Weak Constitution



By Jon Stewart

Following the Boston bombing, the freedom lovers at Fox jettison Constitutional amendments like Han Solo dumping his cargo at the first sign of an Imperial cruiser.

Jon Stewart Tears Apart House GOP Over Sandy Aid



The House has only so far approved $9 billion of the $60 billion relief bill, and will take up the rest of it next week, because as Stewart put it, “what’s another week when you’ve been fucked for months?”

He scolded the sixty-seven House Republicans who voted against the bill and wondered why they would vote against the bill, asking, “What would Jesus, or any other human being that isn’t an asshole, do?”


Stewart ended by laying it on the line for the GOP:
“If you guys can’t vote for this, then we’re fucked for the next few years. And I’m not saying you’re responsible for all the problems facing our country, but you sure are making them a lot harder to fix.”

Bill O'Reilly: "Capitalism Drives Discourse



"The problem with the discourse situation in America is Capitalism...

You can make a lot of money by being an assassin. A lot of money. Whether your right-wing or left-wing. You go in and you're a hater Radio, cable, in print, whatever, you get paid.

And there are people who do that and they go in, they don't believe half the stuff they say and they just rip it up and they get paid a lot of money... They're phony's, um, and, capitalism drives that.

There are people, Americans, who want to hear hate... We have to live with it, freedom of speech."


O'Reilly sums up the state of political discourse in America, ironically portraying his own political career in a beautiful moment of honesty. (Comment by video poster)
