      Don't forget that they're going to make your grandmother eat dog food. That was a major plank in the Democratic platform when Gore was running. A personal favorite...

      And while we're on Gore - what about the earth warming 15+ degrees and sea level rising by 30+ feet and monster hurricanes and tornadoes killing us all, etc, etc, etc. The last 30 years of the environmental movement has all been about fear-mongering and little else...

            Glenn Beck's hysterics make it hard for me to take him seriously. Usually I can stay tuned to Greta or Bill-o for whole segments, but Beck is painful.

            I'm glad Stewart and Colbert exist to provide satire of the news and how it's covered. They fricasse MSNBC, CNN, and the like along with Fox, and for good reason. They're all horrible.

            It was also funny when they did the segment on the bitchy "Fox and Friends" lady and how she looked up czar on-air, despite graduating from Stanford and studying at Oxford.

              Brian Williams writing about the Daily Show:

              On occasion, when we’ve been on the cusp of doing something completely inane onNBC Nightly News, I will gently suggest to my colleagues that we simply courier the tape over to Jon’s office, to spare theDaily Show interns the time and trouble of logging our broadcast that night. That usually gets us to rethink the inane segment we were planning on airing.

                  This one is tasteless and insensitive. Calling someone's ideas retarded is one thing. Calling them a "retard" and using this song, which is nothing but a mean-spirited mockery of people who cannot make themselves better, is another. This gets my seal of disapproval.

                  Oh, and consider this hidden message a prophylactic STFU, Lingo.

                    Insensitive and offensive. Also tasteless.

                        One of these shows is on Comedy Central and the other is on a 24-hr news channel. Big difference.
                        The networks and deliveries may be different, but both are just lining their pockets by playing to a specific portion of the electorate.

                        I honestly don't think pundits -- or even politicians for that matter -- take this stuff as seriously as the general public does. It's a game, and they play it, laughing all the way to the bank.

                            All about boycotts.
