Now THAT was Ownage
I dont know if ownage is a word, but yesterday I fought the claim that Jon Stewart owned Bolton in his interview. Today though, I can honsetly say, that Jon Stewart, with the help of that Lincoln expert, just destroyed Bolton.

21. Bolton interviews available on Comedy Central
First night's interview w/ John Bolton...
http://www.comedycentral.com/motherload/index.jhtml?ml_video=84011

Followup segment with Presidential historian, and Lincoln expert, Doris Kearns Goodwin...

Though we may now want to put a lot of eggs in the Doris basket: 'Doris Kearns Goodwin, Liar'.

4. I was wondering if Bolton even believed the bullshit he was spewing
last night. If he went to an American school he got left waaaaay behind.

16. Indeed. I've not even read Sandburg's 'Lincoln' and knew he was bullying and bluffing.
He's an appalling liar.

10. Christ, Jon ripped Bolton apart like a fat kid rips apart a birthday cake...
I caught Bolton's bullshit about Lincoln last night, and I'm glad the Daily Show followed through with this bit... Leave it to the Daily Show to provide real coverage of the news...

15. Bolton pulled his typical bullying tactic last night -- outright lying with panache and DARING Jon
... to fight back. Well, he'll need a surgeon to remove tonight's slam-dunk.

18. I was waiting for Jon to say "So, Mister Ambassador, tell us all about your swinging days at Plato's
Retreat--were you there for fun, or for the swell salad bar???

19. It doesn't make any difference.
Jon handed Bolton his ass, and Jon and Doris Kearns Goodwin handed him his ass again tonite..... but .... that ass-handing will never see the light of MSM-day.

The fucking wingnuts will hear that Lincoln bullshit again and again from that weasel and believe it.

Nothing ever breaks thru.

20. Unbelievable!
For anyone who may have missed him yesterday, his recap was excellent. Even better than just trying to interview Bolton yesterday.
