"Top Ten George W. Bush Complaints About "Fahrenheit 9/11" and more

Comedian commentary on the campaign:

"Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn":

"'Spider-Man 2' opens this week. Spidey goes up against a villian with six tentacles. One of them goes right, one goes left. One goes up, one goes down. Hey, I think we found John Kerry's running mate!"

"Saddam Hussein about to face trial and George Bush wants him executed. Not because of war crimes but because Saddam's beating him in the polls."

---

"Late Show with David Letterman":

"There's one guy who's very excited about the handover and that's President George Bush. He's thrilled about turning the power back over to Iraq. And you know why? Because he's thinking of invading them again."

"Top Ten George W. Bush Complaints About "Fahrenheit 9/11"

10. That actor who played the president was totally unconvincing.

9. It oversimplified the way I stole the election.

8. Too many of them fancy college-boy words

7. If Michael Moore had waited a few months, he could have included the part where I get him deported.

6. Didn't have one of them hilarious monkeys who smoke cigarettes and gives people the finger.

5. Of all Michael Moore's accusations, only 97% are true.

4. Not sure - I passed out after a piece of popcorn lodged in my windpipe.

3. Where the hell was Spiderman?

2. Couldn't hear most of the movie over Cheney's foul mouth.

1. I thought this was supposed to be about dodgeball!"

2. Comedians have become the source of truth/debate. How sad...
albeit very funny. David Letterman does not hide his opinions of Bush.

3. Is It Just Me

5. The Daily Show is what it is because of Jon, no question. It's all Jon.

6. I didn't like it that much
When Kilborn was host. It's a lot better with Jon Stewart. Now I never miss it.

8. Yup, and of course he left the Daily Show in bad circumstances
He'd given an interview where he jokingly referred to the male staff getting oral service from the female staff etc. The original creator (if I remember correctly) Lizz Winstead was none too pleased...

I can't remember all the details, but Craig is a putz.

Kilbourne is terrible.

Tom Snyder was much better.

Watch Conan instead.

12. No, it is not just you.
I stopped watching TV several years ago now but before I did, I would occasionally catch his show. I'd watch with hope that he would FINALLY say something funny. It seldom happened. Kilborne Sucks -- his producers, I assume -- only explanation I can find for why this slimy, cynical malcontent is given air time.
