Kim Jong Il: Late night TV the poorer without him

Perhaps  no dictator in modern times  has been more pilloried than Kim Jong Il -- name, size, glasses,  megalomaniacal personality disorder have all come under comedic scrutiny.

Here are two famous instances -- including that one from "Team America," via Trey Parker and Matt Stone, "You are useless to me, Alec Baldwin." It probably trended more Sunday night on Twitter than the Dear Leader's death.

And, of course, David Letterman. Letterman more than anyone on Earth has turned Kim Jong Il into an object of abject merriment; without Kim Jong Il to kick around anymore, Dave will be adrift.
