Q: What do you get when combine a horse’s ass, a malcontent lesbian and a horny gaggle of Caligula’s Roman slaves?
A: The White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner.
This stopped-up toilet of an event should have been rated X for eXXXtra revolting, as some of the bathroom “jokes” that passed for “humor” were about 100 times more noisome than my cat’s litter pan is at this very moment.
For those of you in Rio Obama, that means it stunk worse than Jerrold Nadler after two hours at a Taco Bell all-you-can-eat buffet.
Aside from the lame jokes that Obama tried to pass off as enlightened speech, we had some odd freak that I doubt 95% of the country has ever even heard of, spouting the usual checklist of Leftist hate speech:
1) Rush Limbaugh is a traitor. Check
2) Rush Limbaugh is a terrorist (calling him the 20th hijacker). Check.
3) Wishing Rush Limbaugh dead (of kidney disease). Check.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what passes for “funny” in today’s Leftist culture. Three jokes about Rush Limbaugh. Now I know why the comedy writers went on strike. Their “R” and “L” keys kept breaking off from overuse.
And who in Sam Hill is Wanda Sykes? That sounds like a Z-grade porn name, not one a “cool” comedian would use. Then again, she could be moonlighting as the former for all that I know.
As for reaction, Robert Gibbs, the lobotomized Howdy Doody White House Press Secretary had this to offer: (Hat Tip: Michelle Malkin)
In his daily briefing Monday, Robert Gibbs distanced the president from comedian Wanda Sykes’ joke comparing Rush Limbaugh to a 9/11 hijacker at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner.
“I don’t know how the guests get booked,” Gibbs said, adding that he hadn’t “talked specifically” with Obama about Sykes’ crack.
“I think there are a lot of topics that are better left for serious reflection rather than comedy. I think there’s no doubt 9/11 is part of that,” Gibbs continued.
Gibbs seems not to be with the program, as according to The Hill (Hat Tip: The Weekly Standard)
President Obama gave [Sykes] a thumbs up.
“He told me I did a great job,” Sykes said. “The first lady said the same thing. I got a well done from the president, I’m on cloud nine.”
Doug Powers had better lines. Some gems:
“If you’re wondering why the president is in a good mood, it’s because he’s glad to be finished with his annual physical. During his colonoscopy doctors removed two benign polyps and the White House Press Corps.”
“This isn’t the first time Barack Obama has denied any knowledge of a New York City buzz – the first being the time he smoked a joint with William Ayers at ’21.’”
“In closing, I’d like to say thank you to the man who is responsible for all this. I’d like to, but George Soros isn’t here tonight. They don’t let George and Barack in the same room anymore because the last time they did, Joe Biden got tangled up in the puppet strings.”
Now, here is some real comedy at the same event a few years ago:
