Thank You Daily Show!

[Hep]

Yep, finally last week The Daily Show provided us with the best commentary on the attitude of Dean opponents that I have seen in the media so far. The Daily Show remains head and shoulders above their competition, mixing political commentary with political satire.

They hit the nail right on the head Last week, and in rerun yesterday evening. Here is a link to the story:

1. I think it was more a slam on the media

rather than any of the other candidates. But, you're right. It was hysterical - and dead on.

3. You're right,

although some here should watch and realize that they're being mocked, and rightly so!

4. It was a direct slam on the "Dean is angry" slander

Which comes from the media, the other dem candidates, and the Dean bashers on this board.

2. Also, check out the debate coverage

5. That was great!

I love the Daily Show. They really put things in perspective by using humor. I totally agree with this segment. Thanks for posting this. :)

6. It is really sad that....

we have to rely on the comedy channell to get the news. I mean that. The so-called liberal mainstreem media is unwatchable!

7. That was hilarious.

My hip youngsters turned me on to that show. Funniest part was when Colbert rattles off a list of Bush failures and questions why Dean is angry.

8. Some great lines

"It's one thing to believe Bush is leading this country to a bleak future of massive debt, increased terrorismand and environmental catastrophe, but does Dean have to be so mad about it?"

"If America liked angry presidents, JFK would have beaten all those secretaries instead of nailing them."

"Dean's anger has been widely reported. It doesn't matter what I've seen, it's been widley reported and that makes it factesque."

"Besides, Dean's on the cover of Newsweek this week, and you don't get on the cover of that thing unless you're a complete jackoff."

"Alright, you want facts, I'll give you actual facts. Rumor is, once when a reporter asked him about Medicare, Dean responded by tearing the head off a goat."
