Jon Stewart deserves our thanks every day
While we are talking about our appreciation of Tweety and Deborah Norville over the past few days, let's not forget the man who zings the Bush administration day after day after day, Jon Stewart on the Daily Show.

He has been just skewering the Swift Liars and last night did a little expose about Bush rallies bussing in "supporters" and then instructing them to "cheer loud for the President".

Did a great bit on Laura and George Bush and stem cells the other night . . .

He deserves our praise and support every night.

1. I find appreciating Tweety akin to seeing the plus side of bubonic plague
on the other hand, Stewart can't be praised enough.

4. I don't buy cable tv....so I don't watch his show....
....but when I have seen him..it's a breath of fresh air...on the other hand...it's put in the context of entertainment so it's not taken seriously and it's all taken as a JOKE to the idiots out there who don't pay attention to the details. x(

I'll need to buy several copies for all of my friends who, like me, have crushes on Jon.

He doesn't even claim to be a journalist, yet he's a better journalist than 95% of the staff at the "news" shows.

We shall call it the Stewartath and worship and honor his glory.
