    I know the Repubs on here will be stone-faced and twist. But, this is downright hilarious!

    I laugh at a lot of things he says. Like "pass this spending bill and the economy will do better."

    Denny's a real crack-up, y'all. The man loves to laugh.

    I think Gingrich's latest wife is slowly transforming into a featherless crow.

    I seriously cannot comprehend how anyone who understands the jokes could think they weren't funny.

    So is it Obama that is funny? Or his writers?

    The remark about Michelle taking the $100mil was pretty funny.

    Both, even if he didn't write a word of it. He has pretty good comedic delivery.

    Do comedians write their stuff or do they have writers?

    This is the first time I can honestly say Obama is a wise guy.

    Then you're really stubborn in your thought process.

    You'd only be crying if McCain had banana republiced the economy with upper class tax cuts while fighting wars in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria, as is his want.

    Jimmy Valvano says you should laugh and cry at least once a day. It keeps you sane.

    I'm as wealthy as I've ever been and its under Obama's watch. I can't be more thankful.

    He will be a great public/motivational speaker once his term is up.

    Have to admit he had some funny moments in there. But, you know what I think would be funny? If he would actually stand up in front of the press corps and answer questions like the presidents before him did.

    Which Presidents were those?

    Ike is the last President that I remember directly and honestly answering questions from the press.

    Some do, some don't.

    Most well-known comedians are inherently funny and got to where they are after spending years mastering their craft and writing their own stuff.

    Apples and oranges.
