Did the "political conversation" just turn? Must-see Jon Stewart

[Barry Green]

Okay, now, this is really interesting...

For those who've never watched him, Jon Stewart is perhaps the furthest-left commentator/personality on the air, and unapologetically so. So to see a segment like this, airing from the fortress of the liberal side... well, maybe the conversation is about to turn.

Watch it. It's entertaining, but it's perhaps a significant turning point.

He's not the only one.

 

[hkusp1]

Even rats know when to abandon a sinking ship.

 

[Younggun]

Guess he should have concentrated a little more on the first amendment.

Damn freedom screwin up a perfectly good agenda.

 

[stdreb27]

He's just pissed they got caught...

 

[mitchntx]

How many recall Watergate and how no could possibly believe that the President could deliberately try and get away with trying to fool the people of the United States?

At least Obama had the media on his side ... what a total cluster-F this administration is.

 

[Barry Green]

That's kind of what the Jon Stewart clip seemed to foreshadow... that even someone like Jon Stewart is seeing that the administration is acting in a not-straightforward way, and that those on the right who've been ranting about some conspiracy "to take their guns" ... may actually have a point...

 

[Big Phil]

Should they all be packing their bags?
Yep
Are they?
Nope

Don't count your chickens before they hatch... it will take a lot more before they admit the one they idolize is just another politician. Regardless of any scandals, they will close ranks and be absolutely supportive when the mid terms and Presidential election roll around.

Just like running Palin post GW, maybe now is the time for the dems to launch the SS HilLary

I'd hardly call stewart the furthest left, he's definitely a lefty but he's watchable and will rag on leftist occasionally.

That being said, I might just start going to church again if this @sshole gets taken down. This corruption makes typical politics look sterile.

They will lose a lot of more centered voters. Already did in the last election and with the tax hikes they are sure to lose many more.

Far left will always vote far left, that's not enough to carry them though.

 

[Shuutr]

Jon spreads the razzing around. Conservatives are crazy and liberals are Idiots seems to be a running theme on the crazy. Both lie A LOT and get caught.

 

[mitchntx]

Oh yes ... even if Piers Morgan tweets a global apology, buys a lifetime membership to the NRA and gets a FFL so that he can personally purchase and then give away AR15s to every NRA member, he can still suck my *#@!.

[vmax]

screw all of them libs just now bitching about him

I feel zero comradery with those people, they knew what he was when they got him in office, both times

Suck it John and Piers...piss on you all, it's your fault in the first place

 

[itchin]

I agree. **** lefty douche nozzles.

Pay close attention to what he's actually saying. He's not pissed that the government abused their power. He's pissed that their abuse gives us leverage.

 

[matefrio]

Ok, I keep thinking about this song from the title.

 

[Edwarethered]

Had to bring Human League into this didn't you? That's just painful.
