But Borat has gone almost the length of its commercial run without public outcry - and, as far as I could tell, without a single cut from the original. In a random sampling, Lebanese audiences laughed at the same moments as did those in New York, though film critics at a special...

"I'm sure you've heard the same predictions I've heard," the President told them, reprising an applause line he uses in rally after rally. "The prognosticators have already decided...
...again sings the national anthem at a sports game; on the show it was a baseball game, here it’s a rodeo, and he actually sings a made-up Kazakh anthem to the tune of ours (one highlight: “Kazakhstan number one producer of potassium, other nations have inferior potassium”). These jokes are all still funny, but a satirist of Cohen’s skill could certainly have devised new tricks to play on Americans this time...
