Mike Pence was incredibly DUMB.
Report thisThere isn’t much to be said about the sadness of the Iraqi people and the stupidity of the american government
and the guilt of all who were cheerleaders for this war. The patriots have for the most part quit waving the oil and blood soaked flag.
But the venom of defeat still spews forth from their lips.
The human race has just lost one round with the quest for civilization.

For a television show that ardently claims it is not a news program they sure like to push it. Sending a correspondent to Iraq? OK, he wasn’t doing any serious journalism, but this is probably about as helpful to Stewart’s argument that they don’t do journalism as the time Al Gore came on the show and said it was one of the best sources for news on TV. Doesn’t matter, really. The fourth estate’s having a block party to celebrate selling out years ago. - TheEnd
