James is not like us. There’s something different about him. He is thoroughly enjoying the moment. On stage he is a natural, moving flawlessly, jumping and dancing, interacting with fellow musicians and in-charge vocally.

Phillip Wilburn and Natascha Corrigan (as George W. Bush and Sarah Palin)

Brenth Budowsky: What is
astounding and incomprehensible is the degree that Obama and too many Democrats have surrendered on first principle policies where the majority of voters agree with the

Wayne Williams: Mike was cantankerous, brilliant, stubborn, and, of course, funny. He never knew his parents, was adopted and raised by a casino boss, served with the U.S. Marines in Korea, wrote for many comedy shows and comics, and wrote perfect prose to his hearts content, performed stand up himself, and taught others how to do so as well.

Steve Hochstadt: Is Hollywood trying to push a gay agenda on right-thinking Americans, as some people claim? I think it’s the other way around: Hollywood is trying to sell products.
