I like Jon Stewert also. Sometimes I do cringe at a particularly liberally-biased joke, but all-in-all I think his show is a hoot.

[ErnBatavia]

Is a light bulb flickering in Jon Stewart's thick skull finally?

Be patient...the 'Rats just haven't come out with their white paper yet; as soon as talking points are established, all will fall back into the appropriate party position.

[pissant]

true enough. LOL

[cyncooper]

Stewart: Do you think they're the guys to--do they understand what they've unleashed? Because at a certain point, I almost feel like, if they had just come out at the very beginning and said, "Here's my plan: I'm going to invade Iraq. We'll get rid of a bad guy because that will drain the swamp"--

That has indeed been the message from the very start. It got drowned out by the enemies of our country dems/media.

The Bush Doctrine

June 2002

excerpt:

Here is the crux of Mr. Bush’s liberty doctrine: “Our nation’s cause has always been larger than our nation’s defense. We fight, as always, for a just peace—a peace that favors human liberty. We will defend the peace against threats from terrorists and tyrants. We will preserve the peace by building good relations among the great powers. And we will extend the peace by encouraging free and open societies on every continent.”

The truth will always out no matter the efforts to silence it.

Take note, by contrast, how timely Mark Levin's book is:

I like Jon Stewert also. Sometimes I do cringe at a particularly liberally-biased joke, but all-in-all I think his show is a hoot.

I find that his best jokes seem to be aimed at the impotent, powerless Democrats than the Bush administration. He shows no quarter to the Democrats whereas Bush has seemed to earn a little respect --much to Stewart's dismay of course.

[Nicholas Conradin]

I watch The Daily Show quite often. The opening material is strictly scripted liberal cant. Stewart relies on a set of about a dozen practiced facial expression/contortions to elicit uproaring laughter from a sympathetic studio audience.

The interview segment of the show can sometimes be very revealing, though. In this case, Stewart rose above doctrinaire Bush-hating and his guest was definitely caught off-guard.

[rave123]

Don't fall for it.
The guy is still a liberal dork. He has admitted on a couple of other shows that maybe Bush had the right idea(after the Iraq elections) but he's still not willing to give in.
The show has some funny highlights but most of his show is extremely anti-Bush administration.

[pissant]

Not to worry. I never watch his lame show.

[rave123]

And she had two other stupid idiots to help her with that assumption. Conclusion -three stupid heads are not better than one smart one.

Soderberg: "There's always hope that this might not work."<\i>

Osama could not have said it better! Not having the opportunity to edit does have a tendency to bring out the truth.

[verity]

"Soderberg: Well, I think, you know, as a Democrat, you don't want anything nice to happen to the Republicans, and you don't want them to have progress."

Another example of obstructionism.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Soderberg: There's always hope that [Bush's social, political, and economic reform agenda in the region] might not work.

Enough said. All you need to know about the left.

[Niteranger68]

ATTENTION: Jon Stewart is NOT funny! Jon Stewart has NEVER been funny! He is also NOT witty, intelligent, entertaining, or interesting. We do not need this sphincter on our side!

[mowkeka]

Listen to Soderberg root against the United States. It just goes to prove what Limbaugh has been saying all along: bad news for the United States is good new for Democrats.

[pissant]

Don't worry, he ain't on our side. But even some idiots can read the writing on the wall.

[pissant]

and good news is bad news for this hag's book sales. Too funny.

[Jhensy]

Anyone who would publicly back John Kerry the way he did, putting his reputation as an equal-opportunity offender/comedian/pundit on the line, has a whole lot of stupid in him that will take more than 3 months to get rid of.

[hinckley buzzard]

Soderberg: It's scary for Democrats, I have to say.

Scary. Imagine. The success of freedom is scary to them.

[ariamne]

It must be painful to be completely on the wrong side of history and then to slowly realize it.
