109. Thank you for that
And I was not ignoring you I think I answered your questions.
First off I did not think he was funny at all. Secondly, If you didn't know what the "history" was and you saw him for the first time you were scratching your head as to why everyone says he is so good. He resorted to name calling and he looked basically like a fidgety seventh grade rebel without a cause. I would have preferred to see the witty intellect that he has on his show.
That said I appreciate you saying I have a right to say what I feel and I actually didn't change the post saying "mind of your own" so I could apologize to those who seriously thought that Stewart was good without people knowing why.I also left it up because I think there is unfortunately a sheepish mentality in some of the threads. Rational dialog is the way to go.

By the way this is a stupid issue to have over a hundred threads on especially since I agree with Stewart's premise that CNN is right-biased, but I think cross fire is the exception. I actually wish he did better because if anyone knows of my past writings I have constantly criticized CNN for giving Bush a free ride especially on the Iraq war. But when you go about criticizing wrongly you give those who are wrong a sense of validity which they should not have.
Furthermore I even had a little "Jon Stewart for President" promotion going before Kerry was nominated so I am certainly not anti-Stewart even if I don't spell his name right.

Once again to those who felt I insulted them I certainly did not --and I apologize.
I am glad I found the DU as I agree with all of you on the main issues.
