Sacha Cohen, Comedy Genius

I laughed harder than I have in weeks when I read this article. I have seen the Borat character before, so I could just hear him saying these things. I wish to God he could have made it past White House press security to question the President of Kazakhstan. That would have been priceless. I mean, what's wrong with Cohen. It's not like he's a male prostitute and a figure on gay porn sites. Oh yeah, they did let one of those in a couple of years ago. In fact, they invited him in. Oh well.

Like our Xers Stewart, Colbert, and the South Park boys, this 35 year old fellow seems to have a knack for very bitter, very ironic, yet extremely funny humor. How would he compare to the Monty Python guys?
