comedians and talk show hosts were impartial towards politics in general and everybody was fair game to be made fun of in a, generally, lighthearted way?
Remember when doing something like pic related would have killed your image with the general public and have you labeled as a dicksucking hack for the rest of your life by your fellow peers (i.e. Dennis Miller) ?
I mean I know most of you are underage but the time I'm speaking of was only like 10-15 years ago.
>>70746872
Nope. I'm 35 and it was never that way.
Remember Lenny Bruce was arrested for obscenity? I don't because it happened like 20 years before I was born but I've read about it, to George Carlin.

>it was never that way
By all means, tell us all when the last time a sitting President appeared on a talkshow and made "jokes" about how great he was. I won't wait up for your response because I know you can't give me an example.

I'm pretty sure Reagan was on Johnny Carson during his presidency.
>>70747041
nope
>butthurt because no funny conservative comedians.
Why are British talk shows so superior?
>>70747071
Norm McDonald
Bob Saget
Adam Carolla
Colin Quinn
Patrice O'Neal
Roseanne
>>70746872
I don't understand what the issue is with having a charismatic president
Can you find nothing else to insult him over? Like, I dunno, constant drone strikes killing hundreds if not thousands of civilians, obamacare's poor implementation, his first 4 years when he was a weak leader constantly being bullied by congress?
Obama is far from the best president, but being pissed off that he's funny and relatively down-to-earth makes you sound like a butthurt conservative
>>70747006
Bush was on Dr Phil in '04.
>>70746872
>10 to 15 years ago
Oh you mean when Clinton was playing saxophone on Arsenio?
>>70746910
>Nope. I'm 35 and it was never that way.
Except for those 20 years where Jay Leno hosted the number one rated talk show.
>>70747164
>Patrice
>conservative
He's pretty unaligned when it comes to politics.
>>70747207
He isn't anything because he's dead you fucking dumbass
>>70747071
The pendulum is going to swing so hard it cleans your clock.
When even lukewarm comedians like Seinfeld complain about SJW madness it shows you the biggest lolcow to milk in society right now isn't the conservatives or the religious, it's the lefty headcases.
>>70747207
shhh! they need this
anyone who isn't an outspoken liberal is considered conservative to balance the sides
>>70747057
That's correct. Reagan appeared on Johnny Carson in 1975, when he was still Governor of California.
>>70747199
Jay Leno was never impartial to politics. He was always a left leaner.
>>70747254
>The pendulum is going to swing so hard it cleans your clock.
this is quite ironic since you know that when that happens, when supreme leader trump is elected, that 4chan will swing back to the left don't you?
>>70747260
>shhh! they need this
>>70747296
Jay Leno deliberately tailored his show to be politically neutral.
You can Google this.
>>70747164
Colin Quinn is a democrat.
>>70747346
And? How he tailored the show and how the show ended up are two different things.
>>70747189
Clinton played the sax on Arsenio in 1992 before he was elected President. He was still governor of Arkansas at the time.
>>70747340
>le reddit boogeyman
>>70747359
In his book he says he's a registered democrat but hasn't voted since he was young and later describes himself as a conservative.
Everyone over 30 is right wing.

>>70746872
>being this triggered that conversvacucks aren't funny
>>70746872
Yeah, it is really politically biased to have the fucking President of the United States of America as a guest.
>>70747254
>he believes in a literal pendulum theory
Yeah, the prospect of the mainstream spending a few years attacking insincere liberals for being insincere in their liberalism is like terrifying m8. I don't know if I'm going to make it, lol.
Fallon had Trump on a couple of months ago and treated him as respectfully as any other presidential candidate.
>>70747494
hitler did nothing wrong
>>70747006
Bush appeared on fucking Deal Or No Deal to try and boost his ratings m8.

Nah, it does.
tl;dr OP is likely underageb& hence the pre-emptive accusation, people have short memories and right-wingers way, way overestimate the power of their Dignity of Office special move
It's like a few years ago when Michelle Obama presented some award at the Oscars. All these AM-radio chuckleheads losing their shit over it. Neither they nor anybody else gave a fuck when Laura Bush did the same thing in 2004 or whenever.
