Those people must have been laughing at something funny. Did she pay for the laughter or did she just swipe it? And that weird way she looks up when the fake laughter starts...did she spend years practicing it in front of the mirror in her parents basement? Looks like it!

I think Obama could write better jokes about himself than anything I've seen coming from ANY conservative "celebrity."

And when will the world learn that laugh tracks make the jokes less funny?

They just do not know how to make anything funny. Where is their Jon Stewart or Colbert?

Drums - ba dum bump

Horn - wah wah waaaaaaaah

Voice - groan

Crickets - chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp

Now all of that would have made it funny.
