I would also add Brad Stine. He is a pro life, pro gun, pro traditional marriage, pro lower taxes, and an unapologetic Christian conservative comedian. He's hilarious! He has had some decent success but admits that he could have more if the liberal networks allowed him to perform.

I don't really consider the blue collar comedians to be conservative humor. Just because their market may be directed at mostly country people doesn't mean that it's conservative humor. They are not really political. Jay Leno has used more conservative humor than they have.

You won't find very many conservative comedians, not because conservatives are not funny, that's a load of nonsense. It's because the people who own the platforms don't want conservatives expressing their views.

Yeah, was thinking of the Team America letter and thought it was Baldwin but double checked to see it was Sean Penn. What a tool.

While Lorne is the producer, I'd like to hear from the show's writers. I suspect that their writers (especially Tina Fey) are all hard core liberal Democratic Party supporters who hate Republican politicians. While GW Bush made many verbal gaffs, it was perfectly fine for SNL to poke fun at those gaffs. But where was SNL when Obama and Biden made such verbal gaffs? Certain members of Congress have made some really stupid comments like those by Sheila Jackson Lee but they're afraid of making a black woman Democratic Party look stupid.

They make fun of Obama all the time. I don't have to defend SNL but I imagine that if they did a piece on SJL a large segment of the viewers would scratch their head wondering who it was they were lampooning.

Because the reason for saying "happy holidays" is to push your agenda.

It is Christmas, you know.

I doubt they made fun of him anywhere near the amount they did of either GW Bush or Bill Clinton. The fact that he's the "hope & change" and "first black president" means they're hitting him with kiddy gloves so as not to offend him and be accused of being racist.
