Jon Stewart vs. Bill Kristol

[pokerfan]

That was awesome. Missed it this week but caught the repeat this morning.

Kristol: "You're reading The New York Times too much."
Stewart: "Bill, you WORK for The New York Times!"

So why are you and McCain calling him a dangerous radical if you don't mean it?

"Bill Kristol, aren't you ever right?"

[DS1]

1. "If accuracy was a measure of job performance, why are you still a pundit"

bang zoom burn!

[Gregorian]

2. Kristol was so transparent one could finally see right through him.

Yet he kept talking his points.

It was as though he didn't believe them himself. But he was a robot that could do nothing else. Pathetic. JOn brought him down to size.

4. He's a self-yanking Chatty Cathy doll whose batteries are running low

Can barely muster the energy to pull the chain and spew one more talking point.

He was forced to admit that Obama is not a radical. I guess that's something. :eyes:

3. Here's the entire episode if any wants to see it.

5. Love the part about the community organizer in Ohio

who usually votes conservative but is campaigning and voting for Obama! :bounce:

7. Agreed. The entire episode was on target, well paced, and very funny.

6. Kristol was playing the role of muse for Stewart and villain for the live audience.

Stewart was in great form, as was Kristol. It was a classic Daily Show interview filled with belly laughs and ending with a pretty good feeling about the interviewee.

As Jon said, Kristol is welcome back any time.
