Don't hire Bernie Mac...

...if you're looking for Red Skelton.  I get that you're a politician and you've gotta play it safe, but there's a simple way out--don't book Bernie Mac. Did you not see the Kings of Comedy?

LOL, well i guess he hadn't... lawdhavemercy!!!

I'm not sure what's funnier... Bernie Mac's act or the uproar over the fact that Bernie Mac made an off-color joke.

what were the expectations of the bookers?
haven't they've seen at least ONE of his routines?

lol. it's all so ridiculous.

Or, seriously, why wouldn't the Obama campaign bring Sinbad to the stage for this one? Don't they owe him for calling out Hillary Clinton's b-s about that "hair-raising" trip to Bosnia back in 1996? That incident, as much as anything, sealed her fate in the primary.

that was mfcking funny.
