That last remark comparing torture with the bank robber paying bills didn’t even make sense.
BEST part is she was kind of low brow for Prez Arugula and Lady Armpit.
Just sad. not funny. not knowledgeable. not factual. and yet she’s employed.
I’d rather be in a car with Dick Cheney than Ted Kennedy!
Wanda.....what a waste of air time!
She went over the line on Rush & Sarah!
Thank you for that. I’m going to watch this next!
She’s there to roast Obama and instead she goes after Rush, Hannity and Cheney
Wanda quickly realized there’s nothing funny about this administration.
Bob Franken is an idiot!
LOL
I would get in the car with Dick Cheney too! And he wouldn’t even have to give me candy! haha
A couple W “performances” still stick out in my mind. One was the photo album of “the Bush Family”...where he showed a photo of Jeb when he was young and naked and said, “Ladies and Gentleman, The Governor of Florida” when the photo popped up.
The Bush impersonator, side by side with the “real” Bush was a classic.

Wow, knew Jennifer Loven was an Obama accolyte, didn’t realize she could turn you to stone if you looked at her in person.
A POS called Wanda
Wanda is a real mean liberal.....filled with hatred!
Some on MSNBC say she went over the top on several jokes....too nasty & too partisan!
Well said, Electric Graffiti!
Even MSNBC thought Wanda SUCKED ....figure that one out !!
They knew what they were getting...
She is known for her blunt comedic observations on current events, the differences between the sexes and races, and the human condition.
After college, her first job was as a procurement officer with National Security Agency (NSA), where she worked for five years.
In October 2008, Wanda Sykes appeared in a television ad for the Think Before You Speak Campaign, an advertising campaign by GLSEN aimed at curbing anti-gay rhetoric in youth communities. In the 30 second spot, she uses humor to scold a teenager for saying “that’s so gay” when he really means “that is so bad.”
In March of 2009, it was announced that Wanda Sykes would be the host of a new Late Night Talk Show on Saturdays on FOX. It is expected to premiere in the Fall of 2009.
In April 2009 she was named in Out magazine’s Annual Power 50 List, landing at number 35.
Sykes was married to David Hall from 1991 to 1998. In October 2008 in California she married her female partner, whom she met in 2006, and publicly came out in November at a same-sex marriage rally regarding Proposition 8 in Las Vegas that she is a lesbian and had just married.
She expressed her excitement over the presidential election of Barack Obama, and feeling “crushed” after the passage of Proposition 8, forbidding marriages of same-sex couples in California. She has continued to be active in same-sex marriage issues hosting events and emceeing fundraisers.
I can’t find this on TV. (CSpan 1 and 2 not covering it). What’s Julie Dreyfus looking like?
this had to have been the biggest bomb in terms of content and crowd reaction in a long long long time...the POS Marxist was smug as usualy..even comparing himself to God...saying he will complete the next 100 days in 42 days then rest on the 43rd day....and wanda the lesbo...well way to be original and knock on dick cheney and rush limbaugh and then say the next white president will move the sojourner truth statue to the kitchen..that’s what happens when your career has jumped the shark and no one knows who your are...nor cares...this dinner was 5 stars...assuming each star represents massive amounts of fail...or racism towards white people..
Between Wanda’s disgusting comments and those of Obama, used properly the American Public will landslide the Republicans back in 2010 and 2012! Yah Hoo!
