Actually, I disagree on one thing. I've never found Stewart funny in the least. His talk show sucked. I've never even smirked at anything he's ever said. Sad how his smarmy excuse for wit is the political commentary of today. This guy couldn't carry PJ O'Rourke's jock.

I agree with your assesment. Stewart isn't funny. The daily show WAS funny, but that was with craig kilborn. With stewart, it's just pathetic.

Stewart's definitely over-rated. I will occasionally stop on it. The only memorable clip to me was the announcing of the
new Iraqi currency, finishing with "However, the jury is still out on the Susan B. Anthony one dinar coin..."

Of course he shouldn't be taken seriously! He's a comedian.

He has his moments, but it's not as if he's a roaring bag of hilarity.

Whenever I watch Stewart's show I'm always left with the impression that he and his cohorts might as well just get done on their knees and scream into the camera, "PLEASE, for the love of God and all that's decent in the universe, PLEASE, don't vote for Bush!!!" It really has become that transparent...
