Anyone watching yesterday's "press conference", if you are truly unbiased, can plainly see that Bush is not funny. Not in the least.

Plus, he's a moron.

2. An audience can always be counted on to produce a titter
regardless of how unfunny a speaker is, except in a comedy club.

4. "Welcome to my submarine lair. It's long, hard, and full of seamen"

7. When John Kennedy would have
a press conference, he was one of the most affable and witty presidents and quite photogenic to boot. The media and most of America genuinely liked JFK. The chimp can only dream of acheiving something akin to that.

10. Maybe if he stood in front of a red brick wall, like Evening @ the Improv,
he'd be funnier. Or he could go the Carrot Top prop, or Gallagher fruit smashing route.

The Photoshop possibilities are endless.

12. I noticed that there are only a very few chucklers.
The camera happened to pan the press contingent after one of the "funnies" and almost the entire group sat stone-faced. There were three gigglers sitting near the front. Maybe that's their job -- to respond to those lame attempts at humor.
