    I've
    been a fan of Lewis Black since I first saw his standup, and I've
    always enjoyed watching him skate up to the edge of propriety, do an
    ollie off it and bank off the wall of bad taste. Then he gets back up,
    covered in truth and glory every time. He tells us something
    about writers and their challenges here. And what a writer's function in
    life is. He goes pretty deeply into the weeds again, so expect a few
    collateral F-bombs spiralling into his targets.

    The voice of anger in Inside Out the most perfect animation voice casting in history. I love this guy he tells it like it is.

    I love this guy. He is an absolute genius. The only sane man in a dystopian world.

    Love Lewis ! He GETS it !
    Kind of like Carlin. (kinda) George Carlin always said what we were all thinking, whereas Lewis says, "WHY *AREN'T* YOU THINKING *THIS* !!!"
    Dammit he cracks me up.

    I love that Lewis Black's first utterance was 'Um...'

    Thank you for being so articulate and knowledgeable about the insane Trumpian world view and about the need for an open and free press.

    Hilarious as it was, how fucked up is it that this is the first time they've ever had to implore attendees to be more adult than the occupant of the White House?
    Sad.

    Has it dawned on comedians that the country voted in Trump, we like him, he is our president. Obama was a joke and a-half and I didn't hear much and he was the worst president in the history of our country; Obama put the entire economy in his pocket. That in itself was a great material.

      C_ Farther Your post makes little sense, is grammatically unclear or is incomplete. Taking inspiration from your president. Well done.

      @li.gren. 7 років тому +8

      C_ Farther - Unfortunately your opinion isn't based on fact; but on bias, propaganda and lies.
      Clearly you're a right-wing brainwashed nutcase.
      Good luck with that.

      C_ Farther First... they weren't voting FOR Trump... the were voting against the "Swamp".
      Second: Trump lied to the voters .... all he did was create a bigger, classless swamp.
      He's a freekin Reverse Robin Hood.. taking from the middle class and giving to himself.
      I live near the "Winter White House" .... and we were starting to think Air Force 1 was a permanent scheluled weekend flight... for **Not United**
      When are you going to wise up?
