi John's filabuster went bust today---watching the Swimmer stutter and stammer, then turn red when he realizes that the so-called 'Dumb' cowboy from Texas schooled his a$$ on politics once again always cracks me up. Maybe Teddy can get a sledge hammer and bust up some watermelons at the next RAT convention--that'd be a hoot!

I wonder if any of the shows have any decent music? Last December 31, a friend had an extra ticket to "Wal-Martopia". The script was pretty much the expected union-promoted anti-Wal-Mart tripe, but the music was actually pretty decent. Too bad the composer's efforts were spent on a show with a single-mom worker who wines about having to work on Christmas (something the real Wal-Mart doesn't require of its workers).

I hear you. When I lived in NYC, I used to go to the theater sometimes four or five nights a week, which means a fair share of off-offs with production budgets of under $100. Although I, as apparently you also, love live theater, I got to where I had to carefully review everything to at least stay away from the most egregious leftist/homosexual propaganda pieces. The percentage of those keeps rising, but you can still find plenty of good stuff that avoids or at least minimizes the predictable lectures.

Exactly. It got to the point where we had no qualms about standing up and walking out in the middle of the first act when the agenda overpowered the entertainment. It's a powerful statement when the only way out is to pass within inches of the stage.
