#5 I have to admit - I think the Left will always be better at comedy, which isn't such a tragedy, because the Right will always dominate when it comes to serious debate.

#6 I'm looking forward to this show (in about 10 minutes). The Right has it all over the lefties when it comes to subtle humor. Modern Lib humor is centered around "4-letter words", anarchist-chic jabs at patriotism and religiosity ,fart jokes and "hilarious" ways to murder George Bush. Their attempts at creative, spontaneous humor fall flat due to their repressed guilt and self-loathing. That's only ONE reason they're getting ZERO traction. They're absurd and anyone with half a brain isn't buying their bs.
