No Bush

Ok, so I can't speak for the rest of the country but late night TV doesn't seem to like Bush.

The Daily Show
Tough Crowd
Late Show with David Letterman

I wonder what they will talk about next February.

Well, to be fair, Letterman doesn't seem to like anybody - he still makes Clinton/Lewinsky jokes.

It is interesting to see Jon Stewart drop the charade that he's anything but a flaming liberal (did you see his "douchebag of liberty" rant about Robert Novak the other night?). 'Course, being one myself, I don't mind it one bit.

"Tough Crowd?" Geez, I thought Colin Quinn was that rarity - a funny conservative!

I think that Letterman generally is unbiased about his jokes, but as we get closer to the election he is not pulling any punches against Bush.

Colin Quinn is definitely a conservative, but his show is built around having four stand up comedians in a room with him. From my experience, most of them (on his show and off) are usually liberal or at least more left than right.
