OMG! The BET Comedy Awards Just Slammed GWB Into Last Week!
Edited on Thu Oct-06-05 09:22 PM by me b zola
Steve Harvey opens dressed as Caesar in front of his court. His assistant steps up and addresses "Caesar": "Great Caesar, we're here for the sentencing of one convicted of high crimes against the citizen victims of hurricane Katrina. To receive your final judgment, great lord, we have... /////the prisoner is unmasked, and it is GB, he is in shackles....the crowd boos/////...

Caesar responds, "Oh, George Bush, you're the one sitting around doing nothing."

Caesar then turns to his court and says "What do you all want to do with him?"

The court responds "STONE HIM!"

~misc stuff~

Caesar than speaks to GB again, "Ain't you got an organization named FEMA, whose job is to get ready for a disaster, but when a disaster happened, all you all did was get ready?" ////much laughter////

Caesar asks his court, "What do you all want to do with him?"

Court responds, "BOIL HIM!"

Caesar talks about throwing rice and crawfish in the pot, making NO jumboli.

Caesar: "Look here, George. I got this young, cold soldier, a little young centurion, from a far away land called rockafeller, called Kanya Westicus. Kanya says George Bush don't care nuttin about Black people. Oh, you can take that stupid ass look off your face, cause you're in a room full of black people, it ain't going good right now I can tell you that right now.

Caesar to court: "What do we want to do with him?"

Court: "CRUSH HIS NUTS!"

12. The BET Comedy Awards are on right now
The skit that I described was the lead-off. Check your local cable or satellite carrier to see when it will be replayed next for you, you'll be happy that you did. :)

10. Gooood. Let the hate flow through you!
Sorry, just had to say it. However, I think the hatred for Bush expressed here is perfectly justified. He just so happens to be a very bad and very destructive president.

13. Anger does not have to be hatred.
KnowhatImean? Accepting, expressing in public your anger at the murder of NO can excite change. This is a good sign. NO must be remembered. It is our Alamo.

15. It was angry, set in a backdrop of humor
..or maybe I have that backwards.

As funny as the skit was, there was an underlying tension and deep anger. It was well done and very effective. Those bastids in the administration have no idea of what they have done. Tonight was but a taste of the sentiment out there.

18. This was a very powerful skit
I sent it to crooksandliars so that they can catch the rebroadcast.

This is really something that we all should see. Yes, because it is hillarious, but more importantly for the political statement that it made. Watch with both eyes open.

22. What's so ironic is that
I remember the president or owner or whoever of BET, robert johnson, was a * supporter..hmm? Wondering if he's changed his mind.

I had comedy central on last night and "Mind Of Mencia" was on before Jon Stewart and they had that picture of bush giving the finger..the one that's been on DU. It was on there for a long time..I had it on mute but I finally turned on the volumn so I could hear what he was saying about it..just babbling about "bush giving the finger..yada yada yada".

24. I am not up on the politics and the $$ behind BET
Thanks for a little insight. On first blush, I would say that it is unfortunate that a man named 'Robert Johnson' would be a supporter of such a group of tyrants. Regardless, it seems as though free speech reigns on BET. :)

32. I've been looking for a link to it, but have so far been unsuccessful
BET does have some video clips of last night's show, but I couldn't find a clip with that skit on it.

I e-mailed crooks & liars last night, hopefully they will record the rebroadcast of the show :)
