"I'm not being defensive! You're the one who's being defensive! Why is always the other person who's being defensive? Have you ever asked yourself that? Why don't you ask yourself that?"
I can't remember most of it, and am too lazy to search around for a link, but the funniest part was:

Here’s the CBS orig. version
Years ago, Short had a show of his own, IIRC on CBS. It impressed me as a monument to subversive, edgy humor. This was during the Clinton adminstration... One sketch involved the cover-up of a presidential assassination, in which the Administration substituted a lookalike who just happened to be a hermaphrodite, as the audience learned when a thinly-veiled Hillary confronted her “husband” in the shower. Up came the title: “Not quite the president... not quite a first lady.” Thought I’d bust a gut, and the show was canceled immediately thereafter. Two episodes.
Short is fearless.
