Just who does Jon Stewart think he is?

"Nevertheless, there are many, including Feldman, who don't view Stewart and his program as above politics or partisanship. "The Daily Show's" popularity soared as a direct result of its relentless satirical broadsides against the Bush administration. While it certainly hasn't ignored Obama's foibles and missteps, the critique seems less frequent and more subdued. One telling statistic: During Bush's two terms, only one Cabinet member, Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings, appeared on the show. During President Obama's first two years, six Cabinet secretaries have been guests, plus the head of the EPA, and first lady Michelle Obama."

- Stupid statistic to point out. I'm sure many in the Bush administration were invited but chose not to come on due to the ridicule many of them would have faced. I vaguely remember Republicans sending out a memo telling their representatives not to go on the show.

I feel the article has completely missed the point. The "Rally to Restore Sanity" and Colbert's "March to Keep Fear Alive" are, at their core, satire, yes of Glen Beck's rally , but also of pretty much everything going on politically in this country right now.

John Stewart is a brilliant comedian who's core value is simple: life is too short to be so damn serious about everything. Lighten up, things are not that bad.
