‘Daily Show’: Jon Stewart Tackles Romney’s ‘Binders Full of Women’

You knew this was coming. On his program Wednesday night, “Daily Show” host Jon Stewart skewered the infamous “binders full of women” comment that Mitt Romney made during the second presidential debate.

“Couple of things,” said Stewart. “One, the women’s group was called MassGAP and they approached Governor Romney, not the other way around. And two, my guess is they did not refer to what they presented as a binder full of women, but perhaps as an organized collection of qualified resumes. But hey, Binder of Women, Book of Broads, Notebook of Nipples. Whatever.”

Stewart also chronicled Romney’s other debate missteps during the program. 

And a quick programming note: President Obama will be Stewart’s guest Thursday.
