1. I may have lost my sense of humor |
|
I didn't even crack a smile. In fact, I mostly felt sad.

Where was the funny? Sorry these guys peaked before they arrived. Taste is personal though so some may get some mirth from it. But I am not one.

5. JibJab is more proBush than people catch on. Bush is treated way better |
|
than he deserves. Bush is EVIL. His policies are evil. But JibJab downplays his character to a happy-go-lucky, affable everyman.
Democrats are always portrayed grimly and pathetically. As if there is NO room for intelligence in this country.
JibJab's technique HELPS Bush and the Republicans.

7. I guess I think anything that makes chimp out to be |
|
the Rube that he is makes me laugh.
I know there is a war on, but come on, Condoleezza in a pink dress playing the fiddle? Or the millionaires on Wall Street hanging out the window of their limousines claiming taxes are breaking their "backses"?
I guess I'm the rube.:-(

much of that did make me laugh. I don't understand how that was different than some of the stuff on the daily show.
Yes, it is sad, but I hardly think it makes Bush look good.
Lighten up people. Laughing at a JibJab cartoon doesn't mean you agree with him getting four more years.

9. Not complaing cuz of the politics |
|
Just a question of taste. We each have our own sense of what is funny. This one just doesn't reach me.

10. It isn't a question of lightening up |
|
It's a question of taste, I guess. Hell, Jim Carrey rarely makes me laugh, either.
I agree that it doesn't make Bush look good, it does, however, make him appear to be rather harmless.

11. Exactly. Making Bush out to be harmless is the goal of this piece. |
|
I always felt that JibJab was working to blur the lines to work for Bush's advantage. The point made was always "No difference." which is a huge lie that benefits only the Bush regime.

12. I don't think it's pro-Bush, but it's definitely not funny |
