Jon Stewart agrees to debate o'reilly

From politico.com:

It's rare to see Jon Stewart and Bill O'Reilly on the same set.

But the late-night comedian has agreed to appear on “The O'Reilly Factor” to debate the controversy surrounding rapper Common's recent appearance at the White House.

I hope Stewart knows better than going on o'reilly's show if it is taped in advance.

1. I bet Jon is smart enough to have his own camera crew as part of the deal!

2. "Shut up! Just shut up! Cut his mic! CUT HIS MIC!"
There's not much to be accomplished here.

4. Why does he do this...
Hasn't he been on O'Reilly's show several times at this point? At least once that I know of. Of all the idiotic subjects and stances that O'Reilly takes I wonder why Stewart agreed on this one?

I know by now this is a hackneyed point to make but I hope he straight up asks if O'Reilly and Fox would be giving the same degree of coverage if Johnny Cash were invited to the White House. Because apparently, you know...he shot a man in Reno. Just to watch him die! Or if Ted Nugent was. Because......well, jesus christ pick any lyrics from that goober as examples.

5. It's okay to shoot a man in Reno, but shooting a cop...
Now that's a different story.

6. Well, I hope Jon demands
that there be no interruptions - otherwise O'Reilly will just bloviate and drown out anything good Jon has to say.

8. Jon is falling into a trap.
O'Reilly fans believe Stewart is a stupid liberal who hets PWNed by O'Reilly.

I don't see where there is any upside in giving the O'Reilly liar more publicity.

12. This "interview"
was heavily edited. And now they will have Bernard Goldberg, the perpetual broom up his butt poster child of conservative outrage to analyze what Stewart said. :puke:

Can O'Rielly be even more transparent?
