The annual White House Corespondents Dinner last night was pretty
funny. Its being rebroadcast on C-Span. Bush spoke side by side with
his comedic double -- who provided an inner world satirical view of
Bush. Some was pretty ripping, even though this portion was a White
House skit.
Stephen Colbert -- former Jon Stewart alumnus and who now follows
Stewart's Daily show (Colbert, a brilliant interviewer, satirizes
O'Reily types, by feigning being one. 50% of his routine was quite
funny and skewering of Bush -- though it got only mild laughs from the
correspondents -- apparently too embarrassed to laugh too hard at
swords that went deep into the President who was sitting right in
front of them. Or, perhaps if they are not already Colbert fans,
andseeing him for the first time, they needed a digestion period to
fully absorb the nuances of Colbert's satire. (The other 50% of
Colbert's routine was a bit weak, but still the premeise of the jokes
showed promise -- but needed some refinement to rise above mediocre
humor. )
