Check out some good political humor from the funny activists who attended the rally.
From Denny: What started as just a funny segment on The Daily Show grew into an actual rally that drew over 214,000 people. Glenn Beck's Fox News conservative August rally where he tried to compare himself to Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King only drew 85,000. The good news? Strong minds outnumber weak minds at political rallies in America. Well, that's one to celebrate.
There are a gazillion photos circulating the web from this funny rally that comedians Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert put together on the fly when they realized people really did want to attend an actual rally in Washington.

Funny Video: Stewart Rips Fox News Lies About Ground Zero Mosque
*** Comics have endless material ripped from true headlines, like Fox News creating controversy to keep from sinking lower in the news ratings.

From Denny: Fox News has been on a desperate mission to pump up their news ratings as they are an abysmal last, trailing far behind the big networks. So, what to do? Well, start spouting racist garbage in an effort to galvanize what's left of their crazed base before they get exiled to retirement homes as far away from their kids as their kids can send them.
Stewart enjoys demonstrating to Fox News opining pundits just how contradictory they truly are by pulling their own news clips. Ridiculous is as ridiculous does. Stewart visited the bizarre debate in this country about the planned mosque building that is near not on Ground Zero.
Of course, Stewart's favorite to lampoon is really odd Glenn Beck who worries about Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the man spearheading the project: "We don't know what he's planning to do in that cultural center." Roll tape and there is Imam Rauf actually sitting on the Fox News couch saying the same thing.
Stewart turns to British comic John Oliver to get his take on the controversial construction. Oliver pointed out that it's not a question of "right" or "wrong," but of "can" and "should." For example, "You can build a Catholic church next to a playground - but should you?"

Funny Video: Campy Bed Bug PSA
*** Leave it to Jon Stewart to ferret out the campiest PSA done on bedbugs.

From Denny: This is a video clip of the segment called "Bed Bug & Beyond" from The Daily Show and Jon Stewart. Talk about strange. Famous Italian actress, Isabella Rossellini, stars in an avant-garde PSA that teaches us about the bed bug infestation. This PSA actually discusses bed bug sexual anatomy and fertility. Yeah, that's right. I told you this crazy video was campy.

The president won't meet with her, but a four-foot tall Holocaust-denier in a Members Only jacket? No problem.The White House is defending President Obama's sports activities over the past week, saying that everyone needs leisure time. Thanks to these economic policies, 9.5 percent of Americans have all the leisure time they need.The economy is so bad, the Obamas are thinking about taking their next vacation in the United States.If anyone is looking for a job, there's an opening for a flight attendant at JetBlue. … Steven Slater, the famous JetBlue flight attendant, dropped so many F-bombs on that plane that he got a thumbs up from Joe Biden.
The New Orleans Saints visited the White House. They presented President Obama with a Saints jersey with the number 44, in honor of his approval rating.A JetBlue flight attendant cursed out passengers, grabbed two beers, slid down the chute and took off. The pilots were furious. Those were their last two beers.This flight attendant really went crazy. The good news: terrorists are now afraid to fly.The New Orleans Saints visited the White House yesterday. That's an interesting switch, people from New Orleans visiting a disaster area.Levi Johnston is running for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. Ironically, many of the babies he'll kiss on the campaign trail will be his own.President Obama announced this month that he created 70,000 new jobs.

From Jimmy Kimmel:President Obama had a 24-hour vacation on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Some Republicans are attacking him for not staying longer. They have a point. President Bush used to vacation for weeks at a time.The president was there to promote tourism in the Gulf. He even jumped into the Gulf to prove it was safe. Unfortunately, he did a cannonball right onto a pelican.Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston have reaching a custody agreement. Neither of them is allowed to say anything bad about the other parent or the other parent’s family in front of Tripp. So basically nobody is allowed to speak in front of Tripp.Everyone is talking about Steven Slater, the flight attendant who cursed at a passenger, grabbed two beers, and slid down the escape slide, in what may be the best resignation ever. In fact he's so good at quitting, they're thinking about making him the next governor of Alaska.It could be the first time in history that someone has been arrested for going down an inflatable slide.The Mexican Supreme Court ruled that all Mexican states must recognize same-sex marriages registered in Mexico City.

He really is trying as hard as he can to get shot by Sarah Palin, isn't he?Mel Gibson's father is speaking out, claiming that the Pope is a homosexual.

From Craig Ferguson:In 'The Expendables,' Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger beat up Sylvester Stallone for convincing them to invest in Planet Hollywood.Schwarzenegger was only in the movie for five minutes, but during that five minutes, he achieved more than in all his years as governor.When Schwarzenegger heard the title 'The Expendables,' he thought it was in reference to California's teachers.Health officials in Oregon have shut down a 7-year-old girl's lemonade stand because she didn't have a license.

And why is it ticking?'Levi Johnston is running for mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. The current mayor said Levi Johnston should get his high school diploma and keep his clothes on if he wants to win.

Funny Videos: Stewart and Colbert Lampoon Reporter Helen Thomas
*** When a reporter like Helen Thomas becomes the news it's quite a mess. Leave it to the comics to lampoon the situation.

The giraffe looks over Helen's shoulder and says, "Bye bye, ol' girl, be seeing ya!"
From Denny: Poor Helen Thomas. She had a really bad senior moment this week and had to retire as a result of anti-Jew remarks. Or should I say pro-Palestinian remarks. When you look at the film clip she actually looks kind of spacey in the eyes and like she can't really hear what all was said. She looks like she bluffed her way through the exchange because she really didn't catch the full gist of the conversation. She might have been referring to when Israel was not a formalized country, like pre-1948. Frankly, she rambled and didn't make much sense, throwing out broken sentences.
She's a very old lady and obviously blew it. She can't keep up any more and she was past time to retire. She could probably still write in print as long as she has a minder-editor to strike out any gaffes. Anyway, Jon had fun lampooning her outrageous comments.
Jon Stewart takes on Helen Thomas' idiot anti-Jew remarks. He has fun lampooning the South Carolina race with all the crazy sex scandals, like a gay guy claiming he had sex with Haley, the female Republican candidate. What a funny respite from the harsh news of late! :)
And funny Colbert back in 2006 with a short segment called "Night of the Helen Thomas":

Funny Video: Jon Stewart Lampoons Glenn Beck About Exclusive Israeli Raid News
*** Glen Beck's constant stream of nonsensical remarks makes him an easy target for late night comics like Jon Stewart.
And from the giraffe corner looking over Glenn Beck's shoulder: Hunh?
From Denny: The latest bizarro words from Beck is he claims the only news network brave enough to air news footage of the Israeli raid on the Gaza aid boat was, you guessed it, Liar Fox News. His latest outrageous remark deserves a serving up from Jon Stewart's driving wit.
From Jon Stewart: Glenn Beck Airs Israeli Raid Footage
Nobody but Glenn Beck seems willing to show footage of Israeli commandos getting attacked by clubs during the flotilla raid.

Funny Video: Jon Stewart Sees BP Fixing Oil Spill with Stupid Anagrams
From Denny: Jon Stewart is absolutely hilarious here. He highlights - and, of course, narrates - video clips from the Congressional hearings with the BP oil spill CEOs from BP, Halliburton and Transocean. Let the finger pointing begin!
