A commentary, I think, on the public understanding of basic human decency. Or lack thereof.

11:23 First commercial break in the big Jon Stewart -- Jim Cramer interview. So far it's Stewart in a rout. Cramer's making a fool of himself; I actually feel a bit bad for him. It's pure train wreck time. Hard to watch but impossible to turn away.
From last night's Daily Show - it's right at the end of the video embedded below the fold.
McCain: You tell any enemy when you're leaving, and they'll say, "Right, fine, we'll just wait until you leave and we'll take over."
Last night, Stewart interviewed Marilynne Robinson. I do not expect attack dog tactics from Stewart, ever, but I also didn't expect him to so totally buy into her premises.
Maureen Dowd has a cute profile/interview of the Comedy Central duo in the new Rolling Stone:
John Stewart has done nothing but slam anything conservative and promote liberalism. I used to watch, then when Obama came in, instead of attacking the gaffs that Obama did as he did with bush, he still attacks conservatives. I don't watch stewart any more.
That's funny - problem - why shold Stewart bash Obama? Limbaugh, Bachman, Back and Hannity are so ridiculous that it would be idiotic NOT to pick on them. Stewart is however a liberal - so why should pick on someone with the same ideas? Because of balance of media? That's a stupid assumption - Comedy Central is not a news network and so as long as Stewart brings viewers he should pick on however brings the most laughs - which is in this case the weirdos on the right end. Has anyone seen Glenn Back's 9-12 project? This totally deserves to be ridiculed.
