The 2nd Annual George Bush Going Away Party

bush-unwanted.jpg
Making jokes about the President is pretty easy. Making them funny, not so much. We do have to say, though, that with his 38% approval rating and the Republicans' sudden discovery that he's not wearing any clothes, there's an element of kicking a man when he's down. Which makes us feel kind of guilty about it. Oh, wait. Check that. You can never make enough fun of the President.

This Saturday night is the 2nd Annual George Bush Going Away Party: An Evening of Political Comedy. The first one was held about this time last year in an attempt to raise money to defeat him. Obviously, it being the "second annual" means that the first one didn't succeed from a political standpoint. From an entertainment standpoint, it did. While saying that it's yet one more attempt to send our President back to Crawford might be a joke, the money for the show will go to the Central Committee for Conscientious Objectors' (CCCO) "Military Out of Our Schools Program." Comedians include Bill Santiago, Diane Amos, Scott Blakeman, Lisa Geduldig, Alana Devich, Ross Turner, and Aundre the Wonderwoman .

Show’s at 8 at the Herbst Theater. Be there or be, well, you know.
