Jon Stewart..

... and why he's the man!!

One of my favorite shows is The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. It's fake news, granted, but it also takes a satirical look at both Dems and 'Pubs. The truth is IN there. After listening to NPR, CNN, etc. etc. all day, all week, it's just warm, refreshing, and yes, often times enlightening.

Last Friday, Stewart was on CNN's Crossfire, and the transcript reads like a true gem.

"STEWART: See, the thing is, we need your help. Right now, you're helping the politicians and the corporations. And we're left out there to mow our lawns.

BEGALA: By beating up on them? You just said we're too rough on them when they make mistakes.

STEWART: No, no, no, you're not too rough on them. You're part of their strategies. You are partisan, what do you call it, hacks. "

He's rich, he's funny, and he makes me lots of money! Lichtenstein! whoops... See? GOLD, BABY!

For CNN's story of his visit, click here, but for a better take, there's the NY Times (requires registration) report here.

Love that Joker!
