I'm sure you would want Franken at a party much more than Moore. BTW, I see no relation between Mort Sahl and these three lightweights. He told the truth and did (does?) shine the light on everyone. So does Lehrer. So does Stan Freeberg. So did Homer and Jethro. So did Steve Goodman, on occasions. The three mentioned here are attack dogs with little class and no self contol. They see what they can get away with and nothing more profound than that. IMHO, of course.
