Today Jon Stewart lit a match....
and soon the corporate media is going to burn.

Al Franken also addressed the media's responsibility on Wolf Blitzer only an hour later. He mentioned Stewart on the daily show and said Wolf should spend time reporting Bush's lies.

Hopefully this will ignite courage in those who appear on this infotainment shows.

1. Notice that Bob Barr chimed in very reasonably.
An honest debate requires an honest press!

6. It did take courage
and you know what? he did it becuase he knew it had to be done. there is no way we could have continued like this and not start fighting back. Stewart has open the flood gates for others to start chiming in!

5. Bob Barr and Al Franken are kicking ass.
WOW! What a day! I think Wolf was kind of liking it at the end. Maybe he hasn't completely sold his soul like Carlson and Begala.

Bob Barr was actually pretty convincing. I like his stand on the "so called War on Terror" and its effect on Civil Liberties.

KICK ASS! Swweeeeeeet!!!
