    Hilarious

    Wanda Sykes is a supremely clever, original and incisive societal commentarian. There's no such word, commentarian, I'm told at dictionary.com, but there should be because that's what she is, more so than a 'mere' comedian.

    She's a fearless performer who comes off smelling like a rose in spite of her naughty-word-heavy material - she never seems crass or trashy, no matter what she's saying. In this special, she covers all the hot button stuff - politics, sex, homosexuality, abortion, racism, sexism, etc, etc. - and she does it brilliantly, in her own inimitably edgy style. Definitely worth a watch, maybe two.

    Jokes that didn't Age Well

    After the last three Presidents following W the jokes are sick and tired. And ironic entirely now that Joe Biden is in office...

    The non-political jokes are funny. ... but Lefties always gotta go there.

    If she would stay outta politics she would be a lot funnier.
