Nothing on Colbert or Stewart of course, even with no language restrictions, but still a good show.

(31,464 posts)7. A couple of the funniest fake political ads ever
He did fake ads for Alison Grimes and Mitch McConnell which must be seen to be believed. I hope the start circulating around the internet. Hysterical, but def NSFW.
SPOILER ALERT: in the McConnell ad, Turtleboy was represented by a close-up picture of an old man's tiny shriveled up penis. Gross but effective, and very funny.
