    No - the take-off is too extreme: even right-wing nutters can't really be that mad.

    Anyone who has a list different from this is not just of a different opinion, but in fact, is retarded.

    I really cannot pick a third. No one else comes close to those two in my book.

    EDIT:

    Okay, after perusing other people's lists, I will have to add:

    Robert Schimmel(BAM, another (4 letter word for penis that rhymes with rick))
    Dave Chappelle

    I've never found her funny. Maybe a little snooty at times.

    What's your favorite album?

    I think if you hear what she said today, you would agree with me.

    album, hard to say, there are so many great ones from the late sixties and seventies, but I would have to go with one of the Zepplin albums.
    I could easily rattle off more than 10 who are just a smige behind Z.

    Growing up i'd say my favorites were: Eddie Murphy, Andrew Dice Clay, Sam Kinnison, George Carlin, Rita Rudner, Steven Wright.

    Some of my current favs: Louie CK, Daniel Tosh, Mike DeStefano RIP, Chris Tucker, Ty Barnett, Lisa Lampanelli, Steven Byrne, Nikki Glasser, Mike Kosta, Chris D'Elia (I've never seen Whitney so I don't know if he's any good on that, but his stand up is great), Bo Bynum (one of the more unique stand up routines)


    EDIT: Can't believe I forgot Mitch Hedberg! And for old school I go with Jackie Mason.
