You are really trying to manipulate this to fit your narrative.


I'm just trying to understand your use of 'regularly'. It isn't a tough concept. It isn't moving goal posts.

I'm trying to understand your use of that word.

Post more please. It happens so often, shouldn't be hard to provide evidence.

Back up your assertion of 'regularly'.

Otherwise, you may want to stfu.

I'm not going to post the hundreds of youtube videos just so you get your jollies off by saying you got me to post them. Sorry. They are there for your viewing pleasure.

Cool.

So your generalization has no merit and is up to me to disprove. That's cool.

I'm curious on what you think the % breakdown is from Stewart regarding critiquing GOP/Bush vs Obama/Liberals over these past 1200 (roughly) shows?

'Regularly' I would assume puts it around 50/50? Is that your assertion?

I have no reason to search for it since I didn't make the assertion.

Keep up.

I watch the show on a semi-regular basis and see Stewart frequently makes jokes at Obama's expense. If you don't watch, then you have no dog in this fight. If you do, then you already know that of which I speak and are simply lying. Either way there is no basis for your claims here.

I don't know, and I don't particularly care. I don't base my sense of self-worth of how closely I can approximate his level of liberalness.

If I had to venture a guess, I'd say 60/40 republican/democrat jokes since Obama was elected. It was probably 75/25 back when Bush was president. Having a democrat in office gives far more softball opportunities to make jokes at their expense.

He's a democrat, and he makes no bones about it. I disagree with his politics for the most part, but the show is funny regardless.

Regularly in no ay implies equally, so no. Some of the victim complex neo-cons on this board insist that the media never attacks Obama in any fashion, which was the entire premise of my entrance into this thread.

I've watched here and there. I don't mind the show. I understand who he panders to. It doesn't bother me honestly.

Fair enough. Seems low, but whatever.

Agree.

That's what I was asking you. Just was curious on how you defined that.

It's all good. I really don't care about some show on Comedy Central.

The sadly amazing thing is why does anyone give a shite what Stewart says?

Take people for what they are worth, (millions of dollars in this case.)

Don't hold someone's opinions highly just because they are plastered on your TV.

Plenty of televangelists have been doing this for years. This is just the opposite, with more corporate commercials on a nationally broadcasted station, and a different ideology.

I get suckered in to watching it myself, for the entertainment value, of course. He tries to dis(respect) Bush, and dis Obama at the same time. Where the hell does that get anyone? In the middle?

At the end of the day, it's the same ole shite. shite smells.
