I think he’s funny. At least he was 10 years ago, the last time I paid any attention to him. I saw him do standup at Carolines in NYC and it was very funny. I took my wife on one of our first dates to be in the studio audience of the Daily Show—this was the first year he took over that show and you could basically just walk in to the show. Maybe he’s gotten unfunny over time, as Letterman did, but he definitely has done funny stuff.
That little video they did on the McDonalds toy ban in San Fran was really funny.
But....I keep in mind where his allegiance lies.
