Looks like there was a correspondents dinner for those who cover the White House and supposedly bring us hard news from there.
There was some seriously funny stuff at that dinner and of course, there is video of it. First up is the President of the United States of America; who actually can be a pretty funny person. Some of the funnier stuff of his appearance was the humor about the Teleprompter. Obviously, his staff are reading the blogs and know about the whole “President TelePrompter” bit. Because the President really went out of his way to do a sight gag on that. The President also did a little of the funny stuff about him being the Massiah. Which I’m sure will offend some; I found to be funny myself.
Here’s the Video:

Then were was the comedy routine by Wanda Sykes. I am sure that this is going to create some controversy. But it was all in fun. Obvious strikeouts were when she goofed on Limbaugh and Sarah Palin, which, the part about limbaugh, He would have laughed too. The Sarah Palin was not funny at all, and think Sykes knew that, this is why she quickly moved on. The best line of the whole routine, I thought, was the one about how the first lady was patting on the Queen of England like she was sliding into home plate. The First Lady was loving it! As She should have, it was very funny. The other funny part was the Ipod joke; that was great.

All in all, I think the stuff was mostly pretty funny. I could sit here and critically of the dinner and lambast them for the jokes told. But even I am not that much of a fuddy duddy…
