Jon Stewart swapped his independence for parenthood over the holiday weekend.




The Daily Show host and his wife, graphic designer Tracey Stewart, "joyfully" announced the birth of their son on Saturday in New York, according to a statement released by publicist Matt Labov.


The baby, named Nathan Thomas, is the first child for the couple.



Congratulations!!!

4. Isn't that why Colbert was filling in for Stewart?

He did a pretty good job. He's no Jon but he still is funny. Especially on the Edwards story and the Saddam story where he poked fun at David Lee Roth.

Bibbidy Bop!

9. Double Dichotomy

I'm happy he made a kid.

I'm sad he didn't adopt.

I'm disgusted that people who would breed a new child into a world which is going to descend into darkness in ~30 years. My parents are mad at what the neo-cons have been doing. Imagine 30 more years of neocon or centrist rule and the oil stops being cost effective? *SHATTER*
