Comedy Congress: live from the Crawford Family Forum  

As far as political humor is concerned, what’s the gift that keeps on giving? The presidential primaries, of course. Comedy Congress has hung up its Christmas stocking and finds it full of Mitt and Newt and Barack – and it’s our holiday gift to you.  Perry ups the voting age; Obama very politely asks Iran for his drone back and we play the highlight reel of Cain’s self-described brain twirlings! And just as we thought the Occupy movement was going into hibernation for the winter...Comedy Congress is here to take an unapologetic look at current events and review the best and worst stories of 2011.
