John Stewart on Crossfire

Damn, John Stewart is really coming after the Crossfire hosts. Not what I expected, and I can tell that it's not what they expected either. Tucker is being an ass, coming after John for not giving hard questions to Kerry. It's a comedy show, come on. John comes back by saying, "my show comes after a show featuring puppets making prank calls." Wow, it is hard to watch but John is completely right about this, he's saying that Crossfire needs to be more honest and not just puppets of the parties. He's acting for direct debate over the issues, not more rhetoric. OK I gotta go, John just called Tucker a dick!

I just googled, now I see what Jon was trying to do. Check it out

My new "Rolling Stone" has a cover story featuring Jon Stewart. I always liked his work. Remember him as the chemistry teacher in "The Faculty"? Too funny!

I don' t know. As he said on Crossfire today the comedy is done more on the absurd actions leaders make, not on the party itself. He also admitted that it would be a lot harder without the absurd group that's in the whitehouse now. Is Rush Limbaugh having a hard time now that his group controls a majority of all the branches of government. This is the time where you say, "touche'"
