Obama & Ryan: The Comedy Team

At the State of the Union, it was funny to see Paul Ryan, the House Speaker, making sure he never smiled or laughed or gave any indication he was having any fun. President Obama had a bunch of great zingers, and Ryan never cracked a smile. That's why I think they should become the next Abbott & Costello: President Obama can make all the jokes, and Paul Ryan can remain the stone-faced "straight man". He opposes same-sex marriage, so he's doubly the perfect "straight man". I hope they release a DVD of their greatest skits.
