I don't really care about the Republican bashing but there is no way that you can say they are equal. Stewart's jokes about Bush and Republicans are politically charged while his jokes about Kerry or Clinton and then Dems were mostly just silliness.

1) That clip is hilarious.

2) He is completely right, which is what matters. And that direct confrontation is the only way people will listen.

The problem is that Stewart has forgotten he is a comedian and that his show is not a real news show. He comes off bitter and hateful much of the time and it distracts from an otherwise hialrious show.

I like the half serious half comedian thing. The fact of the matter is he presents information in an intelligent matter.

He should be taken somewhat seriously, his show is certainly better then CNN, CBS, FOX and all the other news shows. And he's not even trying to report the news.

My problem isn't so much with his coverage of The President but more with how he rightly takes every oppotunity to pick out every Republican hypocrisy but I don't see him do the same with the Democrates who are the same. Instead Democrates are just portayed as being "not as good at polictics" as Republicans while conservatives are always either stupid or dishonest.

[/ QUOTE ]

He is honest about his bias though. You don't go watch the show expecting to see Bush seen in a good light.

He does have republican guests on the show, including campaign managers for Bush during the last election.

Just realize it is fake news. Bush is the person in the spotlight. Obviously the biggest name in politics will be the president.

Maybe you could look at him as a funny pundit that isn't a complete mouthpiece for a certain party. At least he admits his biased, compared to every other news source out there.

I like the Daily Show, I don't really like Jon Stewart, never really did though. He's always kind of annoyed me. I got a kick out of hearing about him crying on election night though. I miss Kilborn(sp) hosting the show, he was better.
