Do you think Sacha Cohens humor pushes the line?

Dont get me wrong. His stuffs funny but I saw Bruno and I was like...WHHHOOAAA
 
Some of his material may seem crass, but he's a satirist. And he's catching our attention in a way so blunt and in-your-face (which--by the way--is what seems to appeal to the American public--crass humor).

He gets his point across--most of the time. It's disturbing how many people -don't- realize that his films are satires... I'm sure that many people thought that Jonathan Swift was pushing it too far, too, back in the eighteenth century.

I do feel a bit uneasy comparing Swift to Cohen, though...
 
There is a difference in pushing the line and being stupid and retarded for the shock value of it.
