Apparently, if you are a comedian, you can get away with anything. Because "it's funny"! Of course, some of your bits might not go over well with your audience, but don't worry! It will only help your career, because that means you are now "edgy". Here are some suggestions for possible comedian material which has previously been viewed as "off-limits" or "inappropriate". Let's see if we can put on our comedian hats and find a way to make them funny:
Parkinsons
Youth Suicide
9-11 Hijackers
Kidney Failure
The holocaust
Rape
Cancer
Torture
School Violence
Barbara Walters
There is still one topic that hasn't made the "Now its funny" list, and that is President Barack Obama. This was made obvious at the White House Correspondence dinner, when he was the only one allowed to make fun of the new President. Typically this fundraiser dinner turns into a roast of our Commander in Chief. Wanda Sykes instead roasted President Obama's outspoken opponents, calling one treasoness. In the President's stand-up routine, he did a fine job poking fun at himself.

Most of the jokes that I have seen about those subjects also have to do with Bush and conservatives.
