Brad Sherman was interviewed by Stephen Colbert for his "Better Know a District" bit. Brad Sherman's not funny.

Remember when Huckabee properly went after I (heart)?... I miss those days. How am I not myself? Then again, it'd be interesting to put the gov from ark. in the black bag and see what thoughts he chops in half with a sword... Darwin?

Governor Huckabee will win hands down. True, every once in a long while his jokes go awry (e.g. NRA joke). But over all, he is the most humorous politician you'll find. Way to go Huckabee!

@rabo It seems generally speaking that our country is divided between Pub's & Crats almost evenly. I figure about 46% of the vote generally goes to each of the two parties. It seems like they are fighting over that remaining 8% of the voting population. There's really no room in this system for another (independant or party) as long as we voters remain unwavering for either party.

I'm not sure funny is the correct word for libertarians or libertarianism. I have found many of them to be crackpots that do more harm to their party than good. That to me is unfortunate, not funny.

Am I the only one that's hoping Huckabee finally goes off the reservation and works blue?

There's nothing funnier than libertarianism

Wait a sec... There's ANOTHER presidential candidate to choose from!? Hmm... then why aren't the NPR anchors saying "Bob Barr" every 4th or 5th word like they are McCain, Obama and Palin? I'd hate to think they are neglecting their journalistic duties over there.

Is there any way we could get Monkeyerotica in the competition as a write-in "celebrity" candidate? Because I would pay big bucks to see hilarity ensue.

I saw Grover Norquist at the Onion event and he wasn't even remotely funny but just horrible. His jokes on rape were horrible and degrading. To think Dan Glickman is funny, well, any joke coming from the MPAA would have to come with some kind of rating. No swear words and jokes about loving nature = G. One damn and a joke about boobs = PG. Two damns and a sh*t and talking about boobs and butts = PG-13. 5 damns, 4 sh*ts and 3 f*cks plus boobs, butts and nuts = R. Jokes containing all of the above in any amount, plus masturbation, beastiality and anal sex - NC-17.
