Separated at birth?

One of my FB friends had this pic, so I thought I would share:

1. A slight resemblance, but Benny made people laugh (in a good way, that is). n/t

[Ship of Fools]

2. I agree with you on the laugh part. But, WOW! I KNEW he reminded me of someone.

Anyway, I always thought Benny Hill's schtick a little over-the-top for my sense of humor. His goofy pervert schtick suits Marcus to a T, though, does it not?

4. Amen ! eom

3. I think

Marcus Bachmann makes us laugh, too. And both are/were masters of absurdity.

5. B. H. was a very intelligent, thoughtful man who was an extraordinarily versatile entertainer.

The other person pictured is not worthy of public attention.

7. I agree in spirit

I never particularly cared for BH, but point is taken. We're not talking about what Benny Hill himself might have been like, but about his "clownish" image, and how that suits Marcus Bachmann to a T!

6. That's a match. Benny was a troubled soul--but way nicer than Nutty Marko! nt

8. Bachmann and his wife

belong in a carnival. Together they are the greatest team of freaks that have emerged in any form of politics ever.
