Remember the rodeo scene in Borat where he got an entire arena to cheer about killing every man, woman and child Iraq? I like that he exposes people who truly think like that, it's gold that he gets them to make complete asses of themselves without them even realizing, like Colbert does.
But it's just so absurd and over the top, and most importantly I know that it's satire, that's the reason I can find it funny. I'll admit I can also see why tasteless isn't everyone's sense of humor though. (sorry for the bruno-festo  ) |
Yep. I like that he says so much without *saying* it. Art.
