Daily Show does it again

[buycitgo]

using wolf/condi interview in which she claims not to know whence all this talk about suspended elections comes

then Stewart pointed to a pictures of Soaries, bush, and ridge, saying Bush appointed them

then he said something like, well, she's just the national security adviser, and this is.....a matter of......national security

audience at it up

[AbbeyRoad]

1. I love the graphic

"War on Terror/Election 2004"

[Kathy in Cambridge]

2. Rob Corddry-Priceless!

refers to Florida disenfranchisement and No paper trail voting!

[MidwestMomma]

3. That was excellent

"America is safer..."

Now once again with a flourish

"America and the world are safer"

I love it when Jon talks to the video clips!

[Hippo_Tron]

4. BRILLIANT, the "voter shield"

I was falling out of my chair. And voting machines without a paper trail...

[LittleApple81]

5. The coverage on the Repug convention is great!

[LittleApple81]

8. The bullseye, and then "10,000 policemen protecting Bush*... more

men than he dedicated to track the guy who is trying to kill him!"

[milkyway]

6. Rob Corddry Senior Terror/Election Specialist was hilarious!

To protect from terrorists, certain states on the perimeter of the country will be set up as non-voting buffers (NY, Cal, etc.--all blue states) so that the interior (red) states can safely vote. To make up for the people not voting in the perimeter states, the voters in the interior states will be designated super-citizens and allowed to vote twice.

7. lol bush has more people protecting him at RNC than we have hunting OBL

10K+ police in nyc to protect them

[LiberalFighter]

19. 10,000 troops that could be in Iraq!!!

[sandraj]

9. Isikoff on now

trying to spin Spanish elections again as a victory for the terrorists.

Jon Stewart challenging it. "There were other issues involved there, etc." Also questioning whether there were political motives behind the terror alerts. He's deconstructing the party line pretty well I think.

[TacticalPeek]

16. Funny how Izzy rolls out Rove's spin on the Spanish elections,

and lets it just sit there. Then Jon FOLLOWS UP with facts, and then Izzy gets all "Oh yea, babe; probably the perception of the PM lying about the Basque guys doing it is what turned the election". Like he's running for something, instead of being a reporter. Sheesh.

Other time zones: TDSWJS is always the best ever.

17. The Daily Howler did an excellent debunking the Spanish election

From http://www.dailyhowler.com/dh031804.shtml (Spinning Spain):

...The contest in Spain had always been close between the governing Popular Party, which backed Mr. Bush’s policies, and the Socialists, who opposed them…

...(A)ccording to the (New York) Times:
1. In the final poll, on March 7, the Popular Party led, 42-38.
2. On March 14, they ended up losing, 43-38.

10. This was one of the best shows this year

Definitely catch the reruns if you missed it, or check the clips on his website tomorrow afternoon.

And remember, repeat after me...

The American people are safer.

[Catt03]

11. I can't get over how nervous some of the guests seem

when they walk out on the stage.

Mike Isikoff seemed a bit timid stepping out there.

[rumguy]

12. it was no fucking puff piece

13. it was no fucking puff piece

[welshTerrier2]

14. but won't that disenfranchise voters in all those blue states?

no problem, John ... we have a solution for that ... we're going to make all the people in the red states "supervoters" ... to make up for the lost blue state votes, we'll give all the supervoters two votes each ...

[Lex]

15. buycitgo, you are CORRECT--it was brilliant!

The Condi, Sories, Bush, Ridge thing. Postively brilliant!

Condi is so clueless.

[juajen]

18. I wouldn't call it clueless

Perhaps, disingenuous, criminally so.
