Jon Stewart schools “Dallas dipsh*ts” who think Obama is invading Texas

Jon Stewart broke the number one rule of the Lone Star State last night and messed with Texas, ripping theories surrounding the Jade Helm 15 military exercises — including, of course, the state governor’s theory that the government was planning a “Texas Takeover.”

“You know who’s calling it ‘Texas Takeover?’” Stewart asked. “Lonestar Lunatics. Dallas Dipshits. The United States government already controls Texas. Just borrow a textbook from a neighboring state — it’s all in there.”

Stewart went on to call Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) “adorable” for thinking the State Guard could take on the U.S. military: “It’s like a little dog growling at a big dog, or an eight-year-old picking a fight with the Predator,” he said.

He should be ashamed of himself for such hate talk.

Much as we should avoid criticizing the message of Fox News... otherwise we hate free speech.
