LOVE the perfectly priceless digs at Chrissy, Keithoverbite and Acorn!! Fantastic .. from beginning to end.
God bless Mac and Sarah and our beloved America. Pray, pray, pray .. with all your might... and VOTE.
Obama’s address, it seemed to me, had a bit of a hard, even mean, edge to it.
Pretty hard for someone to emanate good-natured humor when the person's main interest is in his or her self.
While McCain was doing his fantastic routine, Katie looked awfully uncomfortable, particularly when McCain was roasting the media...
LOL! My husband and I noticed that as well...
She sure looked like her funny bone was seriously engaged.
Where WAS Bill???? LOL .........
That was a hoot.
McCain owned the stage. Barack did just fine.
Previous comments about “laughing at his own jokes” and being smug I believe are wool-covered eyes.
I hate the socialist as much as the next guy, but he was funny.
Agreed. McCain's writers and his deliver were definitely better. I guess he won round 4.
McCain can be hysterical... like he was tonight. He's been on Saturday Night Live and the other "late night" shows over the years. I wish we had seen more of this John McCain on the campaign trail...
I agree. At this roast, he seemed a bit ill at ease -- although he did do a credible job for the charity.
Obama looked like a member of the Nation of Islam in that bow tie. He had some funny lines but looked amateurish. McCain was masterful and brilliantly funny.
Voila! You did it...I was waiting for YouTube, and of course,
you are right there with it! :D
Thanks!
He’s trying to fatten up in case OBama wins..
In many of the accounts of the American POW’s held and tortured by the N. Vietnamese in the infamous “Hotel Hilton,” are recollections of McCain being dragged back to his cell by his torturers - but still managing, despite being tortured/beaten terribly, a grin to the other American prisoners he knew were peering through little slits in the cell doors.
That fits so well with what we saw tonight - I believe we saw something that came at least partly from as far back as those five and a half years in that N. Vietnamese hell hole...
That is hilarious!!!!!
Al-baby .. you don’t want to know how much tickets to the Al Smith Dinner cost the participants. It is a fundraiser for Catholic Charities in NY and they make a bundle on it. It is not taxpayer funded.
The SS agents are on duty with the candidates 24/7 whether they are at the Waldorf Astoria, on the road, or in McCain or Obama’s back yard.
So lighten up, put your anger and envy away, and be thankful there are people who can enjoy themselves.
I thought Obama was funnier than Maher has ever been.
He was on fire.
