the way I see it...

Directed by Paul Miller

200658 min6.7 / 10

A high-energy stand-up special built on caustic political and social commentary delivered with aggressive irreverence and dark humor.

Lewis Black stars in his second HBO solo special, an all-new hour of frenetic, take-no-prisoners stand-up comedy, taped before a live audience at the Warner Theatre in Washington, DC. Lewis Black: Red, White & Screwed features Black's opinions and insights into such issues as the State of the Union, abortion, frozen embryos, defecation habits, fossils, bad language, FEMA and, of course, Dick Cheney's aim.
