Anyone see "Black Bush" on Chapelle's Show last night?


Hilarious. Hope it will soon be up on Comedy Central's web site. Basically it was a skit on how it would look for Bush to push his "policies" if he were a black man in office -- bulldozing over public opinion and questions from the press.

A MUST see if you can catch it on rerun.

1. My favorite part
I loved it when he was giving a press conference and was asked a serious question. He looked thoughtful for a moment, then turned and ran away. Too funny!

3. Yeah, I caught it -- and it was hilarious.
"Oil? What you talkin' about oil?"

(Knocks over water pitcher and runs out of the room)

8. This sounds like the funniest spin on bush EVER!
I keep hearing about this Chappelle guy... guess he's one of the funniest people in the nation right now! Right on!

Jon Stewart should have Black Bush on for an interview, me thinks.

9. Chapelle's Bush Sketch
last night was the funniest thing that I've seen on TV in a long time. I liked the scene where he downplayed the Iraq debacle and asked, "Did you know that gay people are getting married?" He then went into a detailed detailed description of lesbian having sex. The point being, if you can't convince the American public, divert their attention.

I applaud writers of the Chapelle show for addressing the problems with the Bush administration using comedy. I often watch the Daily Show for the same reasons.

11. it was a time line
It was a time-line of actual events. That was the best part about the skit. He just said what Bush was thinking during each of those events instead of spitting out eh Orwellian speak that Bush often spews. Too bad it ended with the moon and mars distractions. I am hoping we will soon see part two of the skit that will show a timeline of Bush's events since he decided to invade the moon....including a parody of this week's press confrence.

Ths skit was dead on funny. I plan to watch it again a number of times over the next week or so.

what did he say? "....he tried to kill my daddy ,beaotch!" hahaha Something like that.
