Rich Hall – Original Review
Note: This review is from 2008
But he doesn’t just offer Bush-bashing; he’s got fine gags about John McCain and Sarah Palin, too. In fact, his jibes about the Republican candidate’s decrepitude are so vicious, memorable and hilarious that the Obama campaign could co-opt them for a hugely effective attack ad.
Even his material that's not overtly political has a social insight, often about the lazy arrogance of Western consumers. Back that up with some pin-sharp jokes and relaxed quick-thinking audience banter, and you have an impressive act indeed.
Hall also appears in the personal of jailbird singer Otis Lee Crenshaw.
