Saw Patton Oswalt (King of Queens) in SF. Laughed for 3 hrs straight!

What a great show, and every comic on stage did great stuff on Bush. I particularly loved Patton's take on him. He did an hysterical bit that I cannot do justice to, but it was essentially about how Bush and all the fundies who vote for him believe that Armageddon is coming, and that the people who go to heaven in the rapture (being us, if Bush is re-elected) will get laid because they died in the coolest way.

I guess you had to be there, but he had the entire house (most of whom had been standing for 3 hours) rolling.

Everyone else was great, too, particularly Maria Bamford, who was inspired. One of the funniest female comics I've ever seen. If you ever get a chance to see her, go!

They were filming a documentary, which will be available at some point. Worth keeping an eye out for.

1. Patton Oswalt is great

His work on KoQ makes one think that he's a run of the mill actor/comic but he's not.

His stuff is more edgy and hard than I thought it would be. In some ways he reminds me of a less intense more accessible David Cross.

I like his comedy, a lot.
