9. Sorry about that, I read it as "What's a false..." because I had made a spelling error.

13. Many are criticizing KO for mentioning the left with the right when it comes to rhetoric..
In his special comment I believe yesterday. When Jon Stewart said that the left and right are both guilty of over the top rhetoric, KO criticized him for saying that.

14. Well, I think both are wrong about the "rhetoric" being equal.
The right wing rhetoric is laden with violence :(

6. no, Jon Stewart should apologize for making it , and i think it was Maddow
who criticized him for it. Jon wasn't up to the Maddow's level in that debate. i felt kind of bad for him. he was drifting off in some weird explanations.
