Jon Stewart at His Best

ClubHombre.com: -Off-Topic-: Politics: Jon Stewart at His Best

Stewart recently called out Democratic Congressman Steve Cohen for using a Goebbels comparison to Republicans while not a week earlier calling for more civil discourse.

Megyn Kelly and most of Fox News also blasted Cohen, but of course took it a step further when Kelly said FOX *DOES NOT* use Nazi comparisons on their network.

Of course, this is 100% inaccurate. Beck did it three hours later that same day.

Then Bill O'Reilly gets involved and it all goes downhill from there. Stewart does a wonderful job exposing their hypocrisy while using their own words against them.

Here is the first. The good part starts about 1:45 in.

He is the response after O'Reilly takes offense and Stewart's speeding analogy is spot on.

STEWART: So, my point was, contrary to what your colleague, Ms. Kelly, was suggesting, that Fox commentators do use Nazi analogies, and your point seemed to be, ‘Yeah, but I had a good reason.’ The problem with that is everyone thinks they have a good reason. Steve Cohen thought he had a good reason. It’s like speeding. I yelled at Steve Cohen for speeding. Megyn Kelly yelled at Steve Cohen for speeding, and then she said, ‘Good thing we don’t speed!’, and I said, ‘Look at all the [fucking] people speeding right there!’. And then, you said, ‘You took that out of context! I was late.’
