Jon Stewart: We Just Need to Protect This Country From Terrorists … With Beards
"The Daily Show" host pokes holes in all the ridiculous Fox News arguments about prisoner of war Bowe Bergdahl and his father Bob being Muslim terrorists and points out that facial hair is not evidence that someone is a terrorist. Case in point: the beardless Las Vegas shooting suspects.“The Daily Show” host pokes holes in all the ridiculous Fox News arguments about prisoner of war Bowe Bergdahl and his father Bob being Muslim terrorists and points out that facial hair is not evidence that someone is a terrorist. Case in point: the beardless Las Vegas shooting suspects.
Watch as Jon Stewart gets a visit from his conscience in the form of Disney’s Jiminy Cricket as well as highlights all the reasons why the media need to stop jumping to conclusions about Bergdahl and start paying attention to the true terrorism occurring within our national borders thanks to gun nuts.
