Hodgman regularly receives a paycheck from both the Daily Show and the Apple ad agency, among others. Because he is very funny. If that doesn't make him a "professional comedian," I don't know what does.
I love him. An intelligent riff. Who'd thunk it? The thing is that the whole fucking thing would have been over W's head. Thank God in heaven now he's gone (apologies to Roy Clarke).
@92BuickLeSabre: I thought the very last book, Children of Dune was a bit weaker than the first two. We're probably better off that Herbert stopped there. It might have devolved into an increasingly misogynistic and violent morass of money-grubbing sleaze.

Now, get back in the basement.

Am I allowed to like both Hodgman and Obama, and simultaneously think that Dune is tedious drivel?

That is all.
