Comedian David Angelo is a funny, droll dude. And from my one appearance with him on Red Eye, it seems like he's, um, on our side. So he's funny -- really funny -- and on our side. Which is rare.

Here he is explaining the sequester:

this guy needs to go viral, he's exactly the kind of droll merry prankster Breitbart would love

Sorry, but I laughed harder at the guy in the comments who is out of equities, selling gold and buying toilet paper and tampons, 'cause he's gonna be rich like Warren Buffet who's doing the same! Now, that's funny!

Biggest laugh-out-loud moment was the President claiming the cuts would set medical research back a generation.

That's great work right there.

A friend of mine asked me the other day about sequester. I now have to revise my answer.

Rush's great concept - the "low-information voter" is never going to see this. 

I thought the funniest line was when he was looking off to the side and said "...they're in charge now", but the problem is that they are, and they're never going to see this, or care or understand if they did. 

I like the guy though.

If you can be that laconic while still insightful and funny you have a unique talent that a hollering, indignant, gesticulating Jon Stewart never had.

Smart too. Lived the Scream picture and - they said Bush was scaring everyone.

Not only funny but insightful and informative.  Consider the eye-opening comparison to the mechanics of the recent housing bubble.  From the on-screen bullet points at 4:16:

Predatory lending to U.S.A.

-We can't repay loans.

-Low teaser rates (0.1% on 90-day Treasury bills)

-Flipping debt to Federal Reserve

Epic.  The rough part here is realizing that he could do a 4-hour show each day on all of this and never run out of material, charts, graphs, or video of politicians signing off on policy that dooms us all.

Barry has really warmed up to his lies now, hasn't he?  He's fully embracing them, with open arms.

Why, again, should a federal budget cut lay off a single teacher, anywhere?  And if so, if it's true, why did Barry create the sequester in the first place, since he's the one who's basically OK'd the axing of teachers, firefighters, policemen, Jedi, community organizers, etc....etc..etc.

I don't usually share politically themed updates on Facebook, but I just shared that video.  I'm still laughing about it.  

I see he has some other videos in the series which are great viewing too.
