“The Daily Show” host was just being playful last night when he joked that President Bush could have been caught on the open mike talking about German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s “camel toe” (a lewd sexual reference). But in light of the now-infamous unsolicited massage Bush gave to Merkel, Stewart is looking prophetic all of a sudden.

(Seriously, what are the odds? Jon Stewart was joking about worst-case scenario–of Bush making an innappropriate sexual gesture towards Merkel when he thought no one was looking–and then it actually came true the very next day!)

Stewart:

Naturally the media making a big deal out of the President cursing. ‘Ooooh salty language.’ Do you know how lucky we are that that was all that was caught? I’m impressed the President was on topic. You know, there’s just as good a chance that the microphones could have picked him up pointing out some Merkel camel toe. We don’t really know. Talking about a rash on his balls. At least he was on topic, people.
