I think this is sort of deficient as art, because there is nothing that you
can do or say at this point which would exceed the craziness of actual real 
life.  

I am generally a fan of satire, but we are living in an age when you cannot
tell if something is from the Onion or the New York Times anymore, because
reality has become sufficiently extreme to be difficult to satirize.

It's bad times for political comedians.  Bad times.
