Jon Stewart just vindicated Sharpton....

[shoopnyc123]

It was amazing! He had ALL of the pudits FUMING over Sharpton! He said it was their first piece of "Red meat"! Jon S is the man!

[Cambist]

1. I saw it too.

It was great. Al Sharpton is a geneous. I hope Kerry appoints him to a cabinat post.

[Sparky McGruff]

3. Press secretary! Sharpton as Press Secretary!

Now, THAT would be fascinating.

[buycitgo]

7. harharharharhar

that would be most EXCELLENT

he is VERY difficult to get the best of

I would love to see that

won't happen, but what a sight that'd be!

[Bozita]

11. A perfect answer to the Pat Robertsons and Jerry Falwells

Terrific idea!

[umtalal]

2. please tell me what he said. I missed it.

btw, the rev. is on the travis smiley show on pbs, kcet in Los Angeles.

[steely]

4. After Jon showed the pundits and grabbed some of their

soundbites regarding how blacks would not appreciate the Reverend's comments, he showed repeated shots of the audience exhorting the speaker to continue and demonstrating gratitude - during which Jon would sarcastically comment on how angry (NOT) black conventioneers were. That's just one example - it was great.

[umtalal]

5. that prick mathews ( please excuse my anger)

I watched the speech and I was telling my husband look at the black democrats. They are eating it up.

Friggin lier.

[Sugarbleus]

6. Just for the record. I'm a white granny and Al spoke loud and

clear TO ME as well. I was ON MY FEET.

Truth is truth no matter who speaks it.... I totally appreciate the man's courage. GO AL SHARPTON!!

[Dem2theMax]

8. It was more than great. It was perfect!

I wish Jon was required viewing for every citizen of the US.
He makes it so simple, maybe the freepers would actually GET it. :evilgrin:

[kodi]

9. wait a minute, howard finemen is a black man who has paid his dues

can you imagine the hysterical hypocrisy spoken by those pundit putzes?

fineman understand racial issues blacks face about as much as a man understands the pains of child birth

[msanthrope]

12. Frankly, Fineman, Kearns-Goodwin, and Tweety all ought to be

ashamed of themselves. Just disgraceful, the cabal of them, nodding their heads and clucking like old white biddies.

Yeah, each one of them has loads of street cred.

And Brian Williams ought to be slapped silly.

Jackasses!!!

[Ms. Clio]

13. I expect little more from the "journalists," but Kearns-Goodwin?

What a complete ho.

Makes the plagiarism much easier to understand, now.

[Gold Metal Flake]

14. HAH! Brian "Skat" Williams!

Take that nickname anyway you wanna take it, baby!

"...riffing on whatever you were riffing on..."

"Brian, YOU WERE THERE!!"

[KharmaTrain]

10. Stewart Was Pissed About MSGOP Cutting The Speech

as was I...Tweety just decided to barge in and start the trashing, as did Howard the Duck and Joey the Intern Killer. Feinman actually said that blacks really didn't need to hear what Sharpton had to say. Stewart answered that with shots of blacks at the convention cheering on Sharpton. Ooops. Now let's see if they can pan the Repugnican convention and will we see as many black or latino faces that aren't either parking cars or carrying in the food.

[jdj]

15. yeah, and the moment of zen, where the Daily show

shows that Brit Hume clone going " when you did a riff on whatever you did a riff on" to Sharpton, then they cut to Sharpton at the part where he was saying "this vote was soaked in the blood of martyrs/ This vote is SACRED to us"!!!

Awesome, and MSRNC pretended not to understand. Disgusting and Shameful, and thanks to the Daily Show for pointing it out.
