Jon Stewart Rips U.S. Attack On Libya: 'Don't We Already Have Two Wars?' (VIDEO)

near election time, he really let us all down. I too am against our involvement in Libya at this time, but Jon Stewart is completely useless right now.

He would not talk about it, would not help out activists who were trying so hard to raise awareness.

Now, he cracks jokes about how they stole it. Pretty fucking useless!

When Bush was caught talking to Karl Rove on his earpiece during the presidential debates with Kerry....again John Stewart was on vacation and never brought it up.

Bush interrupted Karl Rove and said 'let me finish' in the middle of an answer he was giving...it was so obvious. That alone would have ended any chance Bush had of reelection, cheating, can't even speak for himself...but nothing from John Stewart who has the ear of millions.

He now goes after Obama when he should still be going after Bush, exposing the lies until we win, till these people finally have to shut up about what a great leader he was.

Instead John Stewart has all the Bush administration officials on to help sell their books.

He organized a rally that had absolutely no point to it, then he slammed some of our best liberal anchors on MSNBC, equating them with Beck and Hannity. He can't hide behind the "I'm just a comedian" line when he's obviously influencing so many people. I wonder how many people stayed home last November after Stewart convinced them that dems and repubs are the same.

BTW...A big "hello" to all of you armchair warriors out there!

Don't you just love a war? People dying, people angry at us - isn't that neat-o!

Ouch!!

:o

Until the next bogeyman is created to provide the really, really, really, "necessary" war.

Simplicity rules on DU.

Gaddhafi is a bad guy among a world of bad guys (not excluding our own bad guys). So was Saddam and Mullah Omar. So are a host of other "leaders" around the world. Some of them elected democratically.

We have "intervened" all over the world to "protect our vital interests", "spread democracy", "stop Communism", "support our allies", or, now, for "humanitarian" reasons to "protect" the people from their own government. The graveyards are jampacked with the victims of our "humanitarianism" and love of "freedom".

I've been around long enough to see bogeymen like Fidel, Ho Chi Minh, Patrice Lumumba, Salvador Allende, Noriega, Daniel Ortega, Chairman Mao, Kim Il Sung, even Nelson Mandela. All of them painted as scary, murderous, tyrants, out to steal our TVs and women.

I've seen us "intervene" in a number of civil wars and kill millions of people to promote democracy and dethrone the Bogey Man. Libya is just another chapter in our long career of "picking up the White Man's burden" and bringing light and happiness to the lesser breeds.

He has lost me. Permanently this time. I feel ashamed for ever have trusted him.

But I'm sure your professor's platitudes impress you more.

one way or another.

I don't know if I've ever seen this board so evenly divided on an issue.

I just don't get: War is good if a Democrat is behind starting it? We can't afford adequate healthcare, or public education in this country but 110 tomahawk missile at $1MILL a pop is okay for some here? I'm shocked.

"You can't simultaneously fire teachers and Tomahawk missiles."

Bravo Jon! :applause:
