I think Leno has gone nuts. He has a serious crush on Obama and is obsessed with him. His show has become a pro-Obama political show and it has gotten sickening. I've never seen anything like it. I used to watch him every night but I can't stand him anymore.

That is not true. He makes fun of them all equally.

None of the rest of the manufactured-rage storyline is true either. It's sort of like the manufactured-look-how-good-Bush-is-doing storyline that got started eight years ago. Or any of the storylines about Carter or Clinton. The whole edifice of the right-wing storyline has been built on bunk for decades...no reason to expect change now...

Well he spent the last 10 years making fun of Gore, sucking up to Bush and having Swarzenegger on his show every other week. At least that's the way it appeared when I scrolled past his show when Letterman was re-runs. Leno quit being funny about 15 years ago and relevant in November.

LOL! You OBVIOUSLY don't watch the show. Leno idolizes Obama and does NOT make fun of them equally. How's the Kool aid?

Who thinks he's funny?

Belushi was funny. Steve Martin was funny. Carol Burnette was funny. Abbott and Costello were funny. Martin and Lewis were funny, but only as a team. Chevy Chase, and Gracie Allen and Uncle Miltie and Bob Hope were funny. Red Skelton was VERY funny, and Jack Benny was the funniest man who ever lived.

Leno? Funny? Never, no, nein, nyet, nunca. Not.

I would agree, except replace that awful Chevy Chase with Benny Hill

Leno is in a tight spot because making fun of a Black president is very tricky. His technique seems to be to joke that Obama does everything so great his above mortal.
