I love “John Stuart Leibowitz”! Who else would point out the stupidity, arrogance, and out and out ignorance of the 109th?
I find it so hard to beleive these people are representing a less intelligent group of folks. If that is the case, the american school system need much improvement.
So happy to see them leave. Don’t let the door knob hit you where the good lawd split you!
Can I get an Amen?

It is entertainment as you say but has more news then most newscasts and certainly is more newsworthy then O’Reilly or Limpaugh and entertaining.

@ Ann,
He is a performer. The Daily Show is comedy, not news. It’s accepted practice for performers to adopt a stage name. His heritage isn’t a secret.

And all the while I see more and more homeless on the streets of Minneapolis and St. Paul MN. I see them where I have never ever seen a homeless person. Are we doing anything about Global Warming? Not really. And all the while the illegal war in Iraq goes on with the hope by some (like Baker) that the oil in the country becomes privatized. And all the while the military coming home are go without needs. And all the while children go without basic healthcare. And all the while those same children go without food. And the rich are living off the dividends they have earned during the time the rest of us go farther and farther into dept. Do nothing Congress? I wouldn’t call them that.

You mean this, from John Stuart Leibowitz? Why doesn’t he use his real name?
