A conversation with John Stewart where he fucking pops the media bubble
If you didn't watch Jon on C-Span you missed out, the best thing about it is that he just completely unleased on the media and Bushco.

It was great, sure Jon strayed into his jewishness a bit, but that is one of the things I love about him. He is all over the place but, it was so effective.

One of my favorite lines, "I'm Joe Scarborough and you are in Scarborough County, we're your passport to bull shit."

He re-iterated one of my favorite point made on Crossfire, unlike th folks at CNN he can go to sleep at night.

God stuff, I am so proud of the way he completely dogged on every newspaper there, it was great, I love than man!

2. It was really outstanding.
The audience was so startled to hear honest conversation that they hardly knew how to react.

3. He's doing what we can't - speaking truth to power... and being a riot
in the process. He's great.

I liked that he has made the distinction that network means nothing now. It doesn't matter where on the dial the program is, as long as it's quality.

he is the most honest person talking right now.

Thank all DU for pointing to so many sites were I could get the Crossfire download so quickly.

7. The audience seemed to be all media types
and they seem to enjoy being abused.

8. That was the best part he totally ripped the entire press
to their faces, I loved it!

He even dropped a bomb on GE and MSGOP, about their manufacturing of weapons, it was beautiful.

He busted on Cheney for Iran, it was so great!

9. Profits from the uranium tipped
death missles part of the business (NBC) can pay for honest news!!! I loved that!

He sure was good - he is getting airtime so someone must agree with him.
