If you have not seen this, do it, go on do it now….
Seriously, she fucking owned that stage ESPECIALLY with the Limbaugh joke. Limbaugh is an incredulous douche who needs his testicles removed, what Sykes said about him was mild compared to what almost every political comedian in the world, including Jon Stewart (multiple times on his show) has said about him.
This was undeniably the most bitchin’ correspondent’s dinner I’ve ever seen.

Anyone can find anything funny or not funny, in good taste or in poor taste, but I think there’s a double-standard at play with these talk radio schmucks and there has been for a long time. Find something that Limbaugh or Savage says offensive and you’re the hypersensitive thought police. But say something offensive about them and you’re being vicious? Give me a break!

The best part about the media going nuts over Sykes’ performance, they’re all in rage and yet the people at the tables next to Sykes were laughing and actually having a good time, including Michelle and Obama, the two ripped on the most during the routine.
If the president of the united states can take a joke, then the people who think they represent him should be able to too.

That wasn’t bad that.

it’s sadly the dual edged sword of society.
When differential views within the political system those people who were angered by ultra-liberals thrashing bush are now the ones who say things about President Obama.
They prattle on about being PC at times, but they themselves fail to understand the social commentary they are creating about themselves in the process.
Just had to let my two cents be known.
